Pepper: So, I know this is probably gonna be lame, but I really wanted to try putting the characters in the intro. It just seemed like a fun idea. So prepare for lameness!
Gold: Whatever. Like I can be considered lame.
Silver: Shuddup, loser.
-_-
Pepper: Be nice, please! Do the disclaimer and stuffs! :D
Gold: Pepper don't own Pokemon! If she did, the anime would feature me as the main character because I'm just awesome like that! :D
Silver: And the manga would have lots of Originalshipping and Preciousmetalshipping and Ruby would tell Sapphire that he does remember confessing to her. .
Gold: This story contains yaoi or shounen ai - whichever you wanna call it - so if ya don't like, don't read! :D
Silver: That was lame.
Gold: Not as lame as your face.
Pepper: Guys! D: Anyway, I heard of this brownie system thing where you people give characters and/or me brownies, and I'd keep a tally. You have to give a reason, though, or your brownie doesn't count.
Gold: Yeah, so read and review and give me lots of brownies! :D


"I love you, I promise!"

"I hate you."

"Please, Silver, listen to me! I can explain everything!"

"I don't need you explanation."

"You don't understand; you're making assumptions!"

"Assumptions? I can see, and I know what I saw."

"Please, just let me explain! She –"

"I don't want or need your explanations, Gold!" Silver spun around and stalked into her home on the dimly lit street, slamming the door as he went. Gold moved to follow, his hand outstretched to grasp the knob.

"Cut! Alright guys, that was great! The only problem was that you didn't use the names in the script." Blue called; her hands were on her hips in a displeased gesture. Gold wiped away the tears he'd summoned for the act.

"But Silver doesn't like his name. He says if I ever call him Lucille, he'll shoot me with something dangerous." Gold replied. Blue shook her head irritably.

"Speaking of Lucille; Silver get your butt back in here!" She shouted. The door swung open and Silver stomped back in.

"This is stupid. Why do you need to do this dumb play anyway?" He snapped. Blue was about to reply, but Gold cut her off.

"What I don't understand is why Silver and I are playing the two lovers. We're both guys!" He exclaimed.

"We ran out of girls, and Silver looks girliest of the guys." Blue said, ignoring Silver's question.

"I do not!" Silver snapped.

"There's always Red. He's pretty girly for Green." Yellow grumbled as she walked by. She'd been mad ever since Red left her for Green. Blue shot her a glare.

"For Green, maybe, but he has his pride to uphold in front of strangers." Blue muttered.

"And Silver doesn't!" Yellow shouted from wherever she'd gone.

"Doesn't what?" Gold asked. Apparently he hadn't been paying the least bit of attention.

"I have pride!" Silver insisted.

"What? No you don't." Gold said with an incredulous look in Silver's direction.

"Silver!" Blue exclaimed.

"What!" He answered exasperatedly.

"You made his nose bleed!" She shrieked.

"It's not even that much!" He snapped.

"He's freakin' bleeding! It doesn't matter how badly!" She exclaimed. Silver's reply was cut off as a still-sort've-bleeding Gold grabbed a handful of his hair and yanked down hard. Silver ended on his back while Gold stood over him apathetically with his hands in his pockets. Silver sat up and threw him a venomous look, but Blue intervened before any more fighting could occur.

"Hey, hey! I can't have my main characters beating each other up! I need you to stay pretty." She said moving between them as Silver stood up. The red-head simply continued his You-Will-Die glare, and Gold answered with a spiteful grin. His nose had stopped bleeding, but dried blood was encrusted around the area and over his lips. He didn't seem to notice.

"Blue, I found your kissing scene!" Yellow cried, running up to Blue excitedly.

"Kissing scene…?" Silver hissed through clenched teeth. Blue gave the poor girl a murderous glare.

"Yes. Thank you, Yellow." She growled out. Gold looked panicked.

"I'm not kissing him." Silver said, crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes.

"Look, Silver, it's only –" Blue started.

"I can't have my first kiss with Silver!" Gold interrupted.

"Because I'm a boy?"

"No, because you're Silver!" Gold looked ready to throw a tantrum over it. Yellow looked amused. Blue was snickering into her hands.

"So you'd kiss a boy if it weren't me?" Silver smirked. Gold was having one of his I-Will-Spout-Truth-I-Wouldn't-Normally-Because-I'm-Too-Upset-To-Notice moments.

