  <title>[March 17, 2008] [Detective Conan/Case Closed] Fool’s Errand</title>
  <link>http://ayaia-moon.livejournal.com/4708.html</link>
  <description>&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Title: Fool’s Errand&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Day/Theme: March 17: Paper-thin smile&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Series: Detective Conan/Case Closed&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Character/Pairing: Shinichi/Ran&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Rating: PG/K plus&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;ljcut&quot; text=&quot;Their plan was just crazy enough to work...&quot;&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Shinichi glanced at Heiji, the latter of which nodded nervously. They had parted ways with Haibara a few turns ago, and they had both heard the approaching footsteps. It would be their first confrontation with the enemy upon entering the building that served as their hideout. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;It was over almost before it began; quick work of Heiji’s rendered the man unconscious, and between the two of them, they dragged him into a closet, locking him in. Shinichi glanced at Heiji, and the two shared a small smile. &lt;i&gt;One down&lt;/i&gt;, the grin seemed to say. &lt;i&gt;And who knows how many more to go?&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;It occurred to Shinichi that they had never sat down to discuss a plan. The two were of one mind, though, and both moved on the same instinct that guided their course of action. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;They made quick work of each person they came across, quietly and efficiently knocking them out, sometimes through Heiji’s forceful method, and sometimes through Shinichi’s quieter tranquilizer darts, and then further incapacitating them by locking them into various rooms, or, in one case, tying them up by the use of the stretchy suspenders Shinichi realized he was still wearing out of force of habit, and stowing them away in the shadows, hoping they’d go unseen for a little longer. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Shinichi slowly realized that their plan was a long shot. Stealing into the headquarters of the Black Organization in the dead of night, and quietly taking out its members one by one. There were so many ways it could fail… and yet…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“Kudo?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“Hmm?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“We’re doing good.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“Yeah?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“Yeah. Every person they don’t have is another enemy we won’t have to fight later.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“Yeah.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Shinichi glanced at Heiji, surprised to see a grin on the Osakan detective’s face. Shinichi felt his own lips turn up in his own grin, though his was much more tense; it was probably paper thin, and white besides…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“And we have the upper hand here.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“How do you figure?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“We have the element of surprise, the inside information, a lot of time, and we’re just desperate enough to have a fair run at this.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Shinichi’s smile broadened. “So you’re saying our plan is just crazy enough to work?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Heiji nodded. “Exactly.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Shinichi turned his attention again to their surroundings, taking in any noise that was out of the ordinary. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;“Besides,” Heiji finished, a determined look on his face, “We may have a lot more to lose, but we also have a lot more to gain. And that gives us just the edge we need to kick a little ass.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;Shinichi just nodded in agreement. They may well have been running a fool’s errand…but they sure as hell weren’t going down without a fight.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;-O-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;A U T H O R S&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; N O T E&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;I went all out for St. Patrick’s day today. Green hair dye, green eyeliner, and this repulsive NEON green fishnet…shirt…that I wore under my regular shirt. :D&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;I’m a sucker for green. And a holiday that celebrates the color green? (Everyman’s Christmas is Ayaia’s St. Patrick’s Day, plzthx)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;But Shinichi wasn’t being talkative today. That’s why Heiji was so…insightful. (blinks) But I don’t think it was too terribly OOC. Heiji is a detective, dammit, he’s smart…when he wants to be…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in&quot;&gt;~Ayaia&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

