Here's a brand new drabble for Milo Murphy and Friends! Anyway, enjoy!


It was a quiet day in Swamp City... maybe... too quiet.

On the streets, Milo, Zack and Melissa were walking together, the latter two being a little cautious as they never knew when Murphy's Law was about to strike down.

Milo then turned and saw the pistachio stand nearby. Milo stopped as he put his hand on his chin, as in deep in thought. Melissa and Zack noticed as Zack asked, "What's on your mind, Milo?"

"I don't know if it's just me, but... have you ever noticed that pistachio stand?" Milo asked, pointing to the pistachio stand, being run by Vinnie Dakota and Balthazar Cavendish.

Zack and Melissa looked over and paused as Melissa squinted. "Now that you mention it, I have seen that pistachio stand before..."

"Of course you've seen it before, they're about everywhere in this world!" Zack laughed.

"Yeah, but... run by the same two guys, though?" Melissa asked.

Zack blinked as he noticed the two men behind the pistachio stand arguing with each other. "Now that you mention it, whenever we see a pistachio stand, those two are always there. The football game, outside the movies... I think I might have seen them around my first day!"

"I know, right? It's so... strange!" Melissa said as they were turning to each other.

Milo, Melissa and Zack then turned towards each other as if in thought... as Milo shrugged. "Maybe they just go around."

"Maybe so..." Melissa said. "But still... kinda conspicuous..."

"Or maybe I'm hungry and want some pistachios." Milo smiled as he rubbed his stomach.

Zack heard his stomach growl as he smiled. "Maybe that's it."

Melissa shrugged. "Whatever you guys say. Let's get some snacks."

But once the three turned... they saw the pistachio stand had disappeared.

"Weird..." Melissa said. "Wasn't the stand just there?"

"Yeah..." Zack said, frowning in suspicion. "I guess they really do go around..."

"Guess that's a story for another time." Milo smiled as he motioned the two over. "Come on, you guys, let's keep going to the park."

Melissa and Zack nodded as they followed pretty closely behind Milo. A little unknown to the three was that nearby, Vinnie and Balthazar were pushing the pistachio cart carefully.

"Come on, will you? We need to keep these pistachios safe!" Cavendish said, turning to his partner.

"Oh, relax, we'll do it. I mean, sure, we botched a job here or there, but this time, I think we're on the right track with this one." Dakota said with confidence.

"I just don't want to get yelled at by Mr. Block again with YOUR incompetence." Cavendish frowned. "And don't you dare ask me why."

Vinnie and Balthazar kept pushing the cart in silence... until Vinnie gave a small smirk as he said in one word. "Why?"

The man in the 1870s clothes could only shake his head. He could tell that this was going to be a long day...


Okay, a little shorter drabble than expected, and I do apologize for it, but it was the best I could do... especially when writing for these mysterious pistachio salesmen voiced by none other than the creators of the show. But I'm sure as the show makes more episodes, we'll get some more story with Vinnie Dakota and Balthazar Cavendish. By the way, I'm surprised the Fandom wiki doesn't even note their cameos in other episodes... you got to have a trained eye to spot them in the background, but I DEFINITELY know that they were pushing their pistachio cart in "Rooting for the Enemy". Maybe they were in the background in other episodes too, I don't know... but I'm going to keep a close eye out... and so should you! Anyway, read, review, criticize and suggest, folks!
