skoosiepants: (Ernie - MINE!)
[personal profile] skoosiepants
No worries, furry octopus folks. I was briefly stymied on how to start off, but I think I've got a groove going now.


Ernie was louder than a dog and more annoying than a monkey, and John was having some serious issues about the stupid pens - rocks, bits of foil, shiny coins, balls of hair – that the lell seemed to collect and shove into every nook and cranny of their living quarters. Add to that Rodney’s complete inability to put anything away and John was living in hell. A dirty, smelly, trash heap shaped hell that was made only slightly more tolerable by all the regular sex. John didn’t want to underestimate the importance of getting laid on a routine basis, but he had his limits.

When he shoved his foot into a boot and got stabbed by, yes, a fucking sparkly gel pen for the sixth time that week, he threw the boot across the room, yelled, “Goddammit, Ernie!” and even the sight of the furry octopus cowering in his basket half under his USAF tee, four eyes wide and wary, did nothing but make him a hell of a lot angrier. He couldn’t take it any more.



ETA: Does anyone know if Rosie the Robot from The Jetsons was an acronym for anything?

Already? How long after the original story does this take place?

John was the one who was originally all into it! What a fickle bitch! XD

Don't worry, this little bit gets resolved pretty quickly :) John's just being overly dramatic *g*

Oh wow. Yeah, I can totally see John at his breaking point, and what was once cute now being the bane of his existence. *currently having that same trouble with my roomie, minus the sex*

I'm am SO TORN between unmeasurable love for Ernie hiding his sparkly glitter pens in Johns boots and unbelievable trauma of John making Ernie cower in his basket under his USAF tee!

*sniff*

POOR ERNIE! He didn't mean to! He's just...he's just...He's a LELL! That's what he DOES! It's like being mad at a mischievous, eight-legged toddler for doing toddler things!

I know!! Ernie really isn't at fault AT ALL and John might just LEAVE if he doesn't behave himself but, but... I'm thinking John'll get over this part pretty quickly, since how can he stay mad at Ernie, all smooshed up and maybe mewling with his "yours" coming out as hesitant questions? It would break a the coldest heart!!!

I've always gotten a lot of interest in that snippet *nods* I love it myself, but unfortunately that's all I ever wrote. There's no more to it. Maybe... someday...

Ernie! Pens! Dirty laundry-strewn floors! (And now, back to our normal, exclamation point-free program.)

I feel sorry for John, but I feel even sorrier for Ernie. Poor furry baby. *croons*

Yes, and at least the present was a harmless object and not the usual type of "presents" pets leave in your shoes!

Aww! Poor Ernie! John reminds me of me when I was mad at my cat for dead mice in my bed, but I couldn't stay mad at her because, cat!eyes are worse than puppy!eyes. Seriously. Plus, that Breakfast club snippet down below? Totally made my year. Someone needs to write this *cough* Skooz *cough*.

Unfortunately, this one has stalled itself until I can get the crossover done, which is already at 30 pages! so exciting
