RR-012: Of Hot Potatoes and Doomed Capers - Part II

He roamed through the ground floor of the boys hostel but it was devoid of the fairer sex. He then climbed up to the first floor and voila...........struck gold!!!
There were two damsels there, waiting in the corridor as if God had sent them there to be invited to go clubbing with Shivaji.He approached them with a nonchalent swagger and asked if they would be interested in going out clubbing and they ofcourse said.............. yes!!!

So down the stairs ran Shivaji in double quick time to inform his companions of their upturn in fortunes. However, by then two things had happened. Aurangzeb, not seeing much scope for conquering conquered territories had retired for the night. And The Buffer had managed to invite Mel B along on the insistence of Gengis Khan. For those not in the know Gengis and Mel were dating at that point of time.

Now Mel was quite a fun girl to be with. She was always ready to go out and have a good time and clubbing ofcourse was second nature to her. However, she tended to be a little aggressive and dominating at times but that probably was needed to keep Gengis's roving eye in check. But this is where the Buffer showed his forward thinking and shrewed brain. He had not called Mel only because of her pleasing personality and fun loving nature. Her ownership of an automobile had been a deciding factor.

So after a lengthy interval in which the damsels were getting ready, Sambaji finally spotted Dumb Blonde 1, Dumb Blonde 2 (hereafter referred to as DB1 and DB 2) and surprisingly Masakali making their way towards them. Mel had already joined them a few moments ago and the party was now ready to rock (a few nice ones on the rocks while waiting for the better half tend to make the atmosphere all merry and cheery).

Gengis surprisingly was nowhere to be seen. Assuming he had tired of the whole scenario, the group moved towards transportation. The Buffer of course joined the ladies in the car, whereas Shivaji and Sambaji followed them on their two wheeler. The Buffer started making introductions in the car.(you wouldnt expect the Mel's, DB's and Masakali's of the world to hang out together now would you?)

And just as he finished the introductions Masakali had a FITM (foot in the mouth) moment " First they had called Hot Potato and myself to party, but since she left after a fight, you are now the able replacements". The DB's gave big smiles, probably taking this as a big compliment. However, Mel gave a dirty look to The Buffer who now wished he had joined Shivaji and Sambaji on the bike.

They soon reached the disk and Mel hit the dance floor with The Buffer and Sambaji and left Shivaji trying to think of some smart one liners to get the remaining three on the dance floor. But he was in for a rude surprise. When he invited them to the dance floor, all three said in unison "We dont dance". When he asked them bout their choice of drink, all three again said in unison "We dont drink". To cut a long story short, they spent the entire evening, standing with folded arms and quite ruined Shivaji's evening. The Buffer, quite forgetting his duties boogie woogied in his own patented style whereas Sambaji rocked the dance floor as always.

It was early morning by the time the group returned back to campus (both the dancing and non dancing members) This was when all hell broke loose when Mel found Gengis with Femme Fatale. His unexplained absence earlier in the evening was thus discovered.

This was when seeing an opportune moment, Shivaji, Sambaji and The Buffer made themselves scarce not wanting to get into domestic disputes. And keeping in mind the adage "Form is temporary, Class is permanent." they started planning on Buffering their next target..................Femme Fatale.

RR-011: Of Hot Potatoes and Doomed Capers !!!

After "Mission B" the conquerors had been on the lookout for similar opportunities to test and succesfully execute their "Buffering Theory".An opportunity presented itself one fine Saturday Night.

There was a roadside pub just by the river which was a very popular watering hole for all and sundry. This particular Saturday Night Shivaji, Sambaji, Aurangzeb and The Buffer were all gathered there. Shivaji was sharing the exhilarating news of new lands being sighted. He wasnt very far from impersonating the weary Sailor who after being away at sea for long months, excitedly shouts "Land Ahoy" on spotting friendly shores.

So Shivaji started sharing(and everybody was all ears) on how he had made plans to go clubbing with two Gals later in the night. There were mixed reactions from the audience on knowing the identities of the company they were going to be in which can probably be guessed from the descriptions below:

The Initial Company:

1. Hot Potato: When a Hot Potato falls into the hands of A, he flips it into the air to prevent it from burning his palms, at which point of time it is caught by B who in turn has to do the same thing all over again.

2. Masakali: Accented english was her claim to fame and her gait would have put Gisele Bundchen to shame.

3. Gengis Khan: He was similar in zest if not deed to the legendary Mongolian Warrior.

And just as Shivaji finished narrating the plan they could watch Gengis and the damsels approaching them from different directions. So they said "cheers" to one another and emptied their respective glasses.

Introductions were made and refills ordered all around. But before the party mood could be built up, a sudden friction cropped up with Hot Potato and Masakali on the one side and Shivaji, Sambaji and Gengis on the other. It originated from Hot Potato's roots (no pun intended) and quickly escalated into a slanging match resulting in the two damsels upping and leaving.

This was a most unfortunate and unexpected twist in the evening's proceedings. Now what were the conquerors to do? Shivaji was determined to go clubbing no matter what the cost. If the Hot Potatoe's and Masakali's of the world thought they could prevent him from executing Buffering Theories, they were highly mistaken.

So off he went around the campus in search of new dancing partners.