So far they had battled many things. Unicorns, that Ice dragon, the Goblins (okay, Score admitted, that had been kind of fun); Hell they’d even battled the Triad, who were, in all actuality, their own potential selves. And then, when Score had thought they were in for a nice break, after they’d settled the business with the Unicorns, he had to go and start dying. Stupid Destiny. That one was her fault.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;After they’d gotten back from Zarathan (and &lt;i&gt;slept&lt;/i&gt; for a while) Score had begun to hatch a plan. (heh. Hatch. Zarathan. He’d made a punny!) After his visit to his home world, Score had started thinking about little improvements that could be made to the castle of the late Garonath. Electricity, for one, could come in handy, and even Helaine couldn’t turn her nose up at it…could she? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score decided to introduce the plan slowly. He had to do some work, trying to contact Shanara without the ease of Helaine’s Agate to move things along, but through a series of playing ‘telephone’ with Oracle, Score managed a modest portal to Rawn, and a few hours later, with Shanara’s help, he’d returned to Dondar, sporting a few Earthly luxuries. A little battery-operated radio, for one, the ingredients for S’mores, since they were so good at making fires, and, of course, a Game Boy for Pixel.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;He decided to ease his companions into the idea. He knew Pixel would be a shoo-in for his electricity idea, and then it would only be a matter of time before he was introducing other things. Maybe they could start celebrating holidays? Making a calendar of sorts to live by? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Grinning, content that his plan was a good one, Score started thinking about what he could make for dinner. It was his turn anyway, and he could always make something that the other two at least found edible. He knew his S’mores would be a hit (he hoped they would, anyway, since he didn’t know how Helaine felt about chocolate…or marshmallows…or, well, the Graham crackers, for that matter.) but they couldn’t have them for dinner. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;He decided to try his hand at a Waldorf salad. Well, Dondar’s equivalent thereof. He wasn’t using apples, per say, they were more like a kind of berry than anything, but he could change that, easily. But he had no idea of what to use for mayonnaise or walnuts. And what was a proper Waldorf salad without mayonnaise or walnuts? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Deciding to get to that later, Score switched the radio on, frowning at the lack of reception. &lt;i&gt;Well&lt;/i&gt;, he had to reason with himself, &lt;i&gt;it’s not like there are any radio stations to pick up on Dondar, now are there?&lt;/i&gt; How could he have thought otherwise? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Shrugging, he switched to the ‘tape’ function, glad that he’d had the sense to have gotten one. It seemed to be an eighties mix of sorts. He set to changing the mysterious Dondarian fruits into apples, deciding to change some of the smaller ones into raisins, which, he reasoned, were a suitable substitute in case he didn’t find walnuts. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;…I think we’re alone now. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;There doesn’t seem to be anyone around!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;I think we’re alone now!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;The beating of our hearts is the only sound!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score grinned. &lt;i&gt;Tiffany&lt;/i&gt;, he remembered. &lt;i&gt;She was huge in the eighties&lt;/i&gt;. He continued the tedious job of changing the fruit into the ingredients for his Waldorf salad, making sure he didn’t use so much magic that he’d be unable to get through the dinner he’d worked so hard on making. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;…and so we’re running just as fast as we can!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;Holding on to one another’s hands!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;Trying to get away, into the night!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;And then you put your arms&lt;/i&gt; – &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;CRASH! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score jumped, turning around to see Helaine, looking crazed, hacking at his radio, trying to kill the music that continued to feebly sputter from the speakers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Helaine, what are you doing!” Score exclaimed, rushing forward, stopping her from her assault. He knew that it was too late, however. Unless Pixel could fix it. Which Score doubted. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Let me destroy it! It makes demonic sounds that have no doubt befuddled your brain!” Helaine exclaimed, trying to push Score out of the way. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“It’s not befuddling my brain! It’s just technology, Helaine! Music!”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“&lt;i&gt;That&lt;/i&gt; is not music!” Helaine screeched, raising her sword in such fury that Score had the sense to not get in her way or else he’d be sliced in half. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;With Helaine’s devastating blow, the radio had finally had enough, the gears grinding to a halt and the music of Tiffany stopping along with them. It was dead. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score frowned, picking at the pieces. Helaine just looked on the destruction proudly, sheathing her weapon and crouching to Score’s level, where he was hunched over the remains of his previously mint-condition battery-operated stereo, huffing in annoyance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Helaine, this was brand-new! Why’d you have to go all nuts on it?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“I have not gone anywhere, and what do nuts have to do with anything?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“I brought this radio from Earth. It was playing music.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“That horrible sound? That was not music. And besides; how could one fit a musical instrument inside such a small metallic box? Clearly it was witchery, meant to drive the listener insane.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Helaine, did you ever stop to think that Earth music was different than Ordin music?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine looked outraged, as an angry flush kissed her cheeks briefly. Just as she opened her mouth for what Score knew was going to be a well-worded insult, he sighed. It was no use trying fight about it with her. She just didn’t understand.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“You know what? It’s fine. Never mind. Did you by chance know where I could get some walnuts? I’m making an Earth dish called ‘Waldorf salad.’”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine grinned, anger forgotten as realization dawned on her face. “Was that what you meant before? Is this ‘going nuts’ a strange Earth-slang way of asking me to help you with dinner?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score just chuckled, shaking his head. “I guess so, in this case.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine looked delighted at having solved some of Score’s words on her own, even if it wasn’t entirely correct. “I will be most pleased to ‘go nuts,’ as the Earth-beings say. I think I saw some plants by the Unicorn pasture that might be worth looking at.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score nodded, glancing forlornly at the scrap-metal that was the remains of his radio. Maybe he’d try and introduce electricity another day. For now, it seemed he was going nuts with Helaine. Hey. At least he was in good company.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;Tiffany&lt;/i&gt; and her song &lt;i&gt;I Think We’re Alone Now&lt;/i&gt; do not belong to me. I like to use random 80s songs sometimes. I used &lt;i&gt;Bicycle Race&lt;/i&gt; from &lt;i&gt;Queen&lt;/i&gt; in a chapter of my X-men story, Unstable Origins. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;:) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;It’s fun. You should try it sometime. (I know everyone secretly likes 80s music. Admit it.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other news, I have a headache. because of all the caffeine I consumed today.

