Banjo and Kazooie sat at home, Banjo sat in his recliner with a bowl of honeycombs in his lap while Kazooie had poured a few bowls of birdseed into the backpack and munched away at it. Gruntilda had been defeated again and the duo's lives had been peaceful ever since. No visitors, or packages besides their groceries which they ordered online via instakart.
"Hey Banjo we need to get a gym membership or a treadmill at least, we're gaining weight again, and I am not about to let myself get fat like before," Kazooie complained to Banjo.
Banjo poked his pudgy tummy, "hm, you have a point", he took out his phone and looked up treadmills, there was a nice one for ten thousand, "hey here's a nice one Kazooie."
"That's perfect", she pressed buy and they paid for it with his credit card. "Can't wait until it gets here, I'm gonna be lookin fine!"
"You already do Kazooie", Banjo said, tucking his phone back into his pocket.
"Oh, well yeah I may look good now but my waistline has grown a little since a few weeks ago! We both need to go on a diet or go to the gym or both!"
"Well the diets are not gon- Oh oh be quiet, be quiet, my show is on!" He said excitedly as the commercials ended and a television show came on the screen. he leaned in towards the television with a big smile on his face, a loud bonk was heard and he started laughing hysterically, "HAHAHAHA THAT GUY GOT HIT IN THE HEAD WITH A COCONUT!"
Kazooie pecked Banjo over the head, angrily "ouch! What was that for?" He said looking at her annoyed while he rubbed his head.
"You think getting bonked on the head is so funny I thought I'd try it", she said with a cheeky smile.
"First, it was a coconut, and it wasn't me either, so not funny."
"It's funny to me", she did it again and Banjo grabbed her by the neck and started yanking on her, making her kaw and squawk loudly in shock and pain, she flapped her wings frantically trying to get released.
"Is it funny now?! Huh? Is it?!"
"No, no it's not, please Banjo stop, I'm sorry!"
The door swung open and Bottles waddled in, "Hello you two, I have a-gah! I'm so sorry I didn't know you two were doing it, I Swear I'm not a perv!" He squealed covering his blushing face but was peeking at them from between his little mole claws nevertheless.
"I'd beg to differ", Banjo said unamused, "besides we aren't even doing anything dirty. I'm just… teaching Kazooie some manners", he said glaring at her. "Isn't that right, Kazooie?"
"Y-yeah, sure, manners!" She said, forcing a smile.
"Oh thank goodness, anyway, I have a lot to do today, so I'll get right to the point. Everyone and I do mean everyone wants to have a party at Gruntilda's old lair. Thing is I need your permission since you legally own it, so just say okay and I'll be on my way."
"Get lost goggle boy, no moles aloud in our lair."
"Kazooie! We will need to talk it over Bottles."
"Well hurry up and do it, we don't have much time!"
"Bottles, Halloween isn't until October thirty-first, there's plenty of time."
Kazooie pointed a wing at the calendar, it was two weeks until said date.
"Oh."
"So, yes or yes?" Bottles asked with a hopeful smile.
Banjo looked to Kazooie and she shook her head. Then she smiled as an idea came to her. "Twenty dollar entry fee!"
"Sounds good to me", Banjo said.
"Sheesh, you guys aren't just lazy youre cheap too, fine, I'll let everyone know and get started on preparations."
"Ugh, now I know this is gonna be lame." Kazooie said with a groan.
"And why is that bird brain?"
"Well", Banjo started, "you aren't really the partying type."
"Excuse me?! I may not look it, but I'll Have you know I was quite the party animal in college!"
"Well you're right about one thing, you don't look it", Kazooie said.
"Whatever, it'll be a costume party so get a costume. Or don't, you own the place so whatever", Bottles said as he walked out and was about to close it but came back in, "oh I almost forgot to mention, your sister is coming in a week so you might want to clean the place up a bit."
"Wait what?! Why didn't she write to me?!" Banjo asked.
"She did, your mailbox is full of letters from her", this got Banjo up, Kazooie got up too and walked over, the mail box and the ground around it was covered in letters.
"Whoa, I need to get out more."
"We need to get out more", Kazooie corrected, staring at the letters in shock.
