Lips: Well, most of the movies that both groups own are out here.
Muppaphone: *reads a DVD cover* "Full House": Season 4? O_o We have this?

WhiteRabbit
08-20-2008, 11:36 PM
Ailie: *rummaging through her DVDs* Let's see...Beavis and Butthead or Tales from the Crypt? Ooh...South Park's in here too...the muppaphones can't watch it, though. It's a bit innappropriate.
Zoot: *facepalm* A bit?
AnimatedC9000
08-20-2008, 11:40 PM
Lips: *facepalm* This is getting us nowhere. Any ideas, Zoot?

AnimatedC9000
08-20-2008, 11:47 PM

Lips: *picks up his drawing pad and a pencil and starts to work on an imaginary drawing*
Caitlyn: Thank you. *steps inside the bus* *glances behind her, possibly checking to see if the keyboardist will follow her in*
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 12:31 AM
Zoot: *pretending to look surprised to see her* Oh, Cait! How was the..."errands?"
Ailie: *trying to look mellow*
Dr. Teeth: *climbs on after her*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 12:41 AM
Lips: *looking up from his "drawing"* Yeah, how were they?
Caitlyn: Well... *moving so that the group on the bus can actually see her* I wouldn't exactly call them "errands". More like... going out of our way to help society. *to Dr. Teeth* Isn't that right, dear?
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 12:46 AM
Zoot: *swallowing, trying not to seem freaked out* Oh...I uh, see...
Dr. Teeth: Ya said it, baby-- *noticing Ailie dressed up like Sally* O_O
Ailie: *gives him a small smile before lowering her long, doll-like eyelashes*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 12:50 AM
Lips: *ditto with him* Yeah... *hides back behind the drawing pad... six seats back from where he was*
Caitlyn: *glances at Dr. Teeth... then at Ailie* ... A-hem!
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 12:53 AM
Zoot: Well, that's good you had...uh, fun...
Dr. Teeth: *smiling dreamily back at the blonde* O_o *Cait knocks him out of his daze* Yes, sweet thang?
Ailie: *inclines her head*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 12:57 AM
Caitlyn: *about to reply to Dr. Teeth, but then hears Zoot* *to Dr. Teeth* One second, honey. *to the sax player* Oh, thank you. I'm sure you would've had fun, too.
Lips: Uh... yes, you're probably right... *shoots a nervous glance at Zoot*
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:00 AM
Zoot: *muttering under his breath* Yeah, right...
Dr. Teeth: *flashes Ailie a bright smile while Cait's distracted*
Ailie: *returns it, feeling her heart flutter*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:03 AM
Caitlyn: *thinks of something* ... Zoot, why do we never talk together anymore? I missed those times when we would just sit and talk. *starts to move towards the sleepy musician*
Lips: O_O *quickly draws a sign that flashes "Warning! Warning!"
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:06 AM
Zoot: *nodding at Lips* I'm not much of a talker to be honest, Cait... =P *casually takes Casino Royale out of the pile of DVDs on the floor and starts admiring the cover* <33333 Oh, Daniel...
Ailie: *motions for the good doctor to sit next to her* <333
Dr. Teeth: *mouthing 'In a sec...'*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:09 AM
Caitlyn: Well, why not? We used to have the most interesting conversations. *now standing between Zoot's seat and the aisle*
Lips: *quietly to self* O_O He's gonna die...
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:11 AM
Zoot: Ha! Like your toe fungus? =P
Ailie: O_O ...cool...
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:13 AM
Caitlyn: I don't know what on earth you're talking about! I was thinking about the time we talked about... geraniums.
Lips: *quietly to self* If he keeps going on like this...
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:17 AM
Zoot: *smirking* That's an interesting conversation? =P Whatever you say...
Dr. Teeth: *sneaks past the others to sit beside Ailie*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:19 AM
Caitlyn: *sits down beside him* Yes... whatever you say... *tilts his hat downward and smirks*
Lips: *to self* We're doomed!
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:21 AM
Zoot: Hey! Hey! Back off, sister! Or you'll feel the wrath of James Bond! *whacks her with the DVD case*
Dr. Teeth: Zoot! O_o *mildly concerned...sort of*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:24 AM
Caitlyn: X_x ... *voice kind of sounding like her regular voice* Ow... *rubs her head* What the hey? *notices Zoot's hat* ... *fixes it back to where it was* There you go! ^_^ *pats the sax player on the head*
Lips: O_o
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:28 AM
Zoot: That's what I thought. =P Now, beat it!
Ailie: *"accidently" taking Dr. Teeth's hand*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:30 AM
Caitlyn: Zoot... why are you being mean to me? Was it something I did? *concerned*
Marvin: *sits up and moans* Where am I...?
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:32 AM
Zoot: What, having a blood withdrawal? =/ *hands her a vial from under the seat that will turn her sinister again*
Dr. Teeth: *stroking Ailie's wrist*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:35 AM
Caitlyn: Blood with...drawl? O_o *confused* ... uh... Should I drink this?
Lips: *switching between Cait and Zoot 'n Ailie and Dr. Teeth* O_o
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:37 AM
Zoot: *nods, looking slightly annoyed*
Ailie: *noticing Lips staring and grimaces* *gives him a look that says, 'Keep her distracted, encourage her to drink it...'*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:47 AM
Caitlyn: *takes a few deep breaths in and out*
Lips: *nods* *moves to the seat in front of Zoot & Cait*
Caitlyn: *closes her eyes and drinks the vial* *opens her eyes after she's finished drinking* *blinks, and her eyes change from dark brown to red again* *notices Zoot next to her* *in her vampiric voice* Baby... you look so tense... Let me take care of that... *starts massaging Zoot's shoulders*
Lips: *mouth falls open gracefully*
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:51 AM
Zoot: *winces as her hands are ice cold* Yeah...um, I'm fine now... *glances over at Lips, anxiously*
Dr. Teeth: *running his long fingers down "Sally's" arm*
Ailie: *smiles contentedly*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 01:53 AM
Lips: *mouths "I think she might bite you!"* O_O
Caitlyn: *tilts Zoot's hat back down and kisses his cheek*
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 01:57 AM
Zoot: *cringes since her lips are even colder* Uh...Lydia, what about your boyfriend? XP
Ailie: *giggling softly as Dr. Teeth kisses up her arm* <33
Zoot: O_O
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 02:02 AM
Lips: -_- There's something about love triangles that I dislike.
Caitlyn: *to the trumpet player* Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like a turn? *bats her eyes at him*
Lips: O_O *gulps* ... Er...no, not right now... *ahem* ... Carry on... *trying to look away from her*
Caitlyn: *hardly audible* *to Zoot* Whisper sweet nothings into my ear. *places her hand on his cheek*
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 02:07 AM
Zoot: *gets an idea* Okay... *takes a swig of soda and then belches, 'Sweet noth-ings!' into her ear*
Ailie: *snickers and applauds*

AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 02:23 AM
Caitlyn: Where is Lips? And why do ya have ta pull him into the argument? >_>
Lips: *thinking "Shouldn't interrupt, shouldn't interrupt, shouldn't interrupt..." (it repeats over and over)*
WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 02:25 AM
Zoot: Because you're always going after me...it's not fair and he's walking over to Chucky and Tiffany back there. =/
Ailie: O_O *trying to look innocent*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 02:28 AM
Lips: *ears pick up the last name that Zoot said and he stops dead in his tracks* Tiffany.. *sighs and hangs his head*
Caitlyn: ... what's his problem?

WhiteRabbit
08-21-2008, 02:39 AM
Ailie: O_O *softly* Um...no...
Dr. Teeth: *sits up, looking a little oppressed*
AnimatedC9000
08-21-2008, 02:42 AM
Caitlyn: Good. *takes Dr. Teeth's arm* We're leaving. *drags him along to the front of the bus*
Lips: *still in the corner* Tiffany...
Caitlyn: *no sooner does she step out then she is pelted by a barricade of acorns* *falls to the ground after one too many bumps* X_X

Tony: You guys finished packing?
Newsie: Yeah.
Crazy Harry: Yeah.
Lefty comes out of his closet, carrying two very large suitcases.
Lefty: Yeah.
Tony: Hang on. Where did you get those bags? You didn't have them when you moved in.
Lefty: Dey fell off da truck.
Tony: What's in them?
Lefty: My stuff.
Tony: You don't have a lot of stuff, besides Mr. Turtle, your hammock and your comic books.
Lefty: Don' worry about it.
Tony: What are in the bags, Lefty?
Lefty: I said don' worry about it! Besides...(gestures toward the ceiling)
Tony: The ceiling?
Lefty: Ha! I finally got youse!
Tony: Actually you didn't. I knew perfectly well you were referring to Alex.
Lefty: Oh...
Tony (sighs, and looks at trapdoor longingly) I'm going to miss the two of us running up and down the ladder to see each other...
Newsie: Aw, don't worry Tommy, we'll be back here in no time!
Tony: Yeah...I mean, obviously I'll continue to keep in touch with her as usual...but this trapdoor Biff and Sully installed so we could be closer to each other was something really special, you know?
Lefty plays an invisible violin.
Lefty: Yer breakin' my heart...
Crazy Harry grabs Lefty from behind, and puts him in a tight headlock.
Lefty: 'Ey! Watch da coat!
Newsie walks up to Lefty and gives him a two-finger poke in the eyes, a la the Three Stooges; then, he punches Lefty in the stomach. When Lefty reacts, Newsie holds out his fist, and bonks Lefty on the head. Crazy Harry loosens his grip, and Lefty slides to the floor.
Newsie: Leave Romeo alone.
Tony: Ah Newsie...I'm gonna miss your sudden violent impulses.
Newsie: Stop it Tommy...you're gonna make me cry...
Tony: So...you guys are sure you don't want to come with me?
Newsie: Nah. I think I'll go back home. I haven't been there since I moved into these dorms. I really should water the plants...and Crazy Harry is going...wherever Crazy Harry goes...and Lefty--
Mr. Turtle: Ugh. I'm afraid I will inadvertently drop several I.Q. points, as I shall be joining Mr. Tact at his decrepit hovel on the waterfront.
Tony: Well...I guess you guys are all set then.
Lefty: ...ooooooooowwwwww...

