Midnight, not a sound from the pavement, has the moon... oh wait, that's something else. What am I saying, I'm never asleep @ midnight; I'm a nethead! Well, I was asleep when...
Nftnat: Wha, what's going on here?
voice: You have some explaining to do.
Nftnat: Who's there? Who is it?
The fog clears to reveal...
Nftnat: Froggo? Aka?
Froggo: Like you still have the right to be on a first-name basis with us.
Aka: Yeah what the deelio with you, just leaving us hanging for how many months? No calls, no nothing.
Nftnat: I'm sorry.
Froggo: That's not good enough.
The scene fades; I'm tossing & turning. What're they so mad at me for, just because I didn't check in lately? Hey, you'd think they'd cut me some slack; B.B. wouldn't have gotten them together if it weren't for my encouragement. I'm the one who got Aka noticed by the others.
I don't believe this is happening, but I have to sign off until @ the earliest tomorrow morning, & I don't mean the wee smalls either. I will continue this. Cy'all. Good-night.
Nftnat: I mean haven't I done good here in the time I was here? And I'm coming back; doesn't that count for anything?
another voice: Oh, stop complaining.
I turn to see one of the senior couples, R6 & Lydia Karaoke network censor (all one name from what I hear).
Nftnat: What?
LK: Your whining, it's just sick!
Nftnat: Hey, I helped you two get together too. Remember my contributions to All That Glitters?
R6: Old news. what have you done for me lately, in the words of the song.
Nftnat: Janet Jackson, 1986.
R6: I'm not impressed.
Nftnat: Oh, bleep
both: We're going to get letters.
Nftnat: She's influencing you as much as you are her. And I thought couples weren't supposed to start taking on each other's qualities until they'd been married for decades.
LK: Married?!?
R6: Wha? well, that is...
Embarrassed, that couple also fades. But they're replaced by yet another couple.
Nftnat: B.B.? Charity's cousin?
cousin: Call me C.C.
Nftnat: You asked me not to.
cousin: Well then call me, come to think of it don't call me at all.
B.B.: You are in so much trouble.
Nftnat: Hey, I know I got the two of you together. I literally brought your girlfriend to you; if it weren't for me you'd be deaf by now from going head to head with Loud.
B.B.: Absence makes the heart grow angrier.
cousin: If you think we're angry, I don't think you want to go around the other writers.
Nftnat: Other writers?
The wherever-we-are turns bright, revealing Dante, robert, JusSonic, PokeJedServo, norung, Marie Antoinette, Hamiltonian, Lucky Bob 1985, froggofan, & anyone I've missed which is quite possible I've been gone so long.
Nftnat: Uh, hi everybody. norung, long time no see.
norung: Don't even try. At least I let 'em know I wouldn't be here.
Nftnat: Did I mention I loved the Not Happy Show?
norung: Flattery won't get you anywhere.
MA: We've been short a Southern historian lately.
Ham.: It's not been good; you, sir, are no gentleman.
Nftnat: Hey, it's not all my fault!
robert: We know it's not computer problems, THIS time. You kept up better when you did have computer problems. Was it because you didn't like my ending to Loud's Halloween Nightmare?
Nftnat: No no, I liked that. It was... (points @ JS & PJS) It was their fault! They turned me on to fanfiction.net & I've been reading reviewing & writing there ever since.
JS: Won't work. We've been adding fic there too & we still managed to keep up a presence here.
PJS: We were finally starting to include you in some of the stories too.
Nftnat: Yeah, I liked that Transformers thing you had us do. Did I mention I've been a TF fan for 20 years?
PJS (to JS): Pathetic, isn't it?
JS (to PJS): Yep, just digging himself in deeper. (to me) Besides, there was that Rugrats thing that YOU never finished! I had to come up with something & work around what you STILL haven't put in.
Nftnat: And who didn't continue that awards show, remember that B.B.? And I only got one review from here on my ff.n Rugrats fic. Did I mention I already put Angelica in? And I'll try to have some tension between her & Chuckie.
PJS: Tempting, but at least I actually reviewed your fic.
Nftnat: And I interviewed those Rugrats Go Hollywood things, all three of them!
PJS: And just how many Histeria fics have you reviewed?
froggofan: Um, am I interrupting anything here?
