Gone to this script's faring's every one
When will she ever learn...

I'm editing this script for someone I'd rather not mention. It's for her thesis. I'm not any kind of Media Arts, Literature or English major but my grammar is better than this even when I'm stoned from lack of sleep IMHO. The usage of "on" instead of "in", sentences with no verbs, and lots of redundant words or words with conflicting meanings in one sentence, what the heck! If I ever write as bad as this I want someone to tell me so that I can fall on~~with~~ my pen ASAP. (Ooops, now I'm catching her habits, dangnabit!)

Very sorry to phoenixboy, I kept losing the file during transfer to my connected computer...

Title: An Old Married Couple

Author's Notes: Dedicated to my beta reader, Phoenix Boy. unbeta'ed.

Pairings: Sanada/OFC, Kirihara/Tachibana An, Yanagi/Inui, Kaidoh/Inui

Rating: PG13

Summary: It's hard to get a date when everyone thinks you're taken, Yukimura and Sanada trying to find dates and being thwarted. Straight!Sanada. shounen ai with side het.

"Do we have to say it over the Public Announcement System that we are not dating?"

An Old Married Couple

Yukimura was looking over the street courts with an appraising eye. There were several good tennis players out today which was good for his purposes. He had not only come to Tokyo to play tennis since he could have stayed at Kanagawa and called someone out to him or arranged an unofficial team practice. He had come for another purpose and that was to case Tokyo players for a potential boyfriend. He had been shelving his hormones for the good of the team, but now, that it was a non-issue for at least a year, he could go about doing something about them.

Someone who can hold my interest off the court as well as on it…

That meant someone with passable looks as well as good tennis skills and was, at least, bi. Most of his team was straight like Genichiro or dating each other like Bunta and Jackal.

Or in somewhat complicated circumstances… Hyotei and Fudomine over there, most of the Seigaku over here… Is that Seigaku's Inui with Rokaku's Ishida?

That reminded him of the reason why he had not considered Renji. Given that he could pry Yanagi from his obsession with his childhood doubles partner, which he pretty much doubt was possible, he didn't want the inevitable fallout if they didn't work out. He was still slightly shocked about what he had discovered about his friend the previous semester.

"Renji, do you have…"

Yanagi was lost in his little world as he was obviously cackling in his own understated way over something.

Possibly some new data about our competitors at the Nationals…

Yukimura leaned over and tapped Yanagi on the shoulder, inadvertently getting a peek at the letter Yanagi was editing on a scrap piece of paper.

Kaidoh Kaoru-san,

We regretfully inform you that you have an advance case of syphilis and must undergo…

Eh, what was that?

"…The revised training menu for the Regulars?" Yukimura finished smoothly without showing how disturbed he was. He had lots of practice on the court after all.

xxx

Yukimura later learned that Kaidoh Kaoru was Inui's current doubles partner and the two were Seigaku Regulars. Given what he knew about Yanagi's history with Inui, it wasn't hard for Yukimura figure it out for himself.

And those calls and visits to Tokyo…no, I don't even want to know!

It was the quiet ones that you had to watch out for. As much as Yukimura had a wicked side, he wasn't the stalker type and he didn't want to be attached to one, thank you very much! He briefly considered courting Inui though.

He is attractive in a nerdy sort of way, but as amusing as it would be to dodge Renji's death threats, it would undermine the team…Ah well…A pity Tezuka's straight…

Yukimura's thoughts took a sideways turn as he took in the graceful arc the Seigaku captain made as he served. He knew with an unwavering certainty where Tezuka's preferences lay despite rumors to the contrary. His instincts when it came to that were quite infallible.

"Fu, better not be eying that one, he's taken." A wavy-haired boy in a blue-trimmed white jersey said in an overly familiar manner that leeched all the softness out of blue eyes.

"And…you are?" There is a soft edge to Yukimura's voice that the newcomer ignored. The other tennis player was wearing an unfamiliar uniform and from the way Yukimura's mind groped for a name, he knew that this person was not someone who made it to the Regionals.

"Mizuki Hajime from St. Rudolph. Seigaku's Fuji is dating his Tezuka-buchou."

"Tsk, tsk, Mizuki, you are only saying that because you were rejected by Fuji-kun and can't accept it. Ore-sama quite approves of that action, by the way. Sanada's wife is not in the market anyway, and there is no crime in looking when there is something worth looking at." Atobe looked Mizuki up and down dismissively and it made the presumptuous tennis player sputter at the implication that he wasn't worthy of such attention. While he spluttered, Atobe and Yukimura had moved on a little ways to another part of the courts.

That was fairly amusing…but wait, Sanada's wife?

"And why would you think, I was the wife or even that I was involved with Genichiro at all?" It was a low dangerous purr. It might be because Yukimura looked feminine or that he preferred the same sex or both that he hated being referred to as "the wife".

Atobe just rolled his eyes at Yukimura.

"Ore-sama has eyes! And anyone who's seen you together knows. If you're not his wife, then Sanada is your wife. You're practically joined at the hip."

"We are not joined at the hip. As you can see if you have eyes, I am here without him." Yukimura's smile was cast in pure steel, the same way it was during a title match.

"Then Ore-sama posits that you have quarreled and are on the prowl. No one would come near you at any event, they're too afraid that Sanada would tear them limb from limb when he finds out."

This could be a problem.

"I say this again, we are not involved. My friend is very straight." Yukimura forced his temper down and managed his usual gentle tone.

"Your straight man you mean? Ore-sama is not a fool. That is what they all say when they're trying to find some temporary entertainment." Atobe sniffed, still completely unconvinced. That certainly set the tone for the afternoon.

"Are you challenging my word, Atobe?" Now, this was familiar ground.

"Humph. Ore-sama is."

Yukimura could almost admire the way Atobe refused to be intimidated by gentle firmness in his voice and from then on, the conversation somehow devolved into a tennis match that Yukimura had won seven-to-five.

Eh? I need to talk to Genichiro about this…

xxx

When Sanada asked Ayumi Kirasawa out, he didn't think he would make the quiet composed girl lose her cool. It was unsettling since it was one of the things he liked about her. The girl was pretty in a longhaired conservative way and she was also smart, taking the top honors along with Renji in their year.

"Would you go out with me?" Sanada asked, blushing a bit. He wasn't used to this, despite resolving to get a better social life while he had no club practices to manage.

"Um…Sanada-san…I don't think Yukimura-san would take to that kindly." The girl sputtered and paled, brushing a hand along her hair, uncharacteristically nervous.

"Why would he?" Sanada asked, rather puzzled. She was the third girl he had asked on the date and the first one to give a reason for rejecting him.

What does Seiichi have anything to do with me asking her out?

"Aren't you…exclusive?"

"Exclusive?" Sanada blinked at that.

"As in together as a couple." Ayumi coughed delicately.

