‼️MR. (ANT) TENNA 📺

NOTHING! BETTER THAN EVER, even!!

[His screen is very statiky.]

[<- Meanwhile having an internal crisis again.]

[Tenna's screen is going CRAZY.
So many glitches. He might be close to crashing out.]

[This tv already looks like he's going to fall asleep soon and he's only been on the bed for a few seconds. Now he can't deny it.]

Oh- oh MY. The mere comfort is astounding...

Well, what do you think of THAT, folks?!

TWO — count 'em — TWO, TRANSGENDER TENNAS!!!

HAHA! Welcome to the club, buddy! I'm a TRANSGENDER WOMAN!!!

[ Imagine that last part is in big glittery trans flag colored text ]

Nonsense! The show must go onn..!!

[He hadn't pressed his power button in a while and it's starting to affect him...]

[<- Looks absolutely exhausted somebody get him to power off.]

[Ever seen a tv screen face flush?]

OhhH-

[Now he's being less stubborn. Eepy tv man.]

Who will do the reruns-!

But Mr. Tenna must do his groove..!!

[He wants to lay down but won't verbally admit it.]

Never glooby-! Never!

[Poor thing hasn't been turned off in forever.]

[Overworked tv!!
He doesn't even have enough energy to act much like a host!]

Good morning, folks..! Groovy? Never glooby!

[The tv is standing but eepy!! Just enough to not have his silly host gimmick. Blushing.

...He so does look at him.]

[CONFETTI]

If there is one thing you folks must know about me, it is that I discovered something about me long ago!

I am *TRANSMASCULINE*!! THAT'S RIGHT! COMING RIGHT FROM *YOUR* HOUSE IS A WALKING PRIDE SPECIAL!

Ever since you saw me, I've repurposed myself to fit this need!

Sorry for such lessened activity, folks! I was definitely NOT feeling glooby!!! Or having a crisis! Nothing like that! No! Why would I ever do that?

[Tenna mutually holds the hand, feeling things he previously thought he never could.]

Alrighty, then, star! To which will we go?

Park, you say? A little adventure..?

I suppose since I can finally have outings, it wouldn't hurt!

Hmm. Not in particular!! Apologies if that's a deal breaker for the star you are..

[Nervous.
It's his first time doing this.]

I'm not too sure. My reruns never really include romance shows....

[Aww, awkward tv. He only knows what he's shown.]

Ah--

[Actually calming down a bit now, but blush still dusts along his screen.]

It's just force of habit, is all!

[Dramatic introduction in 3.. 2...]

MR. (ANT) TENNA! GROOVY, never glooby!! Reruns that.. um.. EVERYBODY still watches...

[Oh, touchy spot.]

..and the ULTIMATE LOVER OF TV!

[The tv is already warming up-!]

Ah- precisely!
A good host is a dapper one!

As ready as ever!!

[He's so enthusiastic about this.

Also, he's got this now.]

[Oh!]

Well, let's see--

[His little antennas make some noises. Checking his own rerun schedule.]

[A quiz screen comes up without any prior indication.]

'IS TENNA GAY?'

1. YES
2. YES
3. YES
4. YES

HUH? MIKEEEE!? WE AREN'T EVEN ROLLING RIGHT NOW!!

I mean- haha- I certainly wouldn't be against that...

[Goofy smile.]

Ah- little ol' meee?? Are you sure...?

[Got so flabbergasted his gameshow host gimmick went away.]

Oh, FOLKS! My socks are getting knocked off!!

[Who is "folks"? He doesn't know. Force of habit.]
