Description
“There was this woman, and she was the most beautiful young thing, with jade eyes and honey blonde hair. So she has like this really bad breakup with her boyfriend, who’s like a totally jerk, and she’s like walking home, crying, and then suddenly, she hears an engine. She looks up and there’s this white van, this man with a chainsaw steps out….” Jojo trailed off as she noticed that no one was listening anymore. “Hey, guys!”Az held a finger over her lips, gesturing for Jojo to stay quiet.
“What is is?”
“Um…that chainsaw monster in your emo story…I think he’s right over there. And that girl…um…you might not want to look…” Fitz frowned slightly.
Unfortunately, Jojo did not hear Fitz over the loud chainsaw buzzing and frantic screaming. “Shouldn’t we do something?”
The others would’ve agreed, but of course, they also could not hear Jojo over the din. Well, except Adri, but she was away as always, and too far down the street to be of any help anyways. Even Raiz with his madness and robot could only watch, although unlike the abject horror of everyone else, he merely grinned.
Finished with his daily slaughter, Jojo’s original character threw her other OC into the back of the van and drove away.
“That certainly was odd,” Alfred commented.
“Wouldn’t it be cool if it suddenly started raining machine guns and killer whales?” The Found Foe added rather randomly.
And, much to everyone’s surprise, the weapons and mammals did indeed behind falling from the sky. Sadly, it was less cool and more dangerous than expected, as the poor grandmother now sitting in the street beneath a massive hunk of black and white blubber could attest. Luckily, Laura pulled out her pen and drew a massive shield, protecting the superheroes.
After the raining stopped, they all glomped Laura to show their appreciation, even Raiz, although he allowed the bot to abstain from the show of human emotion.
“Maybe, there’s an interdimensional portal on the moon that’s causing our imaginations to pull objects from their reality into the real reality!” Jojo suggested.
“You may be on to something,” Fitz agreed, rubbing her chin and hands together as she plotted.
“To the moon!” Az shouted.
Alfred quickly used his mad technokinesis to create a spaceship from televisions and automobiles, and all the heroes piled in, once again ready to save the world.
After about five minutes of flying, they all became incredibly bored. Jams suddenly began oozing, and it was all Laura could do to draw a ziplock bag and save Jams from leaking into the vacuum of space.
Az laughed. “Look there’s a giant space squid!” And indeed there was. She looked up, thinking, and suddenly, right beside it was a rather epic cheese castle.
While everyone was admiring Az’s imagination handiwork, Fitz, hungry again, stole a bit of Jams. “Grape, my favorite!” she exclaimed.
“Favorite what?” asked The Found Foe.
“Um…Favorite rhino…popsicle…berry?”
“You took a bite
of Jams because always
hungry, didn’t you?” Laura asked suspiciously.
“Yub,” Jams bubbled.
Fitz blushed. “Just a littled?”
There was an awkward silence around the cabin, before Laura broke it. “Well was it good?
Did it taste as it should?”
“Yes!” Fitz w00t!ed.
They then all descended upon the helpless Jams.
Suddenly, Amber’s voice blew them away with its perfect diction. “Stop eating…it!”
While everyone was distracted by the sudden announcement of Amber, who had been lurking in the shadows, Jams chose to make her exit, oozing from her bag and into space, riding on the giant space squid’s back.
Az remember that she could move objects with her mind, and helped them vroom super fast, so they got there only 2 minutes later, landing in a cloud of cheese dust.
Jojo had been right! Sitting in space, right above the moon was a giant purple interdimensional spacetime warp! Everyone ohnoe’d and fear’d in horror. After the initial shock passed, they began suggesting ideas.
“How about we eat it?” Fitz suggested.
“How about we move it to Venus?” Az said.
“How about we…” Raiz spat out a paragraph’s worth of technobabble, but no one understood his supreme intelligence, so he was left to once again smack his head.
“How about we ask it to leave?” Alfred asked, very rational.
“Maybe if we welcome it…” Amber trailed off.
Fitz accidentally looked at Raiz and singed his cheese. “Oops!”
Amber glared.
“But…”
While the heroes were arguing, the bot had decided to take matters into it’s own metal hands. He gripped the portal walls and closed it, normalizing the universe.
“Whoa!” Fitz exclaimed.
Amber clapped. Everyone followed suit, except Raiz, who head-banged. “Ah well, I guess it’s time to go home, then.” Amber smiled.
They piled back into the spaceship. So elated by their success, they failed to notice Jams, still sitting on the squid…plotting to get her revenge.

I... didn't understand that. It comes across to me as either one big in-joke, or writing down something that sounds really cool in your head without spending that extra step to translate it into something that others can understand.
Right now, it's extremely random and eclectic. Before I've even fully realized what just happened and how it happened, something new has occurred. It's sort of like a game of Pinball.
I think it needs a paragraph or five of exposition. Introduce the characters and the setting, and let us discover who they are under normal circumstances. Then, once everything is established, introduce the conflict (the superpowers that they obtain, I'm assuming). Throughout the rest of it, add transitions and establishing descriptions to keep people on track.
Of course, if this is only intended for yourself and your friends who are in on the joke, then by all means ignore everything I just said.

It is indeed an in-joke, Eli.
Although if I ever decided to seriously write a story on this subject, I'll keep in mind all that you've said.
