Pretzel, having felt rather lonely the past few hours, wandered around the Board, deftly dodging those of her fellow Boarders who had found their own form of entertainment as she walked. She had discarded the hula dancer outfit a while ago, and now was clad only in a few very wide silk ribbons that were strategically placed on her body. A spare one was tied rather jauntily around her head, serving no real purpose but to flutter prettily on occasion as Pretzel walked.
It took her some time, but eventually Pretzel found someone entirely unoccupied with anyone else; he was also fully dressed and still surrounded by his newbie gifts. Pretzel nodded in satisfaction. He would do wonderfully.
Untying the ribbon from around her head, Pretzel snuck up behind the unsuspecting newbie and quickly looped the ribbon over his head, using it as an impromptu blindfold. This took some skill, as Pretzel was about three inches shorter than Teddy, and barefoot to boot.
'Hey there,' Pretzel said with a grin, even though Teddy couldn't see her do so. 'You look like you're a bit lost. Need someone to show you around?'
Teddy, having found that Pretzel had neglected to restrain his hands in any manner, merely pushed the blindfold off his head and then turned around. His eyebrows rose at the sight of Pretzel's unconventional attire- the ribbons were a dark coppery color rather than the more traditional red one might expect, with three gear-shaped pins holding the entire ensemble together in key places -but then he shrugged. For all he knew, it was traditional to send a ribbon-clad woman as a guide for newbies, though he wasn't entirely sure about that.
'Sure,' Teddy replied. 'Although, I've got to ask, is this-' He gestured at the chaos going on in the Board at the moment, 'normal, or is there something going on?'
Pretzel blinked, and then looked around her. 'Oh, this?' She waved a hand in a dismissive gesture. 'Nah, this is a special occasion. As a matter of fact, why don't you follow me, and I can tell you just how special it really is.'
There was a dark chuckle from behind Pretzel, which made the petite Boarder turn around, the ends of her ribbons flaring out a bit as she did so. Behind her was a carbon copy of Teddy, though this one was sans goatee and was dressed in a stylish black suit. Teddy groaned.
'I thought I got rid of you a while ago,' he said in annoyance. His twin merely smirked.
'I'm your evil twin, Teddy,' evil!Teddy said. 'You can't get rid of me that easily.' He turned to Pretzel, who was looking mildly apprehensive. 'Now, about that tour?'
Pretzel looked from one Teddy to the other and then back again, shrugged, and then nodded. 'Sure, why not? The more the merrier,' she said, a few tantalizing thoughts running through her head that involved finding out just how many uses ribbons actually had. She picked up the one she had used as the temporary blindfold and then beckoned to the two Teddys. 'Follow me...'
"I had no idea ribbons had so many uses..." Teddy said wistfully as he walked out of the side-room, to which he had been led. Teddy's evil twin had stayed behind, to do lord-only-knows. Actually, Teddy knew exactly what he had stayed behind for. Some people were never satisfied... He wandered off, naked save for a piece of ribbon which he'd stolen from Pretzel. He wore it like a fig leaf. As he rounded a corner, he began to sing 'I'm in The Mood For Dancing'.
"Ah, I thought he'd never leave," Evil!Teddy said softly. "Now for the second course! Seconds!" He giggled maniacally, sauntered to his discarded suit, and started rummaging through the pockets. Pretzel pulled a face halfway between excitement and worry. He WAS evil, after all - there was no telling what he was looking for. She began to fiddle with a length of ribbon, discarded earlier, which was laying close-by.
"Aha!" Evil!Teddy shouted, seemingly at the top of his lungs. Pretzel jumped, fixed her eyes on Evil!Teddy, and involuntarily turned her expression to one of horror when he turned and revealed what he was holding.
"Jaffa cakes and... And a jar of mayonnaise?" She quickly regained her composure. "What are those for?"
"Use your imagination," Evil!Teddy cooed. Pretzel stared for a second, then grinned as Evil!Teddy started to walk towards her, condiment and snack food in hand.
"Oh, I see..."
Meta darted through the room, still dressed in the bizarre blue dress he had been made to wear.
"Oooh, room full of naked people." He paused for a moment, eyeing was was in Evil!Teddy's hands. "Jaffa cakes."
One rapid dash and the Jaffa cakes were in his own hands and he was fleeing the scene of his latest crime, laughing and eating jaffa cakes [never an easy thing to do.]
Teddy was on his fourth rendition of 'I'm in The Mood For Dancing' when a man in a blue dress ran past him, eating jaffa cakes while simultaneously laughing.
"Were those... Jaffa cakes?" Teddy mumbled to himself. Deciding that, yes, those were indeed jaffa cakes, Teddy bellowed at the strange cross-dressing man to "Stop! Now, damn it!" Meta turned and blew a raspberry at Teddy, spraying chunks of delicious jaffa cake.
He made off after Meta, eager to steal the jaffa cakes.
"Gimme 'em!"
Hear the shouts at him to stop Meta stuffed another Jaffa Cake into his mouth before reaching into the cleavage of his dress and turning on his i-pod, the Benny Hill theme tune blasting through the halls to make the perfect chase scene.
Teddy still hot on his heels Meta burst through a small cupboard, almost stepping on Aster and DS, both in various states of undress before finding the back door of the cupboard and continuing to flee.
