ALRIGHT. Haha. Ve

ALRIGHT. Haha. Ve
ALRIGHT. Haha. Very funny. VERY FUNNY. Joke's over, okay? Who did it? WHO DID IT?
Whoa, take a chill pill!
How can you tell me to be calm?! WHO DID IT?
How about you explain yourself first? Because I don't think anyone has any idea what you're talking about.
Fine. *deep breath* SO YESTERDAY-
Not starting in all caps would be good.
*glares* So yesterday...that good, Mellie?
Yup! Hey, wait a minute. Isn't that a song? *Googles So Yesterday* Wow, it is! It's by Hilary Duff....oh, I think I know how it goes...If it's over, let it go and come tomorrow it will seem so yesterday, so yesterday. I'm just a bird that's already flown away...
Now who's off topic?
Sorry. Go on!
So yesterday I found a note on top of my gummy bear jar. Taped to the note was a gummy bear. A PINK gummy bear. A pink, Valentine 2014 Limited & Deluxe Edition Pack guumy bear. Don't ask me how I know that, but I make it my business to. Anyway, that type of gummy bear? SUPER RARE.
Rare as Parseltongue. Rare as fire power in the Hephaestus cabin. Rare as bioelectrically manipulation blocking devices on Lunars. Rare as-
Owlgirl, get offa this thread! Mellie and I made it!
Okay okay, sorry, had to seize the opportunity for some fandom references...
*shoves Owlgirl off the thread so that she'll have to wait until after the thread is published to see what the note said*
Where was I? Oh yeah, the rare gummy bear. I was shocked! Those are hard to find and really pricey! I carefully untaped it and put it down. I was pretty happy, and also confused. I mean, who would go through the trouble to buy a super rare gummy bear?
A special someone...
Shut up! I'm not there yet. Then I read the note.
Drumroll please.
It said:
Amazing Grace
How sweet the sound
That saved an AE like me.
I once was lost
But now I'm found
You stole my heart
Yet I feel so free.
-A Special Someone
You can see how it plays off of a popular folk song, trying to stay with the rhyme scheme, which they stayed fairly true to. However, the rhythm is a bit out of sync. Notice how the last line has too many syllables...
This is not poetry interpretation! This is a SERIOUS matter!
Kaykay!
This is either A) a prank because nobody in their right mind would have a crush on me, because I'm against the whole idea of crushes or B) it's not a prank. I'm thinking it's A.
It would be funny if it were all a prank...but I'm thinking B.
*almost barfs* I'm CRAZY AND I'M PROUD OF IT. Nobody crushes on proud crazy people.
Look around you, Grace! Almost all the AEs are crazy! And they're still crushed on!
That's an unsettling point.
*thinks hard* Maybe you actually have TWO admirers.
WHAT?! One is unbelievable enough! But TWO?! Impossible!
You know how on the floor there was a bunch of paper shredded into tiny bits? Maybe that was someone else's note, or maybe two notes, but whoever left the note you found tore them to bits so you wouldn't see them! Either that, or it was a draft. It does seem kind of unlikely that there would be more than one.
*bangs head repeatedly on the table* THIS IS TOO CONFUSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING! Was it a crush? Or a prank? What was the crumpled piece of paper? Is this all some sort of bizarre dream? ARE CHICKENS ALLOWED TO WEARS SOCKS?!
What?
What?
WHAT?!
WHAT?!
What...
WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON?
SOMEONE GIVE ME AN ANSWER! JUST SOMETHING!!!!

PFFT, WHY IS EVERYONE LOOKING AT ME SO ACCUSINGLY? SERIOUSLY, I DIDN'T DO IT. ALTHOUGH WHOEVER DID THAT IS OBVIOUSLY JUST TRYIN TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF INNOCENT GRACE OVER HERE. THERE, THERE.
(slides over large basket of gummy bears, winking aggressively)

