The twins were relaxing on Sunday night, preparing for the coming day of classes, when Leslie, the younger, began to stumble over her words:
"I'm afraid—don't—flub bah—can talk..." The blonde shook her head, frustrated at her inability to make herself plainly understood.
As if to make her feel better, her sister's response resembled the childish nonsense language, ubbi-dubbi: "Whub-aye dub-oo cub-all mub-ee mub-ush mub-outh?" Now it was Amber's turn to frown in frustrated confusion.
"Shubbah-dubah-floo?"
Amber rolled her eyes, and the peanuts-inspired-gibberish that issued form her mouth dripped with annoyance. "Wah-woh-wah-woh-wah..."
"Grrrrr-ARRRR-errr-urrr," the blonde growled, frustration turning to anger at the incompressible syllables.
"RAOAOAOAFFFF!" Her dark-haired sister retorted, but when Leslie roared in a similar fashion, the older twin quailed with a meek. "Eep!"
Leslie found herself able to form words once more, though not exactly all the right ones. "Who did...the chameleon circuit...break again?"
Amber took a breath, making an effort now to be intelligible. "You mean the psychic translator software? Maybe dad—"
"Amber! Did you break it?"
The girl in question glared at her sister, finishing the thought that had been interrupted: "Leslie, am I anywhere near the TARDIS? No? Then how could I damage the software? Dad must've crash-landed again somewhere and knocked it temporarily off-kilter. At least he's fixed it, now."
The younger had to grant that point, but she was still determined to get the last words in (now that she could):
"I swear, if that happens during my in-class presentation next week..."
So, yeah. I wasn't expecting the next installment to come so soon, but it did, and now the twins have names: Leslie Amelia Song and Amber Rorie Song. Funnily enough, this one happened with a friend of ours in the room, but fortunately, she's a fellow cosplayer, so she understood once we explained what it was she'd just witnessed.
So, this is now a series, but I'll still list it as complete, since I don't know when/if inspiration will strike again. (I'm pretty sure it will though, since we have to introduce a third character—the twins' companion!) Hopefully, you all enjoyed it yet again.