<Lisa, Chef, Rowlf, and Robin are all on the roof, pulling a rope-- with some difficulty-- that's attached to a pulley and, presumably, to some other heavy object that is not on the roof>
Lisa: <Yawns> WHY are we... DOING this when I'm... SLEEP deprived?
Rowlf: You're ALWAYS sleep deprived.
Lisa: ...Oh yeah. <Groans, pulling>
Chef: Un de booooding koes de toody ur morrow.

Rowlf: After we finish moving up here.
Lisa: Nooo... That's reading time for the homework for my next class...
Rowlf: Oh. Well then, after your next class.
Lisa: Nooo... That's go-buy-cuticle-clippers time.
Rowlf: Then after that?
Lisa: Shower time.
Rowlf: ...Lisa?
Lisa: Uh-huh?
Rowlf: There is no nap time.
Lisa: Ohhh. ...No spoon, either. ...And the rum's gone. ...When's bed time?
Rowlf: ...Just keep pulling.
Lisa: <Groans>
<Finally, Rowlf's piano appears at the other end of the rope and, with some difficulty, it is maneuvered onto the roof>
Rowlf: Anything else in the room?
Lisa: ...Um... <Looks at piles of stuff on the roof> ...I think we left some air in there.
Rowlf: <Double-take>
Lisa: <Scratches head> But I don't think they'll mind too much...
Rowlf: <shakes head> Chef, can you think of anything we forgot?

Rowlf: He didn't fall off the roof, did he?

Rowlf: That's bad.
Lisa: Robin?
Chef: Teeeeeenseeeee...
Rowlf: Robin?
Lisa: Roooobiiin...

*Downstairs...

Boober: Eh, you're forgiven. The room's all clean and everything's packed. We're ready to go.
Kim: Thanks, Boober. Okay everyone, into the car. Gillis, we'll see you at my place in a few days?
Boober: If he doesn't get detoured by the T. Matthew Fraggle Room again.
Gillis: *ignoring Boober* Of course.
Kim: Great. Give my regards to the Minstrels!

Hello from the MC Dorms management team. Welcome to the annual shake-up period. Beginning today, Monday August 25 2008, we will commence accepting applications for residency. Please bear in mind that this means only your sending in the filled-out form stating which Muppet(s) and which room you would prefer to have should your submission be approved. As for approval of your form, admitting you to move into the dorms, that is up to a select group of individuals who comprise the review committee, six people who have been long-standing members of the dorms and who I trust their judgment on allowing all those who enter through our doors.
Now then, for the application itself, please fill out the following information.
1 First Name.
2 Muppet Central User Name.
3 Room Number.
Room 1 is unavailable, as that's mine.
Also, for the time being, you may choose only from Rooms #2 through 29, as we'd opt to keep the upper floors emptied should further applicants require such accomodations.
4 Muppet Roommate(s).
You may choose to have up to five (5) Muppets as roommates, though you don't "have" to have all five. If you prefer having just three,that's perfectly fine.
Pets, favorite toys/dolls and smallerish characters like Muppaphones do not count towards this total.
You may have a fanfic character you yourself created and have featured in a fanfic of your own publication at Muppet Central's FanFiction & FanArt section, so long as you have at least one (1) other actual Muppet roommate.
5 Birthdays.
Please provide the birthday for each member in your party, including yourself.
If you don't know your particular Muppets' birthday:
a. Check Muppet Wiki for that particular character's birthday.
b. If no birthdate is provided for said character, you may then use either:
1 The character's first on air dated appearance, or
2 That particular character's Muppeteer performer's birthday.
Please send your applications to my online address, as my PM inbox is pretty filled up. Send those forms to countcastle@gmail.com, and title them "Muppet Dorms Application".
The dorms thread will also be closed for a two-week period as we sort the process of renewal, in an effort to minimize any erm unpleasantness which may have arisen recently. We will reopen our doors, and the thread, on Monday September 8 2008. This message will also be sent to everyone currently part of the last version of last term's roster. If you do not receive a copy, as it may bounce back per my messaging service's inability to deliver it, please refer back to this post. Rules of dorms' gameplay will be posted then.
Thank you for understanding and have a good day.

