TOON WARS SHORTS
The Glitches
By Frozarburst
One day, at Toon City Town Hall...
Jimmy: Welcome everyone to the first ever Toon Republic Public Conference! Man, that rolls off the tongue… Here, we can address any updates to guidelines, any questions, concerns… (Looks closer at the audience) Er...what are you doing, Familiar?
Familiar T-Posing: Jimmy, as awesome as I am, I can't stop asserting dominance with a T-Pose. I bumped into Dad, and I've been like this since.
Tulip with her glasses stuck to her: You think that's weird? Try getting these glasses off my hand. (Waves hand around) I can't see well without them, and I'm forced to peek like it's a magnifying glass!
Timmy, bald with his cap floating above: Really? Well how bout looking in a mirror and seeing your clothes pop up like a player loading in Windows Vista?
Victor: Well you try walking around without a face!
Victor turns around, showing his lack of skin. Only hair, eyeballs, and his teeth suspended where his head should be.
Everyone: AAAAAGH!
Jimmy: WOAH, OK! OK, did this happen to anyone else?
Mao Mao and Badgerclops come flying through the wall of the stage behind Jimmy without breaking the concrete somehow! They descend into the crowd on what should be the Aerocycle, completely invisible to the naked eye. Badgerclops himself also looks blocky with smudged colors and a lack of apparent features.
Mao Mao: I'm sorry Mr. Neutron. We were just on our way when we found the Aerocycle totally invisible and clipping through things.
Badgerclops: I haven't even rendered all the way!
Danny: Wait, then where's Adorabat?
Badgerclops: We don't know.
Mao Mao: She poofed out of existence when she gave me my sword.
Samurai Jack: The same occurred to me when Ashi touched mine.
Ashi's head through the floor: Actually, I'm right here.
Samurai Jack startled: Wha-uh…! Ashi…?
Oscar: How'd your head get detached from your body?
Ashi: No, it's still connected. I'm just sunk into the floor somehow and I can't get out.
Carl T-Posing: Jimmy, she's right. I'm T-Posing whenever I look around!
Jimmy: This is clearly a Gumball situation we have here. He and Nicole will know what to do, right? (Looks around the stage) Er…Nicole?
Nicole and Gumball fall flat on their faces onto the stage from nowhere above everyone!
Gumball clipping back up: Sorry we're late.
Nicole stuck to the floor: I can't move. My ragdoll physics are broken and I'm one of reality's administrators!
Jimmy: Can you try and fix this?
Nicole: I'm trying, but it's a lot harder than you think. I'm still wondering what led up to this since this hasn't happened before.
Bimm pops into reality in Danny's position, shooting him up into the air with ragdoll physics as he's plummeting to the floor!
Bimm: OOPS! My bad, Danny! I meant to warp beside Jimmy.
Jimmy: Wait a minute. Warping, rendering, Windows, updates…? I know exactly what's wrong here!
Valentino: Well, what is it?
Jimmy: It's- (Freezes)
Gumball: AAW MAN!
Victor with his face loading poorly: Com'on!
Jimmy unfreezing: Then we can reset the Toonverse!
Sam: You froze while you were talking.
Jimmy: Oh, oops. What I was saying was, with all these new shows coming into the Toonverse, when we updated the reality controls, we made a tiiiiiiiny miscalculation when it came to keeping the little details up to speed.
Timmy: Tiny, huh?
Jimmy: Well s-s-s-s-s-s-s-ss-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-
Gumball: Great! Now he's lagging!
Future Timmy: Ok. We know what we have to do. The only question is, how?
Nicole: We could always backup the good data and go back to the last version update. Bimm, think maybe you can start?
Bimm: I can start and finish it if you want. Just (Freezes) watch.
[Bimm exe is not responding. Would you like to wait or end the process?]
Familiar: Oh no! Not you too! (Looks at himself) ...Hey wait...I'm not T-Posing anymore.
Tulip: I can finally put my glasses back on!
Victor: My face is back!
Bimm unfreezing: There we go. I consulted Clockwork to reset us back to a previous save with older settings.
Jimmy: Oh thank goodness… That was an experience. Now, before we talk, anyone wanna get yourselves situated?
Mao Mao: Yes. Thank you. Let me move my Aerocycle.
Mao Mao gets on the now visible hoverbike. But as soon as he revs up the engine, the vehicle explodes and ragdolls some of the characters around him!
Jimmy and Nicole looking at Bimm: ...
Bimm: Oh yeah, the collision detection's still very broken.
Future Timmy: Huh… I just realized. Entrapta could've helped us too.
Danny: Yeah, where is she?
Entrapta brings herself upside down from above the stage with her hair before freezing reality when she tries to speak.
