Notes: Senex's lyrics represent Dark while Hero's represent Daisuke's.
Onesided Daisuke+Satoshi. Onesided Dark+Satoshi. Satoshi/?? -evil grin-
/ This is talking between Dark and Daisuke. / Just italics are all private, personal thoughts.
SENEX
Why did he look at her that way?
The image of Daisuke sitting very comfortably (despite his fall down the stairs) in Satoshi's lap burned into Dark's vision. He scowled mentally, immediately banishing the thought from his head. The penetrating stare the blunette had given his tamer – and the one Daisuke returned most wholeheartedly with a frail, innocent, adorable, I'm-totally-at-your-mercy-please-take-advantage-of-me look – whilst cradling him unnerved him though, and he couldn't help but feel utterly jealous.
…Of Daisuke.
No one knew this top secret little fact…but Dark had somewhat of a little, huge thing for the commander.
HERO
Why did he look at her that way?
However, unknown to the thief, his tamer's thoughts were very paralleled to his. As Dark's own little thoughts concerning the Hikari boy spiraled around the thief's mind, Daisuke had his own to deal with.
He couldn't get the image of a cross-dressed Satoshi pressed painfully close to Dark's toned frame in the middle of a museum where they had been sent to steal an artwork. He had seen the way the blunette hadn't flinched in the face of Dark's advances, the way he had let Dark get so close to him, and the way he hadn't pushed Dark away until the very last minute. He had also seen how all thoughts of the artwork had been pushed from Dark's mind the moment Satoshi had entered the picture.
The absolutely selfless Daisuke was absolutely envious of his darker, more sensual half.
SENEX & HERO
Must be my imagination.
However, as Satoshi sat silently at his desk, looking as cold and as unapproachable as ever, neither boy – corporeal nor spirit – could comprehend his own thoughts.
Hiwatari-kun would never go for Dark. He doesn't seem the type to go for the flirty, cocky type, Daisuke decided to himself, inconspicuously admiring the blunette as he lightly fingered a page of his ever-present little black book.
Dark's thoughts were the very same, though about his vessel. Satoshi's much too cold for Daisuke. He needs me to thaw him, someone who won't blush away at every cold, freaky look he sends.
SENEX
She's a lovely blooming flower, he's just a sprout--
Impossible!
After all, Satoshi's pretty freaking sexy. He wouldn't go for someone as cute and girlish and clueless as Dai-chan. He needs someone of equal sexiness! Dark chuckled to himself sneakily, which caught Daisuke's attention immediately.
/ Dark? What're you laughing about? /
Dark shrugged mentally. / A joke I heard a while ago. /
HERO
She's a lovely blooming flower, he's all worn out--
Impossible!
Daisuke turned back towards the blackboard, still sneaking furtive glances at Satoshi, who seemed to not notice his soft stare. A while ago. Of course.
Dark is so old. If Hiwatari-kun liked him, that would make him some sort of weird gerontophile… I'm sure he doesn't like him that way, though. I think he might like me.
That's good. We're the same age, it's only normal!
SENEX
Just a fledgeling in the nest...
HERO
Just a man who needs a rest...
Too young for a relationship with him, Dark decided at the same moment Daisuke murmured, "Too old to get with a fourteen-year-old."
/ What was that, Dai? /
/ Nothing, Dark. / He sent Dark a surge of innocent, placating happiness. / Just muttering to myself. /
SENEX
He's a beamish boy at best.
HERO
Poor old fellow!
He's much too happy. Satoshi would only dampen his bright spirits, Dark reasoned.
Daisuke hummed to himself and started to copy notes down off the board. He didn't even hear what I said. Going deaf, perhaps?
SENEX
He's a child, and love's a test he's too young to pass--
Impassible!
He didn't have any luck at romancing either of the Haradas. He wouldn't be able to snag Satoshi the way his luck is with relationships. It's better for me though… Daisuke's hardly the one to make the moves.
Neither is Satoshi, for that matter. So cold, so silent.
I'm the only one out there who can man up and do the seducing. Sorry Dai-chan, but he's mine.
Another chuckle escaped Dark.
HERO
He has asthma, gout, a wife, lumbago and gas--
Irascible!
This time, Daisuke chose to ignore the spirit in his head, instead choosing to doodle absently on his paper.
'He doesn't have a body,' he scrawled lazily, a slight smile on his face as he listed reasons why Dark wasn't a suitable partner for Satoshi.
'He's old.'
'He doesn't technically exist.'
'He's the spawn of a bad piece of art and an enemy to the Hikari family.'
'I'm cute and molestable.'
Blushing to himself and stifling a giggle, Daisuke crumpled up his paper and shoved it into his pocket.
SENEX
Romping in the nursery...
