Disclaimer: I own none of the cartoons within. DENTAL PLAN!
Important note: People, sometime in the future, after all this house's craziness is over, there will be a second season of this. You may suggest new residents for Season Two. My co-writer, avatarjk137 and I already have a few people (and I use that term lightly) in mind. Here are the rules for sending in suggestions:
1. Your suggestion may not get used. Please don't kill me if it doesn't, but it is too much to request that one writer knows and likes every cartoon character out there!
2. There is no restriction for a number of suggestions per person. But I wouldn't suggest sending too many in, because then you won't be bothered if they all don't get used.
3. Before you ask, there will be no characters from: Inuyasha, Spongebob Squarepants, or Scooby-Doo.
I thank you for your time. Season 1 is far from over, however.
"STARFIRE!" Pietro shouted. Starfire obediently flew in the laundry room where Pietro was standing angrily in. "Yes?"
"DID you wash colors with whites again?"
"No, I do not think so." Starfire looked at him. "Why?"
Pietro held out brightly colored tank tops, underwear, and T-shirts. "I put my tees, underpants, and tanks in a white wash. AND THEY'RE GREEN!" It was true, Pietro's formerly white clothing articles had all turned a particularly hideous shade of lime green.
Right about that time, Zolo walked in, whistling peacefully. He rummaged through the warm, freshly dried load of clean clothes. He finally came across his bright green, haramaki sash and put it around his waist where it belonged. "Ah…fresh laundry smell." He looked over at Pietro. "Ew Quicksilver, what's with the lime green clothing? It's greener than my hair."
Yumi walked in next. She took out one of her signature blue skull t-shirts from the pile. But it was now a painfully bright shade of turquoise. She shrugged, slung it over her shoulder and walked to her room, whistling the tune of one of her own songs.
"Great…" Pietro looked down at his clothes. "Now my underwear drawer will be in Technicolor."
Starfire smiled. "Maybe… you could borrow a pair from another member of the household?" She offered helpfully.
Pietro snorted. "Good one, Starfire."
"I can give underwear!" Ed stumbled over to them.
"Splendid!" Starfire hovered up in the air, happy.
"Uh…no." Pietro ran out of the room as fast as he could to escape possible disaster. He went into his room. The first thing he saw was Tak, clad in her human disguise, standing on his bed, with his cell phone in her right hand and a handful of what looked like computer discs in the left. "Um… this… isn't what it looks like!"
"Who're you?" Pietro asked, surprised.
Tak looked just as surprised. But then she remembered that he hadn't seen her human disguise, and only saw her in her natural Irken form. She looked like a normal human, if a little pale and with slightly weird hair (a short, edgy haircut in navy blue). Her clothes didn't differ that much, however. "I'm… taking a survey!"
Pietro narrowed his dark blue eyes. He closed the door and leaned against it. "Okay… ask me a question."
"Um…" Tak looked around the room quickly, desperate for an idea. "Uh… genetically, what separates you from a normal human?"
"Well, there is a gene called an X-Factor in human genetics. When it's positive, some random power or powers are granted to the individual, along with possible appearance changes. This usually surfaces during adolescence, or so I've been told. In my case, the X-Factor manifested in super-speed and agility, as well as the ability to think fast enough to match the speed I'm moving at." Pietro stopped enjoying his own voice to think. "How did you know I'm a mutant?"
"NEXT QUESTION! Are you aware that one of your roommates isn't human?"
"I'm aware that four of them aren't human, besides myself. What an odd survey. Why were you waiting in my room to survey me?"
"QUESTION 3! What is your opinion on the roommate who calls himself ZIM?"
"The little green guy is a douchebag. Luckily for everyone involved, he's not nearly smart enough to take over the Earth, because his technology is pretty nice. If you're taping this, I hope he heard that. What were you doing with my stuff when I walked in?!"
