CSOH: Well... um... Er...
Solomon: Just get on with it!
Crowd outside window: GET ON WITH IT!
Random hobo on street corner: yeah... (wheeze) get on with it.
CSOH: I have to wait two to four weeks for the okay from corporate and then wait twenty four more hours unless I have a hair appointment in which case then I need to hand a note to the person sitting next to me at dinner, then wash the dog before then moving all my things up the stairs around the corner and into the next room.
Person (don't actually know them): What if the hair appointment is today?
CSOH: Well you should have been paying attention. You simply not wash the dog, still hand off a note at dinner, and take all your things upstairs around the corner and into the next room.
Person: OH! Okay. (person and CSOH leave room)
Solomon: (sighs) No more Monty Python for that girl...

THE ONLY CHAPTER IN THIS STORY. (maybe...)
Chapter One: Chevalier Hagi and the Meaning of Life
IT TWAS a stormy afternoon at the Omoro. Business was so slow that Kai closed up the place at only three.
"What should we do?" Saya asked as I stared out into the spiraling gray abyss. It wasn't going to be clearing up any time soon.
"I think it's about time we got out some of dad's old movies." I turned to look as Kai started to rummage in a closet. George was often not talked about since it was a reminder of the war.
"Dad's old movies?" Saya wandered over to where Kai was pulling movies out of a beat up box.
"Yeah dad use to love these movies. He always had me and Riku watch them when the weather got this bad. Of course you never got to see them because the weather never got like this the year we all lived here." Kai paused on one movie he pulled out and glanced over at me. An evil grin appeared as he thrust the movie into Saya's hands.
"You need to see this one. It was probably dad's personal favorite." Kai got up and started to brush himself off as Saya came over and pulled me into the other room. After fumbling with putting the movie in and starting up the movie, she came over and set the cover to the film on the table. I looked down at the cover. It had a tombstone on it with the words 'Monty Python and the Meaning of Life'.
"Kai had a terrible sense of humor," I thought as the movie opened up. Kai walked in and told Saya that he was going over to see David and Julia.
"Are you sure you don't want to watch this with us?" Kai grinned as he looked at us both.
"Yeah. It's pretty important for me to go over to their place so I'll see you guys later." Kai left as Saya unpaused the film.
It made absolutely no sense. The opening scene had these elders working at an office only to minutes later turn the building into a 'pirate ship'. The men then continued by launching file cabinets at skyscrapers and destroying everyone inside. Saya found it funny and it was in a way, but it just didn't make sense.
It got better though. It then continued by having a family full to bursting with kids sing a song about... sperm. Saya's face grew molten red as she got more and more embarrassed by the song. It got even more amusing when she scooted across the sofa and I moved over with her.
After getting halfway through the movie, Saya paused the film. She was flustered as she ran from the room and into the bathroom. I leaned back and waited for her to return. The film did have its moments. The sex education scene had to have been one of the funniest moments not because of what happened in the movie, but Saya's glancing over to see how he was taking it. It had been priceless when I had winked at her and her face had filled with color.
"Sorry about that... I kinda needed a minute. This movie is completely inappropriate. I can't imagine dad's interest in this movie. And we have even heard one thing about the meaning of life." Saya sat down and looked over at me.
"I don't know about that. It has its moments." Saya blushed again before leaning against me and starting the movie back up. Saya laughed as a rather obnoxiously large man walked into a restaurant and started vomiting before eating a large quantity of food and exploding.
The people in the movie seemed to have no problem being nude and running a mock throughout the whole thing. Then when a man had his whole leg bit off and a couple men dressed up like a lion were caught and kept coming up with excuses as to why they were there, Saya laughed so hard she had her drink come out her nose slightly. She looked over to see if I had noticed as she tried to clean her nose out secretly.
Finally the film ended and Saya leaned her head back to look at me.
"Hey Hagi?"
"Yes?" Saya smiled.
"I don't think I found out the meaning of life." I smiled back.
"Maybe we should watch the movie again." Saya rolled over and frowned.
"Maybe... What do you think the meaning of life is?" I thought for a minute. The meaning of life... During the war it had been Saya and now...
"Do you think your ready to know?" Saya looked warily at me for a minute.
"Er... Yeah I think I can handle it." I moved forward until her face was only centimeters away.
"Are you sure?" Saya gulped as she started to pant.
"No- I mean yeah- I mean... um..." I pulled back. Saya's face had turned crimson as she lay in front of me. Before Saya could decide, Kai walked in and threw his raincoat on Saya.
"HEY! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?" Saya threw the raincoat back as Kai sat down.
"So how was the movie?" Kai smile widened as Saya turned red and ran to her room. "I'll take that for a 'good choice Kai that was a great choice'." I walked up to where my cello was and began to play as Kai and Saya had dinner and eventually got ready to sleep. The storm howled as I thought back to Saya's question. The meaning of life...
"Hagi..." I turned as Saya walked into the room. She stopped in front of me and waited.
"Is there something you need help with Saya?" Saya shook her head as I put my cello aside. Saya sat down on my lap. "What are doing up at this late hour?"
"I was thinking... You never did tell me what you thought the meaning of life is." I pulled her close as I kissed her.
"Maybe I'll have to make a movie about it." Saya smiled.
"Chevalier Hagi and the Meaning of Life... I think I'll have to watch that one." Saya pulled me int another kiss before I carried her back to her room. Yeah... The meaning of life was definitely Saya still... and it probably always would be.

Some kinda afterward...
So I might make a Solomon/Saya one if this story gets enough in the reviews department...
Solomon: But you already wrote it.
CSOH: (sighs) Really... REALLY... Did you have to tell them that. They would have been blissfully unaware if you haven't told them. I hope your happy.
Solomon: (reading next part) I'm thrilled...
