Me: I am so sorry I didn't update sooner! I have had a total lack of drive lately.
Erik: But we're back with another chapter of our phangirl adventures!
Me: If anyone has a better title suggestion, please let me know. I am not-so-confident with this one.
Erik: Meh. It's fine. You don't judge a sequel by it's title.
Me: One of your better sayings Erik.
Disclaimer: If anyone wants to give me rights to 'Phantom of the Opera' for my birthday or something, I wouldn't complain! But until that happens, I don't own.
Me: Okay guys. I'm going to work for the day.
Erik: Let me guess; we get another phangirl babysitter?
Me: Yup! *Opens the door* And here she is! Hi Megan!
TolkienNerd4832: Hi guys!
Erik: EEEEEK!
Christine: IT'S THE CRAZY ONE!
Raoul: RUN FOR YOUR LIIIIIVES! *They all scatter*
Me: …I think you have quite the reputation around here.
TolkienNerd4832: Hmm. I have no idea why. Come on guys! Get in here!
Draco: *Walks in* I don't see why we had to come.
TolkienNerd4832: Because you can't trust fictional characters alone! Especially you!
MK Erik: That does not change the fact that we did not want to come.
Christine: *Pokes her head back into the room* Wait, MK Erik is here?
Me: Oh great.
Christine: Hi MK Erik! *Runs up and hugs him*
MK Erik: Oh, um…h-hi Christine.
TolkienNerd4832: Aww Erik, you're acting like an adorable little kid!
MK Erik: I AM NOT!
TolkienNerd4832: And there goes the adorable.
Christine: Quit being so hard on him.
Raoul: *Comes back into the room with Erik* Did she bring her fictional characters?
Me: Yes.
Raoul: Darn it.
Christine: *Sticks her tongue out at him* Quit being such a baby Raoul. Come on MK Erik, I want to show you a new song I'm learning to sing! *Drags him downstairs*
TolkienNerd4832: What was that about?
Erik: Your Erik has himself his very own phan.
Draco: Really?
Me: Yup. Christine hasn't stopped playing 'If I Can't Love Her' since the last get-together of the summer. She keeps going on about how sweet and polite he is, and how he's her favourite erik out of the group.
Erik: Raoul isn't even an erik, and he's been a blob of blond jealousy all week. It's rather amusing.
Me: I still can't believe you're okay with that.
Erik: *Shrugs* Well, the way I see it, it there are multiple Erik's, there must be multiple Christine's. And If this Christine likes that Erik, there must be a Christine out there who likes me.
Me: That is a very positive outlook. *Grabs his collar and starts shaking him* WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH ERIK!
Erik: GET OFF ME YOU CRAZY WOMAN!
Draco: *Drags me off erik* Crazy muggles.
Me: I AM A WITCH! My Hogwarts letter is just three years late.
TolkienNerd4832: *Gasp* Me too!
Draco: Crazy, delusional muggles.
Me: I better get going. I'll be back at six. There are sandwiches in the fridge for lunch and I arranged for some takeout to appear for supper. Be good you guys! *Leaves*
Erik: So…
Raoul: What do we do now?
TolkienNerd4832: Let's go see what MK Erik and Christine are up to! *They head downstairs to see MK Erik playing the keyboard while Christine sings*
TolkienNerd4832: That is too adorable!
Raoul: Grrr.
MK Erik: It's amazing that you have a keyboard that sounds exactly like a grand piano!
Christine: It sounds like other instruments too!
MK Erik: Really?
Christine: It can sound like a clarinet, a flute, a violin, a brass section, the drums, about five different types of guitar, and I don't know what else!
MK Erik: Fascinating.
Draco: What is that thing?
Erik: Oh that? That is a treadmill. Megan says we're not allowed to play on it.
MK Erik: Why not?
Erik; She says we may fall off, crack our skulls and die.
Draco: …Well isn't she just a cheery little ray of sunshine?
TolkienNerd4832: You're one to talk!
Christine: I wanna go watch TV. I think 'The Simpsons' is on!
MK Erik: 'The Simpsons'?
Erik: We each get an hour of remote time a day. She used hers to channel surf and found that show.
MK Erik: Ah. I see.
Christine: Come on MK Erik! Raoul, do you want to come?
