Maaaaal, I wanna write Our Love Child but I can't think of where to start. BRAINSTORM WITH ME. DO IT.
And have this, which I wrote on a whim and I have no idea if I like it or not, but it's a conversation between Hideo and Joshua (Tsuzuki and Hisoka, and tell me if you like the names) about fish. Or something. It was seriously just random.
"So," I said, grabbing a muffin off the tin and breaking a piece off. "I was thinking that maybe we should check out the aquarium tomorrow."
"I don't like fish," Joshua replied without looking up from his keyboard, where he was somehow typing out a paragraph for his World History paper and still listening to me. I have no idea how he was able to do it and had called him out on just writing down nonsense words the first time I saw him do it, but over the past couple of months I had witnessed him writing entire five-page long essays during the span of a conversation without once actually breaking pace to concentrate. It was enough to make you hate the kid, but I manfully resisted.
I made a face at him, despite the fact that he obviously couldn't see me. "You don't like fish? How do you not like fish? They're FISH."
"They taste gross," he explained.
"I'm not asking you to eat fish. Just go with me to look at them and pretend to be super impressed with how their natural habitat looks and shit," I protested. "You know, stand there and read the little descriptions of sharks and trout or whatever."
"I always kind of thought that people who went to places just to pretend to look smart were pompous asses," he said pointedly, and seriously, why did I like this kid?
"Well, I always kind of thought that people who avoided unfamiliar situations just because they were elitist snobs were kind of retarded," I countered.
He paused in his typing, and for the first time that conversation, he looked at me, with this weird expression on his face, like he couldn't quite comprehend me throwing his words back in his face. There was a moment of awkward silence between us, which totally could have gone sour if I hadn't shattered it by grinning and saying, "So, you should come to the aquarium, lame-ass."
Joshua started, "But--"
"Do it."
"Look, I was just saying--"
"No, I won that conversation, you lost," I said, taking glee in rendering He Who Was Too Smart For His Own Good speechless. "Therefore, I get to decide, and you're coming to look at fish with me tomorrow. I'll even pay for your ticket."
"...are you forcing me to go on a date with you?"
"If that's what it takes, loser, then yeah, I totally am."
*first person, weird right? I don't know if I like it or not
*for realz, what do you think about the names?
*WHAT ABOUT MURAKI'S NAME?
Seriously though make me write something that isn't SPN/Animorphs, I know you want to.