  <description>Too Lazy to do a cut. Here.

The people in her old village told tales of heavier snow, stronger winds, and longer nights than any other in their memory. She’d fallen ill. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;Rin didn’t recall anything about that first, famous sickness. She didn’t remember any comforting her family might have done, nor any medicine she might have been given. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;Rin did, though, recall another sickness. Another winter. A phantom illness that was really that first sickness come back again, never fully defeated. It was horrendous. Her mother sent her brothers out for medicine, and they returned only with trinkets from the little village. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;Rin remembered the first time &lt;i&gt;she’d&lt;/i&gt; cared for the sick. It wasn’t her own family; they had died that year; fallen to bandits who took them for all they had, little trinkets though the bounty was. She’d remembered the actions of her departed family, and mimicked them. It was all for naught, as the creature she was caring for insisted that he didn’t need her care, nor did he eat human meals.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;Rin mused now how very ironic it was; her Lord – her Sesshomaru who had been so indifferent to the care she gave him – was now the main source of comfort as that sickness reappeared; the same sickness that she didn’t remember getting in the first place that merely faded away, undefeated with time. Unmoved though he seemed to be, her Lord &lt;i&gt;did&lt;/i&gt; care for her. And it was this cold comfort she found she preferred.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;Fin&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt&quot;&gt;Quite fun to do, actually, and hard to limit myself to the set word count.