"NO! I mean I'm straight and I've known Seiichi all my life."

Is that why…

"I'm disappointed in you, Sanada-san. Making excuses and cheating on Yukimura-san like this." The girl's long hair waved indignantly back at Sanada as she flounced away in a huff.

"But…"

Is that what they all think?

xxx

"It has come to our attention, Genichiro, that you have been asking around for a date. Now, you might have quarreled with Yukimura and he's recently been spotted tomcatting on the street courts but there's no reason you can talk whatever it is out. Considering it can't be that large a fight since I'm your best friend and I haven't heard anything about this disagreement." Yanagi said as he stared at Sanada.

Yanagi and the rest of the team had cornered and dragged Sanada over to a neighboring McDonald's without so much as a by your leave.

"Yanagi-senpai is right, you know. You and Yukimura-buchou had been together for so long, you shouldn't just break up over some small argument, fukubuchou." Marui said in between spoonfuls of sundae.

"We are not dating. I'm straight."

"Oh? Seiichi will be very disappointed in you."

"Idiotic fukubuchou doesn't know a good thing when he sees one. If I weren't straight, I'd totally go for Yukimura-buchou." Kirihara muttered.

Most of the other Regulars nodded at that and no amount of protesting could get them to see that they were wrong.

"Just patch up, ne? For your own good as well as the good of the team." There was a general rumble of discontent from the Regulars that made him forbore any more arguments.

"Seiichi, we aren't dating, are we?" Genichiro asked so plaintively. It was so out of character for his friend and former vice-captain that Yukimura blinked at him. They were in his house as always, hanging out in his living room. They usually did this every Thursday and Renji joined them on occasion when he wasn't busy with a project. It was routine, Thursdays with Gen and Renji, while Fridays with the all of the team.

"We aren't dating. Why would you think we were, Genichiro?"

"Because everyone in school thinks so."

So they also think so? This is getting out of hand…

"You tried to ask a girl out." Yukimura couldn't resist smiling at the image.

"Yes, several, but they all rejected me and the rest of the team threatened me for being unfaithful to you." There was a story there, Yukimura knew.

"Have you tried explaining that we were just friends?"

Like I did…

"Yes, but then they accused me of making excuses."

"A girl outside of school, perhaps?"

"Who would I ask?"

Hmmm. Who?

Yukimura couldn't quite recall any girls since there were none in the junior high tennis circuit he frequented. He wasn't interested in them romantically and they weren't competing in tennis with him.

Wait, didn't one of the nationally ranked players have a very dedicated sister? The Fudomine ex-captain was it…Tachibana…

"Tachibana An?"

"Akaya would kill me."

"Oh, is she Akaya's crush of the week? I thought it was that girl, Karin in the first year. He'll get over it. Though I'm not sure that dating out of school is all that feasible either. I've asked around and it seems that everyone thinks we're dating."

"WHAT?"

"I was at the Tokyo street courts the other day, and I heard someone's assumptions about us." Yukimura knew his friend well and knew that the details of his conversation with Mizuki and Atobe would just embarrass Genichiro.

"Where could they have gotten that idea?"

"Being close friends, I suppose they think we're in a relationship. You did visit me at the hospital more than the other members of the team, barring Renji." He wasn't going to mention that the murmurs he heard while playing Atobe that maybe they and Renji were 'all in it together'.

Keeping out of unofficial matches and my long stay in the hospital has gotten me out of the loop when it comes to certain rumors…

There had been no rumors about him and Genichiro prior to his hospitalization.

Must be have been the way Genichiro went completely obsessed with winning when I was gone fueling rumors. Funny how they didn't think that of Akaya or the whole team considering.

This was an odd situation they had gotten themselves into.

I hate microsoft installs soooo complicated. *wails* I only need to install one program from a suite of programs for my sister. We had four or five programs from the same suite installed already previously before a hard drive crash in which all the drive letters have been bollixed up. The answer "Abandon all ye hope, who have installed this particular suite." There is no way I've found to install it.

In the web, there's lol!kitties and in the game of World of Warcraft there's lol!druids. Transforming into bears, kitties, trees and big fat chickens(boomkins) seems to bring out the sense of humor in people:

* Druid Raid Officers in the Boulderfist server are known for their bear dances in the town square. They've also done up a boomkin parade filling up the bank with boomkins and there's the bookend bears sitting by the entrance to the castle.

* The sound of one hand clapping is the damage of a Tree of Life slapping! Several waggish druids play at being treants (summoned pets that hit hard) by transforming into Tree of Life form (heals but doesn't do damage at all!) and mobbing someone in the battleground.

< fic > Big Brother 5/?

Sat, 26 Apr 2008 06:02:36 GMT

Title: Big Brother

Rating: T

Warning: It's in Hiruma's Point of View and he's not particularly clean mouthed.

Pairing: Many-People/Sena, Hiruma/Mamori

Disclaimer: I don't own Eyeshield 21.

Spoilers: Manga. XD

Summary: Hiruma never thought that he was going to ever be a protective 'big brother' to anyone until clueless Sena starts bringing in football aces into the yard!

Of Mice and (Mer)Men

Kakei was surprised when his teammate Akaba had asked if he could join them in the public baths. The red-eyed ace looked at him and the rest of the ex-Poseidons strangely for their attachment to the bathhouse and rarely joined them.

Maybe he's feeling sociable?

Akaba was a nice enough guy outside football and hung around with the team often enough when his music lessons permitted. His shadow was more annoying than he was. Though Kotaro had finally worn down Julie's resistance and thus was often not around because of dates. Unfortunately, this was not one of those times.

"Hanging out at the public baths with teammates! Smart!"

"Fuuu."

Kakei didn't know how Akaba could tolerate so much nonsense in every given day.

He must have the patience of Buddha…

Really, Mizumachi might occasionally be dense or overenthusiastic but Kotaro definitely had him beat.

Besides, Kengo is usually too busy trying to peek into the women's side of the bath to make so much noise…like now… Relax…just let it go…

"Well, there are so many no-talent trashes in the pool." A familiar voice insinuated from the bathhouse door and Kakei looked up to find Kongo Agon entering the baths with his brother Unsui.

Oh great. What is it about today? Annoy Kakei Shun Day?

"Who are you calling trashes?"

"If it jangles like a broken chord, ignore it."

Except for his way with words…when he's trying to be clever…

"Anou Kakei, did you invite all of them over here?" Mizumachi asked, looking up from where he'd been swimming.

Kakei really felt like a headache coming on.

Agon didn't have the chance to do anything about the remarks because at that moment several familiar faces entered the bath.

"My there are a lot of people in this bath today, I'd say." Marco of the Hakushu Dinosaurs said this to Gaou who was visible even behind the crowd of people.

"This bath should be honored by mine presence." Harao of the Taiyo Sphinx said to Banba who was beside him.

