Story: My Little Enterprise: Of First Contacts and Little Blue Boxes

Story: The Coltbert Report / Minty Fresh

Two short stories this time around!  Parodies and Shipping abound! 

[Crossover]

Author: Narwhals' Bend

Description: A parody of The Colbert Report. This has probably been done twenty times before but I’m doing it anyway! You might not understand it if you’ve never seen the show. It’s written the way it is to try to duplicate the arrogant manner in which the show is presented. That’s why I describe him as handsome so much and why the audience cheers so much. Anyway it’s terrible, so no more crossovers for me! Oh, and it has a surprise ending!
