Transcript

{Cut to Zarel's Room}

ZAREL: You know what time it is! Time for me to answer another dumb question from yous guys!

subj: foxx

Zarel,
I know you and Foxx are pals, but don't you think you should be spending time with him more?
I'd hate to see such a good friendship fall.
Bye,

Friend Guy

{Zarel reads the salutation as "Bye-Bye the friend guy."}

ZAREL: {typing} What do you mean Foxx and I don't spend enough time together?! Are you questioning our friend bond of friendship? We're total biffles!

FOXX: What are you even talking about?

ZAREL: See? Look! {Zarel grabs Foxx and hugs him tightly}

FOXX: AGCK...can't...breathe...

ZAREL: Beeeest friends-

{Foxx punches Zarel who then lets him go}

ZAREL: OOF! Foxx, what the crap, man?

FOXX: First of all, I've only really gotten to know you once and that was when I first moved in. Well rather I moved back since the Foxxhole was there since 2007 or so. It was just an empty crater those two years and now it's remodeled!

ZAREL: Can I see?

FOXX: You're...kinda big for it. Your shoulders would touch the ceiling. And second of all, please don't choke me ever again.

ZAREL: Alright. So let's go see your humble abode!

FOXX: About that...it's kind of being fumigated from when Strong Bad lobbed rotten eggs into it when I left the trapdoor unlocked.

ZAREL: Dang! Well then, what else can we do?

{Cut to the Movie Theater}

MAN: {from movie} And that's when I discovered the DNA evidence had disappeared!

ZAREL: Man, oh, man. I haven't seen that gag since 2008!

FOXX: You were never here in 08. How do you know?

ZAREL: Um...EbscoHost? Whatever.

HOMESTAR: {offscreen, singing} Ever and more! Ever and more! Ever and mo-

{Zarel tosses a brick behind him}

HOMESTAR: Oof! Crafty dragons and their rock candy. {eating sounds are heard, Zarel and Foxx raise their eyes in confusion}

{Cut to Marshmallow's L'est Stand}

FOXX: ...and that's when I realized that 50-pound weights are too much for my level! I'm still training on the 40s.

ZAREL: Odd. You claim to exercise but yet I see no sign of abs or rippedness. What's your secret?

{Homestar runs in in his waiter outfit, but he has a large bandage on his head}

HOMESTAR: Hello, what can I get for such a lovely couple?

ZAREL: Homestar...we're not dating. We're just two guys looking to hang out.

HOMESTAR: Alright. I'll leave you two lovebirds while I bring some soup for your eyes. {runs off}

ZAREL: Does Homestar seriously think we're dating?

FOXX: Is he seriously going to pour soup in our eyes?

{Cut to a hill at night. Foxx and Zarel lay there looking up at the stars}

FOXX: Man, I love moonlit nights. The stars are just like billions of sequins covering the canvas known as the night sky.

ZAREL: Jeez, no need to get poetic, bud! Just enjoy the breeze. Let the sound of the whistling wind calm your ears.

{Strong Sad can be heard moaning offscreen}

ZAREL: What is that?

{Pan out to show Strong Bad and The Cheat with a wagon full of mud pies}

STRONG BAD: Oh, that's just Strong Sad imitating some Ophelia's sad song from some book he's reading...what was it...Hamhock? Something like that?

THE CHEAT: Meh.

STRONG BAD: Whatever. Prepare for bombing!

{The Cheat begins tossing mud pies into the distance. Strong Bad joins in.}

ZAREL: And there goes my evening.

{Cut back to the Cappy}

ZAREL: {typing} So there you have it, Fried Goose. Foxx and I are as tight as my stomach when it cramps. I think our relationship as pals will live on even in the future years. Heck, maybe we'll become some elite fighting duo of dynamics! Who knows? Oh...to dream.

KITSUU: I was born ready!

Fun Facts

• "Biffle" is a common pronunciation of "BFFL" which means "best friends for life."
• Foxx mentions the Foxxhole existing back in 2007. Foxx was an old character of mine at that time, as he is seen in the earlier Aruseus Emails, an old fanstuff I stored on the Wiki User Wiki.
• The DNA Evidence gag wasn't last used until 2008 in the toon of the same name.
• Homestar's line: "Crafty dragons and their rock candy." references Family Guy, where Peter in a flashback breaks a disco ball thinking it's a pinata. After eating a shard of glass he proceeds to say: "Crafty Mexicans and their glass candy."
• Homestar mentioning pouring soup in the eyes refers to New Boots.
• Strong Sad and Strong Bad mention references to the Shakespeare drama Hamlet.