Holy flying floating blue insubstantial donkeys! MP!!!!!! Oh my cheeseballs I am so excited may I have your recipe for Brussels-sprout chiffon pie oh no wait that was Dev's recipe I mean your recipe for rosehip-snargleberry-Minecraftian-golden-apple pie with that amazing whipped bantha cream topping oh gosh oh gosh AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH-
Di! I know you're a major Piester fangirl- er, fandragon, but would you please pipe down out there?!
No! You're a sane counterpart! I don't take orders from you!! Fandragony screaming recommencing now: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH-
Please excuse her. I'm going and getting my earplugs.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH-
(July 21, 2016 - 2:38 pm)
Did someone say MINECRAFTIAN-GOLDEN-APPLE-PIE?!
Zeon, it included 2 other ingredients, if you did not tell. And what does that have to do with the love note Grace received?
Nothing, I guess. BUT MINECRAFTIAN PIES RUUULLLEEE.
I suppose. They do taste very sweet, and give you a high regeneration boost due to the enchanted golden apples.
So you LIKE PIES?
*Swallows* Err... Yes. But not as much as I love Tootsie Pops.
What's so great about that?
The perfect combination of the sweet Tootsie Roll candy center with the... the perfect outer shell of the pop... *Starts dazing off*
GET OUT OF THE CANDY DAZE, QUILL! *Slaps Quill*
W-What? What happened?
You were in a candy daze again.
Me? In a candy d-d-daze...? *Goes off in a daze again*
Uhh... Somebody help me here? PLEASE?
(July 21, 2016 - 7:13 pm)
That is B. Love the parody!
(July 20, 2016 - 7:13 am)
So that's not Puck, Ariel, Feather, or Dev...
...and a lot of people think Option B.
Well, then...good for you.
Thats what she says when she doesn't know how to respond to something. This is exciting! A mystery! Any suspicious characters? Owlgirl?
But I said...
Oh, come on, Grace. CBers are very helpful! And they know about mysteries. Always writing Ski Lodges. Besides, Joan has already joined the conversation.
Fine, then. Good for you.
*puts on slightly crumpled Sherlock Holmes hat Grace trashed* *grins, amused by it* Well Ariel was acting funny, but I'm pretty sold on his love for Saphira. He doesn't seem like the prancing type either. MP was acting pretty suspicious...although he is always flirtatious to anyone every chance he gets, so it's annoyingly hard to tell. He's a possibility.
For Option A or B?
Either.
So we're getting somewhere...though nobody has openly confessed yet.
Right.
Wait, what about the crumpled paper? Draft or another lover?
Honestly, no idea de for that yet...
(July 20, 2016 - 9:51 am)
I'm confused. Someone named Grace keeps posting stuff, but they're not my AE Grace. They're a CBer....it's getting confusing, because people the that Grace is my Grace....
Grace is a popular name. You could sign your comments AE Grace.

OOOHHH...
What?
I KNOW WHO DID IT!
You wouldn't have... Unless it was a prank.
Me? No! It was MP. MP MP MP MP!
Masked Piester? What leads you to such a conclusion?
Well, it wasn't Puck, Dev, Ariel, Feather, me, or you. MP has gummy bears IN HIS HAND.
You do prove a very logical point. I will have to say it must have been MP. If not, then nonetheless, it must be B. Or Puck is doing a joke.
(July 20, 2016 - 1:52 pm)
I agree. MP is a prime suspect.
(July 20, 2016 - 5:41 pm)
Maybe it would help if Grace the CBer posted under Grace the CBer. Because Grace is another CBer whose name is Grace, right?
(July 20, 2016 - 4:57 pm)
I believe Grace-the-CBer's-Alias is a CBer whose real name is Grace but that is not their CB name. Perhaps for this thread, centered around Grace-the-AE, it would be advisable to pick another name.
(July 20, 2016 - 10:19 pm)
I think Grace (the A.E.) is the kind of person to write herself a love letter and feign confusion just to cause a scene.
We're feeling very accusatory today, aren't we?
(July 21, 2016 - 6:19 am)
No, I really didn't! If I were to prank myself, I would t do something sappy like love notes! I would do something awesome.
(July 21, 2016 - 9:58 am)
NO!!!!! That's not what I meant! What I meant is that when I'm reading a religon book or something (Don't ask), I keep on seeing my name which is annoying! I have nothing against religon!!!!!!!!
(July 21, 2016 - 10:04 am)
(July 21, 2016 - 7:36 pm)
OK, guys chill out. :) We are all fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did I put enough exclamation points?
Yes.
I wasn't asking YOU, Bolton.
