Travel With Fury Part 5
They actually go somewhere!
Previously: It was big hair day at Dream Dates.
Also previously:
Fury: If I get married, you get married.
Lark: I’m too young and flighty to get married. I’m too busy talking to butterflies and trees and photographs of Greta Garbo to get married.
More like he’s too distracted to get married. Perhaps they should go far, far away so Lark won’t be so distracted. Then he can spend some quality time with Pao and see if that relationship is ever going anywhere.
Of course, there’s a problem with this idea. Problem number one, Pao is never going to accept an invitation from Fury.
Problem number two, look who will accept. You know, much as I would like to blow up my game inviting the Social Bunny on vacation, I think I’ll just have Lark schedule the trip instead.
Traveling tip: Don’t arrive at a hotel without luggage, that looks suspicious. I know, I know, you wear the same clothes every day and don’t need a suitcase. Just fill it up with helium balloons. Think how funny it will be at Customs, before they drag you away and strip search you.
A quick flight on Wonder Woman’s invisible jet and they find themselves in an exotic land surrounded by…uh…familiar faces?
Fury: Why, evil bus driver. I’m glad to see you’re expanding your horizons. Good luck terrorizing people around the world.
Pao: I realize now this was a trick on your part. Lark isn’t really taking his tree on vacation.
Fury is awfully upset. How dare Pao catch on to his clever plan? How dare Pao stand in the way of perfect children being born? And why isn’t there a mirror in front of the hotel? That one confuses Crystalle, as well. How are guests supposed to check their perfect hair before making their perfect entrance?
Lark: I called ahead and made a reservation for two swank bachelors, a postal worker, a Trekker, not a Trekkie - whatever you do don’t make that mistake, she has a lot of wrath and isn’t afraid to use it - and a tiny tree.
Clerk: Just check the box for “I am so crazy” and sign where it states that the hotel is not responsible for your actions.
Lark: Yeah, I know the drill.
