Transcript
{Cut to Zarel's Room}
ZAREL: I baked you a pie! {falsetto} What flavor? {normal} Email flavor.
subj: anime
what it you had an anime and would it be like naruto
derek t.
{Zarel pronounces "Naruto" as "Nar-uh-tuh"}
ZAREL: {typing} Well I don't know what you mean by this...Narutuh you speak of. But I know what anime is. Anime's weird, but it can be mildly entertaining in ways. But what would I look like in one of those? That's a tough question, and I'm gonna need some plotting for this...someone toss me a piece of paper or something!
{Zoom out, Zarel turns toward his door, and a paper airplane and a pencil fly in the room hitting him in both his eyes}
ZAREL: Ow! OOOWW!!! Holy...ergh! {falls off chair, gets back up} Alright...let's see if I have any eyesight left to draw this guy successfully. {opens eyes, which are squinted and pinkish, as well as tearing a bit} Let's see...
{Zoom in on the notebook paper}
ZAREL: Alright...so where to start? So anyway, first, my head. Well...for my eyes, let's just say I wear shades. Shades are cool, right? {Zarel draws a pair of shades on the paper} Hm...ooh! And maybe I wouldn't be a normal dragon. Maybe I'd be one of those...Eastern types. There's an idea!
{Zarel draws an eastern dragon head around the shades with three horns similar to his}
ZAREL: Okay, so we got my head down, now for the rest of me. So I guess I'd have just a normal shaped body. {draws a Stinkoman shaped torso with a tuft of fur on the chest} Gloves...and pretty big hands... {draws gloves} A belt... and awesome robot boots. {draws the lower part of him} Don't forget the tail! {draws tail}
{Cut back to the Cappy}
ZAREL: Alright, so that's me in an anime. As for a name, I have no clue, I've never been good at coming up with names. Well, I guess that wraps this one up, let's see if I got another email... {clicks email icon}
subj: the futureZarel:
- Skub
What do you think you'll be like in the future?
Heck, what do you think Earth will be like
in the future? I'd like to see your perspective
on it.
ZAREL: {typing} I'm glad you asked me, Skub, because now I have an opportunity to take my newly made character and take him out for a test run like it was Second Life or something! Activate my_vision_of_the_future_years.exe A.S.A.NOW!
{Cut to Planet K, Stinkoman is hitting his tractor from Twenty-THANKsty-Six with a wrench}
STINKOMAN: Why won't this thing turn into a giant robot? They told me that wrenching it will make it grow! Whyyyy is this not working at all?
{1-Up walks in}
1-UP: Stinkoman! There's this guy I saw today and I've never seen him before!
STINKOMAN: What? Is he perhaps...asking for a CHALLENGE?!
{Cut to Za Long, standing in another section of the City, bouncing Cheatball like a basketball}
ZA LONG: {to himself} Dribble dribble shoot! Dribble dribble shoot shoot-
STINKOMAN: Hey! Za Long! WHAAAAAAAAAAT are you doing?
{Za Long turns to Stinkoman, then he starts spinning Cheatball on his finger}
ZA LONG: Check it out. {tosses Cheatball onto his foot and starts to juggle him on his knee}
STINKOMAN: Yeah, impressive moves, but just don't shake him up too much. You won't like the result.
ZA LONG: {catches Cheatball} Heh. {smirks}
STINKOMAN: Huh? Evil smirk?
{Za Long begins to shake Cheatball who starts to flash white.}
STINKOMAN: AAH! Stop it! You don't know what that will dooooo!
{Suddenly, the scene freezes and everything but Cheatball darkens}
CHEATBALL: Cheatball.
{Cheatball explodes in a Poison Rain Vornado fashon}
ZA LONG, STINKOMAN, AND 1-UP: WAAAAAGH!
{Fade back to the Cappy}
ZAREL: {typing} Yeah, that's what I predict. Green explosions. Alright, good night everyone!
