"What. The. Fuck. Is. This?"

"My new shoes! Aren't they pretty?"

Imaginary flowers and hearts and rainbows were being emitted by Mashiro as she ran around, showing off her new shoes. They weren't exactly shoes, rather slippers and with her every step there was this annoying sound which couldn't be defined by any normal, existing sound effect (it totally deserved the creation of the new non-word). If it were to be compared to something, then it'd have been the completely icky sound that a frog makes when it jumps in a swamp.

He was that bad, Kensei randomly thought as he watched that idiot jump around, dancing with a dumb smile on her lips, and listened to that blasted sound, a vein popping out on his forehead. He was that bad if he was beginning to find analogies and metaphours and all those stupid things Shinji loved.

Suddenly there was a big mop of green hair, brownish eyes and that damnable mouth that had formed a '3' in front of his vision and then Mashiro was talking in his face.

"Don't you like them? Hey, Kensei-i!"

Gathering the last bits of his long shattered calmness, he tried to say it in a normal voice but it came out as a snarl, "Of course, I don't like them, idiot! With them on, you're more annoying than usual!"

"Aww, grumpy Kensei. You're so-oo not fun," she whined like the whiny annoyer she was and jumped off him, the same stupid sound echoing through their home. With a start, Kensei realized that she'd wrapped her legs around his waist in order to be tall enough to reach his face.

Refusing to blush from anger, he turned his attention to the annoyance incarnate, who was now skipping toward him with something in her devilish hands.

"Too bad, you don't like it, because, I've bought you shoes too," she giggled and jumped at him, the object in her hands appearing to be a pair of lime green shoes, "They're your size, don't worry!"

She grinned like crazy as she landed on his leg (Kensei was so starting to train to be faster; however he was frickin' happy he was able to stand only on one leg – to be on the ground, Mashiro on top wasn't a very good idea). Quickly, with trained movements, she took off one of his shoes and tossed it aside, outing the green thing in its place.

Kensei let out a cry, which with all his dignity, he deemed girly and started jumping around, hoping that Mashiro would loosen her grip and fall down, but the frickin' girl had a damn strong grip – she was adjusting the shoe just as he passed by Lisa, who in turn, calmly turned the page of her manga, offering no help. He cursed inwardly and continued on, wishing to just throw the idiot into some wall.

Happy that her calm was here again, the glasses-girl smiled contently to herself and turned yet another page. Those two had a foreplay… quite interesting, to say the least.

Shinji flied by, followed by an angry Hiyori. Lisa sighed: love was in the air.
