because mun is winning all the irony awards

[puppetcrumpet]

[so there is this incredibly cool dude that just came in here. He wasn't visible for long, due to all of his ninja shit, but for the brief time he was visible he gives the mun a thumbs up.

That was Bro, whose infinite amounts of irony prevent him from doing the usual colored courier text spew that generally muses in his fandom do. Nope, no text from him, at least not right now. But he might consider it ironic if someone calls him out]

[Wow, that sure is an incredibly cool dude Bro just spotted there. Gosh, what a handsome and speedy fellow. So much swag could only be countered by Bro himself.

So Bro will dash right in here to give his other self a thumbs up and a wink that isn't visible too well behind his shades.]

[puppetcrumpet]

[was that another version of him that he just saw give himself a thumbs up? Yes, that did seem like the case. Especially with the impossible to see wink, or almost impossible to see wink.

Practitioners of the art of puppet ninjitsu were rare, he considered whether he wanted to test his own skills against another of himself. Let's test the water.

Flashstep- puppet- strider is gone]

[stridercentric]

[If Bro knows himself as well as he likes to think he does, he can only interpret that as a challenge. No Strider could ever ignore that. Shit's gonna go down! This showdown of ironic puppet ninjutsu will blow people's minds.

Flashstep- disappear- reappear on other side with Lil Cal- puppet jazzhands- gone again]

sorry for the delay, rl

[puppetcrumpet]

[that makes him laugh, well, quirk a smile since there is no sound. Lil Cal was really cool after all.

Flashstep - TV turns on - flashstep - A Muppet Christmas Carol DVD goes in - appears with the television remote and turns it on to the scene with Kermit and Tiny Tim and the penguins ice skating - and gone]

it's cool!

[stridercentric]

[Well. Well. That was a very interesting move, other self. How can he top this? Ahhh, he knows.

Flashstep- a couch appears- flashstep- a coffee table- flashstep- the limited hardcover edition of Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff on top of the coffee table- flashstep- Cal sitting on the couch, feet up on the coffee table, reading the limited hardcover edition of Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff- aaaaaaand gone.]

[puppetcrumpet]

[it almost looks like his room back home. But it's a little short on puppets. Excuse him for a moment while he flashsteps around the room correcting the lack of smuppets and other puppets. Including one leaning over the back of the couch with it's nose just touching Cal's shoulder]

[stridercentric]

[Bro needs to wait for his damned mun to stop laughing before he can make his next move. Let's see... Ahah.

Flashstep- a welcome mat on the floor- flashstep- a nude Muppet calendar and a sign that reads "Home Sweet Home" on the wall... He's forgetting something. What is he forget- Oh yes.

A couple of stray ninja stars sticking up from the couch cushions. That'd be painful for anyone who wants to sit down. Anyone untrained in the Strider ways, that is.]

[puppetcrumpet]

[another Bro needs to wait for his mun to also stop laughing.

It was truly starting to look like home, lets see what else was missing. Flashstep, years worth of Gamebro magazines. Flashstep, a certain comic depicting muppet baby snuff. And another flashstep, a webcam made out of Jigsaw.

To bad Dave wasn't available]

[You don't have to be visible for long in order to catch Doc Scratch's eye. His metaphorical eye. Since he doesn't have real ones. And also you don't really have to be visible at all, since Scratch is omniscient. At some point, this paragraph went wildly off-track and it should just be put out of its misery now.

In any case, it's always good to see Bro around. He's a very important person, after all.

Scratch normally doesn't enjoy being so... informal, but it only feels appropriate now: he gives Bro a thumbs-up.]

sorry for the delay, rl

[puppetcrumpet]

[and in a very meta-existential moment, the mun is reminded that their is another douchey character in this series, but today Scratch was kinda cool.

In a non-meta moment, Bro will give a nod to the cueball head and think his rad suit reminds him of someone very close, perhaps even hanging off his shoulder.]

no prob!

[docfoul]

[Of course it does.]

How is he doing, Mr. Strider?

[puppetcrumpet]

[he tilts his head to the side, the only clue that indicates he may be confused]

Who? [now he's not being an invisible ninja there really is something totally familiar about that suit and that appearance. It's almost like a toothy grin should be put on that cueball head]

[docfoul]

Cal. [He tips his head in the other puppet's general direction, more for effect than anything.]

[puppetcrumpet]

Cal's just peachy. [he grinned because now he knew who this cueball guy reminded him of]

[docfoul]

Excellent. I do enjoy knowing how my family is doing.

[puppetcrumpet]

Curious, how are you related to Cal? [he wasn't going to deny the relation, but it's weird that his favorite puppet, which had been with him his entire life, was somehow related to this guy]

[docfoul]

Are you familiar with the science of ectobiology?

[He asks out of courtesy and nothing else.]

[puppetcrumpet]

Something to do with that game and those meteors? [passing familiar]

[docfoul]

Precisely.

Your valued friend is my ectobiological father.

[puppetcrumpet]

So what is my pseudo-nephew's name. [pseudo-nephew, yep, because Cal might as well be his son]

[docfoul]

I'm afraid I can't tell you my name. You may call me Doc Scratch, though.

[puppetcrumpet]

Well Doc, I'm sure Cal would be very proud of his son. [smirk]