The entrance of some of the biggest football players in Kanto marked the rushed exodus of several of the men who had been sitting in the other pools.

"What is this the Kanto Region Reunion for Amefuto players? If so, would it be better done in a restaurant?" Akaba asked, blinking at the newcomers.

"Hahaha, it's seems that we all decided to go to the same bathhouse today. Relaxing isn't it." The way the blond flipped his hair reminded Kakei of some of the more flirtatious girls in the cheerleading team.

Who is he fooling? And what was his name again? Ki—Kira—Kisaki? No, it was longer than that but close, ah, and it was a month name…Kisaragi! That's it…

Somehow that laugh didn't quite assure Kakei.

Wonder why they're really here…

"Hello, Kakei-kun, Akaba-san, Banba-san, Harao-san…"

"Oi, trash, are you forgetting someone?"

"Hieeee! Kongo-san and Kongo-san…" Poor Sena nearly jumped out of his skin when he noticed the two people from Shinryuuji.

I swear he did that on purpose…

"Sena-kun." Kakei rather liked the younger boy on sight the first time he met him.

Such a nervous person…he's such a mouse…

"Now, Sena-kun, don't forget about us." The effeminate blond pouted at him.

"Ahh…hie…Kisaragi-san, Gaou-san and Marco-san."

"Yo, Sena." Someone from behind Sena said.

"Riku! Kid-san and Tetsuma-san." Sena bobbed his head at the newcomers as he proceeded to pool.

At least Seibu don't make him that nervous… He's downright friendly towards them…

Kakei fought the urge to rub his temples. It was not helped that he was being increasingly aware that most of the players were glaring at him.

Now what did I do to piss in their miso? Curious…

He hadn't done anything unusual on or off the field to merit the glares.

"Kakei-san, thank you for finding my watch the other day." Sena smiled at him and he noticed that the glares had gone up exponentially, even his own teammate Akaba was now glaring at him with that vicious look that the guitar player reserved for their worst rival on the field, which currently was Oujo.

Eh? What's this?

"It was no trouble, Sena-kun." Kakei smiled sweetly at the earnest boy. The glares were turning up a notch confirming his suspicions. If glares could set him afire, he'd have combusted already.

So that's the way it is, eh? I think some vengeance is in order.

Sena wasn't Kakei's type but if they were going to be annoying about it…

"So how is school?" Kakei knows he's laughably transparent at the way he slid over to Sena but he's never had any practice flirting before and it does the trick anyway. He has the attention of every football playing male in the room.

Well, almost…

Harao and Banba were eying Mizumachi akin to a shark that scented some prey, glaring at him as his pile of wooden buckets were getting high enough to show their true purpose. Kakei dismissed them and concentrated on aggravating as many of the others as he could.

If they turn any greener they've be mistaken for moss!

None of the other players were "relaxing" at all. To be fair, more than half were eying him and their respective teammates apprehensively.

Probably here to prevent the carnage from happening…

Well, if that's the case he could make them all turn green to his heart's content and then inform them later subtly and insultingly that he had no intentions whatsoever on Sena.

"It's going quite well, Kakei-san. How about you?" Sena beamed at him, oblivously.

"Well, I'm…" Kakei never got to finish that sentence. At that moment, Mizumachi tried to implement his plan and Harao and Banba pounced and, suddenly, Sena was catapulted with a squeak into Kakei's arms and both of them wound up flying out of the pool with Kakei landing on the hard floor and rolling instinctively on top of Sena.

Ouch, that hurt!

Note that this would never had happened had Kakei not been distracted by his annoyance, he always made a point to remove himself from the trajectory Mizumachi would end up flying in.

"Se…na…kun…ahem…WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO SENA, YOU PERVERT?" Sakuraba asked. His glare was imposingly despite the fact that he was only wearing a tiny towel. That started the avalanche of accusations and the brawl that followed culminated finally in having the other football players, except for Sena, being thrown out.-1-

It's a good thing the manager knows us from Kyoshin or we'd never be able to go to that bathhouse again…

Author's Notes:

-1- I bet Hiruma'snow regretting his planned distraction.

Sorry it took so long, I had a hard time writing the last part of this chapter.

Updates, updates...

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 23:24:22 GMT

Finally finished editing chapter 5 of Big Brother to my satisfaction, hopefully I'll post it on Saturday when I have transfer access to my working comp. Blind Go fic is going well, prolly posting that early so I don't fret over it too much. Still editing that Fic Idea From Hell that refuses to look like a decent story.

Laaaaaaaaaaaaazy Ramble

Wed, 09 Apr 2008 06:41:16 GMT

I'm feeling lazy and naughty and thinking "hmmmm, maybe I shouldn't release a fic 'coz I can use the idea for blind go instead of the idea I'm currently writing with 'coz the fic in the current idea is going to be loooong...and I can make it short with the other idea." Though ugh, it'll probably look a little slapdash and *makes a face* really not realistic, considering the idea is something I tailored for another anime fandom, even so, very, very tempted.

"Big Brother" update stalled, the chapter looks like it's boring and needs a few revisions. XP

< fic > Daddy's Little Girl < ficlet set >

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:06:10 GMT

Title: Daddy's Little Girl

Rating: T for safety

Pairings: Ryousuke/Takumi

Disclaimers: I don't own "Initial D" or "Kakumei no Hi"(Day of the Revolution).

Author's Notes: I have only read the manga up to chapter 250+ and the First to Fourth Stage anime so I might be missing something from the Extra Stage or Battle Stage, and anyway this is the "Fusion from Hell" that won't let me be. I know I've got several unfinished fics still out there but…

Summary: An idea fusion with Kakumei no Hi, Takumi discovers that he is actually a she and now he's come back after surgery to knock 'em dead in other ways other than racing…gender bender

Teaser: But Wataru knew that this was Takumi they were talking about, his male sort-of-friend, or maybe it's now his friend who was sort-of-male…

Daddy's Little Girl

1. Impact Blue

Takumi wasn't sure that this was a good idea but he only girl he could think of offhand was Mogi Natsuki and it seemed wrong to hi—her to approach his almost girlfriend for this sort of thing. So here he was.

"Cute! Takumi makes a cute girl, doesn't she?" Sayuki squealed after the initial surprise that rendered the two girls from Impact Blue speechless.

Maybe this isn't such a good idea after all…

"Yes, you do."

"So did you tell Project D yet?"

Um…" Takumi could feel his cheeks heat up at the thought. He wasn't as shy with Ryousuke-san as he had been before the year they took to the road but he was still in awe of him.

Not to mention what Keisuke-san would say…

Keisuke would have plenty to say about this.

And nothing I would like to hear…

This would give the FD driver teasing fodder for months, no, years!

"I take it that you haven't."

"The project is on hiatus for a year, while Ryousuke-san works on getting it sponsored."

"So, how many months till it's on again?"

"Three months."