Apologies to all for the delay in getting the dorms reopened.
Welcome to the first day of the dorms 4th anniversary. There's lots to get to and we'll have a celebratory party on the weekend.
First things first... The review committee has been finalized, and there is a new position here. Beth will be serving as Assistant Manager, so if you can't contact me or I can't get here, please direct your questions to her as she'll help as best she can until I am able to get to the dorms.
Secondly, in order to better serve the dorms, a separate thread will be created and updated periodically, containing the full roster and birthday list of all residents for easier referral. Also, I think this will help potential new applicants check who's still available for roommate status by taking a quick glance through the first list. Please keep in mind that the review team must approve your application before moving in, which might take some time so we ask your patience while your particular case is processed.
You'll notice that we're trying to fill up the first two bottom floors before assigning any rooms on the upper two floors, this is to make sure that everybody's next to each other and the people participating at the dorms will do so.
Thirdly, here are the new rules for the dorms.
A. Application Information.
Please fill out the following form.
1 First Name: .
2 User Name: .
3 Room Number: , from those which are still vacant at the time of application.
4 Muppet Roommate(s): .
5 Birthday: (Please provide the birthdate for each member in your party, including yourself.
Check Muppet Wiki for character birthdays.
If you can't find a birthday for your Muppet roommates, then we will accept:
a. The date of their first on-screen appearance, or
b. The birthdate of that respective Muppet's main performing Muppeteer.
6 Valid working email address, so we can contact you to inform you of dorm-wide events, like approval of your application.
Please send your submissions and/or questions to me via the forum's Emailer or my own address if you happen to have it.
B. Roommates.
The one rule we insist upon here at the MC Dorms when choosing a roommate...
You can have any Muppet character you want, save obvious ineligible choices like baby Muppets, so long that character or characters haven't been taken by anyone else.
*See the Muppet Dorms Register thread.
Additionally, to save on headaches...
1 Number of Roommates.
From now on, the limit of roommates one person can have is a total of five (5) roommates. Just because you can have five roomies doesn't necessarily mean that you have to have five roomies. You can have just two or three or four. It's up to you guys when filling out the forms.
2 Roommate Choices.
Yes, you can decide to change your roommates if you arrive at that decision. However, I would ask that you think long and hard before submitting any changes to your current party's roster. The roommates you choose are the characters others will associate with you, and I would prefer to avoid another "revolving room" situation like what happened in previous years.
C. Participation.
The best example of this I can think of is SkeeterMuppet, known to us as Kim. You don't have to plugged in here every single moment, every single day. You don't have to have every single other post be one of yours in the thread. However, there was still a level of postage maintained that might not be as frequent as others, but it demonstrated participation in the dorms whether in individual or dorm-wide events. The importance of understanding this is something which I believe all should keep in mind when participating as part of the MC Dorms.
D. Review Committee.
This group consists of some of the long-time dorm/forum members who have earned my infinite trust and judgment when review potential applicants for residency at the dorms. Currently, the team of six will report their decisions to Beth, who will have a tiebreaker vote if necessary, and will in turn report to me so I can then notify the applicant of their decision. Hopefully, in October, that team will expand to eight, giving Beth a full vote and transfering tiebreaker duties to myself.
E. Dorm Life.
Once you become part of the dorms, you'll be expected to:
1 Provide a room layout, but only if you truly wish to do so to let others know about how you have your particular little domains arranged, according to your own and your roommates' tastes.
2 Interact normally/naturally, both with your own roomies and with others should you see them hanging out or engaged in dorm activities. Please try to keep your characters in character.
3 The only times you may control others' roomates include:
a. Grand musical numbers, giving lines to different people.
b. When someone will be gone and asks another resident to look after them in their absence.
If you have not been approved as a registered resident of the dorms, then please do not post in the thread until your case has been resolved. Contact me first instead.
These are the new rules, learn 'em, love 'em, live 'em.

(A procession of two bicycles, a motor scooter and a rickshaw comes up the street toward the dorms, laden down with furniture, personal effects and miscellaneous stuff. Nora and Scooter are on the bikes, Erin rides the motor scooter and Beige and Storyteller are perched atop the pile in the rickshaw.)
Scooter and Beige: All the leaves are brown...
Erin, Nora and Storyteller: (All the leaves are brown...)

Nora: (dismounting) I'll run in and get us the keys.
Scooter: (vectoring E. up to curb) A little more...little more, watch the fire hydrant...
Storyteller: Careful, we're about to lose something off the back...
Beige: Not to worry, I tied those knots good and tight...(a box of books goes crashing off) Aw, nuts, shoulda used a sheet bend instead of a clove hitch.

