This came from an episode of That 70's Show I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate into the Bradbury Jars. Here it goes. Mark and Jason stood outside Mark's shack, waiting impatiently for Princess. Suddenly, her shriek filled the air and she came running out of the shack as if the Grim Reaper himself was in pursuit. "What the...? Jason muttered, reaching for his gun as Mark intercepted Princess. "What is it?" Mark asked as he looked towaards the door to his shack. Her green eyes were wide with fear and she was shaking. She sputtered and shook, then stamped her foot and shuddered again. She looked back at the shack. "Princess?" Jason pressed, starting forward, but she waved her hands up and down as if she wanted to fly away. "I thought it was a velvet pillow," she said in a shaking voice. Mark frowned at her. "I don't have any velvet pillows," he told her. Her eyes fixed on him. "It looked so soft I ran my hand over it but then it moved." Now she had both boys' attention. "It was a spider." Now Jason started to laugh, but it was a nervous laugh. He hated spiders. Princess pointed her finger at him in accusation. "It was gigantic," she told him. Jason warily took a few steps back from the door. Now it was Mark's turn to laugh at both of them. Princess turned her fear fueled ire onto him. "It was carrying a rat!" she snarled at him. Jason and Mark shared a look and then bolted for Jason's car, leaving Princess in their dust.

I think I'd be nervous of a spider that could carry a rat too!

Eek! Don't think I'd want to meet up with a spider who could take on a rat and win. I'm surprised Princess didn't run behind Jason yelling, "Shoot it! Shoot it! Get a Bird Missile! Get ten! Just get rid of it!" I know I would have!

And I can hear the guys saying, "That'll just make it mad!"

Jun narrowed her eyes and stared straight into his eyes answering his sarcasm with her own. "Yes, I was," she answered tartly, "but I didn't see you get these. Why?"
Hmm....is she thinking a little shoplifting's going on?

Red Impulse? Shoplift? That would be beneath him. But what is he up to?

Hopefully Princess' hair will grow back as fast as Penny's did on BBT! Becky, the only spiders I've seen big enough to carry a rat live on another continent, or in the Harry potter stories (which, come to think of it, was also another continent...)

EW - At least Mark didn't laugh. I really don't want to know what they all smelled like after not bathing for weeks on a mission.

That's nothing compared to the gargantuan bird eaters! (There's a post about them somewhere on this site....)

KT - that was too 'what if'. No wonder Shiro and Isao were confused.

Oh, no, RI would never (Becky's right; he would consider that completely beneath him). He added them to the pile when Jun looked away for a moment. Next time, she'll pay more attention! LOL

EW: Bad hair days happen to anyone ... but that bad hair day came with some pretty embarrassing memories! No wonder poor Jun wanted no reminders. KT: Amazing how in emotionally charged situations we tend to remember only what we think was said, as opposed to what was really said. But I think Nambu still has a long way to go with damage control here.

KT, I hope these boys grow up now! If they're needed for the team, they need to mature... and fast!
