So we're watching Princess Tutu, (which smokes crack, and the crack is smoking pot, which is on acid) which is about a duck who is a girl who is Princess Tutu, when an anteater starts ballet dancing. We have to put it on pause about then and try to resuscitate our brain... @_@
So The radio gets turned on low, mixing with the sounds of a rare So Cal rain and we mellow for a bit when the DJ starts talking to a guy who Wants To Be a Duck. (because they can float on water.)
*Icka falls over*

Anyway. Inspired by dinner tonight at the Japanese Charcoal Barbecue place, because David can't use chopsticks like a civilized person.



Aoko watched in a sort of morbid fascination as the meat was speared with the pointed stick with a neanderthalic grunt and deposited in the wielder’s mouth with much chewing and obvious satisfaction.

”Well, if it wasn’t dead before,” Aoko wrinkled her nose. “It is now.”

Another piece of meat was stabbed and devoured in the same manner.

”It’s barbaric.” Hakuba grumbled. “Like watching a savage.”

An eyebrow was pointedly raised in Hakuba’s direction, as if to remind him whose fault it was.

”Oh, alright.” Hakuba acquiesced “I’ll go fetch another chopstick to replace the one I displaced.”

Kaito smirked.

Heh! Princess Tutu may be brain-sporking in the beginning, but it's actually very very good as it goes on. One of my favorite animes, it can get real emotionally-tugging and all.

*snicker* Lot of us (my friends and me) did the same thing but mostly for fishballs. Only disadvantage was that the fishballs tended to bounce out of the bowl/plate just as you tried to poke it. ^^;;

I liked Aoko's line the best. "Well, if it wasn't dead before, it is now." XD

Butbut! Stabbing things with chopsticks is FUN! Admittedly, it looks very barbaric, but it's so fuuuuuuuuuun...^^;;;;

And how exactly was the other chopstick displaced, hrrrrrm? :giggles:

Hmmm. That sounds like my Truck Gene Boys' school of chopstick use. Which is fine, I suppose for the big pieces of meat but what in the world do you do with the rice?

**snerk** I like this one; sounds like Neanderthal Japanese, sitting around their firepit before somebody came up with the bright idea of using *TWO* sticks instead of one.

Should I mention that I've considered a hollow chopstick to use as a miso-slurping straw to be a good idea, or would that be REALLY barbaric?

This is in response to the pic (the one with Akako about to blow her top) that you asked for a fic for. It's a "pic-fic." Enjoy!


"Kaito..." The ominous growl came from behind. Kaito turned around and grinned.

"Hey there, Akako! Hakuba and Aoko were just telling me about this really cool movie..." He trailed off, peering at Akako with concern. "Akako, are you feeling okay? I could almost swear that you're glowing."

She was glowing. Angry red tendrils rose from her skin, and her hair was beginning to whip about her face.

"I am feeling fine. YOU are not. Or shouldn't be," she added thoughtfully.

"What are you talking about?" Kaito was bewildered now.

Akako pointed at Aoko. "SHE likes you." The finger swung to point at Hakuba. "HE likes you." She flung up her hands. "At the very least you should be agonizing over which to choose. But instead you're happily oblivious!"

"Of course they like me, they're my friends." Kaito leaned over and put a hand on her forehead. "Akako, are you sure you shouldn't go to the nurse?"

She snatched the hand off indignantly. "No, you idiot! They LIKE YOU like you!"

Aoko blushed bright red. Hakuba buried his face in his hands and groaned.

Kaito frowned. "LIKE ME like me?"

Akako leaned forward. "They WANT you," she whispered in his ear.

Enlightenment dawned. "Ooooh. The LIKE ME."

Akako nodded solemnly. Aoko whimpered.

Kaito beamed. "Well, that's okay, 'cause I like them too."

I forgot to sign the fic. The above ficlet is mine; I wrote it. You're free to post it if you want, though.

Ohhh, that was LOVELY!!! **howls** .....and about 10 seconds later, Kaito should be running for his life from all three of them.

--well, either that or they work out a Aoko-gets-Mondays,-Tuesdays-and-Wednesdays, Hakuba-gets-Tuesdays,-Thursdays-and-Saturdays and Kaito-rests-on-Sundays compromise. **evil grin**

That is absolutely excellent! Why don't you go post it up yourself? You do deserve the credit. This is simply brilliant!

*giggles* I like Ysa's idea...*snerks*

Thanks to everyone for all the nice comments! I don't have an LJ (yet), but I did post this on fanfiction.net under the user name "summercloud." Look forward to more MK ficlets in the future!

"Princess Tutu Eats Brains" is how I usually describe it. I'm almost done watching it now! It kinda sucks you in, like to a dream world. Also, I'm facinated at how they take all of those fairy tale themes from Tchowsky[SP???]'s Ballets and weave them together into a story that just works! Every little detail has meaning, everything fits in.. it's like..who.. brain just got eaten by a duck in a tutu...

Plus, ya gots to love the Pant-less Mute.

Mute disturbs me on so many levels.
but the fact that he keeps falling into 'girl's roles' is amusing. *snickers*

Showed everyone who came over last night the anteater dancing with them.
Nearly broke their brains. Much fun. ^__^

What I've got to wonder is...what's the big deal if Ahiru IS a duck? It's not like half the population of the town isn't one animal or another. Otherwise love the series into itty bitty bits.

I love Neko-sensei! All of the cat-like things he does everytime a girl rejects his marriage proposal!! In the episode last night he ran headfirst into a paper-bag on the floor and ran along half inside it till he broke out the other end XD

Mute is sure an odd one.. He changes a LOT as he gets back peices of his heart and stuff. But he's still majorly girly somehow XD
