A/N: Wahhhh~ I'm sorry~ I've had this chapter done, but I've been sick so I haven't felt like typing it. ;-; I'm still a bit ill, but I got over myself and decided to work! :D
Psychology lesson included in this chapter! Awesome, but totally unrelated to the story. Don't worry! We'll start getting somewhere! I had this totally awesome dream last night, and now I know EXACTLY how Miku is going to go. :D Ohohohohoho. I'm sure no one really wants to know that I already know the ending. ;-;
Anyway, plz enjoy this latest chapter, R&R, and tell meh how I can improve! :D
DISCLAIMERS: I do not own Vocaloid, UTAU or Yamaha. But I'm saving up for the software. ;P
I do now own Oedipus Rex, but it is a classic that everybody should read.
"Bam," Rin's eyebrows furrowed, then she looked at her hand in surprise. As if to toss away any bad thoughts, the blonde shook her head a bit and stood slowly from her crouching position. Walking across the plush, white carpet, she made her way to the wall closet.
Placing her hand on the side of the door, she slid it carefully out of her way. Moving hangers out of her field of vision, Rin started to think about her previous actions: What would happen if Miku were to disappear? Obviously someone would notice sooner or later, but if executed well... Rin quickly shook her head again, reassuring herself that she did not want anything bad to happen. In fact, she would feel worse now if something did happen to Miku, since Rin had be thinking such devious thoughts. Berating herself, Rin selected a white turtle neck to layer with a purple polka dotted tunic and black leggings.
The blonde changed quickly, knowing her twin would become upset if she stalled much longer than she already had. Glimpsing in the long mirror mounted against the wall, Rin pulled out some white bobby pins from a drawer to pull her bangs up.
"There," she smiled, approving of her look, and exited the room promptly. Len looks up at her from his couch seat, looking a bit shocked.
"What?" Rin asked the boy, grabbing her small handbag from the back of a kitchen chair.
"N-nothing. That was just really fast," the boy replied.
"Well I wouldn't want to keep you from your date, now would I?" she teased. Her brother's face flushed a light pink as he sputtered,
"No, n-n-no! It's n-n-not like that!" Rin smiled slightly as she turned away from her flustered twin. He is so cutewhen he's embarassed! she thought giggling.
"C'mon, before "Ohime-sama" wants to have us beheaded for being late," the blonde joked.
Len nodded slowly, amused a little nervous to face Miku again. Even though he could see Meiko as more of the violent figure, Miku could change her attitude in minutes. Rin grabbed his hand and pulled him up. Leading him out of the house, they walked down to the white fence where the twin-tailed girl was patiently waiting. Without even looking up from her copy of "Oedipus Rex", Miku followed the twins as the exited from their side of the fence and turned up the sidewalk. After walking a block in silence, Miku suddenly spoke.
"Have you two heard of the 'Oedipus Complex'?" The twins shook their heads simultaneously. "Well!" It's based off of this book," she started, pointing towards the book in her hand, "because the king's name is Oedipus. After a very strange twist of events, Oedipus ends up marrying his own mother. And they have two children," she added, looking for a reaction from the twins. Both furrowed their brows in a confused and disgusted manner. "But! They don't know that his wife is his mother, so it's technically not his fault, but the fault of his own parents who gave him away to be put on a mountain top because this Oracle predicted that Oedipus would kill his father one day. Weird, huh?" the twins nodded, a bit reluctant to hear the rest of the intelligent girl's lecture.
"But anyways. The Oedipus Complex is this psychological deal, where boys fall in love with their mothers. Often, it starts when boys start to notice the differences he has with his mother, and starts to cling to her. Most boys grow out of it, but some have a type of mental inbalance where they keep loving their mother, and are attracted to them physically. You know..." Miku made a thrusting motion with her hips. The twins looked away hastily, hoping that the blue head would stop soon.
"We get it!" the two said together, truly wishing Miku would stop talking.
"Good! Boys will then tend to get competitive with their fathers over their mothers. Did you know that this works the same way with girls too? It's called the Electra Complex, where girls are attracted to their fathers..."
"Oh my... Please just stop talking! For the love of everything that lives, please stop!" Rin shouted. "If I want to know these things- which I honestly don't- I Google them."
"Are you surprised that I'm so adept at tellin psychology?" the blue head said smugly.
"No queremos saber," the twins said simultaneously.
"You guys sound like you're having so much fun~" a high soprano voice chimed from behind. The three turned to see the source of the voice, and laid eyes on a very small girl with two shoulder lengthy pigtails, curled into perfect ringlets.
"Teto-chan!" Miku squealed, launching into glomp mode. The ginger squealed in response.
"Where are you guys going?" Teto asked when she recovered.
Len spoke, "To the cafe for lunch. We're meeting Kaito and Meiko."
"Really?" Teto started excitedly, her voice raising another octave. "Would you mind if I came along?"
"I don't really see the problem," Len responded.
"Kyah~ Yay, yay!" Miku shouted, jumping up and down out of victory.
After the slight disruption, the four continued up the sidewalk. Miku and Teto chattered excitedly like chickens, ignoring the twins.
"However, the two didn't completely mind. Rin wrapped her hand around a silver MP3 player in her pocket, and pulled it out. She passed an earbud to her brother and turned it on.
The light of the player flickered uneasily, then turned off.
"The batteries must be dead..." Len suggested.
"Yeah, probably."
