"You have all made my usually periwinke orbs, turn a bright magenta!" Mare said while making a giant banner of herself with Nick Carter.

I'm not a big fan of present tense for a whole story, either, though I have read some excellent published books that are written that way.  It just takes some getting used to, since most fiction is written in past tense.
