Tina Belcher's Erotic Friend Fiction Presents: TINA IN SPACE

One day, Tina suddenly awoke on a spaceship. It was a pretty cool spaceship, but she felt confused because her family was nowhere to be seen, and there wasn't a welcome video or something to explain what was going on. And yet, Tina was sure this wasn't a dream and

oh my God I can't keep writing like nothing is happening, is ANYONE reading this?????

Video

[And Tina decided to flip on the video function, as well, after fiddling around with her communicator a bit. However, as soon as she did, her old stage fright managed to take over, and all that came out of her mouth was a prolonged groaning noise.]

Uuuuuhhhhhhh...

Action

[After her broadcast, the first thing Tina did was tear apart the hospitality deck in search of her family. There weren't many places any of them could hide here, it seemed, but she kept looking, trying not to go into full-blown panic mode.]

Mom? Dad? Gene? Louise?! I'd even take Jimmy Jr. or Zeke or Mr. Fischoeder if you're around... but maybe not Jimmy Pesto... [It was a while before she calmed down, realizing that she was alone... for now. So she did the only other thing she could think of to do- went to the cafeteria to eat, try and decide her next move, and wait and see what sort of answers she'd be getting.]

I'm reading it.

[ no hello. no nothing, really, apart from these three words. sansa had been reading the paragraph as it unfolded -- judging rightly that someone had simply been narrating their arrival. but it's certainly been one of the more compelling arrivals she's ever witnessed.

and perhaps (deep down) she misses having new stories to read. ]

WEll that's good because I'd hate to just be writing into the void. or be stuck here by myself forever because that sounds really lonely and I think I'd go crazy eventually

Did you only just arrive? [ ... ] You won't be alone for long.

Just a few minutes ago, which is strange, because last thing I remember we were at my landlord's estate and I was with my family

Such is the nature of these ships.

I'm sorry.

thanks for being honest.

So does that mean my family's still back home? They'll be worried about me...

Unless they've arrived before you, my lady, or with you -- then yes, they are likely still at home.

Yes.

[So helpful, Laura.]

[Well, that's getting her closer to panic mode.]

Then is there a reason I'm here?

Cool.

I think the rest of my story will need a lot of work.

Breaking the fourth wall within the first page? Now that's a bold narrative choice.

You have not lived it yet.

Of course... I'm only 13. And for all I know, the zombie apocalypse could happen tomorrow.

"Bold" is my middle name. Well actually it's Ruth, but maybe I could change it. Tina Bold Belcher.

[Well. That's different. ]

Uh. You okay there? Because you don't sound all that okay.

Probably not. A zombie planet, maybe.

I'm okay! [That's not really convincing. She tries again-] ... sometimes I get stage fright.

A whole planet full of zombies? I could learn to like it, as long as they're the kind that won't eat me before I can appreciate their butts.

[Laura's attempt at a joke had suddenly gotten weird and she had no real idea what to say to that.]

There are zombies that don't eat people?

[What little she had been made to learn about them from movies was failing her.]

Ohhhh.

Well, if it helps, I'm like 90% sure we don't actually have a real audience.

[Sorry, Laura. Tina loves zombies, but only the sexy kind.]

In my fan fiction there are, anyway. Most of the zombies I see in movies are mean, but I like to imagine that there are nice ones, too.

[And there's that uncertain groan again.]

Seriously? Why go through all the trouble, then? At least when my family and I got on Family Fracas we could see the people watching us...

I don't know, I can't figure out what their game is yet. Probably nothing good.

Uh...what's a Family Fracas?

why is it called erotic friend fiction?

[she's asking the important questions]

[That's so not okay, Tina.]

Why?
