The Big Bang & Beyond

The Fuzzy Boots Corollary

Savannah's POV:

The boys are gathered in the living room on their laptops, playing a video game while I watch from the kitchen.

Howard: "Alright, just a few more feet. And here we are, gentleman, the Gates of Elzebub."

Sheldon: "Good lord."

Raj: "Oh."

Leonard: "Don't panic. This is what the last 97 hours have been about."

Howard: "Stay frosty. There's a horde of armed goblins on the other side of that gate guarding the Sword of Azeroth."

Leonard: "Warriors, unsheathe your weapons. Magic wielders, raise your wands."

Sheldon: "Lock and load."

Howard: "Raj, blow the gates."

Raj: "Blowing the gates. Control, shift, B! Oh, my God! So many goblins!"

Howard: "Don't just stand there! Slash and move, slash and move!"

Leonard: "Stay in formation!"

Howard: "Leonard, you got one on your tail."

Leonard: "That's alright. My tail's prehensile. I'll swat him off."

Raj: "I got him, Leonard. Tonight, I spice my mead with goblin blood!"

Leonard: "Raj, no, it's a trap! They're flanking us!"

Raj: "Oh, he's got me!"

Howard: "Sheldon, he's got Raj. Use your sleep spell! Sheldon? Sheldon?"

Sheldon: *stands* "I've got the Sword of Azeroth!"

Leonard: "Forget the sword, Sheldon, help Raj!"

Sheldon: "There is no more Sheldon. I am the sword master!"

Howard: "Leonard, look out!"

Leonard: "Damn it, man, we're dying here!"

Sheldon: *sits back down* "Goodbye, peasants!"

Leonard: "The bastard teleported!"

Raj: "He's selling the Sword of Azeroth on eBay."

Leonard: "You betrayed us for money? Who are you?"

Sheldon: "I'm a rogue night elf. Don't you people read character descriptions? Wait, wait, wait. Somebody just clicked 'Buy it now'."

Howard: *stands* "I am the sword master!"

I love my life.

{Time skip}

After the game is over, everyone removes and puts away their headsets.

Sheldon: "Ooh! I'm all sweaty. Anybody wanna long on to Second Life and go swimming? I just built a virtual pool."

Leonard: "No. I can't look at you or your avatar right now."

Then, we hear Penny laughing from the other side of the door.

Howard: "Sounds like your neighbor's home."

Leonard: "Excuse me."

I call out to Leonard on his way out.
