Stuart's Dream

Stu Two

Wooooowwwwww!!! I'm having, like, the most amaaaazzzzzing dream, it's so cooool! It starts in the Big Brother house, and I'm just, like, chillin', and Dan comes over to me in his dressing gown - but then he takes down the hood, and it's not Dan! It's the main man, the Death Dude, the Grim Reaper! He says "Stuart, you must come with me" and I'm like, "Woooaaahhh", and I'm trying to get away from him, and I get up on the beds and start jumping up and down, and, like, wherever I go, he watches me, and I'm, like, 'this feels familiar' but I can't think why.....

Suddenly, we're in the middle of a desert, just me and the Death Dude, and he's holding this big metal thing (I don't know what it is, it wasn't in my exams). And he says "Stuart, your time has come, the big brother house burnt down while you were sleeping, and all the housemates are dead". I'm, like, mega shocked, and I say "Noooooo!! jeepers creepers!!". "Yes, Stuart, you are dead. That's why I am here", he says, and I just stare at him with a vacant look on my face. He doesn't seem to notice this though, and carries on as normal.

We walk through the desert for, like, thirty minutes, and then I say to him "So...am I dead then? I don't really understand...". He turns to me with, like, a funny look on his face and says "Yes Stuart, why else would I be here? It's not like I've travelled from a future where people live by your mantra of 'be, like, mega excellent to each other', bringing an end to war and putting me out of business, is it?" He grabs my hand and pulls me along after him (that seems familiar too, I wish I could think why?)

I'm, like, following Death Dude, and I'm kinda thinking about how sad it is that the housemates are dead, and trying to remember their names, and all of a sudden, we're not in the desert any more, we're on a boat in the middle of the sea, with sharks circling it! Cool! We sail off, and I'm, like, thinking about how I could end world hunger, by, like, draining the sea (I'm really clever - I don't know if I've told you, but I've got 4 A Levels, I'm probably the most intelligent person you'll ever meet). After about an hour, I suddenly remember what The Dude of Death (cool name!) said earlier, and I realise that he's lying!

"Hey, Dude! I'm not really dead am I? You're, like, a future Death, and you're trying to fool me, aren't you?" He looks really shocked, like he didn't think I'd figure it out or something. I remember my Team Handsome ring, and I raise my hand in the air, holding my ring to the sun. "By the power of Team Handsome, I will destroy you, Dude of Death!", I shout. He starts to shrink, getting smaller and smaller, till my little cowboy hat would fit him. And then, quick as anything, I'm back in the house again! It's not burnt down! And my hat is back, aaaawwesoooome! This is the best dream ever - I think I'll put on the hat and play with the hoses for a while, then I might check if the other dudes are okay.

Tiagra, King of the Jungle

We begin with a scene which looks remarkably like the studio set of an old jungle movie - tall fake trees are interspersed with plastic foliage, and vine ropes swing from on high. Piped sounds of bird song, monkey cries and a generic rustling noise permeate the air. From stage left, a peculiar creature emerges; the figure appears to be human, but walks hunched over, emitting growling noises, and wears some fake animal fabric sarong style. Could this be the mythical Tiagra?
The creature leaps towards us, stands posing hands on hips and begins to speak.
"Ggggrrrrrroooowwww! I am the mighty Tiagra, king of the jungle, before me all the other jungle cats bow, gggrrrooooowwwwww!"
He performs a peculiar dance, spinning in a circle while waving his arms around.
"My stunning good looks and superior intellect set me apart from the other animals, I've got four jungle A Levels, you know. All I need now is to find a mate worthy of me and a shall rule over all, gggrrrrooooowwww!"
With that he jumps onto a nearby rock, and pulls himself up into the branches of a tree.
After a few seconds, a girl with scraped-back dark hair totters in from the right, her wedge heels unsuitable for the fake jungle terrain. She looks around, taking in her surroundings, and notices Tiagra in the tree. She looks slightly confused. Tiagra has been watching her, and now jumps down in front of her.
"Ggggrrrrooooowwwww! I am Tiagra, king of the jungle, and I claim you as my mate! You will live with me and have Tiagra's kittens. I am in charge, and you will come with me now!"
Michelle (for it is she) looks him over and seems impressed with what she sees.
Michelle - "You look just like my chicken Stu, knowarramean? I can't believe it, its amazing!"
Tiagra - "Forget this Stu, he is not man enough for you, come with Tiagra, and make some new outfits for him"
Michelle - "Are you sure you're not just Stu dressed up in another daft costume?"
Tiagra - "Of course not, I'm real. This Stu you talk of is just a character, Tiagra is the real thing!"
Michelle - "But people don't go around wearing stupid clothes like that in real life, I don't think I believe you..."
Tiagra - "I will convince you: this Stu you talk of claims to belong to Team Handsome - what real 20 year old would do a stupid thing like that?"
Michelle - "Ha, you're right, I forgot about that! Oh Tiagra, I think you're great - you look like Stu, but you can finish a sentence and act all masterful like. Forget my chicken, you're the man for me!"
Tiagra scoops her up in his arms and leaps through trees, carrying her to his home.
Tiagra - "Let me show you your new home, and you can suck in the experience of it! Ggggrrrrrooooowwwwww!"
They disappear from view.