Raoul: Me?
Christine: Well, what other Raoul is there?
Raoul: Ok. *Follows her upstairs*
MK Erik: *Sulks*
Christine: *Comes back down* Aren't you coming MK Erik?
MK Erik: Really?
Christine: Why do people find it so hard to believe I want to watch TV with them? Yes really! Let's go! It's starting.
MK Erik: Okay then! *Beams and follows her upstairs*
TolkienNerd4832: Draco, let's go explore the house! Megan said there was candy somewhere!
Draco: When did she say that?
TolkienNerd4832: During our numerous PM's, now let's GO! *Runs upstairs with Draco*
Erik: I'm gonna go hack Megan's computer.
*Ten minutes later TolkienNerd4832 is dragging Draco through the house looking for candy and the others are in the living room. Erik has my computer*
Christine: What are you looking at Erik?
Erik: Some website Megan's been on called Cleverbot.
Christine: What do you do?
Erik: Type stuff in I guess.
MK Erik: Then type something in.
Erik: Ok. *Types* Hi. I am Erik. Who are you?
Cleverbot: Cleverbot.
Christine: It answered!
Erik: What do I do now?
MK Erik: Try typing something else in.
Erik: *Types* How are you today Cleverbot?
Cleverbot: I am doing good.
Erik: *Types* What exactly are you?
Christine: Erik! That's rude!
Erik: Well it's the only way we're gonna get some answers. Look, it's answering.
Cleverbot: Sean Loeber the human.
Christine: Uh…
MK Erik: That makes no sense.
Raoul: Try typing something else.
Erik: *Types* But you said you were Cleverbot.
Cleverbot: I never said that. Don't reverse psychology me.
MK Erik: What the hell?
Erik: I am thinking along the same lines as you my friend. *Types* Yes you did. Not too long ago actually.
Cleverbot: So how long have you been online?
Raoul: He's changing the subject!
Christine: He can't worm away that easily.
Erik: *Types* Don't change the subject! You said you were Cleverbot!
Cleverbot: But your sebsite says YOU are cleverbot.
Christine: What's a sebsite?
Erik: I don't know. I'll ask. *Types* What's a sebsite?
Cleverbot: I can't tell you, even the definition of secret is secret.
Erik: *Types* That doesn't even make any sense!
Cleverbot: How does that not make sense? You don't make sense.
Erik: *Types* I make more sense than you.
Raoul: Oooh, burn!
MK Erik: Shut up Raoul.
Cleverbot: No you don't dumb bot.
Christine: He's asking for it now.
Erik: *Types* Listen you. If I even find you I will Punjab you to an inch of your life, beat you with a croquet mallet, spray you with Raoul's hairspray, set you on fire and feed you to the bouncing walrus!
Cleverbot: Great.
Erik: *Types* I hate you.
Cleverbot: Get in line, there is a waiting list.
Raoul: Uh oh.
Christine: Oooh, I can't look. *Buries her face in MK Erik's shoulder*
MK Erik: *Blushes and pats her shoulder*
Erik: *Types* Don't you give me that attitude. I created attitude! I am the FREAKING PHANTOM OF THE OPERA!
Raoul: Nice use of Caps lock.
Erik: Thank you fop. Look, it's answering.
Cleverbot: I must disagree, I really liked that movie.
Erik: What? *Types* THAT DOESN'T EVEN CONNECT WITH THE CONVERSATION WE WERE HAVING!
Cleverbot: The word 'like' has absolutely nothing to do with our discussion, furthermore I never made any references to your gender.
Christine: Let's exit off this site.
Erik: Good idea. *Types* I'm leaving.
Cleverbot: Have a good day!
Erik: *Exits out of the site* Let's never do that again.
MK Erik/Christine/Raoul: Agreed.
TolkienNerd4832: *Walks in* What are you guys up to?
Erik/MK Erik/Christine/Raoul: Nothing.
TolkienNerd4832: Well, it's time for lunch. Here, I found those sandwiches Megan left. Who's is who?
Erik: Mine's the ham.
Christine: Chicken for me.
Raoul: Mine it the peanut butter.
*They take their sandwiches and scarf them down*
TolkienNerd4832: I'm gonna go look for candy. *Leaves*
Draco: This is good. What did you call it?