"FINAL QUESTION! What horrible HORRORS does ZIM have planned for you?! Do you perceive any of them as actual threats? Would you be willing to help Zim be expelled from your pitiful reality show… AND THIS PLANET?!" Tak realized she was yelling.
"That's more than one question. Anyhoo, in order, I haven't kept track of what horrible HORRORS ZIM is planning, I doubt any of them are threats, and I would lo-o-ove to see Zim gone. Do I know you from somewhere?"
Tak dropped Pietro's stuff. "MIMI!!!" A small black cat whooshed into the room, seemingly from nowhere, and stopped in front of Pietro, glaring at him.
"Um, I'm not really a cat person." MiMi transformed in a small whirlwind into a gray robot slightly smaller than Zim. She whipped out the massive claw on her left arm, and grabbed Pietro's head. "Not the hair!" MiMi began smashing Pietro's skull against his computer monitor. Tak grabbed Pietro's computer tower, unhooked it, and backflipped out the window, taking his CPU with her. MiMi stopped mercilessly smashing Quicksilver's head and followed her master out the window.
Ed stared at his two current companions, Naruto and Bender. Ed was happy with them, as Naruto's cockiness and little common sense reminded Ed of Eddy. Bender reminded Ed of his other friend Edd, even though Bender and Edd were not alike in any way, at all.
"WHAT?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN ROBOTS ARE BETTER THAN HUMANS?" Naruto shouted, waving his fists in the air.
"Did I stutter?" Bender put his left robotic hand on his hip.
Naruto crossed his arms. "YEAH, you DID stutter!"
"Oh…" Bender looked blank for a minute. "Well then, that proves that robots are better! Not only are they smarter than human meatbags but they can also do things like stutter their voices!" Instead of waving his fist, Bender waved his beer bottle, but was careful not to spill any.
"That doesn't make any sense!" Naruto jumped.
Ed smiled broadly and stood up from the leather couch. "Cents stands for money and money stands for cash and cash stands for jawbreakers!"
"A jawbreaker? Is that all it will take to get you to shut up?" Naruto reached inside his pocket and took out a few red, green, yellow, and purple jawbreaker candies. "FINE! Take these, just shut up!" He threw them at Ed, who grabbed them and collapsed in happiness. He simply lay on the marble floor, satisfied.
"Fine! I declare a challenge in this house! Humans versus nonhumans! Then I'll show you who's better!" Naruto pointed at Bender.
Bender blinked. "What does a challenge between all nonhumans have to with robots being better?"
Naruto ignored Bender and grabbed Ed. "Come on, Ed! You're on the human side!"
"Wanna bet?" Bender said, looking at Ed. "He barely looks human at all! Pietro looks and acts more like a human than this yellow idiot!"
Pietro walked in, a bandage around his head. "Don't call me human! I'm a mutant and I'm proud!"
"I will call you a human, you hyperspeed meatbag!"
"Don't lump speed-freak here in with us!" Naruto protested.
"What are you talking about?" Starfire asked, as she wafted in.
"We're arguing about whether humans are better than non-humans," Quicksilver explained.
"Actually," Bender interrupted, "we were arguing humans versus robots…"
"INSOLENCE!" Zim dropped from the ceiling. "Nonhumans are much better!"
"Do you only hear every other sentence?" Bender asked.
"Humans are better," Zolo announced as he walked in, "and I'm willing to fight to prove it."
"Don't delude yourself, mon," Grim dissed as he appeared in a column of evil energy. "One, nonhumans are much better, and two, you're just plain willing to fight."
"I agree," Zolo said with a confident grin, "and I'm willing to fight to prove it."
Yumi and Jack walked in at the same time. "What the heck is going on?" Jack asked.
"Nonhuman and human challenge is officially declared!" Bender officially declared. "For all that weren't present to hear that!"
Read and review. And vote. Those leering, strange, profesional skateboarder-kidnapping carnies in the corner say that it would be a good idea.
'Kay bye.
