This takes place some time late season 2, I guess. I'm gonna say shortly after "Crystal Clear" but I don't think the *exact* timing is super important.

Carefully holding onto her bags, Star pushed open the front door and stepped into the Diaz's living room. Marco was reclining on the couch, laughing heartily at the program on tv.

"Hey, Star!" he greeted as he fought to control his laughter. "How was the mall?"

The princess set her bags down beside the couch and flopped down beside her best friend. "It was great! Janna and I found soooo much great stuff!" She turned her attention to the television. "Whatcha watchin' that's so funny?"

Marco quickly explained. "It's called Foot to Foot to Foot 3: The Quest for Foot to Foot to Foot 2. It's the fourth wall-breaking parody sequel to Foot to Foot to Foot, which is the fourth-wall-breaking parody of the Mackie Hand movie Hand to Hand to Hand 3: Hand to Hand to Hand Too."

Star stared at him blankly, blinking several times in rapid succession, but said nothing.

Marco shifted uncomfortably. He wasn't used to Star being this quiet for so long. "What?"

Star brought forth her wand from behind her back and aimed the crystal at the air above Marco's head. From the pink beam of magical energy it produced materialized a simple gold crown, which plopped onto Marco's cranium. Then she stood from the couch, held her wand at arm's length over her best friend's face as he looked up at her in utter confusion, and stifled an amused laugh as she proclaimed, "I hear-by declare you to be Marco, King of Dorks!"

"'King of Dorks'?" Marco laughed. "Why?"

Star giggled, unable to withhold her laughter any longer. "Because I didn't understand a single word you just said, but it sounded super-duper dorky!" She retrieved her bags from the floor and headed for the stairs. "Anyway, if you need me, I'll be in my room!"

"Okay!" she heard him call back.

Star lugged her haul up to her tower bedroom and closed the door, dropping her bags once again and crashing facedown into her bed with a mournful groan.

"Uhhhhnnnnnnnnn...Why is the King of Dorks so adorable?"

The premise for writing this is that, one day at work, I thought to myself "I wonder what the most needlessly long and confusing sentence I could write is." You know which sentence I'm talking about.

The whole "Fourth wall-breaking parody" thing is basically the SVTFOE universe's version of Spaceballs. I don't know if it's true or not, but my Uncle told me that, if there had ever been a sequel to Spaceballs, Mel Brooks wanted to call it "Spaceballs 3: The Search for Spaceballs 2." I thought that would make for a needlessly complicated sentence.

Now you see what I mean about these chapters (individual stories) having drastically varying lengths.
