(Another one shot for XL.)
"He's green."
"I think he's more blue."
"Both you idiotic crud munchers are wrong! He's teal."
Billy Numerous, See-More, and Gizmo glared at each other. All three of them had gotten into a (dumb) argument when Billy commented on XL Terrestrial's skin color, calling him green. This started an extremely long argument, because all three of them were really bored.
Kyd walked in and saw the three glaring at each other. 'Okay, what happened this time?' He signed. "The two idiots think that XL's skin is green. Its teal, I tell you!" Gizmo said. "No way, its totally green!" Billy complained. "Can you even tell with your sunglasses on, genius? It's blue!" See-More complained.
Kyd raised his eyebrows, then signed, 'Okay... really didn't want to know.'
Cheshire popped out from behind the couch. "You could just ASK him, you know." She said calmly. "Gah!" Billy fell off the couch in shock and Gizmo jumped half a foot. See-More just glanced at her and said, "Why were you listening anyway?" Cheshire shrugged. "Couldn't convince Kyd to teleport me to Steel. And I am bored."
Cheshire cleared her throat and said, "There he is now. Go ask." XL walked in and placed the sketch pad down. It was obvious he had not slept for a while. "I don't know... he looks kinda cranky." Billy said, swallowing nervously. "He is. He is having difficulties learning how to speak English." Cheshire remarked. XL flipped them off and grabbed the coffee mug and filled it to the brim.
Without even adding sugar, he swallowed the whole thing in one gulp. See-More winced. "Bad day?" XL grabbed his note pad and wrote, 'Bad week. The English language keeps avoiding my vocal cords.' See-More frowned and said, "Sorry man." XL shrugged and wrote, 'Not your fault. Now, what did you want to ask me?'
Both of the older members glanced down at Gizmo. He sighed and said, "Me and those idiots were arguing about what... color your skin is. So, is it teal, blue, or green?" XL blinked in surprise, then wrote, 'I... never really thought about it. I guess its green.'
Billy crowed and fist pumped. "Oh yeah! I'm right!" Gizmo glared and growled, "Darn it." "Wow, you actually properly said a cuss word." See-More said. "Darn it is not a cuss word!"
They were all interrupted by XL laughing. His laugh wasn't too strange... but he didn't laugh often. In fact, this was the first time any of them heard him laugh. XL was absolutely dying, leaning against the corner, just laughing his heart out.
Finally, XL breathed in and wrote, 'You guys have just made my day. Thank you.' He walked out, still grinning.
(Aww... XL is a nice guy. And I have actually had an argument with myself about what color XL was... Bye byes! Remember to review!)
