Chapter 2: Ask The Cast
T-Freak1996 waves as she flips on the camera, the background different than before and showing the Lair's living room with the guys and the girls all sitting on the couch.
" Hey guys! Glad to see all you beauty's tuning into our first live questionnaire! " T greets as she shoves back in her chair and rolls back toward the others, a notebook in her lap. Elizabeth sighs, sounding a bit bored and flopping over to lay her upper half in Leeanna's.
"Are we gonna start this or what?" Raph demands impatiently, rolling his eyes at T's enthusiastic greeting to the fans. T pushes out her bottom lip and pouts at the red banded turtle who sits on the arm of the chair beside Leeann, who smacks his arm lightly.
"Just be patient Red, she's gotta say hi to everyone so they'll stick around to hear the answers their questions for us" She scolds him lightly, then turning to T with a 'go ahead' gesture. T smiles and bounces a bit in her seat in excitement as Mikey returns her smile from his cross-legged seat on the floor in front of Liz and Brigit. Leo sits in the armchair beside the couch and Donny with April beside him.
T sits up further in her swivel chair as Raph rolls his eyes again.
"Why we even got to do this?" He groans, T chuckles and looks down at her notebook and flips it open, putting pen to paper.
"Let's not forget it was you who outed me to the PD's when I was scouting for info on Hun Raph, you owe me" She says almost under her breathe, the red banded turtle looks like he's about to argue but T then looks up and continues, cutting him off. " Alright! So let's begin shall we!"
"Woohoo let's do it!" Mikey shouts enthusiastically, grinning wide. T smiles and looks back down at the notebook, tapping the pen against the pages.
"Okay, So Amanda Fair has two questions, First is for everyone! Question one! What's everyone's favorite pizza topping/toppings?" T asks, looking at everyone's faces and then pointing to Donny to start off. Donny frowns a little, tilting his head a little bit in thought.
"I'd have to say my favorite type of pizza would be Pepperoni and portabella mushrooms" he admits, nodding apparently happy with this conclusion. T nods a little and writes down his answer for future reference, looking up and pointing her pen at April. April sighs and rests her legs in Donnie's lap from where she sits in the opposite arm chair.
"Hawaiian pizza is by far my favorite! I like something on the sweet side" She answers resolutely, reaching out a hand with a smile and rubbing the top of Donnie's head to signify the something sweet. Mikey crinkles his nose jokingly at the gesture, smiling all the while as Liz 'Ew's' and laughs herself. Raph rolls his eyes but smirks as Leeann and Bre just smile wistfully at the behavior, Brigit a bit more openly than Leeann.
Leo just smiles into his mug of tea and shakes his head as T lets out a purposely obnoxious Aw and then points her pen at the recipient of Liz's legs across her lap. The strawberry blonde taps her chin thoughtfully for a moment or two before answering.
"Sausage and Jalapeno" She says decisively, nodding with a giggle. Leo almost spits out his tea at the sound and stands from where he sat in the second arm chair, setting his tea on the coffee table and taking one of the napkins T had set out when Leeann made cookies and tea for everyone.
"Sorry about that, Jalapeno? Really? I didn't know you liked spicy food" Leo plays it off as he wipes his face and T cracks up at his straighter than straight face. After a second of awkward stares at T she stops and clears her throat.
"Alright Leo since you spoke up it can be your turn next" She says, cringing underneath the suspicious gazes of everyone else there. Leo sighs and moves back to where he sat before in the arm chair, running a hand down his face and unleashing a slight glare in T's direction at her insistence of him answering next when he clearly is trying to keep himself composed. T catches this and smiles, shrugging as if to say he shouldn't have freaked out.
"Well my favorite pizza would have to just regular pepperoni but I would love to try this new type of pizza I saw the other day when me and Brigit were at the store," He leans forward to lean his clasped hands on his knees as he continues " It was a pepperoni pizza with arugula, papaya, and ginger flakes"
Raph scowls at the choice and makes a disgusted face and Leo rolls his eyes.
"Okay Raph, what kind of pizza do you like?" Leo asks almost sarcastically, making Raph chuckle and hold up one of his hands.
"I'd like Pepperoni, Bacon, Ham, Sausage all with Stuffed Crust" Raph ticks off the toppings on his fingers and nodding confidently once he's done "Nah you tell me that ain't a good pie!"
"Sounds like artery cloggin pizza to me" Leeann says with a laugh, looking up at him with an eyebrow raised. Raph reaches down and shoves her shoulder gently as T scrambles to keep up.
"Oh yeah Dollface? What's yer favorite pie then?" He challenges her, his tone almost joking but not quite. Leeann gives him a mock glare before turning to T.
"I personally like Pepperoni Sausage and onions" She says matter of factly, elbowing a laughing Raph in the side and making him almost jump out of his shell, consequently ending up with him on the floor. Leeann jumps as he falls, him swearing loudly and Liz sighs.
