It's a vast metropolis with sunny weather all day, everyday. The odd part of the city is that it's deserted, there is only one man with in the city limits. Also, there isn't anyone outside of the city limits but that's beside the point. That man, A height challenged man, is sitting on a 1970's looking couch (It's even covered in plastic to protect from stains) watching TV. The Couch & TV are floating in mid air over an intersection Dollywood & Mine.
The man is wearing a green trench coat with yellow trim, it is way to large for him. The blue bowler, with a red band, on his head is slightly tilted to the left. He has a black t-shirt on & stone washed denim jeans. His shoes are untied & His name is Eddie.
The TV he is watching is a special TV, It can see anything, anywhere, any when. Eddie has spent awhile watching the TV. Flipping the channels like there is no tomorrow. Which there might not be, but that is a different story. Eddie gets out his Inter-Dimensional TV Guide with Mr. Epitome on the cover. He can't find anything good to watch on TV. "Come on, Come one, Come on. Where is the good stuff ? I didn't to have cable installed on this to have nothing to watch."
Eddie finally turns of the TV. His minds starts to wonder & people start to appear on the street below. Britney Spears is riding a giant Cow. Then, she & the cow turn into Ashton Kutcher & Demi Moore dancing but they have each others heads on their bodies. Then, they disappear. Eddie's mind wonders on to something else.
---------------------
Some time later...
"Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored." Thought Eddie. he was now flipped upside down, still sitting on the couch & stairing at the TV. He was watching some show about the Matting Rituals of Comic Book Characters, a frequent topic of CSFB!'s cable access show.
A calendar appears besides Eddie & he see that his 90 days are almost up. That means He almost could go to the Parodyverse & have some fun. Eddie gets happy.
----------------
SPECIAL WRITER NOTE: Eddie lives in the *th Dimension, a dimension that is inhabited by himself. he gets lonely so he travels to other dimensions. His & other dimensions are come into contact with each other every few months. Crossing into a close dimension is just simply having the means to jump dimensions, which Eddie does. Eddie knows that about every 90 days, the Parodyverse comes close to his & he can go see his favorite hero, Amazing Guy (much to the dismay of Amazing Guy).
----------------
Last time he went to the PV, Eddie didn't really prepare for what to do there. But, this time he was going to have a plan. So, he tuned his flips to the channel that broadcasts what was happening the Parodyverse. At that moment, it just happen to be showing an E-mail conversation between Visionary & Dancer. In one of the E-Mails, Dancer typed:
"Anyway, I wish I *was* sixteen again, along with you and all the LL types, so you could see how responsibly I did behave back then compared to Kerry and all the others. I do!"
Eddie grins, He thinks that he thinks thats cool & says "Granted!" Eddie laughed as his magics do the rest, unknown to him.
-----------------
The next morning,
Eddie was watching the Parodyverse, yet again. He then saw that the Lair Legion had de-aged.
"Oh, Crap!" He said. Then, it started to rain "O" shaped poop. Eddie then pulls a umbrella from under one of the couch cushions & opens it to protect himself from the falling poo.
----------------
SPECIAL WRITER NOTE: The *th Dimension is a magical place & is at the whims of Eddie. But, sometimes Eddie doesn't really have control of it. He has it mostly at his control but every so offen, it goes off & does what it wants.
----------------
Eddie sits on his couch & watches intently as he sees the saga unfold. He notices that much of the magic worked in the same way but then Magic is random so some LLer's were changed in different ways.
"This is so Cool! It's way better then the O.C.!"
A bowl of chips appear out of nowhere, Eddie starts to get. A can of pop appears & Eddie opens it. He takes a drink & places into on a now floating coffee table.
---------------
Later...
Eddie hasn't moved much from his couch. He's still watching The Lair legion as Teens.
Then, he hears someone or something say "Ahem."
Eddie looks around to see who it was. Then, he sees a pile of goo.
"I would like to discuss my High Priestess with you."
Eddie's stone-washed denim jeans are still stone washed, but are no longer blue.
"Uh, Hi" Eddie says & waves nervously down to The Elder Being.
--------------
The End for now!

FOOTNOTES AS QUESTIONS:
The *th Dimension looks different then in other stories?: That's because they are showing one view of the *th Dimension (A white nothingness with a small chuck of land for Eddie live on). The view showed here is Eddie's Parrot-E-Verse view. In his late story, Eddie created an almost prefect copy of the Parodyverse for Amazing Guy to live in, he called it the Parrot-E-Verse. Well, AG didn't want to live there, so Eddie sent him home.
Lost Angles, Where's that?: Lost Angles is city Eddie created for no other reason but to have a city. it first appeared in his lat Story appearance, Parody of Parody. It is sort of based off on one certain Southern Californian City, can you guess which one?
Why does this Story seem sort of disjointed?: Well, I wanted to get at least something Eddie related on the message board while the series was going on & I don't really have all that much time to write. So, I (sort of) of took a half finished Eddie story & deleted some of it, because it didn't fit. Then, wrote some stuff that I hope works. I do have some other Eddie stuff that I want to write that is sort of connected to "Follies of Youth", but that will wait to Part 2.
Haven't I seen some of that text before?: Yes, I used some of Dancer's & Manga Shoggoth's text from their parts of the "Follies of Youth" series. I hope they don't mind.
What's the O.C.?: The O.C. is a Fox Tv show with alot of angest & hormone filled teenagers.
