I bet you're all confused. Yes, the title of this story is the same but what is different this time around? Well, for those who knew me when I was starting out, this is my second story and I felt I needed to re-edit the story. Not just small details here and there.
I mean the entire story, but more than just the entire story perhaps I'll elongate the story as well. Maybe a new chapter or so. Hell, I was thinking of something interesting toward the end too. :P
So with that being said, some of you will live a blast from the past; for some others, this may be a new thing. :P

Mario and Luigi's Love Fest
Has there ever been a day that came and went where the life of the princess was...normal? Maybe in her days of being just a pure, innocent youth where life was just another day to play with. There was nothing political about it nor was there anything much else to it. The days were simple, pure, and just full of life.
Now let us jump some years ahead to the time where the princess life changed. Around her teenage years when both her parents died together and she was forced to take the throne. The responsibility of maintaining an entire kingdom and ensuring peace was brought to her shoulders, so quickly so fast for someone so young and pure hearted; but, her disposition never wavered. It can be proven with the current status of the Mushroom Kingdom, even in her youthful and naive age she managed to rule and maintain perfectly just as her parents would. Her servants loved her, her people loved her, and pretty soon she was renowned by all neighboring kingdoms.
Especially renowned to the king of the Darklands.
By her early adulthood, she came to realize how much renowned she was to the king of the Darklands. For the next coming years, she would always know; and always wonder if it would ever stop.
And then came her knight in shining armor. Not someone big, not someone particularly muscular, not someone particularly toned, but someone with a kind heart and an appetite to match.
His name was Mario Mario, whose sweet and caring personality instantly attracted the princess. The mustached hero proved time and time again that it doesn't take a super hero to save the day, just your own two feet and power ups were always welcomed.
And maybe, just maybe, love. At least that was Peach believed. I mean, surely Mario loves the princess so much he rescues her every time, right?
Right?
She didn't know, but if anything she wanted to know. She HAD to know. Her and Mario have been such good friends for such a long time... Could there be something more, something to be desired?
She grew confident now, she was resolved. This mystery has gone far enough! Now that the lost queen, Clawdia, returned to the Darklands, Bowser wasn't into the kidnapping business lately, or rather at all. With him out of the picture, there was nothing able to stop her now!
"Alright, today is the day I am going to confess my love to him."
No sooner were such words spoken when all of a sudden a knock was heard on the door.
"Princess, your 9 o' clock appointment will begin shortly." The fair princess rolled her eyes, having forgot about the meeting her royal steward, Toadsworth, had planned. As much as Peach loved him like a father, Toadsworth did have a tendency to talk.
And talk and talk.
A certain Goomba girl and her doll, two very different things but so very close. The doll, although, not real has been the perfect friend to her Goomba friend. Always telling secrets to one another but never spoken to others, always there for comfort, but never too far off.
This doll, which bared a striking resemblance to the fair princess herself, had a special background to her that came from an even more special person in her life. One day, the doll was whisked away by the wind and was never to be found again, no matter how hard she and her family continued to look. Then one day, a rather handsome man fell from the sky, right next to her own home!
This man, this handsome man, was the one and only Mario Mario. And thanks to him and her brother, her dolly returned to her safe and sound. Although the reunion was bittersweet since Mario and her brother soon ventured off onto an adventure. The little peck on the cheek she gave Mario that day had never once left her mind.
And she thought it was time to return the favor.
"Goombario," Goombaria called out, "Let's go see an old friend!"
A familiar pink Bom-omb currently resided in a quiet and calm Koopa village. Since the defeat of the Koopa Bros. (Whereabouts unknown still to this day), the town had become more lively but the town remained uneventful with the only excitement being that Kolorado's wife would yell at him whenever he came back from an expedition.
And then as if the day was timed perfectly, she would remember her amazing adventure with her mustached hero. Her particular favorite moment would be her time with him at the Crystal Palace. The particular moment where she blew up a wall like she normally would and then all of a sudden five of her were everywhere! They were duplighosts of herself that were trying to confuse Mario. At the time, she was a little discouraged because the duplighosts were very similar in appearance and she feared Mario would not recognize her.
But her thoughts were proved fruitless, Mario quickly realized and made short work of the fakes. She was astounded (Of course she played it cool and told him she knew he could do it), she didn't believe Mario would remember his friends so well. So pretty much after that little scenario, the affection she had for the plumber continued to escalate until it got to the point where all she thought about was him. She adored the guy and now, she had an really strong urge to see him once more.
That settled it. She wanted to go and invite Kooper along but she knew he wasn't home. Of course, she couldn't really get inside his humble home because there was a pile of flowers in front of the door.
-From Bruce
-To my love, Bombette
"That idiot," she grumbled.
It was another day and another time for the Boo mistress. Nothing special, nothing extraordinary, just one of those days where it was just average. Average day, average weather, average Bootler, average Boos, average mansion, average, average, average! Why couldn't more days be like that one time with Mario?
And then it hit her. Mario. Maybe it was his exterior or maybe just the dashing mustache, but whatever the case, she had to admit that she indeed had the hots for Mario. And why wouldn't she? It wasn't like many other girls liked him as much as she did right? Not even the princess if she is always getting constantly kidnapped.
Besides, she was the most beautiful (and the most fairest) of all the Boos! Who wouldn't want her?
Only a select few captured the heart of Bow, and Mario certainly captured hers. She can only hope he felt the same way.
Wait a minute, why was she worried? No one came close to being the best like she is!
"Bootler," she commanded, "I shall be gone for a while. Keep the mansion intact please."
In an instant, a pale Boo with a very refined mustache with an even more fine disposition appeared from thin air. "As you wish, my lady. Should I also take care of those ruffian toads playing in the woods?"
