A/N Ugh, loooooong delay. I got stuck on one of the themes. Well, it's over now, so here ya go!

041. Teamwork
Columbia would often spy on Magenta and Riff Raff as they did their daily chores. And, most of the time, she found herself rather envious. The two siblings made the perfect team. They worked together with everything they did, and every job was finished quickly and perfectly. Afterwards, they would both congratulate each other for a job well done, as if they truly appreciated the other's help. The groupie would only get depressed by all of this. She and Frank were the exact opposite of these two. They fought constantly, disagreed on pretty much everything, and hardly ever worked together.

042. Standing Still
What was the Time Warp? Columbia wasn't sure. She could sing the song, and had even made of her own verse. But that did not answer her question. She needed to know what it really was. The Transylvanians practically worshipped the idea… so why could she not understand it?
There was only one time that she had felt it. And it was when she and Frank had first kissed. For a moment – maybe even only a second – time had stood still. They had been the only people on the planet. She had been in a complete and utter time warp.

043. Dying
What's happening? Columbia found herself thinking one night. Frankie used to mean so much to me. And now… there's nothing. These thoughts scared the groupie. She did not want her life to change. She wanted to still love Frank, and she wanted Frank to still love her. She wanted things to be just like they had been when she first came to the Frankenstein Place. She wanted everything to be exciting and unexpected. However, things had only been repetitive and dull. And they fought more than they kissed nowadays.
There could be no doubt about it – their relationship was dying.

044. Two Roads
When Frank had invited her to come live with him, she knew whatever choice she made would change her life forever. Her future depended on this choice. If she were to go with him, she would live the rest of her life with the love of her life and his freaky servants. If she were to stay… would she ever find someone like Frank again? Probably not. She would probably end up going to college, marrying some boring rich man, and having children. Then she would die, and nothing exciting would have happened.
So, obviously, she chose the Frankenstein Place.

045. Illusion
There are those who say that life is an illusion. But not Columbia. Life does matter. She wants everything she does to matter. This is one of the reasons she is with Frankie. Because everything he does matters to her. It is as if he knows exactly how to live his life. He is always in control. Columbia wishes she could be like that. She wishes she could live her life in the present, with no worry of the past or the future.
If life is all just a part of the imagination, she wants to just keep on imagining.

046. Family
Neither of them grew up in a great home.
Columbia only had a mother and a sister. She never knew her father and her mother practically did not exist. She never did anything to help her daughters grow up.
Frank was a prince. But he only had a mother. And she hardly ever paid attention to him. And he could not have any friends, seeing as he was "royalty" and everyone else was a "commoner".
But at the Frankenstein Place, everyone was a big family. Everyone could count on each other to be there. That's what made it so perfect.

047. Creation
"But Frankie… what do ya mean? I thought… I thought you were my boyfriend. I thought we were gonna be together forever." The soft, hurt tone the groupie was using almost made Frank regret what he was doing. Almost. He sighed and shook his head.
"Columbia, I'm sorry, but… I just need something different. And with Riff Raff's intelligence, my new creation should be done in no time." He smiled and looked rather arrogant. Columbia found herself feeling very dizzy. She sniffed, tears running down her face.
"You can't do this Frankie. You can't replace me with some stupid creation!"

048. Childhood
Columbia's earliest memory is sitting in her room, alone. She was always alone when she was little. Even when her sister was born she was alone. Even when she was with her mother, she still felt alone. Because she was different. She just did not feel right with those other people.
Frank seems to understand. Columbia has often wondered if he had the same sort of problems when he was little. They both were different. Outliers. Neither of them had anyone to be with when they were little.
But now they had each other, and that was all that mattered.

049. Stripes
When Frank called Columbia "soft" for not liking to look at pain, she took it as a direct insult. It was not that she was too weak to handle it. In fact, she could usually handle any amount of pain inflicted to her. It was watching someone else in pain that bothered her. This was why, when Frank got upset at Riff Raff and planned to whip him, the groupie had been so keen to stop him. She did not want anyone else in pain because of something she or her boyfriend did. Did that really qualify as being soft?

050. Breaking the Rules
Most people weren't so… brave. They weren't so courageous that others around them felt ashamed of being… themselves. In fact, compared to most people, Frank was downright… wrong. He didn't act at all like how a person was supposed to act. He hardly ever did the things expected of normal people. Maybe this had something to do with the fact that he wasn't a normal person – he was the prince of an alien planet. However, Columbia did not necessarily mind. In fact, that was part of what she loved about him so much – he was willing to break the rules.
