The Secret Lives of Fruit: A Soap Opera About the Making of Smoothies

Fruit Porn: Strawberry-Banana

Strawberry's skin was so shiny... Banana thought about it all the time: it's red luminescence glimmering beneath the sunlight, catching the faint green tints that were still evident. It was just that Strawberry was so young. Far too young for Banana, who at most times wore his brown spots with grace and decorum, but now... Now he wished that he was still green, of an appropriate age for Strawberry. And he knew-- he just knew-- that if they could be blended together, smoothed into one being by the thrust of the Blades and the Gyration of the machine, they would make the tastiest fruit drink known to the modern world-- a Strawberry-Banana Smoothie of sweet, epic love.

Fruit Porn: Banana-Coconut

Coconut was lovely. Banana had known it objectively for a while now-- that soft, furry brown outside, the sweet, milky inside-- but he had always been too caught up by how pretty Strawberry was to really notice. But ever since Strawberry had run off with Chocolate and the two of them had been blended together-- loudly, leaving some suspicious splatters on the ceiling-- Banana had realized that maybe it was time to stop musing over the Forbidden Love That Had Never Been between him and Strawberry and focus on something else.

Coconut. Soft, beautiful Coconut, with the strange exterior that hid the soft heart within. Coconut, who loved Banana back.

They were blended on a hot summer evening, Coconut's saccharine milk spilling over the Blades, thrust into Banana's soft center and pushed through him. The Gyration spread it into Banana, rocking them together until they were covered with froth. Then, they rested, still trembling from the recent Vibration, their sweet, tangy love spilling over in a mess of Coconut-Banana Tropical Smoothie.

Fruit Porn: Mixed Berry

It wasn't normal. One usually Blended with only one other fruit, like the Banana-Coconut union, or some sort of Chocolate, like the Strawberry-Chocolate union. But Blackberry, Blueberry, and Raspberry had wanted this for so long that they couldn't be denied, despite the objections of the rest of the basket.

One night, they stole away from the other fruit in the dead of night, making their way to the blender in silence. With no one around to see or hear, the strength of their Blending made the Blades tremble and the Motor splutter. The Gyration spun Blackberry into Blueberry, Raspberry into Blackberry. They couldn't tell where one of them began and the other ended.

Now, no one could separate them, or call their Love seedy. All of their seeds now were, after all, Blended into One smoothie of Pure Devotion.
