The highly educated scientific brain. He adores all things orange. His brothers jokingly call him "The Professor".
The sports nut. He knows every outcome of every sport ever played in Subeta. He can't get enough lemon.
The clumsy one who can't be trusted around anything fragile. He could eat his way through a vat of limes.
Their names are Zany, Zing and Zest. They've resided together in the heart of Shadowglen ever since the magical accident that left three heads bonded to one body. Much has changed since that bizarre day but one fact has always held true. The Pucker brothers can't agree on anything. Zany will explain with much patience why orange is the superior citrus, throwing in a few scientific terms for added pomp. He's a graduate of Subeta University. He was also the research assistant who was working on a volatile mixture of chemicals when the accident occurred.
Zing is more likely to shove a cold lemonade into your hand and invite you to have a seat on his favorite lemon-yellow chair. He's quite the Subetan Sports expert and will gladly settle on any channel with a game. It was the Centropolis Chelons versus the Darkside Darkonites playing on the little TV in the lab that distracted him when he should have been cleaning. He set the bottle of lemon cleaner on the edge of the table despite repeated warnings about the sensitivity of his older brother's experiment.
Don't be intimidated by Zest's muttered growls or missing eye. The lime-loving ruffie won't allow a guest to leave without a goodie basket stuffed with lime biscotti, key lime pie taffy, and a bag of assorted lime gummies he assembled himself. The youngest Pucker brother meant well when he came to work with the other two to act as a shadow and learn about the working world. Clumsy paws and boiling chemicals do not go well together. A mighty splash and a bright light have forced the brothers to put their heads together in order to solve the inconvenient problem of sharing a body. Literally.
Did I mention that these three don't agree on anything?
Recording of the research notes of the Pucker Brothers.
Zany:
Alright, the time is 14:06 hours, Subeta Standard, month of Morostide. Present are Zany, Zing and Zest Pucker. Today's task: figure out how to undo this mess Zest got us all in.
Zest:
With help from Zing a.k.a. the bone-headed wonder of the world.
Zing:
*muted growl* You're one to talk, butterclaws.
Zany:
Gentlemen, please. Bickering will get us nowhere. Now, this is what we know so far. The chemical composition of the mixture that combines molecules contains...
Zing:
Are you going into another of those two-hour professor-style lectures?
Zest:
He's a show-off. It's what he does.
Zany:
*sigh* I know the two of you barely made it through Subeta High without melting your brains but can you try to focus for just five minutes? I can't very well wander to another room to concentrate.
Zing:
Yeah, way to go Zest. You stuck us with the Professor all day, every day.
There is the sound of a muted scuffle, along with Zany's continual cries that the other two cease their childish behavior at once. A loud splash and a few yelps can be heard in the background.
Zing:
Ew, what the...orange juice? What is this? Zany, when I get my body back, you are SO getting the tigrean tackle!
Zany:
I think the scent is quite fragrant myself. Your preference for lemons is a clear indication that you took too many blows to the head when engaging in your ridiculous sports.
Zing:
Which is the nerd's way of saying he's jealous that I was dancing with Arora while he worked on his science project.
Zest:
You're the perfect gentleman. That's why she snuck out of the dance an hour early.
Zany:
Enough of this childishness, brothers. Now as I was saying, the original chemical composition contained equal parts Subetium, Atebum, and Cellinite. The hydrogen content was minimal and as for the ikumo extract...is that...are you eating in the lab?
Zest:
Iomnaught. *loud chewing sounds*
Zing:
Oh sure, your nasty juice is just fine but none of us can have so much as a lemon bar to nibble.
Zany:
These citrus vials are for the experiment, not for snacking. If we can duplicate the exact conditions that caused our condition, we can find the proper mixture to reverse the reaction. Unfortunately, the cleaner contained trace amounts of orange, lemon and lime juice and Subreze is refusing to divulge the proportions...the spokesfeli I talked to was more concerned with protecting their bottom line than furthering science.
Zing:
Whatever. Can we just do your little science project and be done already? The Sacred Land Sheetas are playing the Omen Island Ontras in ten.
Zany:
We're not leaving this room until I've isolated the root ingredients.
Zest:
Come on Zany. I'm hungry.
Zany:
You should have thought of that before you destroyed my experiment. Now focus, both of you.
Zest:
One little snack. That's all I'm asking. Just a quick nibble of key lime pie and I'll be good to go.
Zing:
You mean lemon meringue.
Zany:
Were I to say yes, the edible of choice would be an orange cream bar, of course.
Zest:
Lime!
Zing:
Lemon!
Zany:
Bah! Orange is the superior choice!
A few angry growls, the crash of furniture and the sudden static of a lost connection are all that remain until a loud click that indicates the tape has reached the end of its reel.
