Author's Note: Sooner than the last one, but a week and day late. Have decided that TTS will stop at Episode 35, with Lia and Les as guests. Ripping Hika off again, I know…I can be swayed with reviews, possibly. ;)

Oh, I don't own, I don't own, I don't own Briar! He's Tammy's! Hey!
Oh, I don't own, I don't own, I don't own Emelan! It's Tammy's too! Hey!
Oh, I don't own, I don't own, I don't own Les! She's hers! Hey!
-------------------------------------------
I have a stand! Stand! Stand!
His name is Tim! Tim! Tim!
He likes to bite! Bite! Bite!
And fall off the rim! Rim! Rim!
---------------------------------------------
Voice: LIVE from a shower-curtain tent, it's THE TAMMY SHOW!
---------------------------------------------
Lia: I like pi.
Les: Not again...I know you like pi. I also really don't care, so can you shut up?
Lia: Nope! 3.141592 pi! It's not pastry…it's not apple…it's pi! Pi! The letter! The irrational number! Piiiiiiiii!
Les: You'll be the death of me.
Lia: ::mystical:: No…a rosebush will kill you…
Les: That's very nice. I! Don't! Care!
Lia: Spiff. We have a guest soon, you know.
Les: No, actually, I didn't. We're still on Emelan, right?
Lia: M-hmm. It's Briar.
Les: Let me guess. Two cameos.
Lia: No, but quite a few questions. Time to 'ave at 'im. It's none other than-
Both: BRIAR MOSS, GREEN MAGE, ALSO KNOWN AS ROACH!
Les: RLBM…
RLBM: ::haul on Briar, all somewhat cut up and covered in vines, and hand him over very eagerly::
Briar: Nice place you have.
Lia: Thank you, Captain Obvious. Just in case Rosie hasn't told you, guess where you are.
Briar: A tent.
Les: You're the closest yet. It's THE TAMMY SHOW, where Lia and Les kidnap random Tamora Pierce characters…
Both: AND FORCE THEM TO REVEAL THEIR MOST HIDEOUS SECRETS! MWAHAHAHA…*chokes*
Briar: Oh, that.
Lia: Yes, that. Lady Sandrilene- no, she's not Sandry fa Toren- asks, "How many times have you been threatened by a hanging in the well?"
Briar: An exact number? I lost count around six thousand eighty…
Les: Well. What's your opinion of all the fics with you/Tris, you/Sandry, you/Rosethorn, and you/male?
Briar: Wha'? Sorry, I've gotten fic-blinded. They're all lookalikes. Coppercurls-
Lia: I love that name.
Briar: -and Sand are my sisters. Rosethorn is just...wrong. How do you people come up with these things?
Les: ::snick:: Sand. I like it. Gina declares, "Wouldn't it be a good plot twist if you were gay?"
Briar: No.
Lia: I disagree. You should be. I could pair you with Crane!
Briar: Get away from me.
Lia: NEVER! She also asks if you like crisps made of vegetables.
Briar: Yes, as long as I didn't grow the vegetables myself. Even then, I'd eat them. Vegetables are boring.
Les: I'll second you on that. ::sticks "Bonsai Forever" bumper sticker on Briar:: Here.
Lia: We now have an Illegal Emelanian Hot Guys Network, Gina. Briar, do you know anything?
Briar: Yes. Can't send you Pasco or me; we're running it. Comas is up, and he says there aren't any interfering vows with Living Circle. We're rounding up dedicates for it.
Les: Shorti asks if you like cottage cheese and strawberry milkshakes.
Briar: I like cottage cheese…and strawberry cream, yes…but it combination? I think not.
Lia: Eve of Mirkwood-
Les: Wasn't she on last time for 140?
Lia: She was. Eve, can I have some of your incredible luck? Well, Eve was our 160th reviewer. Eve?
Eve: Whoa-hey! I've been…um…hiding behind the stage. You have really tasty insulation, did you know that? Briar! Does the girl from "The Ring" come out of your TV/seeing devices/etc. and try to take you home?
