"Cotton Candy"
Author's note: Where is all the AlbedoxRubedo? Honestly. For such an almost canon pairing, there are barely any fanfics about them! Come on, fangirls and fanboys of this pairing alike, I know you're out there. Write! Anyway. Most of these drabbles are set in an alternate universe where Rubedo made good on his word to drag Albedo's ass back to the Durandal at the end of Episode II. Unless it takes place when they're children, then it takes place in the game's universe, unless otherwise noted. Enjoy!
Oh, and this first drabble was written as a gift for a friend, just as a random FYI.
Drabble 1: Rollin', rollin', rolling…
"Naaaaaanananananana nana Katamari Damashiiiii"
Rubedo stared blankly at the scene before him, wondering if he was still dreaming. Or had too much to drink.
There was his twin, sitting at his TV, playing his gaming console and looking like a little child with a new toy. To add to that, Albedo seemed to have memorized a bit of the song that was playing and was now singing it horribly off-key.
The redhead didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he just walked over and sat down next to him. "What do you think you're doing?"
Albedo looked up at him, pausing the game and grinning. "Your little toys are entertaining far beyond belief. I think I'll be satisfied for a month or two with this little game."
Of course, Rubedo would have none of that. For his Playstation was his and his alone.
"It's mine. Not yours."
"Oh?" asked Albedo, glancing at him amusedly. "Too bad. It's mine now." And he returned to playing.
Rubedo growled. "Stop. Playing. Right now."
"Make me."
He could hear the challenge there. If he wasn't so tired, Rubedo would have thought of a clever, amusing way to take the game away from Albedo. But right now, all he wanted was the Playstation out of his brother's possession. And his brother in his possession, for that matter.
He had barely yanked out the power cord when he felt himself thrown harshly onto his own bed, purple eyes glaring at him.
"You took away my fun."
"Deal with it. If you want to play it, then you can ask. It's mine. Not yours."
"…You took away my fun."
Rubedo really didn't feel like arguing with him. "Shaddup. And go to sleep or something. It's like eleven at night anyway."
But unfortunately for him, Albedo wasn't going to give up so easily. "Fine. If you took away that source of fun, I'm going to have to find some other source of fun. And you don't seem to have any power cords to pull out. So…"
All Rubedo wanted to really do in the first place was go to sleep.
But soon, he found himself in a position quite like the game Albedo was just playing.
Unfortunately for him, Albedo was the katamari.
