Third floor commoon room, Late Monday night

Sep 25, 2007 00:03

Peter was somewhat restless tonight. If he were in New York, he's probably go out webswinging. Unfortunately Fandom's buildings weren't tall enough. That meant late night infomercials ( Read more... )

The gremlin currently hiding under a nearby chair was irritated. It'd climbed all this way to watch TV and this student was hogging the remote and falling asleep to boot. So not fair.

When it looked like Peter was really out of it, the gremlin snuck from beneath the chair and around behind where Peter was sitting. Carefully, it scaled the back until it could just peek over and see the remote held in Peter's hand. Teeth bared, the gremlin threw itself over the back of the couch, intent on biting the hand holding the remote in an attempt to make it let go.

Peter's spider-sense woke him up, but just a few moments too late. "Crap!" he yelled as the teeth sunk in. He shook his arm, looking to fling the gremlin across the room.

Well, that didn't work.

Realizing it wouldn't win, the gremlin headed for the nearest vent and disappeared down it.

Peter braced himself for whatever was going to happen to him. He just hoped it wouldn't be too bad.

Like that was possible.

Peter as an infomercial host! peter__parker September 25 2007, 05:21:21 UTC

The venom sank in and Peter walked up by the television. "Welcome to our show! You may think that a good television remote could cost you, fifty, seventy-five, or even one hundred and THIRTY dollars! But you'd be wrong. If you order this universal remote during the next twenty minutes, you can get it for the low, low price of three payments of twelve ninety-nine!"

Peter waited for the applause to subside. "But that's not all! I'll also throw in the batteries to use it!"

Naminé heard the announcer voice and peered her head into the room.

"Who are you speaking to?" she asked.

Re: Peter as an infomercial host! peter__parker September 25 2007, 05:26:36 UTC

"All the viewers at home!" Peter answered. "And you! You see, this remote control isn't just any remote. It's a universal remote! It can work on any device in your home or spaceport!"

Re: Peter as an infomercial host! palestshadow September 25 2007, 05:28:59 UTC

"Can it really?" Naminé smiled. "And if I have no spaceport? I should hate to be missing out."

Peter sells something else! peter__parker September 25 2007, 05:30:58 UTC

"Next up, we have the THIRD FLOOR COMMON ROOM COUCH!" Peter waited for the applause to subside. "You may wonder how we got the rights to sell this artifact, but if I told you, I'd have to kill you! Hahaha! But seriously, we'll be selling licenses to kill later this hour! Anyway, how much do you think a couch like this might cost? Two hundred dollars? Three hundred dollars? Don't be crazy! This is a school couch! There have probably been naked people on it, which lets us sell it for the low, low price of three dollars and ninety-seven cents!"

Unable to sleep, Z found her way to the common room. "Dude, are you selling the couch?" she asked incredulously.

Re: Peter sells something else! peter__parker September 25 2007, 05:45:44 UTC

"Another question from the audience!" Peter said. "Let's give her a hand!"

"Now I wouldn't say I'm selling the couch. At this price, I'm practically GIVING IT AWAY!"

Re: Peter sells something else! multiplez September 25 2007, 05:49:01 UTC

"Okay," Z said in her best 'humoring the crazy' tone. "I have another question. Why are you selling the couch?"

And now a word from an ACTUAL USER OF THESE PRODUCTS! peter__parker September 25 2007, 05:51:32 UTC

"I've said that these are the best products that money can buy, but don't take my word for it. Just ask one of our satisfied customers!"

Peter ducked down, removed his button-down shirt, and tied his hair back with a rubber band before speaking in a higher octave. It was like he was someone else entirely. "I never thought there was room in my life for good, cheap stuff," Peter said. "But now I know, there IS. I bought a roll of toilet paper for five three payments of two dollars and got it in the mail in only three weeks. I don't know what you'd call that kind of service when it comes to fresh toilet paper, but I call it 'good.'"

Peter pulled the rubber band out and put his button-down back on. "Thank you for those kind words."

And now, Peter snaps out of it! peter__parker September 25 2007, 14:01:46 UTC

"Next up we have MY IMMORTAL SOUL. You may say, 'Hey, you're crazy!' And I'd tell you, 'I'm only crazy about getting you the best deal possible! Now, I... I..." Peter shook his head as the venom wore off. "Um. My soul's not for sale. Um. I'm going to bed. Night!"

Peter ran off to his room.

"Well, that's no fun," Z pouted.