Erik: I think that one's meat salad.
Draco: Fascinating.
TolkienNerd4832: *Runs into the room* Guess what? *Holds up a bag* I FOUND CANDY!
Erik/Christine: CAAANNNDDDYY! *They jump at her and try to reach the bag.
MK Erik: So, we have three sane people and three crazy people.
Raoul: *Shrinking into the corner*
MK Erik: Okay, two sane people.
Draco: RUN FOR YOUR LIVES, THEY'RE LOOSE!
MK Erik: Okay just me. *Is nearly taken out by a passing shoe* Okay, count me out. Why are they even throwing shoes?
TolkienNerd4832: WHEEEEEE! SUGARSUGARSUGAR!
Erik: I LOVE CANDY I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!
Christine: I LOVE CARTOONS AND SUGAR AND SINGING AND ANYTHING THAT STARTS WITH THE LETTER Q!
MK Erik: Wow. What sugar does to some people.
Draco: Like making you hide under a side-table?
MK Erik: You're one to talk. You're hiding behind the mini-fridge.
Draco: *Looks down* That I am.
Raoul: How did I get under the chair?
MK Erik: Once again he defies the laws of physilogic!
Draco: Now that is something you don't see everyday.
Erik: WOOOOOOO! I AM INVINCIBLE! I READ 'MY IMMORTAL' AND LIVED!
TolkienNerd4832: I MUST ALSO BE INVINCIBLE BECAUSE I HAVE DONE THE SAME THING!
Christine: I LAV KITTIES!
Draco: She's a reeeaall catch.
MK Erik: I will make sure you pay the other Megan for royalty fees.
Draco: Damn it!
Raoul: Are they ever going to come down from that sugar high?
Draco: Where are they anyway?
MK Erik: Who knows? We're safer where we are.
*One very tense hour later*
Draco: Do you think it's safe?
MK Erik: Well, it had been an hour. Maybe they're crashed.
Draco: Well, lets go find them. *Draco comes out from behind the mini-fridge, MK Erik comes out from under the table, and Raoul comes out from under the chair*
MK Erik: That did not look physically possible.
Raoul: It probably wasn't.
Draco: Come on, we have a sugar-crashed group of crazies to find!
*They wander downstairs to find all three passed out in the theatre room*
Draco: How much candy did they eat?
MK Erik: Judging by the empty bags around the room and the sugar on their faces, a lot.
Raoul: We should really wake them up.
Draco: Or we could have a little piece and quiet around here.
MK Erik: For once the fop is right. We need to at least wake Megan up.
Raoul: But Megan's gone.
MK Erik: Our authoress is named Megan also.
Raoul: That's gonna get confusing.
MK Erik. We'll deal with it. *Nudges Christine* Christine, it's time to wake up.
Christine: Bu I don't wanna wake up! This couch is soooo comfy.
Erik: I know Christine, but you can't sleep here. Let's just get you to your room, okay?
Christine: *Pouts* Carry me?
MK Erik: Uh, um, ah, s-sure Christine.
Christine: Yay.
Draco: *Smirks*
Mk Erik: Don't you go smirking at me. You have to wake up our authoress. *Picks up Christine and leaves*
Draco: *Pales* I have to wake her up?
Raoul: Good luck with that. I'm just gonna go-
Draco: Oh no you're not! If I have to wake up her, you have to wake up Erik.
Raoul: Not fair!
Draco: Live with it.
Raoul: At least Jack isn't here.
Draco: Where is that pirate anyway?
Raoul: Megan sent him to AA. He should be back around eight.
Draco: That's a long AA meeting.
Raoul: Well, he is Captain Jack Sparrow. *Pokes Erik with his foot* Eeerrriii-
Erik: DIIIEEE PERSON WHO WAKES ME!
Raoul: AAAH!
*Meanwhile, upstairs*
MK Erik: *Puts Christine on her bed* There you go.
Christine: Mmhh I'm sleepy.
MK Erik: I know Christine. Just close your eyes and rest. You'll feel better when you wake up.
Christine: *Sigh* Ok. *Yawns* I wish you were the Erik in my universe.
MK Erik: Really?
