Drabbles feat. various NEWS members. And Nino's in one too.
I've torn myself away from the Olympics and RL! Hazzah!
1. Massu attempts to teach Koyama how to cook.
"Oh my god, don't touch th--"
Massu can only shut his eyes to shield himself from the horror that was Koyama destroying his kitchen. Closing his eyes didn't block out the thunderous clangs of things (his precious kitchen supplies) dropping, a yelp of surprise and then, "HELL, I THINK I JUST BURNED MY HAND!"
Generally speaking, Massu is a very patient man. He's so patient he could even take charge of the horde of monsterous, screaming banshees known as preschoolers and go home at the end of the day with a smile on his face, completely unscathed. Unfortunately, Koyama was really trying his patience, much in the way a large fly would zip about in your room, crashing idiotically into your window to get out, and you really just want to put it out of its misery but you can't because every time you get near it, it seems to know your intent and takes flight.
"Wah! My hand!"
Taking a deep, shaky breath, Massu mentally counts to ten.
"This really hurts!"
Peeking under his eyelids, Massu surveys the damage in one glance and then pinches the bridge of his nose. He counts backwards.
"Massu!"
When he finally looks at him, looks at Koyama cradling his flaming hand, his face contorted in in a pitiful expression, Massu feels the frustration melt away.
"First aid kit is under the sink," Massu sighs to himself, marching over to the sink because he's no longer thinking about the kitchen and the spilled soup, and the ladle on the floor. All he knows is that there's a boy in his kitchen who scald his hand in his attempts to learn to cook for his nephew. If Massu looks past the fact that it'll take hours for him to clean the kitchen, and that his cooking supplies have taken great abuse from an amature, it was kind of endearing.

2. Chief Inspector Yamashita thinks Wagahai is good for Inspector Nishikido [AU].
To Inspector Nishikido,
One step too slow.
What a pity--try again next week.
~Wagahai
Chief Inspector Yamashita smiles a wary grin and shakes his head as he watches Nishikido angrily ball the note left by the mysterious Wagahai in the safe of Hotel Ohkura, Tokyo and then pitch it into the trash with a scowl on his face.
He just knows that Nishikido is going to fish it out later when he thinks no one is looking and then study it for hours, trying to figure some clue left in the note from his phantom thief. Yamashita sometimes thinks that Nishikido will spend the rest of his life chasing Wagahai, because the thief does not leave anything behind, only a note to Inspector Nishikido with a cat insignia printed on the lower right hand corner, teasing him.
"He's like an invisible cat burglar," Yamashita chuckles, his eyes sparkling with mirth. Nishikido glares at his boss. "I'll stop now."
"It's not funny."
"I know," Yamashita agrees. "It's like Taguchi's jokes. But you know, I'm kind of glad you haven't caught Wagahai yet."
"He's wasting government funds when we send in teams to stop him."
"But I haven't seen you this worked up in years," Yamashita points out. "It's nice to see that your passion hasn't died."
"I want him behind bars." Nishikido tells him. And then as an after thought, he adds, "In a maximum security prison."
Yamashita laughs and invites Nishikido to go for a drink with him.

3. After the Pacifc Tokyo Dome concert, Nino plays 'are you nervous' with Ryo.
"Hey, Ryo-chan, want to play a game?" Nino asks, bouncing on the dressing room sofa next to him.
"It's called: Are You Nervous."
Ryo's skeptical. "How do you play?"
The other man smiles, and Ryo feels a shiver running up and down his spine. "I'll show you," Nino says and rests his hand on Ryo's knee, as if caressing him giving him an innocent leer. "Are you nervous yet?"
Ryo looks at Nino's hand resting on his knee and scoffs, "Please."
Nino moves his hand a little higher until he reaches mid-thigh. "Are you nervous yet?"
Ryo's eyes watch the hand on his thigh, his brow twitching slightly. He steels his face as he looks Nino in the eye, determined to not give in. "No," he clips.
Smirking, Nino moves his hand higher again, splaying his fingers on the inside of Ryo's thigh right near a rather sensitive region. "So, are you nervous yet?"
It gives Nino an immense feeling of happy sadism when he feels Ryo tense. Ryo's voice is definitely higher than before when he squeaks, "No!"
"Well," Nino's hand moves to hover over Ryo's privates, and he grins a Cheshire smile, not stopping just yet. "Are you--"
Ryo shrieks (like a girl, Nino adds) as he scrambles wildly away from Nino, and hides behind Yamapi who's laughing just as hard as the game master.
"What the hell?"
Nino's cackling, "You wanted to play!"
-follow up-
"I'm not going to touch your crotch!"
"But why not?" Ryo whines.
"Because it makes me nervous!"
"But I can't lose again! Come on, help me out! We're like brothers!"
"Find yourself a girlfriend, Idiot!"