"I guess so, but you aren't another boy; you're my rival, so I don't want to kiss you!" Gold snapped.

"So you'd kiss a stranger rather than someone you know?" Silver looked annoyed as he said this.

"Well, it'd depend on the person I know and the stranger, I guess –Wait, why do you care! I thought you didn't want to kiss me either!" Gold snapped, moving to stand nose to nose. Or he tried. Even on his toes, his nose only reached Silver's chin. Though, that could be attributed to the fact that Silver had stiffened up and was leaning slightly away.

"I don't. I just find it odd you'd choose a stranger over a friend. Now get you disgusting face away from mine!" The red-head spat. Gold flinched as though he'd been hit or was expecting to be.

"He's just afraid he might kiss you." Yellow teased, her old personality making its rare appearance. Silver shot her an angry look, but she ignored him and rested a hand on Gold's shoulder.

"Let's get you cleaned up." She said gently and led Gold out of the room. Silver glared after them.

"Aw, is little Lucille jealous?" Blue teased.

"Don't call me that." Silver grumbled.

"What? Jealous? Or Lucille?" She grinned ferally.

"Both." He snapped, sitting in a chair to the side.

"I think you are jealous." She teased.

"And I think Green might be onto something when he calls you 'Pesky Woman.'" Silver muttered. Blue feigned a look of hurt.

"I'm not pesky. I'm a genius!" She exclaimed, striking a heroic type pose. Silver gave her an irritated look.

"What are you plotting now?" He asked.

"Oh, nothing…"

"The last time you did something as ridiculous as this play and called yourself a genius, you got Red and Green together, and turned Yellow into a bitch." Silver said.

"The Yellow part was unintentional. And I'm not plotting anything!" She insisted.

"Come off it. Which unlucky couple are planning to mash together?" Silver said. Blue grinned in a conniving manner.

"Oh, you'll see." She said darkly. Silver rolled his eyes.

"Whatever." He said. Blue suddenly returned to normal.

"Go get Gold. You guys need to practice some more. While you do that, I'm going to give Red and Sapphire their lines for the scene after your big fight." She ordered before turning and waltzing off. Silver stood up with a huff and stalked off in the direction of the bathroom. How long does it take to clean away dried blood? He should have been back on his own by now.

Upon reaching the bathroom Silver pushed open the door to find Yellow practically straddling Gold in an attempt to make him hold still so she could clean his face. Every touch of the wet cloth sent pain through the majority of his face. His nose wasn't broken, but it was close; possibly fractured.

"Hey, Yellow. You should take those to Blue. She was going to give them to Red and Sapphire, I think." Silver said, motioning to the abandoned scripts on the counters. He couldn't keep the irritated note out of his voice. Yellow jumped in surprise and Gold let out a pain-filled yelp as her hand bumped against his nose.

"Okay, just let me finish up here." She replied with a wide-eyed stare in Silver's direction. She didn't seem to realize the awkwardness of her position. Gold did, and his face was turning red.

"I'll handle it. Go quick. She'll be annoyed." Silver replied. Yellow stood, gathered the papers, then made to leave, but stopped in the doorway.

"You won't beat him up any more, will you?" She asked with a harsh glare at Silver.

"No! Just go, before Blue has a nervous breakdown because she can't find her scripts!" Silver said, frustrated. Yellow turned around and flounced off, calling for Blue rather loudly. Silver then turned to Gold, who gave him a paranoid look. Silver picked up the cloth Yellow had attempted to use and became further irritated with her when he discovered it was freezing cold.

He walked to one of the nearby sinks and set the faucet to warm. He drained the cloth of the cold water and soaked it anew with warm, then drained it again so it was only damp. He turned back to Gold, who was still giving him a paranoid look from his position on the floor. Silver knelt down in front of him, the cloth in one hand, while the other rested on Gold's shoulder.

"Just try to hold still, okay?" He murmured. Gold nodded once and sucked in a breath, squeezing his eyes shut. He expected Silver to be rough about it, just to spite him, so he didn't expect it when the cloth was ever so gently pressed to his lips and the area just below his nose. It didn't hurt yet, but Silver hadn't gotten to the part he'd actually punched.
