Wai and Wherefore
Version 1


Xelloss: Ne, Gourry! I'm bored! *suddenly flings himself into Gourry's arms*

Zel: *snide* No tricks to play for once?

X: *proceeds to ignore Zel, pulls at Gourry's armor straps so that they're face to face, he opens his eyes to great effect, a very hungry look*

Gourry: *intimidated* Eh, bored? What do you want me to do about, Xelloss?

X: You could - *gasps dramatically* - take me right here, right now! *pulls harder on said straps*

Gou: Take you - ???

X: I'm all yours!

Gou: *gulps hard and nervously* Uh, okay. But where?

X: *facefaults*

Zel: *puts down his coffee, sighin* Nope, no tricks except in the euphemistic sense ...

Xelloss: *reaching up to shake again* Gourry!!

Zel: *casually fireballs, but X avoids and Gourry unfortunately gets caught in the flames*

X: Waaah! I want a big blond seme!!

Zel: Oy, what's so special about taking a blond?

X: All the blonds I know are very powerful, very sexy people. So to speak. "People" is a term not well-suited to Lei Magnus-sama or LoN-sama ...

Zel: You know them? *amazed, because they are figures of legend, after all*

X: *winks* "Know," in the Biblical sense!

Zel: Hah? Is that anything like a Clair-Bible?

Gou: *recovering, still burnt* Hey, I know what that means ...

Zel: You do? The Biblical-whatsit, really?

X: Somehow I doubt that.

Gou: "Know," as in "have sex with."

X: *genuinely surprised* Well, I'll be damned.

Zel: *snide again* It won't be the first time.

X: But he has got it! Although, it's puzzling. The Bible doesn't exist in Ruby Eye-sama's world...

Zel: *quirks an eyebrow* So how do you know about it, Xelloss?

X: *ignoring him, wheedling* Ne, Gourry - !! *dusts him off, cuddles him again* Let's get to know each other!

Zel: Again with the Bible.

X: It's only fair, after all. We're both after the same girl.

Gou: SAME GIRL??

Zel: He means Lina, stupid.

X: And so it makes sense, doesn't it, that we battle to see who can best satisfy her?

Zel: By satisfying each other - ?

Gou: Lina - ??

Zel: This is truly twisted. *noting Gourry's expression* He looks like he's about to gag.

Gou: *sweating* Lina's too young! I won't allow it!

X: Oh, what's a little statuatory rape between true loves? *correcting himself* IF you're true loves, that is ...

Gou: Well, I gotta admit that Lina's old enough to get married ...

X: *smug* See?

Gou: But aren't you a bit old for her?

Zel: *chuckling* Vastly old. At least a thousand years - !! *chortles into his cup*

X: Please, leave me alone. In any case, right now it's Gourry that I want. Not Lina.

Zel: Xelloss, I have a question for you. Why are you acting like such a - *with his hand, a wandering gesture as if looking for a word ... *

X: *suggestively* Bite me.

Zel: I mean, what is it? Are you in heat or something?

X: *very coolly* You say that like you're NOT a closet hentai ...

Zel: *choking* Giku - !

X: ... which I KNOW you to be.

Zel: *blushing* Well, you're the one who likes it in the closet!!

Gou: *puzzled at the implications of this exchange* Eh?

X: I can embarrass you, too!

Zel: Just remember you're doing it first by going all flirty all of a sudden!

X: A little flirting doesn't mean anything.

Zel: But you don't have any shame!

X: *matter-of-factly* Of course not.

Zel: Gourry doesn't even like other men, haven't you seen episode #17 of the first season? "Question! Ano ko ni PROPOSE?" aka "Question! He's Proposing to That Girl?"?

X: You're not going to get the edge in this conversation just because you can break the Ibsen's Fourth Wall like that.

Gou: *wide-eyed* Oy, who said I don't like guys?

(Xelloss and Zelgadis pause together as if they feel like they misheard something ...)

{(Simulatenously) Zel: Say what? ; X: What did you say?}

Gou: I never said I don't like guys.
