GALAXY GOSSIP
Welcome to the first edition of GALAXY GOSSIP.  What this really is is a conversation between any or all of the Scouts or other people.  They will tend to be silly and strange.  Maybe not quite humorous, but, we try.  We'll change it monthly or so, depending on schoolwork.  School!  ACK!  This month, the visual theme is "trees."  Don't ask us why.  We're not quite sure ourselves.  Love ya!  Kira and Celeste
One day in front of the computer...



Kira: So, we're posting Darien's birthday cards, right?

Celeste:  Duh...

K:  Just explaining to the few people reading this.

C:  Reading what?

K:  You
are reading this, right?
C:  Rriight.  I'm lost!  Whoosh! Watched that one go by--right over my head.

K:  Or next to it.

C:  No, I think it achieved the proper altitude...

K:  So, didja bring them?

C:  Bring what?

K:  THE CARDS!!!

C:  Oh, yeah, right here.

                  *ENTER MICHAEL*

Michael:  What are you doing?

C:  We're posting Darien's birthday cards on the website for everyone to see.

M:  Really?!  Darien's awesome!  He's the best!

K:  Okay....

M:  Can I watch?

K:   Whatever floats your boat, Milk Dud.

C:  Milk Dud?!

K:   A really icky candy with chocolate-covered malt stuff.

M:  Heyyy, I like Milk Duds--I think.  Does Darien like Milk Duds?

C:  Chocolate?  Yes.  Any type of chocolate.

M:  Mmmmm.  Milk Duds.

K:  HEEEEEEEYYYYYYY!

C:  WHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

K:  AM I TYPING OR ARE YOU?

C:  Oh...I will.  You get the photos together.

K:  I copy that, Bravo Leader.

M:  Puppy ears, you are crazy.

K:  Affirmative to both, Not-so-Bravo Leader Milk Dud.

C:  Whatever.  Michael, do you wanna help?  We could use all the help we can     get.

M:  Uh, no.  I've got video games to play, and Darien should be stopping by the arcade soon.

K:  And he calls
me crazy!  Never mind, I am crazy!  But Not-so-Leader is obsessed!
M:  Am not!

K:  Are too!

M:  Am not!

K:  Are too!

M:  Am not!

K:  Spaghetti!

M:  What?!

C:  This is all very fun and exciting, but Kira, we've got work to do.

K:  Fine.  Begone Bravo Dud.

M:  See ya later! 
        
                           *MICHAEL LEAVES*

K:  Soooo, photos... la la la.  I really like this one of Serena.

C:  Wow.  Yeah, me too.

K:  She's not klutzing out.  Where's the rest of them?

C:  Somewhere in my room, probably.

K:  I'll be back.

*KIRA LEAVES*

C:  Great.  All you readers are stuck here with me by myself.  It's not like I'm going to be doing a lot of talking, is it?  Oh wait!  I
am talking!!!  I guess it's not that boring after all... but it could be.  I'm not that interesting of a person by myself, but I suppose no one is... typing, typing, typing...
*CRASH*

  Yipe!  What was that?!

K:  HEY!  I FOUND YOUR BOOKCASE!  IT'S ON THE FLOOR!

C:  GOOD!  I THOUGHT I LOST IT! 
*sighs heavily*
 
I wonder how much of my room will be dismantled by the end of the day.  Now, how much stuff did she break... Why is it so quiet in there?  I don't like it.  *lightbulb falshes over head*  KIRA, GET OUT OF MY CLOSET!!!
K:  Nerts. 
*COMES BACK IN*  Okay!  Photos!  I found all but Lita and Phelan!
C:  Lita should be somewhere;  we'll find one later.  But
no one has a picture of Phelan.
K:  Now
he's obsessed. 
C:  With what?

K: 
*imitating Phelan* "I must protect Mina; no I'm not following you.  I must protect the Princess of Venus--"  Oh, darn, I just told!
C:  They already know.

K:  Okay... Ya know, these pictures are too big.  Can we cut them down to just heads after scanning? 

C:  Sure.

K:  Off with yer body!!!  Gwa ha ha!  By the way, I need computer control... unless
you want to scan...
C:  No, that's okay.  I'd just mess it up.

K:  Smurf!!!

C:  The little blue guys?

K:  What are you talking about?

C:  Never mind.  You're--

K:  CRAZY!!!

C:  No.  You're gonna scan those in, right?

K:  Affirmative.

C:  10-4.

K:  Pilot hat.  Okay, now to cut those photos down to size. 
*she procedes to do so and saves each one*  Ta-da!  Now we can post 'em!
C:  I gotta finish typing up the cards first
.
K:  You weren't done?  Fine...

C:  I had to do the font and color and stuff.

K:  Stuff?

C:  And things.

K:  Oh-ho-ho!  Of course.

*MICHAEL ENTERS*

K:  Milk Dud! 
(seeing him)
M:  Darien wasn't there.  Andrew says he's at work.

C:  I coulda told you that.  His shedule's on the fridge!

K:  Why didn't you know?  Geez...

M:  Wishful thinking.

*Kira and Celeste nod*

C:  Finished!  I'm done typing.  Kira, what'd you save the photos as?

K:  Am1, Lin1, Min1--

C:  I get the point.  Shortened names.

K:  For shortened photos!  Yes!  Brilliant...

M:  Pup, you are--

K and
C:  CRAZY!!!
C:  We've established that.  What else is new?

K:  New?  Well, someone is obsessed, and it isn't Phoebe!

M:  Why
would it be?
C:  Hey, I found Serena's pic, but MIna's is blank.

K:  What!? 
*takes over computer*  Oh no!  Amy!  Rei!  Mina!  Milk Dud!  Linn!  Me!  All gone!  NOOOOO!!!
C:  Rats.

K:  Well, let's just get Serena's pic up and save this baby.

*they put pic up*

C:  Um... It won't save.

K:  Ack!  Why not!  Stupid demonspawn!

C:  Heyy--

K:  Not you.  Computer.

M:  Me Tarzan.  You Jane.  She Puppy.  Ooh.

K:  Shut up BravoTarzanMilkLeader.

C:  She puppy... technically that's a b****.

K:  Hey!  No asterixes!

C:  You want me to say it then?

M:  Hey!  My watch glows in the dark.

K:  My watch is waterproof...

C:  My watch tells time.

K:  ...that is if I
had a watch.
C:  Well, then.  It's certainly waterproof!

M:  Hey guys, how do you save this?

K:  Click the "save" button, Tarzan Dud.

M:  Right. 
*goes to click*
K:  Except that it's not working.

M:  Just checking.

C:  So what are we going to do?

K:  Bash the computer screen in, jump around screaming and throw the entire heap off the balcony!!!

C:  Kira!  I've never seen you so angry before!

M:  Hey!  It worked!  I saved it!

K:  But we only have Serena's picture...

C:I guess it'll hafta do.  It's getting late.  We can keep those cards up all August.

K:  Who's next?

C:  My birthday.  September 4th.

K:  Oh.  Well, you're not helping with that!  I'll surprise you.

C:  Not much of a surprise.  I already know you're going to it.

K:  So did you enjoy reading our conversation?

M:  Who are you talking to?

C:  Be sure to tune in next time, for the next mind-numbing episode of "Galaxy Gossip"!  When you'll hear our mystery  guest say, "In the name of the Moon, I'll punish you!"

M:  What's going on?  Why are you quoting Sailor Moon's speeches?

K:  Shut up!  You gave it away!

C:  Twit.