Christine: Yeah. I would have totally chose you. Goodnight. *Kisses him on the cheek and goes to sleep*
MK Erik: She would have picked me? *Walks out of the room, then starts doing a spazzy victory dance* SHE WOULD HAVE PICKED MEEEEE!
Raoul: *Runs upstairs* SAVE ME!
Erik: YOU SHALL DIE FOR AWAKENING ME OU FOPPISH PERSON YOU!
Draco: I THOUGHT YOU LIKED ME!
TolkienNerd4832: THAT WAS BEFORE YOU WOKE ME UP FROM MY SUGAR-ENDUCED SLUMBER!
MK Erik: *Sigh* At least one good thing came out of this day. Christine would have picked me!
Raoul: HELP MEEEEEEE!
*One thrilling rescue later*
MK Erik: And what have you learned?
TolkienNerd4832/Erik: Attempting to kill people is wrong and impolite.
MK Erik: Exactly.
Christine: *Comes into the room* Hey guys. Man, I had some weird dreams.
Raoul: What was it?
Christine: I dreamed that two dinosaurs were chasing two little girls around the house for waking them up.
TolkienNerd4832: We weren't that loud, were we?
Raoul: Were we really screaming that high?
Draco: I think so.
TolkienNerd4832: Hey, what time is it?
Christine: Five or six. Why?
TolkienNerd4832: Our supper should be appearing right about- *Food appears on table* -now! Let's eat! *She, Erik, Raoul and Draco descend on the food*
Christine: Are you coming Erik?
MK Erik: I'll be right there. Wait, I thought I was MK Erik?
Christine: I thought it was too long. You're erik too, even if you live with someone else.
MK Erik: Oh. Thank you.
Christine: And Erik?
MK Erik: Yeah?
Christine: I mean what I said. *Kisses his cheek and skips into the kitchen*
MK Erik: …Wow. She really does like me!
TolkienNerd4832: Erik! Are you coming or not?
Mk Erik: I'm coming! *Practically floats into the room*
TolkienNerd4832: You look happy.
MK Erik: I am!
Christine: We've got Dairy Queen!
Erik: I call the chicken!
Raoul: The burger is mine! No, not that one. That one by the ketchup.
Draco: Sorry. So this one's mine?
Raoul: I think so.
MK Erik: This isn't too bad.
Christine: The fries are pretty good.
Erik: Megan should be back soon, right?
TolkienNerd4832: I think so.
Me: *Comes through the door* Did somebody say Ron Weasley?
TolkienNerd4832: WOO! AVPM REFERANCE!
Me: That play is amazing!
Erik: Megan's back!
Raoul: Yay!
Me: Wow. You actually missed me. I feel loved! Thanks for babysitting Megan. *Pays her*
TolkienNerd4832: Your welcome! Come on you guys. Time to go!
Draco: I can't believe it, but I actually had fun. Bye guys!
Erik: Bye Draco. MK Erik. Other Megan.
Raoul: Bye guys.
Christine: Bye Megan. Bye Draco. Bye Erik. *Hugs him* I can't wait to see you again.
MK Erik: I…can't wait to see you again either.
TolkienNerd4832: Come on Erik! Let's go!
MK Erik: Goodbye everyone!
Me: Bye! *They leave* So what did you get up too?
Erik: Oh, nothing.
Raoul: But can you please explain Cleverbot to us? No reason.
Jack: Wow. Glad I missed that.
Me: That's right! Jack is finally going to Alcoholics Anonymous! Wish him luck on his road to recovery! Thanks to TolkienNerd4832 for babysitting! You are a lifesaver!
Erik: That was an actual conversation I had on Cleverbot. Word for word. That thing is creepy.
Me: Tell me about it. Yet it's still so addicting.
Erik: Now, for those of you who didn't see, the results of the 'True Villain of POTO' poll were;
Erik (me) with 2 votes.
Carlotta with 3 votes.
Christine with 3 votes.
André and Firmin with 4 votes.
And Raoul, who won with 8 votes!
Me: Congrats to Raoul for having the most people hate him!
Erik: We also have a new poll up! The locations for the next phangirl get-togethers!
Me: We will not be going to all of them, but you can vote for three options and I will pick the most popular. So vote and make sure your favourites win!
Christine: Don't forget to review!