*a light blue mini-van comes speeding into the parking lot. "Can You Picture That?" is playing on the music system (loudly, I might add), and the current driver somehow believes that he is a racecar driver. This worries several of the passengers.*
Lips: Nononono, Digit, goleft, goleft, goleft!
Digit: *at the wheel* And here we go, the final lap! And Michael Jordan races onto the track! *makes a sharp left turn*
*... sending the passengers to the left side of the car*
Trumpet Girl: *to Caitlyn* *shouting* Remind me why you invited him again!
Caitlyn: *sitting in the back seat with the Muppaphones, rocking out to the music and not hearing TG* WOO-HOOOOOO! ! !
*Digit drives up a ramp, sending the car flying*
*after a few turns, the van lands in a parking space, looking like a total wreck*
*fortunately, the passengers and their things all emerged unharmed*
Marvin: *exits the van, spinning (as per usual)* Ole ole ole! T'ank you, t'ank you, and t'ank you!
Annie Sue: *straightening out her dress*
Lips: *somehow manages to get the trunk opened*
Caitlyn: *climbs out the back, knocking out a variety of items on her way out* So, who's getting the keys?

Tony and Newsie carry a babbling, incoherent Lefty into room #9. Crazy Harry follows, holding Mr. Turtle.
Tony: Lefty, Lefty, look! We're home! We're home again!
Lefty: Buuuurabbbbarrrgghhhhhhhhfarhnekettoooobbbblob...
Tony: Look! There's Mr. Hammock! And your pile of Mr. Cracked magazines! And best of all...(gasps)...Mr. Mason Jar full of Nickels!
Crazy Harry grabs the jar, and shakes it.
Lefty immediately springs to life.
Lefty: My babies! 'Ey! What are youse crum-bums doin' wit da carryin'? Put me down! Put me down now!
Tony and Newsie look at each other; they nod, and let go of Lefty, who crashes to the floor.
Lefty: Oof! Ya lousy mooks!
Lefty crawls to Crazy Harry and grabs his jar.
Lefty: Gimme dat! (to nickels) Daddy's home!
Crazy Harry unceremoniously drops Mr. Turtle into his tank.
Mr. Turtle: Thank you very bloody much! After weeks of freedom, I am so delighted to be back in this prison! Degrading! I used to be chauffered in the finest cars...sailed on the most expensive yachts...flew in the fastest jet planes...and now I'm confined to these bloody four walls...rot!
Tony: Well, I don't know about you guys...but it's great to be back!
Tony jumps onto his bed, and immediately chokes in a cloud of dust.
Tony: Coughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcough...
Newsie: Nice going...Pigpen! Heh heh heh!
Crazy Harry elbows Newsie in the stomach.
Newsie: Oof!

Beige: (singing, and unpacking rock fountain) Be it ever so humble, there's no place like...whoa! Did you see that blue van go careening past?
Storyteller: (sorting through box of linens) No, I just heard the brakes. Scooter, can you unpack that box of kitchen utensils as soon as you're done over there?
Scooter: (lugging boxes into left-hand room) In a minute - Erin, do you want your teapot collection in your room or the kitchen?
Erin: (struggling through door) Put them in my room while I decide what to do with them. Someone want to help me get my futon in here?
Nora: (pushing on rolled-up futon) One...two...three...ooof! (the two stumble through door) Hey, Storyteller, do you know where my Russian nesting dolls got to?
Storyteller: In the box marked "Assorted Odds and Ends." And has anyone seen my box of epics?
Beige: I think it's still in the rickshaw. Does anyone have a wrench I can borrow?
Scooter: Try the bathroom. Nora, does this map of Europe belong to you or Erin?
Erin: That's mine. And has the stereo been brought in yet?
(this continues in similar fashion for the next hour or two)
Storyteller: Okay, people, let's call things for a halt and have some dinner. There's a pot of stew on the stove.

Storyteller: (setting up hut) So how's everything going?
Scooter: Well, room's kind of a mess at the moment...
Beige: Yeah, and the World's Oldest Fraggle was just mildly stern.
Nora: But here's what we're hoping the room's going to look like.
Erin: Once everything's been cleared away and painted and stuff.
The room has a common room, a kitchen/dining area, a bathroom and two double rooms.
Common room: Same as the last time, with an old sofa, an armchair and a few beanbag chairs grouped around the television and the stereo. The stereo looks like a Victrola, and in addition to the turntable, it has a tape deck, CD player, MP3 jack and AM/FM setting, so we're all covered. Walls are cream with sepia trim, there are a few photos and paintings hanging up, and there are a few worn rugs on the floor. Off to one side sits Storyteller's hut, a mossy rock structure with a few palm trees out front.
Kitchen: Cream walls with green trim, and terra-cotta floor. In the center is a wrought iron table with five chairs grouped around it, and someone has set a bowl of gourds and maize in the middle of the table. The kitchen is fitted out with the necessary implements, and on the counter are a coffee maker and a samovar, along with a large round blue teapot.
Bathroom: Pale aqua blue walls and green tile flooring. Storyteller has hung a few floral prints on the walls, alongside some art-deco pictures belonging to Erin, and a few aromatherapy candles sit on one edge of the tub.
Erin and Nora's room: Light blue walls with dark blue trim, and a violet carpet. On one side is Nora's white wrought-iron daybed, made up with lilac linens and a puffy periwinkle comforter, as well as a white wooden dresser with lilacs stenciled on it. Next to the daybed is a small bookcase, with the aforementioned Russian nesting dolls perched on top, and next to that is a desk with Nora's computer and a few books on it. Nora has also hung some drawings of famous authors and artists on her wall. On the other side, Erin's futon is set up and covered with a number of brightly-colored quilts and throw pillows (almost none of which match, of course), and next to the futon is an antique dresser with a lava lamp, a few teapots, some photos and several other things on top. A bookcase has books spilling out of it, and there is a small lap desk for Erin to use with her computer. On the walls are various posters, prints by Van Gogh, Dali and Picasso, and the aforementioned map of Europe.
Scooter and Beige's room: Light yellow walls with orange trim, and a dark green carpet. On one side is Scooter's bed, made up with a green and blue quilt. Next to the bed is the desk, containing Scooter's computer, telescope, books and R2-D2 coin bank, and on the walls are movie posters and photos of TMS guest stars. Scooter's guitar leans up against the bed, and the top of Scooter's dresser contains other photos and memorabilia. On the other side of the room is Beige's bed, made to look like a nook in a cave; its posts are carved to look like stalactites and stalagmites, and it is covered with a bright blue blanket. On the night table, Beige has set up his rock fountain, and in one corner sits a statue of some hero from ancient Cave Fraggle lore. Beige also has photos of Fraggles from the Cave and the Rock, a few books and a small shelf containing various Fraggle artifacts.

