School Assembly, Friday afternoon, The Auditorium

[fh_extras]

For today's assembly, there were eleven chairs set up on one half of the stage, a microphone at center stage and a table with several books piled on it one the other half of the stage. When everyone in the audience was seated, a small, blue figure strode onto the stage. "Hello der," it said. "Me Cookie Monster. De following people please to come up on stage and be in spelling bee. Is impromptu."

He cleared his throat and pronounced the names carefully. "JC Broots, Dick Casablancas, Demyx, Zero Hopeless-Savage, Pippi Longstocking, Ami Mizuno, Stealtrike, Tannim, Valentine, Naomi Wildman, and Matilda Wormwood."

Once they were all up on stage, he went to sit behind the table and gave them their instructions. "Me say word, you say word, you spell word, you say word again. If you right, you get cookie and go to next round."

This was getting downright bizarre. Still, the blue thing had said he didn't know how to pronounce it, which probably meant it was pronouncing the word phonetically. There shouldn't be any hidden or silent letters, so Steerpike merely had to, well, sound it out.

Right then.

"Triantiwontigongolope?" He shot the blue thing a glance to ensure he'd gotten the word right, then gave it a shot. "T-R-I . . . A-N-T-I . . . W . . . O-N-T-I . . . G-O-N-G-O-L-O-P." Wait, no. "E. Triantiwontigongolope."

Cookie Monster was very carefully following along as Steerpike spelled the word. "Dat right!" he said. "Come get cookie. Next round start soon."

Having observed the blue thing's reaction to Dick quickly eating his cookie the last round, Steerpike decided that it might be good to get on the blue thing's good side and quickly crammed the entirety of both cookies into his mouth.

"Dat good idea," Cookie Monster said and gobbled down a couple cookies himself.
