Author's Note: Well, this is going to be... controversial. Yes, here we have some Luigi x Koopa Troopa Yaoi. I know, it's weird, but oh well. It was actually originally going to be a Luigi x Yoshi story, but Koopa Troopa is more... "compatible" with Luigi in terms of his body shape and stuff. This story is based on my first time playing Super Mario Kart, back when I was, like, 8 or something. I always played as Koopa, and since Luigi is Koopa's major rival in that game, I thought there was something between them... I'm weird like that. I'm still thinking about including a... *ahem*... "socialization" scene between Luigi and Koopa towards the end of the story, if you know what I mean. Anyway, enjoy, and please review. You can even flame me if you want. Just review. And dance with a Zebra.

It was another new day in the Mushroom Kingdom. In a cloudy morning, Luigi got up from the bed feeling a lonely vibe around him. He felt that something was missing, that something seemed off. Mario was still sleeping, dreaming of pasta and ravioli, as usual.

"I think I need to go get some fresh air...", said Luigi. He went out to take a walk around the park of Toad Town, where many Toads were hanging around, enjoying life. Eventually, Luigi started to see many couples of Toads and... female Toads around the park. All the Toads and female Toads flirting with each other made Luigi feel uncomfortable. There was something about it that was somehow making Luigi lose his confidence. Eventually, Luigi spotted Mario with Princess Peach near the fountain.

"Oh hey, Luigi! I'm going with the Princess to the castle. Do you want to come with us, lil' bro.?" Mario asked his younger brother.

"Sorry, bro., but I'm not feeling very well... I need to go home..." Luigi said in a sad tone, which got Mario concerned about his younger brother.

"Are you okay, Luigi?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine... don't worry about me, bro.!" Luigi went home with a somewhat depressed vibe around him. Mario and the Princess watched him walking slowly, looking down, visibly sad. The two of them were deeply concerned with Luigi's current state.

"I hope he gets better... so, let's get going, eh, Princess?", said Mario as they left for the castle.

When Luigi finally got home, he immediately headed for the plumber's room, where the only thing that could fully understand him was found - his diary. It was as though his best friend was the diary, because he could share some of his most dark secrets and situations that no one would fully comprehend. With a good ol' pen in hands, Luigi opened his diary with inspiration and started writing on it:

Saturday, 09:30 PM

Such an awful morning...

Everyone around the Mushroom Kingdom has a love interest in some way, shape or form. Seriously, literally every Toad and female Toad were flirting with each other like there is no tomorrow. Then, to top it all off, I see Mario and the Princess Peach talking with each other near the fountain, the two of them flirtatious as ever. If I see one more couple, I swear I'll have a breakdown.

I just can't take it anymore. I've been looking for a partner since I was a little kid, back when I was slowly finding out my sexual preferences. I've never been successfull at all. When I think someone is my special one, it turns out they are straight or are already in a solid relationship, like what happened with Yoshi. Turns out he really does like that Birdo thing. I just don't know what to do. I just hope people don't start to get suspicious of my sexual orientation...

As Luigi wrote on his diary, Mario arrived home with a happy look on his face. He had been kissed by the Princess on the cheeks, rather than the nose - it meant something! Luigi quickly hid his diary in the secret basement he had included by remodeling the house.

"Hey, Luigi, guess what! The Princess kissed me... on the cheeks!" Mario said excitingly.

"That's nice.", a rather dismissive response by Luigi. The two brothers then noticed a truck outside. It was apparently a truck for moving out. Someone was moving to a house right near the brothers' house. Mario and Luigi rushed outside to see who was moving to the nearby house. However, all that they could see was pieces of furniture. Most of them were patterned after Koopa Shells, and eventually, Luigi spotted none other than Koopa Troopa himself!

"Hey, Mario, look! It's Koopa Troopa!", said Luigi.

"Hello there, Mario and Luigi! How's it goin'?" Koopa asked in a cheerful tone.

"We're doing all right. Hey, what happened to make you move out from the beach?" Mario asked.

"Oh, it was terrible... normally, the waters of the sea surrounding my beach are very tranquil, but yesterday, the most furious wave flooded my seaside house!"

"I'm sorry for you, Koopa..." Luigi replied.

"Now I have to live here in the city, at least temporarily until my house is fixed up." Koopa looked down, with visible sadness on his eyes. The brothers tried to cheer him up.

"Don't worry, Koopa, you'll soon be able to move back to the beach!" Mario said whilst giving him a thumbs up.

"Thanks! Now, if you excuse me, I must set things up in my new house. See ya!" As Koopa made his way to the new house, Princess Daisy walked down the street, spotting Mario and Luigi across from the Toad Shop on the way. The tomboy princess approached the bros.

