I was sitting in my room one day when I got this strange urge to draw Toad with a tongue-ring. Unfortunately, I wasn't prepared to draw the picture the way I wanted to, BUT, I did get this freaky fic stuck in my head. This was my very first official fic ever, so I hope you like it.
This particular one is centered around the Evo villains. It's kinda odd, mostly meant for a laugh. I hope you enjoy it.
*Crash*
"Would you quit doing that?" Pietro hissed, turning swiftly to Lance, who had just used his powers to tumble another trash can.
At such a demand, Lance would usually retort in some semi-violent manner. But, today, this evening, he decided not to persue the matter. He shrugged and leaned against the stone wall. It was a short wall and came no higher than their waists. An utter silence sorounded them for a good five minutes.
Abruptly and out of nowhere, Pietro suddenly spurted out, " Hey, I got my ear pierced yesterday."
His friends looked at him a moment. A blank stare if he ever knew one. But, he was a fast talker. Perhaps his words just needed to sink in. So, to save the time, as he hated to wait, he pointed to his left earlobe. The ring he wore was a small one in the shape of a lightning bolt.
" Priss," Lance whispered out with a chuckle."
" Hey, shut up!" Pietro called back quickly, raising his fist.
" Actually, I was thinking about getting a piercing, myself," Blob smiled in Pietro's defense.
" Prissy," Lance repeated, " I'd rather have a tatoo...right here." He pointed to his arm, just under his shoulder. " A heart with a yellow banner across it. On the banner it'd say Rock My World."
He was now the target of the blank stares. Then, they were again hit by the utter silence.
" How did we come to talk about body art, anyway?" Blob asked, as though he seriously was absent-minded.
" I was showing off my piercing. C'Mon, Lance, ya have to admit...it fits me."
He twisted his face and sighed, " Very distinguished, Pietro."
Overhearing the whole conversation, Toad leaped onto the wall between Lance and Pietro and settled into his usual squat. He cast them both a crude grin.
" If one piercing is distinguished," he began, " Then, I must be marvelous!" He stuck out his long tongue to reveal 30 separate loop rings along his tongue. He recieved those same stares and that same silence. But, to break the ice, Blob gave a squint and began, "Doesn't that hurt?"
" Hey, hey, hey, hey!" Came the reply, " I'm the Toad. I'm resiliant!"
" You mean retarded," Lance growled, grabbing Toad's tongue and flinging him onto the blacktop. The rings popped off his tongue and scattered about. " I knew it! Clip-ons! Just like the ties you wear to church!"
" Man, you ruined my joke!" Toad whined. His jokes were never really appriciated anyway. But...silence again. The four of them stood, staring at each other blankly.
"So, now what do we do?" Toad asked, leaping back onto the wall. He stretched out one leg, then the other, keeping them from going numb.
" Why don't we..." Blob drifted off. Meanwhile, Pietro and Lance continued an argument suddenly they had started earlier that day.
"...No way, Lance. Cheetarah from Thundercats is better."
" You're biased, Pietro!" Lance hissed back, " He-Man is better!"
" I'm getting bored," Toad interrupted. " By the way, Johny Quest is better."
Both slapped him for that remark. Lance looked down at him as he fell to the blacktop again, " Toad, you are such a..."
" ...Movie!" Blob spit out.
" Huh?" The three asked in unison. Blob began again, " Movie! Let's sneak into a movie!"
A brief silence and then a trio of sly smiles.
" Alright," from Pietro.
" Cool," from Toad, who had given up on sitting on the wall and squatted at everyone's feet.
" Sounds good to me," from Lance. Satisfied on the choice, they walked off towards the theatre. The silence was again broken by the previous argument.
" I still say Cheetarah is better."
" No way, Dude! He-Man!"
" I've always liked Godzilla," Blob added, becoming involved.
" What's wrong with Johny Quest?"
The three turned back to the straggling co-hort and yelled in unison, " Shut up, Toad!"