Lisa: <on the roof, of course, perched on balance ball, hunched over laptop> <mumbling to self> Infinity... attempt to convey infinity... scale, circle limit... words...
Rowlf: Let's tie the rope around the ball. We'll get HER downstairs first, and start moving our stuff in.
Robin: ...Won't she NOTICE, if we pick her up?
Lisa: <still mumbling> This paragraph... Gargh, lousy order... flow better... <sigh> two page... Right, so--varied scale...

Rowlf: Alright, let's hook the ropes up around the ball. Robin?
Robin: Who's Betty?
Rowlf: Who-- Oh. Um... I dunno. But try not to get lost under the ropes this time, okay?
Robin: Okay!
Chef: Un ya heeer de ropey! <hooks rope--attached to large crane--around Lisa's ball... while she's still sitting on it>
Lisa: <mumbles> Metamorphosis... dang s'big... Transformed tilings... erm...
Rowlf: <starts pulling on rope, hoisting ball, Lisa, and laptop into the air above the roof> Little help here?
Robin: I'll help! <Starts pulling on the rope>
Rowlf: Just don't get UNDER the rope.
Chef: Un, de moovin' nuf de rooov. <Turns crane, so that Lisa, ball, and laptop are suspended above the ground>
Lisa: <Sigh> <mumbles> Rewrite the whole paragraph... ga... just describe... might get two pages...

Robin: ...Is this kinda dangerous?

Rowlf: ...I'll take that bet. Let's unhook the ropes and get the rest of the stuff down.
Chef: <Unhooks the rope from Lisa's ball, shaking his head at her>
Robin: I didn't get lost under the rope this time!
Rowlf: Don't jinx it. Still gotta get the piano down.
Robin: Oh yeah...

As a car pulls up we can hear a honker honking his nose. With that a honker, two monsters hop out of the car. As they get out a chubby kinda tall guy gets out.
Thanks again Homer for being my horn. I've been needing to get it fixed but haven't had time yet.
Homer Honker: Honk honk honk honk. Honk!
Your welcome too.
Herry: Do you really understand him?
Yea. I took a corse in Honker 101. It's a class that Gordon has been giving these last few months.

Hi guys! Gee, it's great to be back! I hope I didn't keep you waiting; I didn't know the dorms had opened again.

Wembley: Yep, that's what we did alright!
*Sure enough, the fraggles' bunkbed is set up just a few feet from the larger, human-sized bed against the wall. Next to the bunkbed, Gobo's guitar stands propped up against the wall, partially covering the fraggle hole. At the foot of my bed is a burough, the bottom two drawers of which are already filled with the fraggles' personal effects. I start unpacking, putting my own smaller personal items in the top two drawers. On the top, I place a stereo similar to Erin's, but without the MP3 attachment. Beside that is a small stack of CDs. Next to that is a closet, where I hang my larger items of clothing, and place my shoes. Across from this is a desk, with a computer already hooked up with a scanner and printer beside it.*
Phew, done at last! Now I'm hungry.
Wembley: Yeah, me too!
How about going to Everybody eats? It'll be good to go there again!
Wembley: Yeah, that sounds fun!
Gobo: Yeah, and since we're going there, why don't we see if anyone else would like to go too?
Good idea! *Goes to door, and yells out into the hallway. Anywhere else I wouldn't do it, but I figure here it's perfectly acceptable.* Hey, me and the fraggles are goin' out to Everybody eats! Anyone wanna come?

