Disclaimer: They're STILL not mine. Except for Beth. She's so totally mine.
A/N: I'm playing around with the format, testing the waters. If it is confusing or bad (or good) let me know. Based on reviews, I'll keep on with interviews along with the stories.

B.S.: Good morning. This is Beth Silva. It is 11:05 AM on May 5, 2071. I am here on the Bebop with the interviewee. Please state your name for the transcript.
E.4.: (singsong) I am Ms. Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV. I come in the spirit of peace, friendship, and sharing…
B.S.: Great!
E.4.: …of chocolate.
B.S.: Umm. Ok. I'm going shopping later. I'll see about picking you up something.
E.4. squeals and claps feet.
B.S.: Great. We can get started. Ok, Ms. Pepelu…
E.4.: Why does Beth call Ed Pepelu?
B.S.: Well, my brother's name is Eddie. I feel weird calling you Ed when you are exactly the opposite of the Ed I know.
E.4.: Aaaah. (nods)
B.S.: Do you mind?
E.4.: It is now time for Ed to be upside-down.
E.4. goes into handstand. Am impressed at balance.
B.S.: Alrighty. Just stay close enough so the recorder can pick up your voice. Ok. If we can get started…
E.4. walking out door, still on hands. This probably not good.
E.4.: (laughs, squeals) (inaudible)
B.S.: Umm. You don't want to do this now?
E.4. is down the hallway.
E.4.: (inaudible)
B.S.: (shouting) I said, "You don't want to do this now?"
E.4.: (inaudible)
B.S.: (dejected) I've lost her. Oh well. Interview terminated by participant 11:07 AM. Will attempt rescheduling.