After a moment's thought she answered with a smile, "No, leave them to me. I could use some excitement."
She had no idea.
From out of the Toy Box and into the island came a little ball of electricity visiting an old friend of hers. Good thing too, Sushie was becoming increasingly bored and agitated with the whole babysitting thing.
"I need a vacation," she sighed. This was what Watt was hoping for.
"I know," she exclaimed, obviously failing to hide her eagerness, "Let's visit Mario! I...I mean we haven't visited him in a while."
Sushie didn't take long to think it over. After all, secretly in the back of her mind to the point where she wouldn't admit it openly, she kinda sorta maybe wanted to see the dashing plumber. You know, like, a lot. "That sounds wonderful! So, do you know where he lives? I kind of forgot."
"Oh...uh...I dunno either." Mentally face palming herself, the whole reason Watt hovered over the entire ocean was to find out where Mario lived from Sushie. Well, she obviously wash't going to find out now.
"Oh but wait, Yoshi knows how to get there!"
"That's great! Where is he?"
"Oh, he went to Toad Town through the warp pipe. We should be able to find him easily."
"Warp pipe? What warp pipe?"
"The one in the tree...? Isn't that how you got here in the first place?"
"Oh yes, of course," Watt giggled to save herself, "I was just testing your memories is all!"
"Hmph, I'm not THAT old," Sushie retorted.
It was kind of nostalgic re-watching their entire adventure being re-done by one of their ex-enemy from the past. At the same time, it was also kind of weird because comments such as, "I do not sound like that," or "That is not how I act," or "Lovely, isn't it dear?"
With most likely nothing better to do for the day, Goombella, Vivian, (Madam) Flurrie, and Ms. Mowz were all casually enjoying the show Doopliss was performing: Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door. It was an instant classic in the rough town of Rougeport, and probably the second best reason to visit Rougeport in the first place.
Through all the bad acting as three of the four friends would call it, they couldn't help but actually get lost in their mind and sort relive the real moments they had on that adventure. All the excitement, all the dangers, all the traveling, all the people, the Shadow Queen, and the final dire moments to save not just Rougeport but the world.
When it all came down to it though, there was really only one man that helped them throughout it all and if it wasn't for that heroic man then all would of been lost to begin with. The same man that all these four women were drastically infatuated by. To see him again, would be...would be...
The greatest idea in the entire world. Why none of them thought of this earlier is beyond them. He lived in the Mushroom Kingdom, right? Perhaps they could ask the locals when they got there where Mario lived.
The four friends had no idea that they were all thinking of the same thing. Whether this is creepy or not is up to you.

It also just so happens that a small Toadette girl was at the docks too. She carried a familiar hammer that resembled the Ultra Hammer (Which it was). She looked down on it, looking dreamily at it as she held it with her two little hands. Then she felt a little tingly inside and burst out laughing which startled some of the nearby pedestrians. Blushing from embarrassment, she scurried onto the boat and didn't even notice the other four friends also boarded the boat (Which was okay because none of them paid her any mind). She held that hammer close to herself and muttered dreamily, "I'm on my way Mario."
She felt tingly on the inside again and burst out laughing, startling the four friends as well as more nearby passengers.
They say this blue comet appears every once in a while and you could see it from anywhere in the Mushroom Kingdom. Today was that day, where it would shower yummy star bits for everyone.
But a select few knew what this blue comet actually was and what its purpose really was. As the average Toad, Goomba, or Koopa would enjoy tasty star bits, Mario, Luigi, and Peach both knew that this was in fact the Comet Observatory, and within this observatory housed thousands of Lumas and the fair princess of the cosmos, Rosalina. It was her job to see to it that all these Lumas had a place to call home until they grew up to be planets, galaxies, or Power Stars.
As much as Rosalina travels, she makes special periodic trips to visit the Mushroom Kingdom. Why? Well, she liked it here. There were so many good people. And one very brave hero.
Mario not only saved her twice, but he also saved the entire galaxy twice. Every being could live about their lives because this one man who was nothing extraordinary at first glance, but a man with the biggest heart to save those dear to him. His heart and unselfishness won the admiration of this princess.
So like the other girls before her, she too wanted to see the heroic plumber. It would be another day before she would be able to land, but that was okay. She would see him eventually. And maybe...
Another girl (How many are there?) was busy putting lipstick on. After puckering up in front of the mirror, she then proceeded to curl her a little. After curling her hair a little, then she proceeded to apply nail polish on her nails. After polishing her nails, she proceeded to apply various more cosmetics. After applying various cosmetics, she was ready. After she was ready, she felt ready to embrace her destiny.
With Mario, of course. After all, she was the first to be his and that's how it should of stayed. "More over Peach," she proudly exclaimed out loud to herself, "Mario is all mine!"
As if it wasn't already a big conflict to begin with, Starlow herself felt a little empty inside after saving the Mushroom Kingdom with Mario and Luigi. Now she too wanted to see the red plumber once more. She'd probably still say hi to Luigi too, but mostly Mario. She would love to be with Mario forever! The whole idea of her and Mario together...made her all excited and giddy at the same time!
At home, Mario and Luigi were bonding. They were staring at the early evening, watching as small star bits were slowly falling from space.
"Hey Luigi."
"Yes?"
"Do you ever have the feeling that something...outrageous is going to happen?"
"Totally! You remember the day when Parakarry delivered the map to me that claimed I had won a mansion in a contest I never entered? I told you something bad was going to happen that same morning and looked at what happened!"
Mario shuddered a little. That was the last time he would fall for something like that. "Yeah well...I have that feeling right now."
Luigi gulped. Can't they ever have a good day?