The set-up of Room #19 is unchanged from last semester. The room's the standard rectangular shape of any other dorm room. On the right side of the room as you enter are Tosh, Mimzy and Boober's beds; Mimzy and Tosh have a bunk bed while Boober has a platform (that's non-converting) futon. Tosh still has the top bunk while Mimzy's got the bottom bunk. Tosh has a plum and olive-green quilt and cream-colored sheets on her bed, and she still has the curtain around her bunk. Her pillows have plum-colored cases. Mimzy has lavender sheets and a pink and white quilt on her bed. In between the girls' bunk and Boober's bed is a chest of drawers that is the perfect height for two Fraggles. The top two drawers are for Tosh and Mimzy's things, like their shared Fraggle pebble collection. The bottom drawers are Boober's and hold all of his cleaning and laundry supplies. Boober has a brown blanket and cream-colored sheets on his bed, and tan pillowcases on his pillows. On the wall near his bed is a peg where he can hang his hat and his scarf when he goes to bed.
The left side of the room is the "grown-ups'" side, or Gillis and Kim's side. The bed, which is near the closet, is a loft-style bed. This is Kim's bed; it has a quilt of lavender, green and white squares with flowers embroidered over them, purple sheets and purple cases on her pillows. At the head of the bed is a taller dresser that's shared by Kim and Gillis, and the top of which Kim uses for a nightstand. Underneath Kim's bed are the TV/VCR and DVD player, and a smaller bed belonging to Gillis. Gillis' bed has white sheets and an olive-green blanket. The TV/VCR and DVD player sit on a wooden TV stand that has a cabinet on the bottom. Inside is their DVD and VHS collection, including Seasons 1, 2 and 3 of TMS, season 1 through 3 of Ghost Hunters, Kim's Marx Brothers collection and her Sherlock Holmes video library. Beside the TV is a small refrigerator filled with pop, fruit juice, water and extra Doozer sticks (which taste just as good cold).
On the wall opposite the door is a desk that is roughly 3/4 the length of the wall. Above the desk are bookshelves the same length as the desk. On those shelves is Kim's book collection, including her Sherlock Holmes library and her copies of Harpo Speaks! Of Muppets and Men and Jim Henson: The Works. Also on the shelves are photographs of the roomies' friends and family - the rest of the Fraggle Five for Boober and Tosh, the Minstrels for Gillis (one group shot, and an individual shot of Brio), and one of former roomie Betty Lou. On one end of the desk is the computer; the other end is left empty in case someone wants to do some writing or drawing. School supplies are kept in the desk drawers. The remaining quarter of the wall is a window.
The closet is on the same wall as the door, and like last year is divided in half. One half is for clothing - Tosh's dresses, Mimzy's sweaters, Gillis' jackets and Kim's wardrobe. On the floor is the laundry basket and the hamper. On the shelf above are Kim's shower caddy and the room's first-aid kit (always kept stocked by Boober), not to mention extra cleaning supplies. There is also a screen to be used for privacy when changing your clothes. The other half of the closet belongs to Tosh's Beast. He has a large dog bed with a yellow blanket and a fluffy pillow. At night (or when the roomies have to go somewhere without him), his rope attaches to a hook on the wall. Tosh keeps extra rope in one of her dresser drawers. Also on the floor of Beast's side of the closet are various toys for him to play with.
Gillis: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Looks like the ol' Room 19 to me.

In the hallway, a young woman can be seen dragging suitcases backwards down the hall towards room #16. She stops for a moment to rest her arms and wipe off her forehead, then shouts off to her muppet roomies, who are taking their sweet time to help her with the bags.
Pepper: Will you two quit canoodling and please give me a hand? I'll just leave these here if you don't!
Floyd: We just got here, Pepper, let's take it easy!
Janice: Like, yeah, we're excited to find the band members!
Pepper: I understand that, but can we please get in the door first? You can even invite them over for jelly, or whatever it is that you wanted to do.
Floyd: Do you mean for a "jam"? Groovy! I'll spread the word.
Janice: And I'll help you set up! *in a sing-song voice* I can't wait to be roooomies!
Pepper: Me neither! Let's go in, shall we?
Janice picks up a few of the bags while giving Pepper a great big smile, and leads the way to dorm # 16.

Well... The Chef hasn't lost the bet yet. *In Pepe voice: Ju make the same boo-boo I make. Room #25's Prawny's room. Though since they are halves, I guess her taking up half his room is to be expected. But no funny business between you, get a room of your own! Oh wait, you already have. Never mind then. *Goes back to plotting, carefully prodding der Lisa for more story with my trusty ? nagging stick.

