Yodelling Penguins

LittleFears59 Comments

Grey Moon – Wednesday (ep. 26)

Three penguins shuffled into the bar. They stood in such a tightly formed line that when Reala looked at them from the front, it seemed like they were just one penguin.

“Erm,” started Reala, “hello?”

“‘Allo darling,” squeaked the first penguin. “We’re here for a yodelling lesson.”

“I’m afraid I don’t know of any yodelling lessons taught around here,” replied Reala.

“Darn,” said the penguin. “Then we formed an orderly orderly orderly orderly queue for nothing.”

How does a boomtish sound if performed in the key of yodel?

Snow Slides

LittleFears36 Comments

Grey Moon – Wednesday (ep. 25)

Reala was freezing. She was sat peering out of the window at three penguins on opposite side of the road.

The penguins then industriously made a snow slide and tried sliding down it. Being made of snow, it fell apart.

They then crossed the road and tried the slide in the Grey Moon beer garden.

Reala caught her breath. There was a punchline there.

~~~

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. There are no depths I will not plumb for a groan!

Also, these penguins turn up in quite a few tales. My editor has declared them her spirit animals. I think I understand…

Walks into a Bar

Grey Moon – Tuesday (ep. 24)

“I do have a concern,” said Reala.

“What’s that?” asked Yuffie.

“Yesterday an Englishwoman, Irishwoman and Scotswoman came in. Followed by a horse, a blonde, a priest and a rabbi,” said Reala. “I am very concerned…”

“With what?” asked Yuffie.

“That my life’s a joke…”

~~~

Oh my days, Reala, I feel ya!

Giving Up

Grey Moon – Tuesday (ep. 23)

“Do any religious figures come through here?” asked Reala.

“Some, but we rarely speak to them,” said Yuffie.

“Have you ever given anything up for religion?” asked Fuen.

“Never,” replied Yuffie.

“I did once,” said Reala.

“Oh?” asked Jessie.

“Yeah,” said Reala. “I once gave up plucking my belly button for lint…”

“How about the fisherwoman?” said Yuffie. “The one hunting Moby Dick.”

“Oh that poor gal,” said Fuen.

“What happened to her?” asked Reala.

“Died at the wailing wall,” said Fuen.

“Daft mistakes,” said Jessie. “I bet she felt like a right moron, standing there with her harpoon.”

Gamer Girl

Grey Moon – Tuesday (ep. 21)

“I do remember the Buddhist IT manager,” said Fuen.

“Oh yeah,” said Yuffie. “The gamer girl right?”

“That’s the one,” said Fuen. “She died at the end of a 97-day online gaming spree when an 18 foot Mario and Luigi statue fell on top of her.”

“That’s a shame,” said Reala.

“She didn’t seem to mind,” said Jessie. “She had entered Nerdvana.”

Elvis Lives

Grey Moon – Tuesday (ep. 20)

“Hey,” laughed Yuffie. “Do you remember the Elvis impersonator that came through a few months back?”

“The Arabian one?” asked Fuen.

“Yep,” replied Yuffie.

“She was pretty good,” said Fuen.

“What was she called?” asked Reala.

“Amal Shookup,” replied Yuffie.

Returning Humans

LittleFears19 Comments

Grey Moon – Tuesday (ep. 19)

“Have you ever had any humans go back?” asked Reala.

Yuffie and Fuen shifted uneasily.

“It has happened,” sighed Yuffie. “Sometimes an individual’s reputation is so powerful they never walk up the road.”

Reala nodded. “Anyone I may have heard of?”

“Maybe,” replied Yuffie. “Jack the Ripper. When Edmond Reid came through, he dragged Jack up the road. Even then some of his deeds live on as legends.”

“They linger here,” said Fuen. “Dead, unwanted and past their useful existence.”

“Like a career politician voted out of office,” sighed Jessie.

Coming Around

LittleFears28 Comments

Grey Moon – Tuesday (ep. 18)

“So how long do we stay here for?” enquired Reala.

“Until we’re forgotten entirely,” said Yuffie. “I believe I am an embodiment of necromancy.”

“How long have you been here for?” asked Reala.

“Since before humans existed,” sighed Yuffie. “Even some primates have an awareness of death and the afterlife.”

“Have you ever been back?” pondered Reala.

“Occasionally. Necromancy and the craft drift in and out of fashion. Sometimes I have a large following, and the following summons me,” replied Yuffie.

“Some things keep coming round,” said Fuen. “Like that crazy frog ringtone, man buns, platform sandals and scrunchies.”

Proper divder between text and page bottom links… Better… I think… The bigger header allows me to put the video before text, for those audio inclined. That in turn allows me a longer title and sub-heading which looks silly with all text below. Hey, I can even put in the episode number from the story. Now that’s an interesting (to me) addition.

Hopes & Opinions

LittleFears29 Comments

Grey Moon – Tuesday (ep. 17)

“This place is between the living world and the afterlife,” said Yuffie.

“I’m not sure I follow,” sighed Reala.

“Across these lands are pathways, and they all lead to the road this bar sits beside,” said Yuffie. “When creatures die they follow the road to whatever lies beyond.”

“Am I dead?” asked Reala.

“Not quite,” sighed Fuen. “When somebody dies their hopes, dreams and opinions sometimes live on for a while. That’s what we are.”

“So I could be an opinion?” asked Reala.

“Doubtful,” replied Jessie. “Ninety-nine percent of opinions go and live in the Desert of Unwanted Thoughts.”
