Excuse me Mr. Bucket, but your shoes have sheep in them. =w=

((Pardon the title, it needs to be long and random if is to be in the "Sparta" series. XD

After Sparta was done, I found myself missing it. o3o

Me, of all people, missing the thing that lingered in the back of my brain many for months like the ghost of a mother-in-law asking if it could live in my basement. XD

So anyway, I'm gonna start this and see where it goes. If it doesn't work, I'll edit it. >_>

Let's get started!))

Kanuki unlocked the door into his apartment, re-locking it behind him, and walking into his living room, casually tossing his fair silver hair to get it out of his eyes as he sat down on the couch.

Everything inside was purple, the walls, the carpet, the furniture, even the TV.

Okami suddenly appeared on the other end of the couch, tails bobbing contently as she watched Kanuki pick up the remote and turn on the TV.

Kanuki looked somewhat lonely, over on his end of the couch, as he watched Flipper rescue little Timmy from the well. (Wait, wrong show. Oh well, you get the idea. XD)

It'd been two weeks since he left L-Fang's place, and since then, he'd been in a state of melancholy, not talking to any of the other bad guys, not even Bether's

He was like Bether when she was lodged deep in her corner. Under a rock. With a band-aid on it.

Okami was about ready to slap him. She was tired of seeing Kanuki sulk over his demented girlfriend.

Bether finished her post, hoping that something would happen as she hungrily eyed the "Detective Conan" tab that was next to her OOB tab, just a click away...

L-Fang walked into her bathroom, to look in the mirror or see if Jazzmin was still using her brush when she saw something black in the sink.

She groaned, then grabbed on it and pulled Nightmare out by the tail.

"Seriously, this isn't funny anymore, I'm going to make you into my living room rug. Stop it with the random avatar referances." Said L-Fang in a bitter tone.

"Well excuse me for trying to brighten up your life miss I can't take a joke." Muttered Nightmare, looking damp. She wrung out her tail then walked out... too cool to use the door, she walked through the wall.

L-Fang walked into her own room, to see Jazzmin sitting on the bed she hardly ever used but still had for some reason.

Jazzmin stared at her, unmoving.

"What?" Said L-Fang. No answer.

L-Fang stepped towards her, sitting on the bed next to her. Jazzmin just stared at her. It was creepy the way she didn't blink.

"What?" L-Fang repeated. No answer, again.

The more L-Fang stared at her, L-Fang realized Jazzmin was looking at her like... like...

Like she was an idiot.

((Lawl. xD))

Okami sighed.

The atmosphere was thick with depression. And cigarette smoke.

Kanuki had a cigarette in his mouth already, without any windows open.

Okami jumped off the couch, and said. "I'm going for a walk."

She walked out th door, closing it behind her.

Maybe she could talk to Jazzmin about this...

Jazzmin jumped off the bed, feeling the sudden erdge for a walk.

"Where are you going?" Asked L-Fang.

"Out." Said Jazzmin bitterly. It seemed L-Fang's mood was rubbing off on her. Jazzmin walked out the door and out of the Dark Forest.

Okami walked on for a while, arriving in the park where they met Tanuki only two weeks ago.

She climbed up on a bench, sitting and staring into the fog, annoyed at anything that dared exist at the moment.

Jazzmin walked to the park too, looking out at the lake.

She looked at the cracked ice where Tanuki had fallen through, though she didn't know how it had gotten that way.

Okami smirked at Jazzmin's arrival.

"You too, huh?" Okami said dryly.

"They're worse than when Bee finished a Warriors book and she had to wait for the next to come out." Muttered Jazzmin.

Bee crossed her arms. That wasn't funny. ((XDDDDD))

((XD))

"Kanuki's doing almost as good a job as Bether. He doesn't even need a corner, the whole friggin' apartment's gloomy." Okami joked, eying her owner with a smirk on her wolfish face.

Bether sighed, used to the sulking jokes that were made about her.

"Anything you wanna do about it?" She said, now more serious.

"Not sure what to even do about it, L-Fang's as oblivious to the hints I've been dropping as Bee is to being smart." Said Jazzmin, half-muttering.

Bee crossed her legs. That wasn't funny either.

Okami sighed.

"Same with Kanuki. They're both morons... No offense." Okami said.

"But for god's sake, he's watching "Flipper", of all bloody things. I don't even think Bether's that stupid."

Bether looked at Bee as if asking her if they needed to "discipline" their characters.

Jazzmin's eye twitched.

"I know he likes water and all, but Flipper?!" Said Jazzmin in disbelief. "L-Fang better not resort to watching Grey's Anatomy or something."

Now Bee was mad.

Nobody dissed her Grey's.

She threw a chicken nugget at the back of Jazzmin's head.

Jazzmin didn't do anything, not wanting to play the stupid person game.

Bether knew what was coming, and she glared at Okami, as if daring her to say it.

"Well, at least he's not watching Ninja Mid--" She didn't finish her sentence, because Bether leapt out of the bushes, and shot Okami with a machine gun, firing rubber duckies at the back of Okami's head.

The look on Okami's face was that of complete annoyance.

"Should we even bother?" She asked, rubber duckies still bouncing off the back of her head with a loud "Squeak".

Jazzmin shook her head. It wasn't worth it.

"I think both our owners need saving." Said Jazzmin. "Soap operas are always after Flipper."

Okami nodded, sending the ducks flying more than they already were.

"What do you think we should do about it?" She asked, noticing that Bether has out of ammo on her first belt.

((BTW, nice av Bee. XD))