4. Massu thinks Shige is like a duck.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Bam bam, da dum."
And Shige crashes onto the floor when he tripped over his feet during the turn. Massu pauses and stares.
"Are you okay?"
Shige winces, rubbing his knee. "Yeah. Can we do that again, but slower?"
"Sure," Massu says, helping Shige up as they face the mirror once again. Massu catches Shige's eye in the mirror and nods. "Five, six, seven, eight; and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight."
Shige flails for a moment before crumpling into an ungraceful heap, groaning painfully.
"Why can't they just cheorograph something easier?" Shige moans, "Like flailing. I can flail okay."
Resting his hand on his waist, Massu looks at Shige thoughtfully.
"You're like a duck."
"What?" Shige exclaims incredulously. "How?"
"Because ducks flail in water when they first get in," Massu explains, chuckling his odd radio laugh.
Hesitantly, Shige nods because he doesn't really get it. "Right."
"Also, you can't turn very fast on your feet."
"Thanks," Shige snips, hoping Massu detected the sarcasm in his tone.
"Practice, practice, practice," Massu says before turning back to the mirror, grinning at Shige's reflection. "Let's try again."

5. Koyama, Yamapi, and Shige watches the Pacific Tour pilot DVD.
"I wonder," Koyama begins as he, Yamapi, and Shige watches the pilot DVD for their Pacific Concert Tour, taking note of whether they want to request for particular parts to be moved or cut out. "Do you think it's odd that we're comfortable enough to bring a camera into the hot springs with us?"
"The fact that we seem like exhibitionists?" Shige asks, "Of course not. I'm ready to take all my clothes off."
"Oh, there you go," Yamapi say, pointing at the screen where Shige's unbottoning his costume. "Taking your clothes off."
"I still completely blame you," Shige moans, burying his head in his hand.
"He's now unfit for marriage, having exposed himself like that," Koyama snickers, elbowing Yamapi. "What're you going to do to remedy it?"
"It's okay. I'll take full responsibility for it," Yamapi promises good naturedly.

6. Ryo contemplates Tegoshi's ability to manipulate people.
Ryo watches as Tegoshi bounces up to Shige, his eyes bright and sparkling as he delivers a grin just as wide. He thinks Shige looks stunned, but then Tegoshi has that effect on people.
"Shige, do my hair?"
Shige makes a show of grumbling in annoyance, but he's really doing it to hide his smile. "Okay, sit down."
"Shige's the best," Tegoshi chirps, before he waves down Koyama. "Kei-chan! Can you get me something to drink? I'm feeling a little thirsty."
Koyama drops the costume he's trying to mend and heads towards the door. "Sure! Do you want peach or mango?"
"Peach! Thanks, Kei-chan!"
Ryo doesn't understand. It makes no sense how Tegoshi gets people to just do things for him. Well, it makes sense a little bit because Shige and Koyama are pushovers sometimes, but to so blindly obey Tegoshi's every whim? It makes no sense.
"Massu! Is that the new Calbee snack?"
"Yeah; do you want to try it?"
"Yes! Oh, Yamapi, are you done with that magzine?"
Ryo could see that Yamapi is clearly in the middle of reading an article.
"Oh, yeah. You want it?"
"Thank you!"
He doesn't know what forces of the universe is responsible for giving Tegoshi such power of persuasion. At the very least, Ryo feels assured that Tegoshi's mysterious powers didn't affect him.
"Ryo-tan! Do you mind if I warm up?"
"Oh, sure. Go ahead, Tego-nyan."