Nftnat: What is it?
froggofan: Well, I don't believe we've been introduced. Are you new here?
JS: It just seems that way, he's been gone without explanation so long. (to me) You're just lucky Froggo didn't tell his buddy.
robert: And even luckier that we didn't tell the cast who gave Loud that Nightmare.
MA: And what about those other sketches you were going to do here? That Adams & Jefferson fic, for example.
cousin: And your interview with me; you were supposed to have posted it by now. It's only been eight months since we did it.
Newkirk's Heroes: And what aout that Bill Straitman expose?
Nftnat: When did you get here?
NH: So it took a while; I had to route through Europe.
LB1985: Yes now!
Nftnat: Look, I really have been held back on ff.n by the Rugrats & the Hey Arnold gang.
norung: Oh, don't even try to curry favor with me by mentioning Hey Arnold!
Nftnat: Have you been on Kim's board lately? She's switched it you know, twice.
norung: And have you been here lately?
Nftnat: I'm here now!
norung: Too little, too late. I have a mind to revoke your membership here.
Nftnat: But I'm not registered!
norung: Even worse.
yet another voice: It's true.
Dante: Alright, who quoted Kurt Angle?
There stand the post-college Rugrats of my fic & the 13 year old Arnold's gang of my fic.
JS: Rugrats?
norung: Arnold, et cetera?
Helga: Doi!
Susie: He has been putting us together.
Lila: And I'm ever so certain he's been working ever so hard on these fics.
norung: Brainy, you tell us. What's he been doing?
Brainy: *wheeze*, uh, I don't know. Something.
authors: aaahhhh!!!!!
Then I wake up. I find a note.
Nftnat. Writers meeting at the studio. Call B.B. or robert for a ride, maybe R6. Don't be late. Dante.
Nftnat: Dante? Who's he? And I wonder why Mike wasn't in that dream. Oh well, time's a wasting.
Folks, I'm back, & I'm not leaving. Cy'all around.
I never knew that, (so no I'm not going to call you pahtetic.) I mean heck I was the one who made that shrine to "Transformers the Movie" on AL. Anyways I do welcome you back Nftnat and I hope we see you around some more.
Pokejedservo
(P.S: I'll try to review that part of your story that you mentioned about. Could you at least review either the original and/or "special" version of "The Toasty Histeria Picture Show"?)
LB1985 here! Great to see you again! I've been wondering where everyone went. You can usually find me hanging out at Toonzone nowadays...
Speaking of which, I had the crazy idea that I shared with B.B. about asking Toonzone if they would host Encyclopedia Histeria, what does everyone think? It might not happen, but it's something to think about!
Well, if you want to get EH archived at TZ, I'll do everything I can to help. Cute story above, by the way. I'm completely nuts about the HA movie coming out soon...did y'all see the latest news reports about the american student population being ignorant about history? Shoulda watched Histeria, kids...
Hey, norung! Good to see you again! I'm sure everyone here has missed you, cause I sure have. How's life?
Anyway, the idea I had for getting the Encyclopedia hosted by TZ just came to my mind one day after having waaaay too much coffee. I thought the site migh be Toonzone material, since it is just soooo good. And, of course, there are obvious advantages to having it done. (More visitors, more Histeria awareness, etc.) But then, I don't know if everyone shares that opinion. I was just asking to see what everyone thought about it, just on a whim. But now that you mention it, it could do well as a pretty serious suggestion....
Here is a different piece of trivia about the Hey Arnold movie.
May 12 2002, 10:03 AM
(And yes I too would like to see it.)
One of the reasons why this movie got a rating of PG is because of mild language, now I won't blame you for thinking "Who Cares?" but here is a mild but intresting novelty in this.
This is the first animated kid show-based movie with mild profanity since the 1986 cult classic "Transformers the Movie". However of course the chances of the HA movie to be as risque as that 1986 classic is slim, but it is intresting to see a movie to potentially take a step back into where that movie started. And seeing that you two are familiar with Transformers I'd thought you two would be the most appropiate to mention this to don't you think?
It'll probably be VERY cool if TZ could host EH (though I'm not sure if it'll happen or not but hey.)
And as for Norung well he does pop in every now & then and occasionally checks out the work we did in other sites. Sadly norung is usually too busy to do much of anything else. But hey we are glad that he still comes here.
