The transport pod
Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
The transport pod
The transport pod orbited around Earth, beaming Capsules down to the houses of CBers. Despite the suspicious appearance of the large silver Capsules popping into exsistence right in front of the CBers, Galaxy knew that they would still flock to MilkyWay Station. Flock there to die. Galaxy grinned. And slapped her hand down on the huge red button.
It did nothing.
She just enjoyed pressing it.
~~~~~~~
You plop down on the couch with a large bar of chocolate and begin snacking on it. Ow, Something's poking you in the back! You reach behind the couch cushion and pull out the TV remote. "Aha! That's where it was!" you say, and reward yourself on your obviously superior finding abilities with a large bite of chocolate. You turn on the TV to your favorite station. But... It's just static! "What? Nooooo!!!" you cry in anguish and flip through the rest of the channels. They're all static. Despondently, you allow yourself to collapse dramatically across the couch and snag a bite of chocolate. Unfortunately, your acting genius is inturrupted by a large, very hard object. Conveniently placed where your head lands. You sit up indignantly and rub your head. As you turn to see the offending object that put an abrupt ending to your acting career in dramatic fainting, the chocolate falls out of your mouth as you gape in astonishment. Sitting innocently on the couch is a sleek metal tube that tapers to a point at each end. As you watch, a slot opens up in the seemingly seamless silver steel (ahaha alliteration!) and a voice as sleek as the Capsule it issues from filters out.

Galaxy loved pressing buttons. She tried to do it as much as possible. Presently, she reached up to the ceiling of the transport pod and pressed a small yellow button. Her voice boomed out from the speakers of 14 well-placed Capsules: "Greetings and salutations lucky CBers!" There was an almost undetectable hint of sarcasm on the word 'lucky', but it was so slight that only a very experienced sarcasmist would notice. Galaxy continued with her speech: "You have been chosen for a very exclusive vacation. So exclusive, in fact, that you are the only ones besides myself and our various staff members who will ever experience it! This vacation (insert dramatic pause) is in (insert long dramatic pause) SPACE!" Galaxy imagined the screeches of excitement coming from the CBers. Screeching was a very humanlike trait, and Galaxy did not enjoy it. She rolled her eyes and then continued on: "You have 7 minutes to pack and round up your companion, then return to the Capsule and insert a chocolate bar in the slot. You will be transported to the MilkyWay Space Station where I will meet you. Don't be late. I will be timing you. Now GO!" Galaxy pressed an hourglass shaped purple button, which started the seven minute timer. Then she slammed down hard on the ignition button and the transport pod rocketed out into deep space.

The MillyWay Space Station boasts many space luxuries including the AntiGravity Hall, the Luxury Space Pool, the Theater with a different sci-fi movie everyday, Lyft-Off Planet Transport, The Chocolate Bar, and much, much more.

O.O Poor Leafpool...
And hey, I know a trick that the Admins showed me about how to not have that weird formatting when copy-pasting things from the CB. XD I had the same exact problem with my Ski Lodge. If you're on a Mac, copy-paste whatever it is you want to paste onto the CB onto the TextEdit application. When in TextEdit, at the very top, there's a tab marked "format". Click on that, then click on "Make Plain Text", which will convert the writing on TextEdit to the same formatting thing. Then copy-paste the writing from TextEdit onto the CB, and you're good to go!
Thanks for passing along the great advice, Vyolette!

No... Not Leafpool...
*I'm surprised I haven't died yet.*
Brynn, are you looking FORWARD to DYING???
*It's what I'm here for, isn't it?*
Uh... Your logic is impaired but somehow makes sense... You're demented, Brynn.
*Good. I never thought 'normal people' were mentally sound in the first place. It's good to know that insane people say I'm insane (it implies that I, myself, am sane).*
BRYNN STOP IT BEFORE YOU HURT YOURSELF!! Ugh. If I resurrect you, I am tweaking your logical cunningness... Thing. It's weird. I'm pretty sure you've successfully unsettled me. Congradulations, you have moved one of the most unmovable people in the universe.
*You do realize that you have unsettled yourself because I am a fictional character. My origin is your brain.*
Oh for the love of all things fact-oriented WILL YOU STOP. LOGICING!!!
*Snickers* *Nope!*
Remind me again why I created you the way I did?

Thank you for topping. Never fear I have not forgotten this I am currently just annoyingly busy.

Hello everyone I'm putting the Ski lodge on hold for a while. I haven't spoken to Blacky in a few days and both Jupiter and I are busy. I am VERY busy >:| I will continue this ski lodge when my busyness ends. I doubt anyone's reading this anyway. :(
CAPTCHA says "pxir". Pixar? Are you an actor now?