You have no idea how something so disgustingly slimy can be so pleasant, but it just is — Damn that Score!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;Helaine Votrin was really &lt;i&gt;trying&lt;/i&gt; to watch her sister’s wedding vows. It wasn’t her fault that the idiosyncrasies that were Score’s made-up sayings (he claimed they were ‘homely truths’ on Earth, which she was skeptical about) kept popping into her head. She couldn’t remember the occasion for which he’d used said phrase, but she was certain it hadn’t been appropriate at the time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;Score, though, had never been one for propriety. Why, just now, at dinner, he’d transformed the Guinea fowl into something…else. It looked like the ‘cheeseburgers’ of Earth that he always went on about, but it was somehow different…Her father had been most displeased of course, saying he’d caught that guinea fowl himself…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;She grinned, then, in a lopsided sort of way, reminiscent of the very boy she was thinking about. She &lt;i&gt;did&lt;/i&gt; remember when he’d said that odd phrase. It had been on one of his trips to Earth, insisting upon stocking up on “real food” instead of the perfectly respectable things she herself tracked and took down with her bow. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;Upon reaching one of the local markets which Score had called a ‘gas station’ (it was a place where the ‘cabs’ came to ‘get fuel’ though she hardly understood why a machine needed sustenance like a mule or a donkey.) He came out sporting a ‘five-fingered discount’ (He explained later that he’d stolen it, much to the dismay of Pixel and especially Helaine, who made him go back and leave payment for the workers) on one of his ‘cuisines’ from Earth, called ‘Gummi-worms.’ &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;They were ‘disgustingly slimy’ indeed, and Helaine had demanded to know whether or not the brightly colored things were really worms, and what sort of nutritional value they held, until Score had poked one in her mouth. Helaine had objected until Score encouraged her to eat it, and she had then decided that it was indeed a glorious food, worthy of the title ‘cuisine.’ &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;She had eaten the most out of the little bag, and then had spent the better half of the next five minutes kissing Score, (who didn’t object, as he liked gummi-worms as much as the next person) searching for traces of the wonderful gummi-worm taste in his mouth. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;While Jenna and Pixel fawned over the ‘pizza’ Jenna had never quite gotten over on her first trip to Earth, Score had educated Helaine in the fine foods that were Earth’s candies, far superior to her own world’s equivalent thereof. Helaine had demanded bags of the Gummi worms as well as several others, some fruity, like the worms, and some sweeter ‘chocolates’ that Helaine had had initial misconceptions of, and others still that were veritable symphonies of mysterious tastes on her tongue. (Score called them ‘marshmallows’). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;She had decided that she enjoyed these candies and was quite keen, even now, to go to Earth and get more, though she’d never say anything of the sort to Score. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“What are they doing?” Score muttered into her ear then, talking out of the corner of his mouth. Score, after all, was in the place of honor at the head of the hall, being the king of sorts, and he had no idea what was going on, save the vaguest notion that it seemed like an important ceremony. He didn’t believe it was really a wedding. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Vows,” Helaine muttered back, from her place on his left. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Why are they speaking in pig-latin?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Score, you know very well that pigs don’t speak,” she said in confusion, but Score just waved a hand at her.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Tomato Tomahto.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“What?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Never mind.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Stand up.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“What?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine stepped on his foot as the congregation turned to him, and he stood up in a hurry.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Um, you may kiss the bride?” Helaine subtly shook her head, and Score quickly corrected himself. “Or, uh, do whatever it is you folks do in this sort of occasion.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Lord Votrin smiled, and then took out a bejeweled dagger, throwing it into the ground for all he was worth. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;The gathered group cheered then, and Helaine grinned, throwing her own dagger into the ground, then turning to Score and kissing him lightly.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“What is up with your culture?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Hmm?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Speaking a different language for a wedding ceremony I get. But throwing daggers into the ground?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Don’t you have anything similar in weddings on Earth?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Well, kind of. I think in Jewish weddings they break a cup or something.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Why?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“I dunno.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Take a guess then.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“It makes sense to them to do it so they do?” Score was smiling; teasing her.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“I think it’s tradition,” Helaine answered in mock firmness. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“And kissing the long lost heir of Ordin?” He was definitely teasing now. Probably in want of a fist in his face…or a kiss. Depending on the mood he kept her in.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Oh, that was just me improvising,” Helaine said, deciding to tease him back.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“I could see that.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine’s eyebrows suddenly furrowed. “What did you change your dinner into?” she asked, remembering her father’s insistence that Helaine’s friends not use &lt;i&gt;witchcraft&lt;/i&gt; in his home. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Something that wasn’t guinea fowl.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Something involving pepperoni?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Oh, no, that’s reserved for pizza only.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine smirked. “I &lt;i&gt;tasted&lt;/i&gt; pepperoni,” she insisted, challenging him.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Damn. I’ve been ratted out.” Score smiled, his arms resting comfortably around Helaine’s waist.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Pepperoni is for pizza &lt;i&gt;and&lt;/i&gt; guinea fowl, then?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“You have a problem with that?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“No, I had just hoped you might have gone for something…fruitier.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Like gummi-worms?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“…”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score grinned at Helaine, whose silence had told him all he needed to know. “Unfortunately, Ms. Votrin, I cannot seem to peg gummi-worms in my vast menu of food-changing, because I simply don’t know what they are. And if I don’t know what they are, how can I change something else into a gummi-worm?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Is there anything we can do?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“You just want my lips for your own selfish gummi purposes, is that it?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Exactly.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score just smiled, and pulled Helaine closer. She closed her eyes, expecting another kiss…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“And I’m good with that,” he muttered, pressing something to her mouth…she opened her eyes in shock – it was a gummi-worm! He’d been holding out on her!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score pulled a small bag of gummi-worms from inside his borrowed tunic, grinning at the smile that had appeared on Helaine’s face. “Kissing is like eating gummi-worms,” he said, holding another one out to her. “You don’t know how something so odd can end up making you smile…but it does.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Another of your ‘homely truths’ no doubt,” Helaine said doubtfully, taking the proffered candy nonetheless and poking it into her own mouth. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;“Naw, I just made that one up.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine just extracted another worm from the bag. She held it in front of Score’s lips tauntingly. “But that’s not right,” she argued, poking the worm in his mouth as he looked at her in confusion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;She smiled. “That’s the only phrase that’s been truthful out of the nonsense you always spout.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Score returned the smile. “You just want my lips for your own gummi purposes,” he said again. “But I like gummi-worms. So we’re good.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Helaine just rolled her eyes and pulled his face toward hers, relishing once again in the sweetness that was his kiss. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;And she didn’t think it had anything to do with the gummi-worms.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;OoO End OoO&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;No idea where it came from, really…Needless to say I was eating Gummi worms at the time, and the saying came to me. I think my sister said it to me first; she has this little book full of quotes and such that she adds to and reads aloud from every once in a while…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;And may I say…Holy Freaking Fluff!! I didn’t know I had it in me…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;Oh, and the thing about the Jewish weddings? Totally true. The last part of a Jewish Marriage Cerimony is the bride and groom drinking wine, and then the groom steps on the wine glass to break it. The link is thus: http : / / en . wikipedia . org / wiki / Jewish _ views _ of _ marriage&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; but without the spaces. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;I’ve never witnessed a Jewish wedding. I’d very much like to.

