The faster loading treehouse! (Just for Maniac) by ebonezer

* The Real Me comes out of his room, face cleaned of engine grease and wearing a new suit. He straightens his tie. *

Oh, very well, Ebo. We'll make this our home, now.

Sparky, start on that breakfast!

Pardon me, but I have to go across dimensions to fetch some more Pepsimilk.

* The Real Me opens a hole in reality and steps through. The hole closes behind him. *

War is over? DARN?
Doesn't mean we shouldn't tool up and plan in case They try and invade us again.

.. and can someone come up w/ a catchier name for our treehouse. I've been trying to sew our name onto the flag, but my sewing needle always goes blunt as I start on the 'P' in "THE I AM NOT GOING TO BE DEP(RESSED ABOUT THE DELAY CLUB)"

Can't someone come up w/ a funky acronyum or summat? I'd try, but it's 9:15 am in the UK.. and I'm *supposed* to be working.

and YUM! pepsimilk.. I thought *I* was the only one who liked it... can whoever is in charge of stores make sure there's some left for me.. and transport some Reeces Pieces through the portal? You'll be my best friend.

Well, in this incarnation, how about the Faster Loading Treehouse, or FLT? Sounds like a cross between very fast travel and a sandwich, but hey.

Well, FLT sounds great! Although over time it will probably become the SLT.

Erm..guys? I'm just gonna go out for a second, I need to pop over to the other thread to pick something up. I won't be long...

* A bright spot of light appears on the ceiling of the communal room of the tree house. It expands, revealing a dark void surrounded by a ring of fire. Suddenly, a torrent of water spills into the room from this hole in reality. Along with it, The Real Me falls to the floor, being somewhat dazed by the impact. The Real Me is wearing a wetsuit and equipped with scuba gear. He is carrying a metallic cube about a foot-and-a-half (0.5 meter) on a side, with a handle on one face. The hole in reality closes. The Real Me quickly orients himself and gets himself to a sitting position, pulls off the diving mask, and replaces his glasses. *

My apologies for the mess. SPARKY! A mop! And pass around towels, please.

* Still sitting on the floor, The Real Me pulls the flippers from his feet and unbuckles the scuba tank. *

Well, that took longer than I expected. But I have returned with the Pepsimilk! And look!

* The Real Me reaches over to the metallic box and twists the handle. The box unfolds in an odd fashion, revealing numerous bottles of Pepsimilk and some small brightly-colored packets. He takes one of these, rips off an edge, and dumps the contents into his mouth. There is a crackling sound, and he mumbles: *

Pop-rocks! I loved these back when I was Ebo’s age, a couple of years ago… uh, I mean decades.

* After a short time, the crackling subsides. *

I would caution all of you about consuming Pop-rocks and Pepsimilk simultaneously. It is a potentially lethal combination, after all.

* The Real Me gets to his feet as Sparky begins mopping up. *

So, did anything interesting happen while I was gone? Did you invade any more threads, or perhaps…

* The Real Me looks about the tree house, and is startled. *

PSYCHIC RIVER! What happened to YOU? A terrible darning mishap? No, wait. I’ll just read the last couple of posts.

I hate to say this but American candy/sweets are rubbish. This isn't my UK bias, practically all of your food is better than ours (New York has effectively ruined all other pizzas for me) but when it comes to candy, you're just plain wrong. The chocolate is chalky and bitty, your sweets aren't even close to sweet and just no. No, no, no. This is why I brought my British sweets to the treehouse, so you wouldn't have to go on suffering.

Why, of course. In fact, you can have first pick of the new Cadbury's range. There's Flake (which is very flakey chocolate for those who don't know, infamous for disintegrating with your first bite), Snowflake (white flakey chocolate with a regular chocolate coating) and a coated Flake (flakey chocoate but encased in a layer of chocolate so it doesn't disintegrate). And a Caramel too.

Tell you what I miss and we should demand. Spira. It was a chocolate bar with rigid holes throughout, had a very good texture.

You could very well be right. I just assumed that when we moved threads, I left my knitting needles in the old thread....?

Does anybody specifically remember bringing the knitting needles with us when we moved threads? I guess that would settle it.

People think I'm a spy?

But this is so in character, everyone thought Simon was the spy on board Serenity in the pilot and it turned out to be someone else. Did they actually let River have knitting needles, sounds pretty dangerous to me. As long they're very blunt I guess.

Right, need to broaden your tastes a bit. Please sample some of the following:

Curly Wurly. Slightly hard and chewy caramel in interweaving long strands covered in chocolate. Very nice.

Fudge. Fudge but covered in chocolate.

Sherbet Dip. A small sachet of sherbet with a strawberry lolly to lick and dip in. Tasty.

Tablet. Traditional Scottish sweet. Sort of like fudge but much more rigid and sweeter.

Cadbury's Creme Eggs. The best sweet in the known universe. So good that they only distribute them for about 4 months of the year so the other sweets stand a chance. But you'll have to wait till after Christmas to try them.

I have thought on the matter.

I am quite certain that near the end of the "Not gonna be depressed about the delay club" thread, I returned from the Three Switches thread with some knitting needles and gave them to PsychicRiver. However, it is possible that PsychicRiver thought that I was giving a stick, a pistol, a puppy dog, or any number of other things. Now, I am not certain that these were PsychicRiver's needles. Also, I do not know if the needles made the trip from the "Not gonna be depressed" thread to this "Faster Loading Treehouse" thread.

As to a spy among us, that remains a frightening possibility.

However, I have come to the carefully reasoned conclusion that these British candies are SO tasty, that they prove beyond any doubt that SimonWho is a dear friend to be trusted with all of our secrets.

* The Real Me grabs up a couple more handfuls of British candies and returns to his room. As he reaches the door, he pauses. *

Say, SimonWho... Are you any relation to Cindy Lou Who, who was no more than two? Ummm... Well, she ought to be about forty, now. Have you been gone from Who-ville long? Did the Grinch backslide and become a true bastard again? And, most importantly, did Horton ever hear you?

Go, Ebo!

Hey, we could make a full-scale mock-up of Serenity out of cactus, scrub, and wobble-headed giesha dolls!

BTW, Ebo, there was an old cartoon you were half-remembering in some thread or another. I saw a DVD for it in Media Play today: "Wacky Races".
