lilfluffThis is to perfectworry's prompt to my January Bingo Prompt call.
This one is almost short enough to be a drabble. Okay, almost 50% to long to meet the hardline drabble length limit, but that's still quite short. I almost never manage that.

"I didn't know this really happened."
"What are you talking about?" My roommate came in and I couldn't help but stare. He had something greenish-gray and wrinkled in his hand. At a second look it was translucent and glowing. "What the heck is that?"
"You know how much trouble I've been having all semester?"
"Dude, this whole year."
"Right. Well I was bored and started pulling boxes out from under the bed. I thought I had a box with a six pack of Jolt."
"You're kidding. Do they even make that anymore?"
"I think so. There's still some on the shelf at the corner store back home. Anyway, I opened the box and this was in it instead. I think I misplaced my mind when I was packing."
"Right, pull the other... Huh. It does sorta look like a brain."
"So what the hell do I do with it?"