Robin: <Hops up to Lisa and her ball> We're all moved in now, Lisa!
Lisa: <Blinks at laptop> <picks up head> Wha?
Rowlf: The Dorms are back open.
Lisa: <Blink> Oh. We can get off the roof, then.
Robin: We ARE off the roof.
Lisa: We are? ...Oh, lookit that. The ball's on grass. ...How'd that happen?
Robin: We brought you down with the crane. And I DIDN'T get stuck under the rope.
Lisa: Oh, good. Well, I guess we should bring the stuff inside, then.
Rowlf: We already did.
Lisa: ...All of it?
Rowlf: Except for your ball, notebook, and computer... yup.
Lisa: ...Is it all put away?
Rowlf: Mostly.
Lisa: ...So... I don't have to do anything?
Robin: You have to go inside.
Rowlf: And bring the ball and computer and notebook.
Lisa: ...<Blink>... Sweet. <Closes laptop, tucks it under arm with notebook, and starts rolling the ball towards the steps> Lez'go!

Tosh: What're you doing, Kim?
Kim: I'm hanging up a calender.
Tosh: What for?
Kim: So that we're more aware of dates and stuff, like days when I get called in advance to work at the school or library.
Boober: That's a good idea.
Kim: Thanks, Boober. And speaking of dates, it looks like we missed a fairly important one while we were camped out in the hotel for the past couple weeks. I've got to work a couple more hours tomorrow, but afterwards what would you say to a belated birthday dinner out, Mimzy? My treat.
Mimzy: That'd be great, thanks.
Tosh: See? Told you we wouldn't forget ya.
Gillis: No, we'll just come late to the party.
Kim: ...let it go, Gillis. Just...let it go.

Also, I really am leaving for the weekend, so any dorm needing my assistance will need to wait until Sunday evening. Thanks!

*A sudden gust of wind blows the lobby doors open. Four rugged, weary, and dusty wanderers slowly make their way into the hallway*
Alex: *dragging a suitcase* We made it! Sweetums, no more taking directions from penguins, okay? We didn't even need directions! We were right outside this whole time!
Sweetums: *carrying a very large trunk, nods solemnly*
Bean: *sitting on Sweetums' shoulders* It's okay, we're here now! Well, most of us.... who else is coming, anyway?
Animal: *panting as he drags a very heavy suitcase* *shrugs*
Outside, a tiny pitter-patter of footsteps can be heard coming toward the door.
Rizzo: *enters, carrying a tiny suitcase* Whoa! Nobody move! I'm lookin fer dah Dorms, this it? Got it. Well, I hope you guys have a big kitchen, cuz right now I'm so hungry I could eat a horse! Wait a second! Don' tell me - I'm stayin wit you? Oohh, great....
Again, the door blows open. The doorway seems to glow with an angelic light. Suddenly, a rather dashing pig appears amidst the light, looking somewhat worn out.
Link: *wiping his forehead with a handkercheif* Oh wow... that was the longest walk.... *looking out the doorway* Thanks fellas that was really swell.
A group of Anything Muppets can be seen putting fans and spotlights into the back of a van.
Link: *picks up his suitcase* Well, shall you show me to my room? A captain needs his rest after a long journey....
Animal: *mouth hanging open*
Bean: *eyes wide*
Sweetums: *quietly, to Alex* These are the two guys we're gonna be rooming with?
Alex: *glares at Sweetums* Okay, guys, lets head up to our room.....

Newsie is on his way out; he passes Alex and her crew.
Newsie: Hi Alex! Great to see you again...even though you were right outside the whole time. I guess I didn't bump into you, what with trying to keep Lefty from spazzing out every five seconds. Anyway, I don't want to spoil anything...but Tommy left some presents for you and your roomies...but don't tell him I told you, or he'll have Lefty give me an atomic wedgie, I just know it! Well, I'm off to the station! Ciao!

Room 25 Layout
Walking through the door you're greeted by a small living room area with a television, a dark green couch, tattered plaid recliner, coffee table, and various bean-bag chairs are scattered. Other random items of clothing, books, movies, etc. are also around the room. A Nintendo Wii is connected to the TV. Sam Eagle sleeps on the couch (hence the neatly folded American flag-print quilt).
To the left of the door is the small kitchen area complete with a refridgerator, microwave, stove/oven, and cabinets. A small bar/eating area is connected from the far wall and three chairs are against it.
Further into the room there's a small hallway that leads to a closet on the far left. Inside the closet hangs the hammock of Gonzo the Great and Camilla. There are also various items of Gonzo's collecting--none of which are very organized inside the closet. A few bath towels are stashed on the top shelf.
In the middle of the hall area is another door that leads to the bedroom of Ryan, Clifford, and Pepe. Against the far right corner is a bunk bed--Clifford on top, Ryan on bottom. Three Muppet cast posters adorn the wall, along with a Fraggle Rock poster. Against the far left corner is a computer desk which holds Ryan's computer and other random items. A cot is stuffed in the corner and pulled out at night for Pepe to sleep upon. A chest of drawers sits against the right wall holding clothes for almost everyone. Other things in the room include Ryan's DVD and CD collection, a stool, Ryan's action figure collection, and his Gonzo replica.
That's about it for Room 25!

Song is "Where Have All the Flowers Gone," by the Kingston Trio, and it's been one of my favorites since I was a little kid. Sad song, I know, but I just felt like posting it.
