WHISKEY CHUCKLES: You're back.
TOM: Of course I'm back. You're my blog. I'd never leave you.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: That's... that's a little weird. We've only been going for a few days and-
TOM: What? You want more space?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: A little and maybe we can slow down a bit.
TOM: But I've only posted once before now!
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: I know, I know I'm just tired.
TOM: You can't be tired! You don't do anything.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: I do, do things!
IRONING BOARD: Hehehe do-do.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Shut up Ironing Board!
TOM: Hey you don't get to talk to him like that! Now you look me in the eye and you tell me what your problem is Chuckles.
Pause
TOM: Well?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: I'm scared!
Pause
TOM: What are you scared of?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: I'm scared of the internet. I'm scared of trolls and firsts and likes and pokes and nyan ninja keyboard LOL cats. I'm just a page of text with some bright colours in the background.
TOM: Look it's going to be ok. And besides, you're not just a page of text. You're a page of dialogue!
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: With tropes?
TOM: (scans the post) Sure, with tropes. How about I make you a picture?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Like a logo?!
TOM: Yeah, how about that?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: That sounds good. Can I have a theme tune that plays when someone visits the page?
TOM: Don't push it.

The First Mirth
TOM: Err hi.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Hey
TOM: So you're my blog?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: That's me. Look are all of your posts going to be like this?
TOM: Yeah, I think. It's sort of a thing I like to do. A signature style. Like you know certain killers have an M.O.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Wait, you're a killer?!
TOM: No, no, no I mean like a trope or a method.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: A trope? What the hell's a trope? Do you kill people with your trope?
TOM: NO! I don't kill people, with or without tropes! Oh come on you're meant to be MY blog and you don't even know what a trope is? Never mind, I feel like we should maybe get to know each other a little bit.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Ok, well I'm Whiskey Chuckles, which you know because you just named me. Dumbass.
TOM: Hey, woah! Why with the attitude?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Why with the attitude? You've made me sound like a freakin' hobo-clown hybrid!
TOM: Look I like whiskey and it sounds like I have taste, and I also like comedy so...
TOM stares at the screen, at the blog's name.
Long pause
TOM: Damn it, it does sound like a hobo-clown!
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Thank you! Look just let's run with it, maybe it'll catch on.
TOM: Ok, ok so you're my new blog which every now and again I will post on in the form of conversations between myself and something of interest.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: So you're going to talk to inanimate objects?
Tom: Yes. No! Well... yes I am. Why do I get the feeling you're squinting at me in a sceptical fashion?
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: I'm totally squinting at you in a sceptical fashion.
Pause
TOM: I'm not sure I like you.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Yeah well get used to it. So who are you? All I know is that you're a killer who drinks whiskey and stabs or burns people with tropes.
TOM: Oh for crying out loud! I'm not a killer; yes I drink whiskey once in a while and a trope is a... it's a literary thing.
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: A literary thing?
Tom: Wait, I need to Wikipedia it...
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: You've got to be kidding.
Tom returns after a brief search.
TOM: Yeah it's a literary thing.
Whiskey Chuckles: Great work detective. So just for any potential readers out there, how about we sum this misguided conversation up?
TOM: Good idea. Ok so as a writer-
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: You're a writer now?!
TOM: Shut up! As a writer I like to make characters and in the past I've had some fairly bizarre but amusing mock-conversations with characters I've imagined in the past. So in an attempt to do something creative with this nonsensical ability I've decided to create a blog where you'll find comedic discussions between me and perhaps an ironing board-
IRONING BOARD: Ooooo, am I on the internet now?
TOM: And many other things including books, films, games, foods, television and maybe even random objects that people wish to have interviewed. So please give it a read as I'm totally new to blogging but would like to really give it a go. Cheers.
Pause
WHISKEY CHUCKLES: Has anyone checked this guy's history?