Briar: Yes. She's scaaaaaaaaaaaaary…almost as scary as Rosethorn…
Eve: Spoot. Now I can't. ::goes off, chewing on a piece of insulation::
Les: We need new insulation now. Poisoned insulation.
Lia: Be nice. Manga Gurl asks if Rosethorn has ever fulfilled her many threats.
Briar: No, except the one about the stem ticks.
Les: What stem ticks?
Briar: She threatened to make me pick them all off the plants without killing any. It took two days.
Lia: And I thought taking off the caterpillars was hard…
Les: Enough. She also asks if Daja's ever hit you with her staff.
Briar: Yes, frequently. It's hard!
Lia: You deserved it. Priestess of the Storm asks if you hate cats.
Briar: I do, and with good reason. A cat bit my ear when I was a baby, and a bit never grew back. I have a notch in my ear, and it's all Mr. Fluffy's fault.
Les: Well, victim, Alasse Carnesir says hello.
Briar: …hey?
Lia: HOWDY! No, actually, I didn't. Warrame asks if you hated living with all the girls.
Briar: It was annoying at times…like, say, when they were washing their hair…apparently, it's impossible to do that in the baths. Standing outside, alone, and shouting to ask when I could come in was not fun.
Les: Well, maybe they washed it in the baths but needed to wash it again. Dea, who goes, asks if a train was speeding to Baltimore at sixty kilometers an hour, and the engineer was a rabid monkey named Mr. Beens, do you support Briar/Sandry?
Briar: If I was Mr. Beens, yes. If I was me, no. She's my sister! My sister!
Lia: Yes. Go with Tris instead.
Briar: No, she's my sister too.
Lia: So? Kid in a Quilt asks what you do to herbicidal maniacs.
Briar: Tattoo their hands. Black vines, black flowers- they're never in a nursery again.
Les: …and if you've ever taken anything from the girls' rooms.
Briar: Yes. From Sandry, a spindle- she made all my shirts unravel. Tris lost a pen, then I fried in my room for two straight weeks. A lump of brass from Daja and my doorknob melted.
Lia: Don't mess with mage-girls. Starlight asks if you like any of the girls, and what your thoughts are on S/B, T/B, and D/B.
Briar: No, they're my sisters. All are twisted! TWISTED, I tell you! Though D/B is the most twisted.
Les: We like T/B.
Briar: ::cursing in several languages:: I will never understand you people.
Lia: Good, we don't either.
Les: Angel of Flames asks if you like Tris or Sandry better.
Briar: Tris, but don't tell her or Sandry.
Lia: COPPERCURLS! COPPERCURLS!
Les: ::makes note to tell Tris and Sandry:: She also asks if there's anything going on between you and Evvy.
Briar: No, as I said, "prettier, fatter, and older". She's three years younger than I am, and the cats are unforgivable. One of them gave birth on my mage-robes.
Lia: Fireblade asks if you're secretly attracted to Rosethorn.
Briar: No, she's with Lark. Not to mention that she's my foster-mother.
Les: I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT!
Lia: And I did, too, but I'm the half-sane one at the moment. Jiane Skydancer asks if you like roaches, since Roach was your gang name.
Briar: No, actually. I have some...unpleasant…roach memories. The Thief-Lord picked the name, not me.
Les: Finally, she asks if tomatoes and pumpkins are vegetables or fruit.
Briar: I think they're fruit, but I'll go ask Rosethorn! ::vine slides out of tent with Briar clinging to it::
Les: Mmph…half the Circle's done. It'll be nice when Emelan is over…
Lia: Tortall, Emelan, Tortall, Emelan, which one to choose? Pi, square root two, pi, square two, which one? Pi! 3.141592…! What else is there to say? Just the rest of PI! PI! 3.141…::cut off::
Les: ::fist gagging Lia:: I'm scarred for life.
--------------------------------------------------------
Pi is spiffy. 3.141592…Next guest is Sandry! The Lady Sandrilene fa Toren…just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? Email, review, carrier pigeon- mail the questions, but remember to review!