"All right, we'll get you acting like a girl by that time."

"Yeah, can't wait for them to see you!"

"Sayuki!" Takumi was blushing too badly to reply but Mako did it for her.

"Hey, since we're all just racing girls here. Let's call each other by our first names. You do know our names right? I'm Sayuki and she's Mako."

Forget Keisuke-san, I'm going to die from Sayuki-san's teasing…

Takumi thought as he lit up like the FD on acceleration at the emphasis on girls.

"Yes, Sayuki-san."

"Not Sayuki-san, just Sayuki. Say it with me Sa-yu-ki."

"Sayuki!"

"There you go. Now the first thing we need to do is shop for some clothes…you look like a size seven…" Sayuki babbled as she mo—measured Takumi's chest with her hands.

I'm in hell…

2. The OTHER Eight-Six Driver

"You called me here to do what?" Wataru knew that there was something funny about Takumi's voice when he talked to the other driver over the phone but he never expected something like this.

"You were the first person I thought to ask, Wataru-san."

"Why didn't you ask one of the Takahashis or your friends here in Akina?"

"Er."

"Akiyama-san, hi—her friends are way too unsettled by her appearance right now."

"Mako, you're too kind. Let's just say she knocked 'em dead with her great bod and be done with it."

"Sayuki!"

"What?"

Wataru could see that the mischievous woman was having a field day with his fellow Eight-Six driver.

Well, she does have "a great bod" so to speak…

Fujiwara didn't have big breasts like Sayuki but he did have decent curves and his face that looked rather dumb looking for a guy looked pretty, cast in a feminine light.

Did he have facial surgery as well? Nah, the guy never showed any sign of vanity ever… If I didn't know better, I'd say she makes a good-looking girl…

But Wataru knew that this was Takumi they were talking about, his male sort-of-friend, or maybe it's now his friend who was sort-of-male and he was never the type to go for guys.

"You're her friend and she needs to get use to dealing with guys as a woman. So are you going to help her or not?"

I know I'm going to regret this…but I can't wait to see how some of other guys react to this…The arrogant brats from the Toudou School, just for starters…

There were few female drivers in the mountain passes and no one has so far been Takumi's equal.

H…She defeated that pro of theirs according to the rumor mill…

"All right, what do you want me to do?"

3. The Rotary Brothers

"Brother, I didn't bring you to the beach just so you can type into your computer all day long." Takahashi Keisuke huffed. The steady clicking of the keyboard punctuated his remark.

"Hmm? I need to finish these reports so I can meet with the sponsors later."

"All work and no play… Besides, don't you think those girls playing volleyball over there are sexy? Especially the one in the sapphire bikini?"

"Should you be ogling them? You already have a girlfriend."

"Brother! Kyoko and I are not exclusive yet! Besides…" Keisuke noticed the slight quirk in his elder brother's lips and realized he'd just been had.

"I give up!" If Ryousuke did not even look up at all throughout the conversation even when he was teasing Keisuke, then there was probably nothing short of a national disaster that could get him to look up from his laptop.

"I'm going to get some ice cream, do you want so—?"

Suddenly, a volleyball whooshed by Keisuke to slam into the back of the laptop's screen.

"…get it." The girl Keisuke was ogling said to one of her friends who were closer.

A bit flat-chested but still pretty enough…

The girl was wearing a brown bathing suit. She had the smallest chest among her friends.

Though since both her friends have really--well developed--assets…maybe it's just in comparison…

Now that she was walking towards them, Keisuke could see that the girl was very shapely in a coltish sort of way.

Not my type, though she seems familiar…maybe we've met before?

xxx

Oh great! It hit a guy's laptop…

"Takumi, you're the closest one. Go get it." Sayuki said merrily, the same a mischievous sparkle in her eyes that Takumi had learned to distrust.

She probably did that on purpose…

Takumi knew there was no way she could get out of this one though so she went to apologize to the guy and get their ball back. As she approached the man, she noticed he wasn't alone and that they seemed to be familiar.

Oh shit!

That was all Takumi had time to think about before she was there and there was no getting around it.

Maybe I can get away without introducing myself…but then, I'll have to do that sooner or later…and it's going to get worse the more I put it off…

Unfortunately, Takumi's luck had run out.

"Hello miss, you seem familiar. Have we met before?" Ryousuke-san asked her flat out.

I'd rather face a sheer drop on a mountain pass than this…

Panicking, she let out a squeak.

xxx

"Hello miss, you seem familiar. Have we met before?" Ryousuke had beaten Keisuke to the punch asking the question he wanted to ask.

She's also familiar to Ryousuke? We might have met her somewhere before and what's with Ryousuke?

There was real interest in the question and it was the first time Keisuke ever seen his older brother show any interest in a girl other than their cousin. The question turned the girl very red and she squeaked.

Is she a fan?

Keisuke could see the girl's breaths come fast and shallow and wondered if he should be ready to catch her.

There was that one time in Nagoya with that fan of Ryousuke's who came face to face with him and…

Ryousuke was a gentleman but he wasn't the type to catch strange girls if they fainted in front of him. Keisuke had to pick up the slack and catch the poor girl before she hit the ground.

"Um…Ryousuke-san…"

Where have I heard that voice before? Though it's kinda strange, I could have sworn it should be an octave or so higher…

That tone was also familiar.

"Takumi, why are you taking so long?" The woman Keisuke was admiring earlier yelled impishly.

Huh?

But Keisuke's brain was putting things together and making its own conclusions.

"Fujiwara? How?" Ryousuke asked, looking very stunned.

Keisuke would have teased his older brother if his brain didn't feel so broken by the realization that this was the other driver of Project D.

Title:Dog Analogies
Rating:T for swearing
Pairing:none, or maybe a hint of Hiruma/Sena if you squint very very hard? (Resistance is futile, you shall be assimilated!)
Disclaimer:I don't own Eyeshield 21.
Summary:Hiruma on dog analogies and football players…

Dog Analogies

Hiruma was fond of damned mutts. He had Cerberus, after all, so he would assume that everyone and their fucking mother knew that. He knew most of the hundred or so damned breeds of dogs and knew several of them by appearance as well as name.

A darn bulldog for a fucking football player seems clichéd but heck! I'm surrounded by "bulldogs" all the damned time… Stereotypes become fucking stereotypes for a damned reason, I guess…

Most football players reminded Hiruma of bulldogs, even that damned monster Shin had the look of full-faced belligerence. There were fucking few players who looked differently.

Racoon-Eyes, for one, that serious huffy look on his face makes him look like a Siberian Husky and his sidekick with that enthusiasm and hair looks like a fucking Shi Tzu. Damned Cowboy always stood out as a rangy dingo among bulldogs and that twerp sidekick of his, an annoying whippet. That ex-MVP looked like a Doberman with that vicious look on his face. Dreads is like a fucking poodle with that fucking funny haircut and high-maintenance attitude…

Hiruma liked to think of himself as a damned fine greyhound, sleek and grinning.

