Google, Bing, and Iplier were in the living room close to killing Wilford, who had been talking their heads off for the past few hours after Dark left.
"And we couldn't sleep for hours!" Wilford laughed, wiping a tear away. "Oh, that reminds me of that one-time when-."
"Wil!" Google snapped, watching as the pink ego stopped talking, staring at him. "Why don't you tell that story to your kids! Hmm?!"
"Oh... good idea. I'll talk to you guys later." Wilford grinned as he walked out of the room humming.
Bing planted his face in the table, groaning. "I can't take much more of this."
"He's been talking for so god damn long!" Dr. Iplier whispered. "Do you think he'll ever run out of anything to talk about?"
"No he's been alive longer than any of us if he runs out of stuff that happened in our time, he's bound to talk about the past," Google whispered.
There was a knock on the wall, causing everyone to turn to the doorway seeing Jamie smiling, holding a tray of mugs. He sat them down in front of them. "I made you all coffee." He signed with a smile. "You all seem drained."
"Oh thank you, Jamie, that was nice of you." Dr. Iplier said as he took a mug.
"No problem. I'm gonna go find Wilford, I'll see you guys." He then left the room.
"Why can't Wilford be more like Jamie," Google whispered as he rubbed his head.
"I don't know but his talking is gonna drive me-." Dr. Iplier froze, seeing a box sitting on the table in front of him. "What is that?"
Both the egos looked down at the box, looking out each other before both shrugged.
"Only one way to find out," Bing said as he flipped the lock and slowly opened it.
Once they opened the box, they found a bunch of colorful liquid and powder staring back at them. They stared at it for the longest time before Bing gasped. "It's Marvin's potion box."
"He must have forgotten it when he left here." Dr. Iplier concluded as he taking out some of the potions, reading them. "This one says elephant call."
"I guess it... makes you sound like an elephant?" Bing questioned.
"That magician is a weird one," Google whispered as he shook his head looking at the potions.
"Oh look this one's an owl call." Bing grinned, holding a brown one, but his eyes landed on a pink powder, causing him to hold it. "And this is." Bing's smile wavered upon reading the label.
Google and Iplier looked at each other before back at Bing. "What's it say?"
"It says... mute powder," Bing explained reading instructions. "It says to sprinkle it in your food and you'll lose your voice upon consuming it." He whispered before looking back at the box, finding a purple powder, reading it out loud. "And this is the antidote."
They were all quiet for a moment before big smiles formed on their faces, Google is the first to speak. "You thinking what I'm thinking?" He whispered watching as they gave him a nod.
...
A few hours later, the three egos were in the kitchen, holding a fresh batch of cotton candy. They were all looking around, making sure the coast was clear.
"Okay just sprinkle it on it," Bing whispered, watching as Dr. Iplier opened the pouch. They planned to give the cotton candy to Wilford so that they could finally get some peace and quiet.
