Snowmen


At a cantina. Ahsoka Tano, former Jedi, is sitting at the bar nursing a drink. She is dressed in a red vest, brown/tan pants and dark boots. Tano is joined by Asajj Ventress. They are both drinking to mourn the premature end of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

~O~

[A short, happy snowman toddles up to the bar next to Ventress.]

OLAF: Hi, everyone. I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs.

VENTRESS: What a coincidence. So does my lightsaber. Here (activates saber) why don't you two get acquainted.

OLAF: (Approaches red lightsaber) Oooh, pretty. (SCRRAZZZZ!) Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!

VENTRESS: Serves him right.

AHSOKA: Watch out. He has a big brother named Marshmallow.

VENTRESS: Marshmallow? Really? Ha! I'm not afraid.

AHSOKA: Well, he's standing right next to you so maybe you should apologize.

VENTRESS: Oh yes, I'm going to be so afraid of a teeny, tiny snow man named Marshmallo… (Looks down expecting itty bitty snow man. Then cranes her neck up.) Mallow… oh… oh… oh. Oh you're a big one.

AHSOKA: Uh huh

VENTRESS: He seems terribly angry.

AHSOKA: Yep.

VENTRESS: This is going to hurt, isn't it?

AHSOKA: Like a mother.

VENTRESS: Tano, be a dear and call an ambulance for me.

AHSOKA: Already on it. (Whips out phone)

MARSHMALLOW: STAY! AWAY! FROM! OLAF! (Grabs Ventress by legs and starts flailing her back and forth) [WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM!]

AHSOKA: Huh, he got that move from Hulk in The Avengers. (On phone) Hello, Tim Taylor Emergency Services? I need an ambulance. (Looks over at Ventress) …and bring a squeegee.

VENTRESS: …ow…