"Hiruma-san, everyone's already set for practice."

"Coming, fucking shrimp." The fluffy hair and the big brown eyes always made Hiruma soften his voice ever so slightly. It was barely noticeable but it earned an earnest smile as he closed his laptop and stood up.

Damned shrimp…

Hiruma tried not to let it bother him too much since he knew almost everyone in Amefuto did that when it came to the shrimp.

Heck! The shrimp had gotten tea from Racoon-Eyes when he went spying at Kyoshin Academy, then gotten a smile out of the ex-MVP, later. And despite what Dreads say, even he gets a bit soft when it comes to the shrimp. After all, who can resist idiot puppies…

-The End-

Author's Notes:
Some of the analogies actually came from my sister, she even pointed out the "Puppy!" reaction for most of the players.

Bah, I should be working on other things or "Big Brother" but I've actually started another Eyeshield 21 story called "Lucky Guy" and updated the Initial D crossover fusion "Daddy's Little Girl" instead of "Big Brother" which is currently stuck *makes a face and shrugs*. Gah, should be working or on original fics or what not...

Summary: Hiruma never thought that he was going to ever be a protective 'big brother' to anyone until clueless Sena starts bringing in football aces into the yard!

To the batmo—I mean—bathhouse!

"Didn't you hear that Kobayakawa-san goes to this particular bathhouse near Takeda U about every two weeks?"

"Maybe he has a girlfriend going to school there?"

"I'm so jealous."

Hiruma could see the fucking Pretty Boy's eye twitch as Sakuraba entered their classroom.

Ya-Ha! Mission Accomplished...

xxx

"Idiot, time to pay up...yes, tell him in Red Eyes in sight, all right." Hiruma said into his cell phone.

Akaba had gone to Takeda University as well, possibly impressed by Raccoon-Eyes when they had that Death Game with Deimon. He was someone Hiruma knew to be blatantly eying Sena every time he could, smiling ever so often in a manner that made Hiruma suspect he was thinking something perverted.

Heck, bet he'd been fucking eying the shrimp since he'd met him...

"Should I go just to make sure?"

Hiruma thought of it for a moment.

I do need someone to run fucking interference but the Idiot would probably forget if something amusing came along...

Red had the attention span of a fucking hamster on acid sometimes.

"No, I'll be making other fucking arrangements."

"Awww, but I want to see my sempai's face..."

"Fine, fine." Hiruma would just have to arrange for something to distract the redhead.

And a few uninterested parties to be there in the bathhouse as well...and I just know the trick for it...

xxx

Harao for all his harem of delicate beauties had a weakness for tall busty muscular types. It was a simple matter to tell Fatty that Banba liked those kinds of girls and giving his gullible friend a picture of the former Kyoshin cheerleader. Hiruma knew that all the Kyoshin Amefuto team and their cheerleaders had gone to Takeda University since Kyoshin was one of its feeder schools.

And it's fucking next door to Kyoshin that they don't need to disrupt that damned bathhouse ritual of theirs...Heh, the Sphinxes are just perfect for fucking running interference... Three down, three left to go. Now, I've got to get to Fucking Eyelashes, and Dreads...Mamori could probably inform the Twerp...

Taunting the former Dinosaurs and the Nagas were a fucking personal sport of Hiruma's.

I can count on the Three Eggs to go together to the bathhouse since Slick-Head's going, Fucking Eyelashes and that Damned Giant always support him...Dreads always hang about near the fucking train station one Friday afternoon a damned month to catch a look at the Shrimp...and that fucking Friday is today...

Hiruma cackled. He might not be able to go to the bathhouse with the fucking shrimp due to the administrative meeting for all club captains scheduled exactly on the day that Sena was going but he could make sure that nothing was going to happen there.

Well, almost nothing...

Hiruma would fucking like to see Raccoon-Eyes' face when nearly two whole football teams worth of people descended on him.

Summary: Hiruma never thought that he was going to ever be a protective 'big brother' to anyone until clueless Sena starts bringing in football aces into the yard!

YOU TOO?

What is the fucking Red doing here?

"NOT FUCKING YOU TOO?" Hiruma growled at Red.

"I don't understand what you mean, Hiruma-sempai." Red drawled with his customary vacuous expression, his mouth slack, his hazel eyes idiotically blank and his red hair was up in a samurai-style ponytail as always. He had come after Deimon had let out to deliver some treats from Mamori to Sena and Hiruma. She had chosen not to go to Oujou and studied in a university near Deimon.

"Don't play with me, fucking Red!" Hiruma glared.

Despite all appearances, Idane Hiroyuki--or Red that Idiot as Hiruma was fond of calling him--had brains. It just didn't show. The blankness hid a genius for movement that made Red the one of the best Hiruma had ever seen at dodging.

If he was after Sena, Mamori just gave him the best fucking excuse in the world to see him...and he has a fucking girlfriend!

"I'm not playing with you. I just don't think that playing errand boy has anything to do with anything."

Fucking King of Dodging...

"You're the best at dodging chores, too." Hiruma fumed. He had never seen Red get saddled with anything the redhead didn't care for without being tricked into it. Even he had a hard time getting Red to do any labor outside of practices. That was what made this damned visit so fucking suspicious.

And I looked forward to the day he'd be here in Oujou so we could trade strategies...fucking Red...had to ruin it...

"Well, it was Mamori-nee. And maybe you should take that back, I wouldn't cheat on Hisae. Though Sena-sempai is a cutie." Red drawled again when it was obvious Hiruma wasn't falling for his damned crap and was readying to shoot at him.

"You better not be two-timing your fucking girlfriend, her brothersâ€”" Hiruma had The Book out and whipped to the right page before Red finished the last sentence.

"Are in the wrestling team at Kyoshin, and in my year too! Oh and speaking of Kyoshin, I just handed a package off the Sena-sempai from Kakei-sempai." Red said, quite innocently and completely unbowed by the implied threat.

He always did pull that look better than fucking Dreads...

It was hard to tell with Red when he was being sarcastic or truly innocent. He had given up looking sincere since sincerity made him look like a door-to-door salesman or so he once told Hiruma over some beer.

"Kakei Shun? What's Raccoon-Eyes think he's doing?" Hiruma forgot himself enough to say that out loud. Red had that effect on him sometimes.

It's the one thing that made me choose this idiot over any other candidate for my damned replacement in the team...but it's fucking annoying now that I remember it...

"Isn't it quite obvious."

Should have known, fucking mischief again...

Red had a damned mean sense of humor, literally. He had a taste for some of the worst practical jokes ever.

"Don't involve yourself on this one, idiot Red. I'll not be so forgiving next time."

"Heh, Sena-sempai wouldn't get it anyway... But I wouldn't really let it get out of hand..." There was a whine under the drawl.

