Zelgadis finds himself manacled and without his cape and shirt in a poorly-lit basement. A quick glance at his feet, and he sees that his shoes are gone, too. Not only that, but the legs of his trousers indicate that they must have at least been torn off. He tests his bonds, straining for a few tense moments, but finds he's unable to pull the chains from the cement. He relaxes, leaning against the wall...
Zelgadis: Damn. Don't tell me I'm in another self-insertion fan-fic. I can just imagine the sort of commentary going about me being shirtless.
He looks up balefully at a bare light bulb, the only source of light.
Zel: The author doesn't care to comment? Fine. scowls with fearsome resolve Do your worst.
Gourry: Oy, Zelgadis! What're you doing here?
Zel: surprised Gourry? What are YOU doing here? ... And what are you wearing...?
BTW, Gourry is decked out all in leather - jacket, boots, and pants laced up at the sides (sorry, not the kind with his ass hanging out). He's also sporting some hardware as jewelry accessories. He's also carrying a picnic basket.
Gourry: Hmm, I was wondering that, too. I've never worn stuff like this before. All of it's kinda too tight for me. Hey, but check this out... lifts the lid of the picnic basket. It's full of lemons. Strange, eh?
Zel: O_O; thinks BAD SIGN! NONONO!!!
Gourry: Oh, yeah! reaches behind his back And I didn't forget this!
Zel: What...?
Gourry unsheathes the Sword of Light, it flares most impressively.
Zel: speaking under his breath, barely audible Without a doubt, a yaoi fan-fic with Gourry. That damned writer must know what the Sword of Light can do to my body...
Gourry: Na, Zel? Just what can it do?
Zel is having awful visions of an S&M Gourry wielding the Sword of Light in ways that he wishes he wasn't thinking of. To his great embarrassment, he's finding himself aroused. He can feel his blue stone skin blushing.
Zel: thinks Maybe I can get him to do this... or that..?
Gourry: interrupting his thoughts BTW, Zel, where're the other seventeen?
Zel: Seventeen?
Gourry: The Sword of Light is supposed to be the 18th sword. I was just wondering where the others are supposed to be.
Zel: 18th sword?
Gourry: Yup. The 18th sword. (18-ken)
Zel: ......
Realization dawns
Zel: You mean "18-kin", don't you?
1. In Japan, the movie ratings systems is almost the same as here in America. NC-17 is the equivalent of 18-kin, off by a year. And you know what sort of movies get that rating. ^_-
2. Yeah, I know it's a bad pun, but how can I help but explain it unless I can be sure that everyone knows what 18-kin means?
Jya, Nangke ^_^
