One Week Of Madness, Brought To You By... (part 4)

[Thursday]: Strawberries, apples, notepaper and origami
I realised I still had about 10 strawberries in a punnet at the bottom of the fridge which were marginally on the squishy side of ripe. The Half-Strawberry side of my nature appears to have won through...

Said strawberry punnet was left on Kieran's doorstep, along with a slip of notepaper that read,

"Please take care of my babies.
Signed
Anonymous."

Soon after returning to my room, there was a knock on the door... I opened and found the punnet, emptied of strawberries, on my doorstep. In place of the strawberries were 3 fruit pastilles, and a note reading,

"Adolescence - a handfull." [sic]


Interesting. We ate the sweets and returned the punnet, with a note reading,

"Adolescence - a mouthful.
__________________________

So underage - and JUICY."

[Second section from the sick mind of Richard, obviously. :P]

Kieran returned the punnet with a single strawberry tucked under a napkin "blanket". The note read,

"It's that time again"

I replaced the strawberry with a button badge I had (To Save Time: Assume I Know Everything) and replied,

"Yes, funny how 1.30pm happens every day, and at the same time, too..."

All went quiet for a while. There was a knock on my door. I opened it to find Kieran wearing that special "I'm on the edge, but I'm being reeeeeally restrained" expression that I think we shall for future reference call the "special Kieran look". I was asked, in a quietly I-could-be-dangerously-hostile-but-I'm-being-reeeeeeeeally-restrained tone,
"Do you have any Pritt Stick?"
I hadn't, and told him as much. The expression and voice were carefully maintained:
"Goodbye."

Later, I found out why: he'd made a top hat and dinner jackets for some of the strawberries, which he returned in the punnet along with a sign saying "House of the Ambiguous Strawberry." However, one of the strawberries was carrying a heart-shaped sign saying "Girls" - what was he trying to imply about me, exactly..? Of course, making such a mockery of the good name of the Strawberry could not be permitted...

Splatters of strawberry juice hit the walls of the punnet. A few juice-stained dinner jackets were littered across the floor, their previous occupiers gone. One final strawberry could be seen protuding from the carved jaws of the monstrous apple, Aph-El-Pti-Ser, the Braeburn of Dhoom, most loyal and devastating minion of the Ubiquitous Strawberry, unleashed on those who would mock the Strawberry... this scene of brutality was deposited on Kieran's doorstep.

There was another knock on my door. Kieran, wearing the special Kieran look, was standing outside. The special dangerously quiet voice had also returned.
"Do you have a knife?"
Under the circumstances, I felt it best to say no... :P

He eventually responded by laying a series of origami shapes, each carefully labelled "shape", on the carpet outside my door.

I left a strawberry wearing a juice-stained strip of tissue (a la head bandaging) along with a speech bubble reading, "The horror... the horror..."

Kieran responded by pushing the tissue strip down slightly and adding a "Burn the bra!" speech bubble.

Unfortunately at that point I had a supervision and had to leave, but on returning found:
"I need to speak to you OR[written in box, with lots of arrows pointing at it] Richard immediately when you get back."