"Tell it to somebody else. And did you see the Swim-Freak near my fucking girlfriend?"

Damned Dynamic Duo is almost always together...if I didn't know that Swim-Freak was completely straight I'd have thought that they were dating...

Mizumachi had been one of the boys to court Mamori and Hiruma wasn't sure that the other blond had given up completely.

"No, sir. I got the package from Hisae's brother." Red said, giving Hiruma a mock salute.

Incorrigible...

But then, Red was nothing but dependable. Hiruma knew that he would not do it again.

But a damned practical joke on Sena's fucking admirers on the other hand... This would require some thought...

Red looked at Hiruma and the blond knew that some of what he was plotting must have been showing on his face.

"Forget it, Red. Just keep in touch." He cackled and shot a few rounds to send the redhead on his way.

Yes, some planning is in fucking order...

Hiruma cackled absently as he munched on the sushi that Mamori had sent over.

All this plotting...maybe I should plan our date as well for this Sunday...this pie is damned good...must thank my fucking girlfriend...even if she did send that nuisance here...

Sena-kun,
I found this on the dressing room floor. Be careful with it the next time or you really might lose it. Kakei Shun

Sena opened the package that Hiro-kun had given him to find his watch, which has been missing since last Saturday.

What's in a Name?

Of all the fucking admirers, Hiruma trusted Kaitani Riku the most and so did Mamori.

"Of course, he knows Sena the longest and he's helped protect him from bullies before." She says…Hah!

That was not a good reason in Hiruma's book and he didn't trust the twerp for that.

"Ne, Riku-nii, this is our clubhouse." Sena said. The shrimp was touring the Twerp all over the school since the other running back had come in to meet him after
Saturday practice to Pretty Boy's disgruntlement.

As Hiruma observed them, the Twerp winced at the "-nii" and Sena was tapping on his arm to get his attention in that casual way brothers did.

Now that's a good reason!
Dating for Dummies, fucking twerp: if you didn't want him to call or treat you like an elder brother, you shouldn't have fucking introduced yourself as one! -1-

Hiruma cackled. There was nothing short of an announcement from the fucking heavens that would make Sena realize that his Riku-nii didn't want to play older brother and mentor figure anymore.

Author's Notes:

-1- In the manga, Riku introduced himself as
Sena's older brother and embarassed Sena. If he wasn't oblivious, I'd say this is deliberate revenge.

Big Brother

"Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean no one is out to get you." –-Unknown

Chemistry Class

"Oooh, isn't he a looker."

"Yeah, and he's running ace of the football team too."

"Oh my heart, Kobayakawa-san is coming this way."

Hiruma ignored the gaggle of girls chattering just outside his classroom door. As a rule, Hiruma didn't much care to meddle in his team's love lives.

Well, as long it doesn't affect their performance on the field or the guy or girl their dating weren't hurting their ass…

Oh~kay, maybe he was a tad protective about his team but then he considered them his friends though he often had strange ways of showing his affection.

Not that Fatty or the Old Guy had ever needed my help in that department or the monkey or those three fucking brothers or Baldy…or even Ishimaru, he finally found a quiet girl to be happily invisible with…

It was only his fucking running back that got him right protective and it wasn't those girls outside that made him bristle. Now it might have been the fact that he was dating Sena's Mamo-nee or just that Sena still walked through the world with football and schoolwork on the brain and not much else.

Or maybe it's that he's got half the football aces in the Kantou region after his ass…and he goes around quite obliviously thinking that they're just being fucking friendly…

Hiruma had even caught Dreads and his brother casing the shrimp. Now, that was easy to tell that egoist to stick it where it'll do the most good. Sena was wary of the Shinryuuji crowd and their school was a good bit distance from Oujou anyway. No, the greatest threat was never those two or even fucking Slick-Head from the Dinosaurs. Clever as Slick-Head was, he had managed to get pass Hiruma to talk to Sena alone on more than one occasion but Sena had an unerring instinct for detecting predators from his days of being bullied and he knew better than to hang out with that sleazebag.

No, the greatest threats are…thinking of the Devil…or devils, as the case…

Hiruma alerted by the shouts of "SAKURABA-KUUUNNNNN" looked up from his laptop to see his two classmates enter the room, Sakuraba Haruto, former teen idol, and current receiver for the Oujou Silver Knights and Shin Seijuro, the best linebacker in all of Kantou.

Sometimes, I wonder what possessed me to enroll in Oujou University in the first place…

The school had made quite an offer and still high with the aftermath of the second Christmas Bowl Deimon had won, Hiruma had accepted. He realized even then that some of the athletic program staff had consulted Takami about recruiting in Deimon. The former captain had predictably told them that if they got him, the rest of the Deimon star players would follow.

I did quite a good job recruiting Red and his lot to replace us if I say so myself…

That he found competent replacements for him, Kurita and Musashi had been no mean feat. That cinched the Christmas Bowl for Deimon for the second year running even without him to lead the team.

I thought going to Oujou was a step up…

In many ways it was, Takami was someone who understood a little of how Hiruma thought. They took turns strategizing over games and the Oujou Silver Knights was decidedly being known as one of the most unpredictable teams around. They had a good line, two receivers, the best-damned linebacker, running back and kicker in Kantou.

What else was there to ask for?

Was it damned too much to ask that one of their receivers not hit on their running back? Oh, the Pretty Boy was fairly subtle about it. He had talked the monkey to going for a snack after every Saturday practice. Of course, Monta had to bring Sena and Shin had to tag along since Sena and Shin were also good friends. Now that's another thing, Shin. If Sakuraba was subtle, the linebacker was a fucking ghost. Hiruma had no evidence whatsoever but he could feel it in his bones that the linebacker was also smitten with Sena.

And the fucking shrimp is all "Let's all be friends" with him and they jog together all the time and my fucking girlfriend just "oohs" at them…

While Mamori was wary of the former idol, she was quite trusting of Shin who in her estimation was just interested in Sena as a rival and friend.

Hah, bloody hah!

He gave Sakuraba and the attendant Shin a suspicious glare in greeting as the former idol greeted him in that soft voice of his.

A pity I can't sabotage their fucking project…since we're on the same team now, it'll only cause them to miss practice…

Still it didn't prevent Hiruma from cackling as he stared at the mess of test tubes in front of the pair since he had Yukimitsu set up their own experiment. Sakuraba's small flinch was worth the fucking professor's disapproving glare.

A few more sessions with me in this class and I'll have them begging for mercy! Ya-ha!

"Shindou, I need to apologize for intruding and embarrassing you in front of Touya-chan." Yashiro said when Touya-chan went with Ichikawa-san to prepare dinner.

"Huh." Hikaru blinked at him as he sipped on his softdrink.

"If I knew that you two were a couple, I wouldn't have suggested this. I bet you would rather be alone, practicing together."