"Howdy, guys! Hey, Luigi, we need to have a little talk..." said Princess Daisy.

"Oh... sure, I'll just leave you two alone then!", said Mario. He went to see Koopa's new house, leaving Luigi and Daisy alone so that they could have their talk.

"So, Luigi... I've been... I've been thinking of revealing my secret... to everyone..." Princess Daisy murmured to Luigi.

"Revealing... your secret? YOU SAID WHAT NOW?!" Luigi panicked upon hearing that Daisy was about to reveal her "secret" to everyone.

"Calm down, sweetie! It's just that I don't care what everyone thinks of it, you know... I just want to tell everyone once and for all, that I am lesbian..." murmured Daisy once again. She didn't want everyone overhearing it just yet.

"But... no! You can't do that! People will start to get suspicious of MY secret... and I sure as shell ain't revealing it publicly!" Luigi said whilst sweating uncontrollably.

"Look, Luigi, you don't have to be afraid of telling everyone that you're gay! I'm sure everyone will accept you for who you are. Just do it!" said Princess Daisy trying to convince Luigi into revealing his darkest secret.

"No, I won't do it... fine, Daisy, tell everyone that you're lesbian. I'll just deal with the suspicions, just like before you showed up on the Mushroom Kingdom..."

"Grow up, man! You can't hide your secret forever! Eventually, someone will find out!", shouted Daisy. Thankfully, there weren't any Toads that could hear this nearby, much to Luigi's relief.

"Nevermind me, Daisy. I don't want to get in your way. I won't be mad if you reveal your secret to everyone, I promise!" Luigi said whilst smiling at Daisy, getting more calm after the whole shouting and stuff.

"Okay, Luigi... but I still hope you do the same. You'll see how good it feels to let this secret out of your mind..." Daisy was still trying to convince Luigi about revealing his secret.

"Good luck, Daisy..." Daisy walked away, trying to build up courage to tell everyone that she is lesbian. With that, Luigi immediately thought of his diary, wanting to write on it about the recent events and such. As soon as he got home, the pesky plumber went to his secret basement, and started writing:

Saturday, 13:50 PM

Wow... just... wow! Lots of things happening around here. Let me tell you about it, my dear secret diary.

To start off, Koopa Troopa just moved to a new home, right near our Pipe House. We noticed a huge truck, followed by pieces of furniture beind carried around, and eventually Koopa himself greeted us, saying that his previous seaside hut got flooded by a water wave in the beach. Poor Koopa... now he has to live temporarily in the city until he can fix the hut up. Man, it's been ages since we last saw Koopa... he is much taller and... *ahem*... "nicer-looking", if you know what I mean, secret diary! Tee-hee, of course you know, you know all of my secrets... but yeah, I think Koopa has been working out or something. Maybe someday he can trump the King of the Koopas in burliness, ha ha!

But that's not all! Right after that, Princess Daisy approached us from across the street and said she wanted to have a "little talk" with me... yeah, you guessed it, diary, it wasn't good stuff. Anyway, basically, she said she wanted to reveal her secret... in other words, she wants to tell everyone that she is lesbian! Can you believe that? If she does tell everyone, then... I'm done for! It'll make hiding my sexual orientations a lot harder, since I won't have a girl to pretend I have a crush on! I tried to change her mind, but stubborn as Daisy is... she'll just do it anyway! Oh dear, maybe I should think of revealing my secret too... we'll see about that...

Luigi then closed the diary and got out from the secret basement. Right as he got back from the basement, someone knocked on the door. Luigi opened it, and saw Koopa Troopa.

"Hey, Luigi! Sorry for bothering you... but could you please lend me your blender, if you're not using it? I really need it, you know..." Koopa asked Luigi in a humble tone.

"Oh... of course! Come in!", said Luigi whilst heading for the kitchen. Koopa Troopa was waiting in the living room. Luigi peeked through the door and just stared at Koopa for a few minutes. Koopa was there, looking kinda impatient, waiting for the dang blender. Luigi just couldn't stop staring at him. Soon, the plumber started to feel his stomach all fuzzy, something he has never felt before. He started to think of the name "Koopa Troopa" non-stop in his mind. Very weird.

"H-here it is, Koopa..." Luigi finally gave the blender to Koopa. However, something was going on with him. Not only was his stomach fuzzy again, but, when Koopa grabbed the blender, he touched Luigi's finger, which sent chills up his spine. Luigi gulped down, and kept staring at Koopa again.

"Thanks a bunch, Luigi!" Koopa said and left the house, happy with the blender.

"Y-y-you're w-welcome... Koopa..." Luigi said quietly to himself. Those five minutes felt like years to Luigi. He couldn't get the image of Koopa touching his finger and staring at him out of his mind. Luigi was still having goosebumps everytime he thought of that moment.
