Theme set : Delta
Rating : T
Warnings : Spoilers for some eps if you look closely.
#01 - Air
They usually fought one another and one time, Lirin shouted, “You’re breathing my air, you stupid monkey!”
#02 - Apples
The Sanzo-ikkou was camping out in the forest and Goku had gone off to pick apples only to bump into Lirin and get into a fight.
#03 - Beginning
It was their first kiss and it had been purely by accident; while trying to punch Goku, Lirin lost her balance and fell on top of him, sending them both crashing to the ground.
#04 - Bugs
The demon princess was screaming as a large beetle made its way up the back of her shirt and Goku ran towards her to help.
#05 - Coffee
Goku and Lirin are just sitting on top of a hill, comparing Sanzo and Kougaiji and the redhead says, “Well, nii-chan doesn’t drink coffee like Baldy Sanzo.”
#06 - Dark
It’s dark in the cave and they can’t see anything or find their way out but neither one is willing to admit that they’re sticking together for comfort.
#07 - Despair
It was raining, Sanzo had shouted at him, he had locked himself in his room…and he was wishing that Lirin were there so he wouldn’t feel so low.
#08 - Doors
Remembering what Hakkai had taught him, Goku held open the door for Lirin, much to the redhead’s surprise and delight.
#09 - Drink
There was only one glass of juice left and Goku let Lirin have it, pretending that she had beat him to it fair and square.
#10 - Duty
He fought her because he was supposed to, not because he wanted to.
#11 - Earth
The son of Earth herself was standing in front of her but Seiten Taisen merely looked at Lirin before turning around and leaving.
#12 - End
Lirin was telling Goku about the bedtime stories that Kougaiji used to tell her and the brunet smiled and said, “They all ended up happily ever after, right?”
#13 - Fall
She was tied up and only half-conscious but she could hear Goku’s voice shouting and then she was falling and strong arms caught her and she felt safe enough to completely pass out.
#14 - Fire
“Cool!” Goku said as he watched Lirin show off her newly-learned fire attacks.
#15 - Flexible
They were fighting again and the itan had to admire the way Lirin’s body bent and swayed to avoid his half-hearted attacks.
#16 - Flying
The Kougaiji-tachi was flying away on their dragons and Goku could’ve sworn that he saw Lirin waving goodbye.
#17 - Food
Goku never shared his food unless absolutely necessary and even then, he only did it reluctantly and with a pout, so the entire ikkou was shocked when he happily put aside a meat bun, saying, “I’m gonna give it to Lirin when I see her.”
#18 - Foot
There’s an imprint of a boot in Goku’s cheek from the time when Lirin got jealous because she thought he was looking at the girl at the noodle store and kicked him.
#19 - Grave
The brunet didn’t like the way that Lirin seemed so serious so he began tickling her…and ended up being hit by a laughing redhead.
#20 - Green
Lirin’s eyes are a bright, bright green color that reminds Goku of a lot of things but most of all, they remind him of the mint he tastes on her lips when they kiss.
#21 - Head
Goku’s head was hurting so Lirin reached out and pulled it onto her lap and pretty soon, the pain was gone.
#22 - Hollow
They fell asleep in a small hollow beneath a tree, back to back, each other’s warmth enough to fend against the cold of the night.
#23 - Honor
Kougaiji owes Goku a fight since the itan keeps defeating him and Lirin should hate the brunet for hurting her nii-chan but she can’t help but admire Goku’s sense of honor.
#24 - Hope
“Maybe after everything, we could…you know…keep on hanging out…”
#25 - Light
“You’re not heavy,” the itan insisted as he carried Lirin to the Kougaiji-tachi’s camp, careful not to aggravate her injuries.
#26 - Lost
The redhead wondered where one of the little bells on her hair tie was and she didn’t realize that Goku had actually pocketed it during their last fight.
#27 - Metal
Lirin traced her finger along the cold metal of the golden diadem around Goku’s head and the brunet simply bowed his head to give her better access.
#28 - New
He usually saw Lirin with her hair in a ponytail so it took him a few seconds to realize that the youkai standing in front him with loose flowing red hair was actually the princess with a new hairstyle.
#29 - Old
Lirin’s attack line was always the same but Goku didn’t mind; that way, he was sure that it was the redhead attacking.
#30 - Peace
They always fought because they both found the concept of ‘peace’ completely and utterly boring.
#31 - Poison
Goku writhed in pain, arms around his stomach, and figured that it was a good thing that he had stolen the fried noodles from Lirin earlier that day; that way, she wasn’t the one suffering from food poisoning.
#32 - Pretty
“You’re really pretty,” Goku said, blushing and wishing the ground would just open up and swallow him whole.
#33 - Rain
The cave was a poor shelter from the horrible weather and they had to huddle together for warmth…not that either one really minded.
#34 - Regret
Damn…I should’ve kissed her…
#35 - Roses
She didn’t know how the itan found out about her favorite flower but she was most definitely not complaining.
#36 - Secret
“No way I’m telling you who I like!”
#37 - Snakes
Lirin was on a tree branch, spying on the ikkou and wanting to throw her boot at the serving girl who was flirting with Goku.
#38 - Snow
Goku didn’t really like the snow-it brought back memories from Mt. Gogyou-so Lirin used her fire powers to melt the white stuff.
#39 - Solid
Goku felt solid, strong, and real as he wrapped his arms around her.
#40 - Spring
There were flowers blooming everywhere and the vibrancy and life they represented reminded him of Lirin and her smile.
#41 - Stable
Goku was a wildcard, always keeping her on her toes, and she loved the instability that he made her feel.
#42 - Strange
“Don’t you think that it’s weird that the saru and the youkai brat aren’t fighting that much anymore when they bump into one another?”
#43 - Summer
“Can you not take off your shirt in front of me?”
#44 - Taboo
Lirin doesn’t care that Goku’s neither human nor demon; the only thing that matters is how she feels and she feels like just flipping off the world.
#45 - Ugly
She traces the scars on his back, kisses each one, and says, “Beautiful.”
#46 - War
The moment the fight against Gyokumen Koushou was over, Lirin threw herself into Goku’s arms.
#47 - Water
Goku tried not to look as Lirin’s wet clothes clung to her figure…and failed miserably.
#48 - Welcome
“Welcome home,” she said and stood up to kiss him on the cheek.
#49 - Winter
“It’s cooold,” Lirin says and smiles when Goku puts his arms around her.
#50 - Wood
“You could’ve just put more wood in the fire, you know,” she said but she wasn’t really complaining.