Hikaru choked and sputtered.

"We are not dating!"

Besides Touya-Meijin would kill me if we were alone for even just a night in the house...

Hikaru still had not gotten over his awe at Touya-meijin.

"Sorry, Shindou, but you sound like my grandparents with your bickering."

"We are not DATING! We're Go rivals that's ALL."

"Yes, we're just RIVALS. It's not as if I want such a loud uncouth boy." Touya-chan said as she brought out a tray-full of food.

"Touya-chan! What a thing to say." Ichikawa-san admonished as she brought out a second tray.

"Thank you for the food." Yashiro said hastily and the conversation was derailed to setting up the plates on the low table.

However, the glare Touya-chan gave Hikaru as Yashiro and Ichikawa-san were busy with the heavy soup bowl said that the matter was far from over.

Summary: Sakuraba asks Shin for a favor regarding Sena…

Manly Men

"Why don't you ask him yourself?"
"It would be too embarrassing. Ne, Shin?"
Here they go again…
Takami rolled his eyes. Sakuraba has been fascinated with the Deimon Devil Bats' secretary ever since he had a talk with Kobayakawa Sena at the hospital. When he learned that Shin often met the boy during his training jogs, he decided to pester their friend for details about Sena's likes and dislikes or if Sena was seeing anyone.
This cannot end well…
As much as Sakuraba was Takami's friend and how he wanted it to be otherwise, he was realistic. He knew that there were few men with same sex preferences and that most men took offense at being asked about such things. He understood why Sakuraba was antsy about asking Kobayakawa directly. The other boy has never shown any inclination to his own sex and Takami had seen Kobayakawa with the female Deimon team manager and he seemed pretty close with the bouncy cheerleader. It was likely that Sakuraba was going to be disappointed.
But manly men do their own courting…and take their lumps… And what could Kobayakawa Sena do to him anyway?
The petite secretary looked and behaved nice enough. Takami was almost sure that he would just brush it off with a "let's just be friends" speech and that will be the end of it.
"All right, I'll ask him."
"Thank you very much."
Ah well, that's done…
"Sakuraba, let's try that particular pass again." Takami said, getting off the bench where he was cooling off from a particularly strenuous run.

xxx

"So what did Sena say?" Sakuraba was fairly bouncing in anticipation.
Takami winced.
Here it goes…
"We're going out on a date this Saturday." Shin said in a stunned tone and the look of someone who didn't quite know what had just happened.
"WHAT?"
Oops. But then again…
Takami suppressed a snicker.
Knowing Shin, he'd probably managed to give the wrong impression…

Summary: Riku and Sena decide to tell Mamori and Suzuna about their relationship...

Too Much Information

"Mamori-neesan, Suzuna-chan, me and Riku are together."

"Of course, you're together. I can see that."

Suzuna choked at that.

"Anou, Sena means that we're dating."

Here come Mamori-neesan's protective speech...

That was why they had asked to talk to the two girls early before Saturday afternoon practice. Hopefully, with Suzuna there and with practice afterwards, Mamori would not rant too badly. Riku might have been their childhood friend but Sena had always been Mamori's responsibility.

Besides Hiruma already warned Riku...with two rounds of ammunition even...

"Oh...so it's all right, I don't need to warn you not to hurt Sena, Rikkun. I trust you."

"Eh?"

Riku just smirked as if he'd known all along.

"It's not much of a surprise. Though I didn't think that Sena-kun would have chosen you...but I'm happy for you."

"Suzuna-chan, what do you mean?"

"I always thought that Sena would end up with a guy but I thought it would be like...someone else."

"Someone else? Like who?" It was said so naturally that only Sena and Mamori could see the unnerving sparkle in Riku's eye.

"You-nii, for one, he doted on you! He saved you from bullies and trained you but then he went and asked Mamori-nee so maybe he was just thinking that since you're Mamori-nee's concern, you're his as well...or maybe he was just practicing for when Mamori-nee and him have any kids..."

Mamori turned red and made "ke-ke-ke" sounds while Sena sighed in relief, but it seemed that he had sighed too soon since Suzuna wasn't finished talking.

"Akaba-san, he was staring all through out the game with Band Spiders, but then so was Kid-san during our stay in America..."

"Suzuna-chan..."

"There's also Shin-san of Ojou White Knights, Sena was always going about admiring him and his tackles! It's said that Shin-san never speaks much to anyone but he spoke to him after the game one time..."

"Anou. How did you know that Suzuna-chan?"

"I was there and you didn't notice me--and there was one time when you were lost in the forest and he took off his shirt to rescue you from a bear!"

And there was that time when I told him that Shin-san was the best Amefuto player! Thinking now, he must have been very annoyed then...

"Anou, he had to get his training weights off!" The panicked words was directed to Riku who was narrowing his eyes.

"Interesting."

"But if it's nudity, then there's Kakei-san of the Kyoshin Poseidons. I heard from Monta-kun that they'd been left together in the bathhouse alone at least a couple of times since Mizumachi-san and Monta-kun were horsing around. So really, I never thought he would end up with you, Riku-kun but I'm happy that he found a boyfriend."

Creepy!

The expression on Riku's face was sending tingles down Sena's spine since could now rival that of Hiruma's when he was about to open fire with his machine guns.

"Mamori-neechan..." Sena said weakly, but Mamori had still not recovered from what Suzuna had said earlier so all Sena could do was excuse himself weakly from both of them as Riku stomped off in a quick pace.

Anou...maybe I should call Kakei-san and Shin-san but Shin-san doesn't have a cellphone and he's still training at this hour...and there's Akaba-san...or better yet call Kid-san. He wouldn't want Riku to get into trouble and get banned from Amefuto, but I don't know his number or Akaba-san's.

It occurred to Sena that maybe he could ask Hiruma about this since the quarterback seems to know an unhealthy amount of data from all their opponents but Hiruma was nowhere in sight which was really odd now that you think about it. The blond was usually the first one on the grounds when it came to practice.

Could he have set that up? Suzuna's not that much of a chatterbox, she managed to keep my identity of Eyeshield 21 from Mamori-nee after all... But then she wouldn't have mentioned him at all, if it was so...

Sena just prayed that he could calm Riku down in time for him to get back to practice so that their demonic quarterback didn't draw and quarter him.

***

"Hey, fucking cheerleader, come here a moment." Hiruma ordered Suzuna away from Mamori who was still somewhat traumatized from the conversation earlier.

"Did you say what I told you to say?"

"Yes, went off without a hitch. Rikkun looked kind of funny when he's mad. I feel sorry for Sena-kun."

"Oh, don't worry about it." Hiruma's grin was even more evil than usual.

"I'm not all that much, after all they've been friends for so long it shouldn't take them to kiss and make up. " Suzuna shrugged cheerily and bounced off to wait for the rest of the team.

