See, What Did I Tell You?
Oct. 30th, 2006 10:04 pmI said I'd have them done by the 30th, and look! They're done!
-D: Amazing! So you are good for something!-
One of these days I'm going to break down and hit you, you know.
-D: I've had a lot of practice dodging. *grin* Seriously, nice job.-
Thank you. For those wondering, I'm talking about my Halloween fanart and my
backtothefanfic challenge fic:
We're All Mad Here
Tea, Anyone?
-OD: *tentacles nodnod* Nice. I really don't look half bad in a hat.-
That you don't. :) And I also have a drabbles88 for you all:
20. Breakfast
Click! “And here’s Benny with the weather!”
Who cares about Benny and the weather? I can already tell it’s going to be nice out. It smells nice. No, I’m more interested in my master’s invention. I watch eagerly as the switches flip, turning on the TV, setting off the toaster, pouring the coffee –
Aha! And filling my dish! Sigmund’s dish too now. I bark to wake him and let him know breakfast is served. He meows back that he’ll be there in a minute. Cats. I still don’t quite understand them.
I happily jog to my bowl and start eating. Ahh, nice wet Kal-Kan – I’ve never liked the dry stuff. Tastes too much like that “cereal” Master eats. Sigmund doesn’t like it either. I’m glad neither Master or Mistress forces us to eat it, unlike some owners. My friend Benny in the park is always constipated from it.
Sigmund finally arrives as I finish off my meal. He nibbles at his food – he likes to take his time while eating. Me, I prefer to scarf it down. Leaves more time to beg for toast from Master.
Speaking of which, he’s taking his sweet time getting out of bed. Mistress too. I go over and bark a few times. Rise and shine, sleepyheads!
“Gypsy, turn the dog off.”
“He’s your dog. You turn him off.”
Not morning people, these two. I stretch up to see Master and Mistress curled up together under the covers. Damn, no place to poke my nose. Perhaps I should get Sigmund’s help?
Knock knock. “Hello?”
Or Marty. Marty’s good too. Though it’s a little early for him to be around. Master thinks so too – he looks very confused as he lifts his head. “Marty?”
“Yeah. I know it’s early, but my finals are at noon and I wanted to get in a little last minute cramming. Do you mind, or did you have something else planned?”
Master shakes his head, finally sitting up. “No, it’s all right. Just give me a moment to get clothes on.”
“Oh, Jesus, you just got up? I’m sorry, Doc.”
Master chuckles. “It’s okay, just – Gypsy and I had a late night.”
“Say no more, Doc. I’ll swing around the block a couple of times.” I hear his footsteps move away from the door. I’m glad he’s coming over, I like Marty.
Mistress yawns and sits up. “Well, guess we’d better get up. Good thing I’m on vacation right now.”
“Yes, I know. We’re up, Einstein, you can stop looking so reproachful.” They finally get out of bed, Mistress getting their night clothes while Master fetches their breakfast. Sigmund and I look at each other eagerly. Time for toast!
-VD: *chuckle* Sounds very dog-like to me. Einstein loves to beg for tidbits.-
-D: Yes, Gypsy says Sigmund comes running whenever she uses the can opener.-
:) I've always wanted to do a story from Einsten's point of view, and once again, drabbles88 allowed me to bring it to life. I made it a NonTrilogy just because that's the only version of the Browns I have with more than one pet at the moment. Plus I was in a NonTrilogy mood anyway.
-M: Wait, why am I still having finals?-
Still in college, remember? You're a science Marty.
-M: Oh yeah -- can't believe I forgot about Dr. McFly.-
-M2: I can't believe you actually did that with two of us.-
Three of you, technically -- you think I'm going to keep the Narbonic!Marty out of college forever?
-VD2: I would hope not! Secondary education is important.-
-VM: Still, finals in 1990?-
Well, you're not the ultragenius Doc is, let's face it. It generally takes a few years to get a Ph.D.
-VuM: Wait a minute, so how--
-OD: *tad embarrassed* My docorate is technically honorary, and it was rather FORCED on me -- I was willing to do the extra schooling, but everyone insisted that it was fine, they KNEW I could do the work. Part of me thinks they just wanted me out of there -- I was a rather odd student. . . .-
-VuM: *hugs* Well, hey, we all think you deserve it too. *Martys nodnod enthusiastically*-
Actual written writing continues to stall a bit -- though it's from procrastination, not lack of ideas, let me assure you.
-DW: *looks at plotbunnies* Trust us, we all knew that.-
-MF: Why DON'T you just write? You obviously enjoy it?-
I'm easily distracted. On work mornings, it's a bit easier to keep my focus. But I'm determined to at least get my other writing project off the ground tonight.
-D: "Time Mix-Up," I hope?-
Yup. As I've stated, I'm in a futurey mood.
Halloween is almost upon us! You boys get all the decorations put up?
-TD: Yup! I just plugged in all the lights.-
-OD: And the kids just finished with the pumpkins.-
Pumpkins?
-VD: We had the giant one last year, so we figured we'd have multiple ones this year. The kids carved scenes from the trilogy into them.-
-RPD: There's six altogether.-
Cool. How about candy and cupcakes?
-D: Candy's ready to go in a bowl, cupcakes are wrapped up securely in the fridge.-
And costumes?
-VD2: WELL taken care of, Vic. We'll be all ready to go tomorrow.-
-RPD: Will the Sims be as well?-
Yeah, I'll find a spare moment, don't worry. And since this computer runs Sims faster, it won't be too much of a rush. Whew.
-DW: So we're all ready! Just a matter of waiting for the guests now.-
-RPD: This should be interesting. My first Halloween here!-
-TD: Trust me, it's a celebration you should not miss.-
-D: As long as I don't get electrocuted by the main sign again.-
I had big circuit breakers and stuff installed in the lab -- you should be fine.
