really amusing bad rentfic written by kait and me.. mocking all the angsty slashy rentfic's we've read (or written (-; )ok, this all stared with a "story starter" from renata, who was trying to get people to post. and kait and i were talking about how she'd make it all angsty and slashy . . .
renata's story starter:
Mark stared at the open can of olives. He liked olives. Particularly
black ones. One by one, he put an olive on each finger. Delightedly,
he ran into the next room. "Roger!! Roger, look!"
megan:
"as mark happily ate the olives off his fingers, he gasped, seeing roger pull out a stash, choking on the olive, mark fell to the floor, unconcious"\
kait:
"he choked on the olive and started to suffocate. Roger, because he's not to bright, thought that Mark was already dead and killed himself for being so selfish."
megan:
"just then, mimi ran in,"you guys!! maureen's caught in the subway tracks! come quick!!" seeing roger dead, and mark on the floor, obviously choking... and with olives on all but one finger, she moved over to mark and gave him the heimlich, the olive shot out and bounced off of roger's lifeless body"
kait:
"Mimi pulled Mark out of the loft to follow her without explaining. When they were halfway there, Mark finally asked what was wrong. "Maureen's caught in the subway tracks!" she exclaimed. Mark paused to consider this. "How long ago did she get caught?" "About ten minutes." "Mimi...trains run every five..." "
megan:
"mimi's face lost what little color it had, "then mark... that means..." mark fell to his knees holding his head in his olive fingered hands, "of if only you'd gotten there sooner... and if only roger wasn't such a moron! and if only... if ONLY I HADN'T EATEN THAT OLIVE" sobbing, mimi grabbed his hand and continued to pull mark towards the subway station, "we have to TRY to save her! we have to!" see, mimi wasn't to bright either..."
kait:
""This is all Roger's fault!" Mark sobbed as he followed Mimi down the stairs to the subway station, because of course *everything* is Roger's fault and everyone knows that."
megan:
"meanwhile... back in the loft, roger wasn't really dead! being that he's not too smart, he had failed in killing himself, cutting the *top* of his wrist rather than the bottom. in additon the that flaw, he had attempted to use mimi's ladybic razor, which was old, and not horribly sharp"
kait:
back at the subway station..."Oh my God! Mark Look!! There she is! She's okay!" Maureen was indeed okay, standing off to the side, plastered against the wall. She smiled at Mark and Mimi, and ran to greet them as the train finally pulled away. "MAUREEN!" shouted Mark. "Don't touch that third rail!" *FIIZZ!!* Too late.
megan:
"well, damn" said mark. together, he and mimi stood sobbing as police officers tried to control the crowd that had gathered to point and gawk at maureen, just then, roger came running down the stairs, looking for mark, who he thought to be dead. seeing mark and mimi in an embrace, he immediately assumed mimi was cheating again, and ran back out onto the street"
kait:
"Mark saw Roger run down and up the stairs over Mimi's shoulder. He gasped. Roger was DEAD!! He quickly let go of Mimi and ran after Roger to see where he was going. Mimi ran after Mark because...well, she felt like it. God, does everything everyone does have to be validated for you people?! Mark finally caught up with Roger. "Roger!" he cried. "I thought you were dead!!" Roger replied by socking him in the jaw. "But...but...why? Roger, can't you see I LOVE you??!" he sobbed from the ground."
megan:
"roger looked at mark... "no, i saw you... i SAW YOU, with MIMI, how could you mark, how could you!?" just then, mimi caught up, it had taken her longer because, as usual she was wearing three inch stilletto heeled boots... "roger... what the hell are you doing? and mark?! i thought you were seeing steve!!" realizing that she'd just let mark's secret slip, she clapped a hand over her mouth "i mean... uh... "
kait:
"Mark's lower lip trembled as his secret was let out. He burst into hysterical tears. Awww...how cute! Um..erm...I mean sad. "It's true! But he's using me!! It's lust, only lust, nothing REAL, not like what Roger and I feel for each other!! I'm sorry, Mimi, but what we have is--" Mark looked up at that moment. Roger and Mimi, so excited to find that they weren't cheating on each other, were making out. Mark frowled."
megan:
"just then, joanne ran up to them "hey guys, have you seen maureen" being that mark was in a bad mood, he simply grumbled "yeah, she's over there, in the subway"
kait:
""thanks Mark!" Joanne said cheerfully as she ran off to the subway. Mark 'hmph'ed and crossed his arms, glaring at Roger and Mimi as they broke apart. "Wait a second...the subway...you guys were in the subway..." Roger muttered, rubbing his temples as if trying to stimulate deep thought, even tho that was impossible. "A secret rendevous! You're all cheating on me with Maureen!!" Mimi rolled her eyes and bitchslapped, Roger, walking after Joanne and grumbling about guitar playing and loss of brain cells."
megan:
"roger looked around, confused by everything (manely would be very good as this roger) "mark, are you cheating on me with maureen?" mark grumbled angrily "well, if you'd ever pay attention to me roger... maybe i wouldn't be so tempted to go back to her. mimi was right when she said you were afraid to commit!" roger looked around "hey, where'd mimi go? wasn't she just here? kissing me? huh?"
kait:
"Mark sighed heavily. Why was he in love with Roger again? He honestly couldn't remember, except that it had something to do with hot pants, Frank Sinatra, and an oven-roasted turkey. Oh well. It didn't really matter, it was just a ConvenientPlotDevice, after all. "Roger, I can't believe you sometimes! I sit here pouring my heart out to you and all you can think about is Mimi!" Mark sobbed. "Um...yeah...so...do you know where she is?" Mark screamed and threw an olive at Roger."
megan:
"roger caught the olive and ate it. "jeeze man, if i'd known you were gonna be so emotional i wouldn't have asked... hey, you're a little worked up about mimi, are you sure she's not cheating one me with you?" mark rolled his eyes at roger "are you a total dolt?! i'm dating steve! you know, the guy with the diva shirt and poofy hat from the life cafe, not mimi!!" roger looked confused, "but, i thought you still loved maureen..." mark sighed "well, see, i love maureen, but steve's just so... well good, you know what i mean... but you... oh roger, i live for you!!" roger looked confused again "so dude, you're bi? i SO never would have guessed!"
kait:
"Mark was about two seconds away from killing Roger again, when Mimi came running out of the subway entrace. Well, sort of wobbling on her heels, but you get the point. "Mark! Roger! Anyone! Help!" Mark and Roger exchanged a look. "Deja vu..." Mimi hobbled up to them. "It's Joanne! She's so overcome with grief she's threatening to kill herself!" "Do you think they'll give us a group discount at the funeral home?" Mark mused. Mimi blinked at him. "Um, I mean, we have to stop her!"
kait:
they all ran towards the subway, except mimi, who hobbled after, cursing her boots, when the arrived, they saw that joanne had pulled a letter opener out of her breif case and was holding it to her neck, sobbing, mark yelled to her "joanne, i didnt' want to tell you this... but maureen's been cheating on you!! with ..." he took a deep breath "alexi... " joanne looked at him, astounded...

kait:
"Maureen is cheating on me?" Roger asked slowly. Mark smacked the back of his head pretty hard. "No you MORON!!! You're not DATING Maureen, Joanne is." "And...?" Roger asked slowly, trying hard to discern Mark's point. "And thus she's cheating on Joanne, not you!" Mark shouted. Roger took a moment to digest this. "Oh. Okay." Joanne, meanwhile, was furious. "I'll get that little Asian harlot if it's the last thing I do!" Mark was going to try and stop her, but frankly, Alexi got on his nerves."