  <title>Intrigue...</title>
  <link>http://ayaia-moon.livejournal.com/3539.html</link>
  <description>I seem to be joining many communities...hmm...curious...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyhoo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m hungry. I think it&apos;s because I&apos;m trying to become a&amp;nbsp;vegetarian. I had a good thing, you know, for my whole &apos;new years resolution&apos; and all, but I work at burger king...well, let&apos;s just say&amp;nbsp;I avoided the burgers, but I forgot that chicken, as in chicken fries, chicken tenders...well, chicken is meat...so&amp;nbsp;I had to start over. I&apos;ve been a vegetarian for 3 days! wo0t!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Working on fanfiction now. I am a member of so many fanfiction&amp;nbsp;communities that I should get to work posting on one of them!! Yay!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~Ayaia&amp;nbsp;</description>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;...no, not really. Trying to sort out issues with my bank while working and buying books for the new school term! yay!&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;...no, not really again. I&apos;m NO multitasker. And I wonder why I have no free time...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;pro: my nine-month review is in February...maybe I&apos;ll get a raise at my job! (yeah right.)&lt;br /&gt;con: my bank is a butthead.&lt;br /&gt;pro: I have a sexy hat.&lt;br /&gt;con: I can&apos;t wear it to work. (Can&apos;t wear it at all &apos;cause I work so much...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;blah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;more work on 30 kisses later...might post later tonight if I have motivation enough to finish my new chapter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yay mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~Ayaia&lt;/p&gt;</description>

It was just the sky. It was a nice day, she supposed. Clouds puffed against a canvas of truest blue.

His gaze was serious. “You don’t get it. In &lt;st1:state&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;New York&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt;, no once cares about all the crap they’re putting into the air. You can’t even see the stars at night. On Dondar, the atmosphere makes the plants and stuff all weird and Technicolor. But here you have this amazing, perfect sky, and you don’t see it.” He turned back to look intently at said sky, and Helaine started to understand. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Even on Pixel’s world, (so he’d said) where there weren’t any towers obscuring the view, the sky was still hazy from the heat of their many, many computers. By comparison, the sky on Ordin was much nicer.

  <title>hunger...and deadness...</title>
  <link>http://ayaia-moon.livejournal.com/1962.html</link>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;aaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggg!&lt;/p&gt;I hate holidays. I have to write 2 papers, draw a picture of my shoes, move, develop my film for my camera, and survive the next week and a half. After that? I have to change jobs, fret about my new house (the rent is higher...*fret fret*) and try and buy Christmas presents for everyone! Who wants a candy cane? I can get them in bulk...and it&apos;s about all I can afford...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Death to job with no money*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we nix the cable, that&apos;s 30 more dollars we don&apos;t have to spend...we can live without television, I&apos;m certain. I can survive on Anime, right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, we won&apos;t go hungry! I have coupons and discounts everywhere! I is smart!&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;will post something other than this...soon...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~Ayaia</description>

  <title>my aching brain</title>
  <link>http://ayaia-moon.livejournal.com/1546.html</link>
  <description>Soooo....yeah. My head hurts. Part of it is I&apos;m in the marching band, and there was a football game yesterday. Part of it is I overslept. Part of it is I didn&apos;t go to bed until 3:00 in the morning. But mainly? My head hurts because of my brother. I blame him.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Writing, drawing, living, breathing -- all of these must be put on hold for thanksgiving/finals/moving day approaching/goodlordIdon&apos;thaveaturkey week. After that, I will be free!!! hahahaa!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~Ayaia</description>