"Well I'll be on my way now, I've got lots of work to do, have fun with the realization that you're a horrible brother!" Bottles said hopping into a mole hole and disappearing from sight.
Banjo picked up a letter and looked at it sadly.
"What now, Banjo?"
Banjo looked at her and then to his house
Five minutes later
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAH! THAT GUY GOT HIT IN THE HEAD WITH A COCONUT!"
Kazooie was on the clothes hanger choking on an entire pizza that they ordered, and Tootie was completely forgotten.
Banjo and Kazooie were sitting at home playing Halo on xbox live with some friends, Donkey Kong, Diddy, and Clungo.
"Hey I heard you're having a party next week?" Donkey Kong asked.
"Yeah, bottles is setting everything up, why?"
"We got invited! Diddy cried in joy."
"ClUngO inViTeD ToO!"
"Oh great, even the freak is gonna be there", Kazooie spat.
"Kazooie!" Banjo berated.
"WhY BirD SsSo MeaN ToO ClUnGo?!" He whined.
"What, it's true!" She then shot and killed him.
"NooOoOoO!" Clungo cried in rage.
"Kazooie stop killing our team members." Banjo said annoyed.
"Ugh fine."
A knock suddenly came to their door, "that must be the pizza." Banjo said.
"I'll get it,'' Kazooie said, getting up.
"Dude you seriously need to lay off the pizza, this is your third one today." DK said.
"It's fine we're getting a treadmill, it's a good one."
"You know you've gotta put that together right?"
"We should be fine,'' Banjo said.
"Hey Kazooie!"
Banjo's head whipped to the door, "Tootie?"
"The one and only!" She called as she walked inside. "Hey, Banjo! Did you miss me?" She asked happily.
"Yeah, I guess I have."
"What do you mean you guess?! It's been over a decade since I last saw you!" She walked over and pulled him into a hug and Banjo returned it though not with as much enthusiasm.
"You've grown, you're almost as tall as me now", he said looking her over. Her body had matured and she had a more curved figure and mature body. Her hair was longer and swapped from pigtails to straight hair left Down.
"Yeah like I said it's been years Banjo", she said with a big smile.
I see you let your hair down.
"Yeah, you like it? I felt I had grown out of the pigtails ya know?"
"I agree you look way better with it down", Kazooie said.
"Thanks, I think so too", she said, sliding her fingers through it.
"So you guys are trying to lose weight huh?
"How'd you know? "
"The treadmill outside."
"Oh, it's early, cool."
"nice!"
Tootie giggled at this, "glad to see you two are caring about your health, you might even make it into smash!."
He scoffed, "yeah as if, I've been trying to get into there for years now." he said as he brought in the treadmill.
"You gotta have faith Banjo", she said to him. "Oh, I almost forgot, I've got something for the both of you", she went into her bag which she had strung on her shoulders and pulled out a pumpkin and skeleton costumes. "Here, I made them myself."
"Well thank you, Tootie… it's very… nostalgic." Banjo said with a forced smile
"Thanks! This is a pretty cool costume!" Said Kazooie.
"Yeah, you've got some talent Tootie," Banjo said.
The two of them slipped into their costumes and posed, ``how do we look?" Banjo asked.
"Spookified!" Tootie said happily, let's go get something to eat in the Jinjo village.
"Mm, I dunno, we don't get out much."
"I know, which is why we need to get you out!" She said.
"I'm down!" Kazooie said happily.
"Ugh fine." Banjo said and they left and went to the Jinjo village, "so, how's college treating you Tootie?" Banjo asked as they walked through the town.
"It's great, I'm one of the best in my class, there's just a few that are better, way better I'm completely outclassed by them."
"I bet that's rough, I'd be jealous out of my wits!" Kazooie said.
"I was at first but then as the years went by we became great friends." they sat down in a diner and a Jinjo came up to them, hey what can I get you?"
They ordered and caught up some more.
"Banjo? Buddy? Ya there?" Dk called from the other side of the microphone.
"They left us! Dude, what the heck?" Diddy said angrily.
"ClUnGo GlAd ThAt BiRD GoNe!"
"Yeah, dude, we all are, Banjo needs to dump that chicken, '' Donkey Kong said.