Hiruma cackled to himself and decided that he'd better kiss his fucking girlfriend or Mamori would not be able to function through practice at all.

Michel never saw anything beyond the People's Army and getting free of Vetti's imperial rule when he took his brother's identity and gender so it wasn't surprising that he didn't see this coming.

The general principle at least, I would have been blind to miss them...

That "them" being a bevy of ladies in heavily decorated gowns which belled out like miniature ships with wake of lace. This was the formal celebration amongst the nobles of the reunification of the galaxy and the close shave with the Black Cross. The nobles had this ball, while the commoners had their earthier celebrations.

"Lord Michel, you're looking well..." One of the ladies in emerald green said.

"Such a stirring speech, my lord!" Another in blue trilled.

"I would be honored past bearing if you would take the next dance with me, my lord." Said a petite lady in white. They all had stars in their eyes but this one also had a determined look on her pretty little face.

Was I ever this...pushy...with Creo?

Michel was never more conscious about his true sex than at that moment. Despite thinking of himself as a him for years now, he never was inclined to the fairer sex.

"Ah, sorry ladies but the Lord Michel has promised to go with me and his other friends to our own private celebration."

Saved!

That did the trick, all the ladies pouted at the excuse but left all the same. Michel sighed in relief and turned to go with Vetti. Of course, Michel wasn't one to think ahead so he didn't expect the next thing to happen either.

"You sure are popular with the ladies Michel. Such a stirring speech...stirred me so well...ooh... I would be honored past bearing if you would take the next dance with me, my lord...in my bedroom." Vetti crooned as soon as they were out of earshot of the party-goers.

It seemed that he had celebrated way too soon.

I never expected that rogue sense of humor to emerge after what Vetti had been through with Creo...but then, there was always that sparkle in Creo's eye now and then...like that time with B.B. wine casks...

And Vetti liked the sound of his cleverness from what Michel observed.

"Your Excellency, it's hardly becoming of an Emperor to insinuate such things." Michel said with impeccable dignity. He would have pulled it off, if not for the blush that colored his cheeks.

He is still evil...well, at least just a little evil... Oh well...

Hey, who did that?

Blue turned into green.

Wasn't me.

Green turned into black.

Wasn't me, either.

Blue turned into gold and blinked sleepily.

What?

Gold turned into blue.

Kuroba, I can't think of any reason why Hakuba would be dreaming of handcuffing and groping himself to the bed in that position...did you Hakuba?

Blue turned into gold and glittered indignantly.

I would thank you, Kaito-kun, to keep myself out of your wet dreams while we are rooming in your head. What you do on your own is your concern.

Gold turned into black, blinking unrepentantly.

Can I help it if I'm a teenager with hormones? Kudo, don't you have any wet dreams about Mouri-chan?

Kaito said, figuring he had nothing more to lose.

Black turned to green, wide with shock.

Oh, god, we didn't need to see that.

Green turns to horrified gold.

I second the motion.

Gold turned into black.

Or Hattori with Tomoya-chan...

Black turned into horrified but amused blue.

Whoa, can you really do that with the human body?

Blue turned into black.

On one of my good days...I'm impressed Hattori. That was better than the time with Aoko and her mop...

Black turned into gold.

Can we stop talking about this subject already.

Gold turned into black, dancing mischievously.

By the way, when you said to keep you out of my wet dreams, do you mean that I can have all the wet dreams about you that I want when you have your own body, Hakubaaaaa-chhhaaaaan?

Black turned into blue.

Hattori and I didn't need to see THAT.

Blue turned into green.

I agree with Kudo.

Green turned into black.

Awww, but Hakubaaaa-chan is sooooo cute when he's blushing...

Eyes flicker from one color to another.

NO, LET'S JUST ALL GO BACK TO SLEEP.

Eyes flickered to black before closing for the night.

Heh, I can't wait for them to get their bodies back. That was some prime blackmail material...

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! The...the concierge!"

Oh no, not again! I'm not going to even look!

Kaito laced on his skis determinedly, ignoring all the fuss around him. His black eye turned to an equally determined blue.

Come on Kuroba, if it's a murder we have to solve it!

Blue turned to irritated gold.

Kudo-kun, we've solved four murders this week. I'm sure the Japanese police is competent enough to handle this one...

Gold turned to pouting blue.

You always take his side...Hattori?

Blue turned to equally irritated green.

Hakuba has a point it's our vacation, damned it. Even when I was in Osaka, I never solved as many murders since we got stuck in here...

Hattori's voice had equal parts tiredness and exasperation. Green turned to incredulous gold.

When you think about it, Hattori-kun, neither did I...fifteen murders in twenty days? And all occuring in our immediate vicinity at any point in time?

Gold turned to blue.

I don't see the problem...

Gold flashed black then green.

Kudo...?

Suddenly, Shinichi could feel the atmosphere seemed to chill a few degrees below even the cold mountain air.

What?

Fwhump.

Ack, they're falling out of the sky now!

Kaito nearly jumped out of his skin as a corpse fell in front of him. Horrified black turned into gold, examining the body of the middle aged woman in ski wear.

Very funny, Kaito-kun, but I believe someone murdered her and put her on the chair lift o hide the fact that she was stabbed.

Gold turned to blue.

In this weather, he must have found a way to induce rigor mortis or the body would have fallen out before this...

Blue turned to green.

Not to mention, gettin' the corpse up into the lift without anyone noticin'. Kudo remind me when we get into our proper bodies to get Kazuha to make you an omamori...

FWHUMP!

Lots of omamori, I think you need to deck him up like a Christmas tree.

Kaito winced as another corpse, this time a middle aged man, lay on the snow.

Ah,well there goes the vacation...

Kaito sighed as the detectives in his head started to fall all over each other to solve the murders, quarrel forgotten for the moment.

Post-Blind Go Thoughts...Possible Teal Deer

Sat, 13 Oct 2007 06:57:47 GMT

First off, there were lots of fics I liked, they were all so much better than mine! I particularly loved corbeaun's"Season of Black Chrysanthemums" and measuringlife's "Gods Among Men" but every story had something I liked about them.I feel so inadequate after reading them all.

I was surprised that most guessers did not guess me right since I made no effort to hide my style, my entry "Ghost of A Memory" seems (at least to me) a rip-off of my style in my HP fic "Hard To Kill" with the addition of some narrative.

Anyway, blind_go is fun and I liked participating this round, thanks to tarigwaemir and silvermuse89 for their hard work. ^^

Though it makes me want to gank the meme that's making rounds at the hikago f-lists: What do you think are the "trademarks" of the fiction that I write? What type of themes or characterization notes or quirks keep on manifesting in my writing? Essentially, what do you think is a stereotypically Me-way of writing fic? Because I certainly thought I was obvious.

Has anyone ever written a Count Cain/Sherlock Holmes crossover? I think that would would be quite an interesting meeting to say the least.
