A lot of characters from musicals and movie-musicals get together completely by accident. Muahahahahaha. Going to be multi-chaptered, when I find enough time and inspiration to update.

"So. What were we doing again?" a somewhat false-sounding feminine voice asked, the owner peering into a mirror and applying makeup. The owner of the voice was an oddly manly-looking woman. She set aside the makeup and turned away from the mirror. "Hand me those balloons, will you?" she asked.
Her companion obeyed, handing the woman a pair of balloons as he replied, "We were going to see who would fall into our trap. Remember?" He wore a cape, which concealed most of his body. The only visible part of him was his heavily made-up face.
"Oh yeah. I remember now. I hope we get my girlfriend," the woman said with a sneer. She was oddly flat-chested, which she was going to fix with the two balloons, now filled with rice. "I really don't get why people throw all that rice at weddings. Oh well. I don't care, it means I can use what I grab." She slipped the balloons into the front of her shirt, then glanced over at the mirror again, running her fingers through her short black hair that looked like it was spiked up with half a bottle of hair gel. She messed up her hair a bit, then gave up. She peered at her reflection more closely. "Think I should shave?" she asked.
The man sighed. "Yes, it would probably be for the best. What am I supposed to call you, anyways? You really have too many names."
"Call me Mrs. Luce," she replied as she pawed through her purse and pulled out a razor and shaving cream. "It shouldn't be too hard to remember. This is my only woman disguise, Doctor." Both Luce and the man were doctors. Luce, as her normal self, was a dentist, and her companion was a scientist. She began lathering up her face with the shaving cream.
"First name still Orin?"
Luce paused for a moment. "You know, Frank, I never thought about that before," she admitted. She thought for a moment, then decided, "Nah, just pick a girly-sounding name and call me that." She resumed her shaving.
Frank thought for a moment. "Audrey a good name?"
"Nope. That's my girlfriend's name."
"How about Lucy?"
Luce blinked, then turned to face Frank, giving him an annoyed glare. "Lucy Luce?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
"It could work!" Frank protested. Realizing that it probably wasn't going to happen, he sighed. "How about Ethel?"
Luce shuddered. "Just call me Luce," she snapped, before Frank could suggest any other names. "Seriously, those are all horrible names."
Before Frank could reply, the doorbell rang loudly. There was the sound of the door creaking open, and the two could clearly hear the thunderstorm outside. Luce and Frank glanced at each other, then grinned. "We got 'em," Luce sneered, giggling softly. Even if she wasn't a real woman, she had an incredibly high-pitched, creepy-sounding laugh. "Wonder who we got?"
"Only one way to find out." Frank grinned, and nodded at his elevator. "Maybe they'll stay for the night, and... hehehehehehe..." Luce looked like she was about to ask, but then seemed to change her mind. She allowed Frank to push her into the elevator ahead of him, and the two soon began their descent into the lower section of the huge mansion.