" I honestly just like cheese on my pizza, it's really good without all the toppings in my opinion" Liz says with a yawn, Mikey looking up at her in surprise.
"I didn't expect you to be a plain pizza lover" Mike tells her, smiling as she twists to face him with a tired smile as she rests her head on Lee's lap.
"Yep, I like my pizza all natural" she tells him, poking him in the forehead before closing her eyes and promptly smiling as Leeann braids her reddish brown hair. Mikey turns back around and faces T.
"Well on that note since everyone else has answered, I'd just like to say that I like pizza of any and all varieties!" He smiles into the camera, his face twisting in disgust as he thinks of something "Except for pizza with Anchovies or Sardines, that's so gross! I mean if they accidentally put those little salty fish monsters on my pizza I'd-"
"Moving along!" T interrupts as she feels a lecture coming on, looking to her notebook for a brief second and then looking back up at them. "Next question from Amanda Fair is for the girls, Girls? What's your favorite memory since meeting the guys?"
At this the three additions look to each other with curious glances and Bre sighs.
"Well, for me I'd have to say my favorite memory was when we all hung out in the Lair and were going to do a big family dinner! That was a fun day! At least for me it was! Leo even helped me teach Joey a new trick! That is until two someones I know decided to go get into a fight and dinner didn't happen" She says with a shrug, Leo smiling at Brigit as he remembers the day she speaks of. Brigit then looking to Leeann whose focus is clearly focused on getting Liz's braid just right. T frowns impatiently as Leeann sits in silent focus until finally T grabs a cookie from the tray and lobs it at Leeann's head, only for Raph to catch it promptly and eat it. Leeann flinches and looks at Raph who seems suddenly interested in the ceiling as he sits back on the couch arm and Lee ties off Liz's braid with a sunset orange ribbon as she opens her mouth to speak.
"I don't know what moment would be my favorite, they've all been pretty damn cool, I think if I had to choose though it'd be when we were all going through Sensei's assessments of our abilities in the martial arts," She stops for a second then shrugs and looks up to T, throwing her a slight glare for throwing the cookie at her "I mean it was really interestin to find out the things we did well and the things we need to work on from a seasoned master, though having those freaky looking knives to my throat obviously put a damper on my enjoying my assessment "
Lee shudders at the memory and Liz pulls herself to sit up, crossing her legs and leaning her forearms on Mikey's head thoughtfully.
"I think my favorite memory would be when me and Mikey started the picture war! Leeann was so mad when we showed a picture of her sleeping to her partner in her culinary class! He stills laughs whenever he sees-" She laughs all the way through her answer, even as Mike's eyes bulge and he and Brigit look at her trying to hush her. Brigit eventually just opting to clap a hand over her mouth, Lee's eyes widen and she slowly turns to face Liz a bright red blush crawling up Leea's face.
"Is that why Torrance randomly looks at me and laughs in the middle of class? Are you kidding?" Lee demands angrily, Raph suddenly coughing and pounding on his chest.
"Whose Torrance? I thought your partner was Cinia?" He asks confused, getting a shut up wave and a brief 'what do you care' look from a currently enraged Leeann. Brigit and Mikey slowly inch away and Liz laughs nervously, slowly getting up off the couch.
"Sooooo.. No one told you yet huh?" She asks nervously, Leeann shakes her head and Liz opens her mouth momentarily to speak then bolts, jumping over Mikey and the coffee table in one bound, Leeann following momentarily.
"Get back here Elizabeth Kelly!" Lee's voice can be heard yelling throughout the Lair, just as Elizabeth runs past the camera and behind the couch with the angry dishwater blonde following behind her.
"NO! You're gonna hurt me!" Elizabeth yells back to her, causing the rest of the occupants to either roll their eyes, laugh, shake their heads or, in the dog's case who had both been sleeping in the corner in their usual positions till this moment, start to bark. Brigit and Mike lean on each other for support due to laughing to hard and as Liz jumps over the dining room table she goes around it and points at them.
Lee laughs and spreads her arms invitingly to Liz, who also stops to see what she's doing.
"No, I'd never hurt you! I just wanna give you a nice big hug! Maybe shake you a little bit but eh!" Leeann tells her this slowly as she approach her, getting just within arms reach when Liz hears the second part and bolts again. "Get back here ya little-"
"Yeah! Laugh it up! Y'all're next!" She tells them menacingly, her accent slipping in as she continues the chase. T wipes her eyes and pushes back toward the camera, looking into it and trying not to laugh again.
"Alright guys! If you'd like to ask the guys or girls a question please feel free to leave a review! Tell me who the question is for your welcome to question the bad guys as well" She whispers the last part, but Leo's head snaps up and he looks to be in what T calls 'Lecture Mode'. "Heh! Bye guys!"
