This was an idea that had been sitting in my head for a while. Now, with this prompt, I had an excuse to write it.
Change
Fudge and Cruz were sat inside Burger King. Fudge alternated between her burger, fries and a slurp of her soda while Cruz, a vegetarian and not very thirsty, was quite content with some fries. However, she wasn't content with something else...
"Why's everyone staring at us?"
Fudge shrugged. "Maybe because we're famous?"
"Yeah, but that doesn't explain why they're staring at us like we're alien creatures or something", Cruz countered.
"Maybe because we're in Burger King?" Fudge guessed. "We're rich, so they probably expect us to eat caviar every night and be like..." She put on an exaggerated (and fake) fancy British accent. "'Excuse me, but I asked for this steak medium rare. This is medium sort of rare. Do I look like a sort of kind of person to you? I thought not!'"
Cruz laughed. "I guess fame hasn't changed us that much. I mean, we still like going to Burger King and fly coach most of the time."
Fudge nodded. "I still live in a tyre shop; I don't need a pool 'cause the waterfall's good enough for me and I don't like to get dressed up."
Her best friend smiled. "I guess that's a good thing. We're still ourselves."
"Yeah", the human girl agreed. She checked the time on her phone. "We better hurry up. The limo's gonna be here in five minutes."
Cruz burst out laughing. "I guess some things have changed."
Fudge just gave a good-natured shrug. "So, we like to splurge every once in a while... But who doesn't?"
Yeah, I headcanon Cruz as a vegetarian. I think she'd think other animals are too cute to eat (like crabs!).
By the way, does anybody get Fudge's reference?
