Turtle: Uhhhhhhh...  Whats a ship show?

Amber: SERIOUSLY???  DID YOU REALLY JUST ASK ME THAT???  HOW ARE YOU EVEN A DRAGON???

*Shadow randomly dives into the river to clean off the mango pulp

Kinkajou: I KNOW WHAT A SHIP SHOW IS!!!  I've ALWAYS wanted one!  Its when some super cool dragons get together to discuss ships between other super cool dragons!  Sometimes the ships are between the shipper dragons which make them super super cool dragons!  And sometimes those super super cool dragons are in more than one ship making them super super super cool dragons and sometimes.........

Kinkajou: super super super super super cool dragons!  So to sum it up, they're really cool!

*Realizes that everyone is staring at her

Kinkajou: Ummm, what were we talking about again?

Winter: I'm going to pretend that never happened and move on

Qibli: I don't think I CAN move on, I think the word "super" is going to be running around in figure 8s in my head forever now *rubs his head

*Shadow starts scratching her claws on the floor

Amber: Huh, I thought Kinkajou explained it pretty well...

Winter: Of course you did...  *eye roll

Amber: WHATS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN???!!!  *Hurt/Shocked/Offended look on her face

*Moon quickly interferes before Amber blows up again

Moon: Nothing, just that you and Kinkajou are both awesome!

*Moon gives Winter a meaningful stare

Moon: RIGHT Winter?

*Winter opens his mouth to say something spiteful

*Qibli interjects 

Qibli: Of course that's what Winter meant!  You guys are the BEST!

Kinkajou: Awwwww, thanks so much guys!  *Kinkajou hugs Moon and Qibli

*Turtle watches this, slightly jealous

Amber: Anyway, a ship show is where some dragons discuss popular ships.  They give their opinions on them and most of the time bring the shipped dragons along for interviews.  And you film the whole thing so others can watch it!

Turtle: And we have to do one of these?

Amber: Yup!

Winter: Do we have a choice?

Amber: Nope!

*Moon shifts on her feet uncomfortably

Moon: Will any of these ships include us?

Amber: Yup!

Qibli: Wait, how would we gather the dragons for the interviews?

*Shadow walks back into the group

Shadow: Amber and I will use our powers for that

Qibli: Wait, how are you talking again?

Kinkajou: Ya, didn't Amber fruit-smash-enchant you to shut up?

*Shadow flicks her tail toward some wobbly letters on the floor that seemed to be written using water

Shadow: I un-enchanted myself

Winter: Don't you want to kill Amber for enchanting you AND smashing fruit on you  *Sniff

Winter: I know I would

Shadow: Believe it or not, this actually happens a lot.  I'm used to it

*Turtle stares at Amber for a few seconds, then turns back to Shadow

Turtle: I believe it

Shadow: So do you get what you need to do for the ship show?

Moon: I think so *Begins counting on her talons 

Moon: Set up a studio with a camera to film the interviews, brainstorm a lot of ships, have you guys teleport the shipped dragons to the studio, interview them on their feelings about the ship, and analyse their feelings and our personal opinions of the ship.

*Moon turns to the JW

Moon: Did I miss anything?

Kinkajou: YES, AND become SuPeR cOoL dRaGoNs!

Moon: *Facetalon

Amber: We'll leave you to brainstorm now!  Good luck!

*Amber runs to the fruit pile and starts whispering to a couple of fruits

Shadow: Remember, the first ship recording is tomorrow, so hurry to set up everything

*Amber comes back with a banana and a pineapple

Amber: Here *Hands Shadow the banana

Shadow: Bye *Smashes banana between talons and disappears

Amber: BYEEEEEEEEE  *Grabs pineapple by the top and smashes it on her head

Amber: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWWYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Amber furiously throws the unmarked pineapple across the room and rubs her head, sheepishly turning back to the amused JW

Amber: I forgot pineapples were hard....  *Wince

Amber: And spiky....

*Qibli trying very hard not to laugh

*Amber finds a safer fruit and squishes it, disappearing

*Everyone except Kinkajou bursts out laughing

Kinkajou: WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING???  That's mean!  

*JW continues to laugh

Kinkajou: Seriously, pineapples can happen to anyone!!