HERO
He looks tired...
He's like a little child sometimes, Dark thought. Immature and overly naïve. I love my Dai-chan, yes, but he's just not Satoshi's match! Always blushing, always stammering. He can never pretend to be cool or collected like I can.
/ Daisuke, pay attention, / Dark chided, sensing the white hot laser stare the teacher was fixing upon his tamer.
He's like an annoying parent, Daisuke thought. Pushy and way too loud-mouthed. Always trying to talk me into something, always trying to turn me into him. He can never just act like a loving, accepting person.
/ Whoops. Thanks, Dark. /
SENEX
Son, sit on your father's knee.
HERO
Father, you can lean on me.
The bell rang shrilly, signaling the end of the day. Sighing in relief, Daisuke stood from his seat and put away all his things, taking a longer time than he usually would. His movements were slow and absentminded, for his eyes – and thoughts – were currently centered on Satoshi, and not the task before him.
To his surprise, the blunette walked right up to him, eyes masked and unreadable.
"Niwa-kun," he greeted, his tone not as frosty as usual.
"Ah…Hiwatari-kun." Immediately, Daisuke blushed, one hand burrowing itself deep into the pocket where he had placed his crumpled up list of Dark's cons.
Satoshi nodded. "I just wanted to say…" He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, seeming to abandon whatever it was he was going to say. "Er… Dark is planning on a heist tonight?"
Daisuke nodded, swallowing nervously. "Yes."
"Then I'll see him there."
Daisuke nodded again. "Yeah…I guess you will."
SENEX & HERO
Him? Im- Possible!
Then, without another word, Satoshi whirled around a stalked out of the empty classroom, sending both Daisuke's and Dark's thoughts whirling.
HERO
But why did she wave at him that way?
". . . Dark is planning on a heist tonight? . . . Then I'll see him there. . ."
Daisuke's stomach fluttered. Satoshi always, always brought up Dark in their conversations. It's always about Dark; always about catching Dark.
Maybe, Daisuke thought with dread, he has some ulterior intentions?
SENEX
Why did she wave at him that way?
". . . Niwa-kun. . . I just wanted to say… . . ."
Dark wondered what the Hikari had been intending to tell Daisuke. It had to be something nerve racking, that's for sure, because he had abruptly changed the subject to escape it. The thief certainly hadn't missed the almost warm intonation in the commander's voice, and that fact alone had his stomach curling.
Could he have wanted to confess something to Daisuke? Dark wondered anxiously.
SENEX & HERO
Could there be an explanation?
Well he is pretty irresistible, both boys thought ruefully about each other, unaware of the fact that their thoughts had been exactly the same.
HERO
Women often want a father, she may want mine--
It's possible!
SENEX
He's a handsome lad of twenty,
I'm...thirty-nine--
It's possible!
Everyone likes Dark. Why would Hiwatari-kun be an exception? Daisuke frowned slightly and slung his backpack over his shoulder deftly.
Dai-chan's cuteness is a magnet, I admit it. And…and…I'm kind of… Dark cringed. Too experienced for Satoshi. He would not call himself old, despite the number of centuries he had lived.
HERO
Older men know so much more...
SENEX
In a way, I'm forty-four...
Dark knows everything about anything. He could do…dirty naughty things…with Hiwatari-kun without looking like a clumsy fool. Argh, I can't compete!
I'm not old, Dark tried to persuade himself, rocking back and forth in a mental corner of Daisuke's mind hysterically. I act the age I look, after all. I'm practically an adolescent teen boy like everyone else!
HERO
Next to him, I'd seem a bore.
SENEX
All right, fifty!
Besides, Dark is so forward with things like this. He claims he likes the Western way of naming people, and so he calls Hiwatari-kun Satoshi like…like it's nothing! I could never be able to do that.
Argh… He calls Satoshi Hiwatari-kun, like they're at the same level. I call him by his first name…like I'm an old mother or something… I'm not old!
HERO
Then again, he is my father;
I ought to trust--
Impossible!
Daisuke sighed. He's Dark. He's a total playboy and womanizer. He would never go after another boy, let alone Hiwatari-kun. He calls him Creepy Boy, for goodness sake!
SENEX
Then again, with love at my age,
Sometimes it's just
Impossible!
Inside his mind, Dark was also sighing, but with rue. Okay, I'll face it. I'm about as old as a hundred Satoshi's put together…
HERO
With a girl I'm ill at ease...
SENEX
I don't feel well...
Daisuke blanched.
Dark cringed.
HERO
Sir, about those birds and bees--
SENEX
Son, a glass of water, please.
/ Dark? / Daisuke asked cautiously.
/ Yes, Dai? /
Just as Daisuke was about to ask his other half about his thoughts on Satoshi, a flash of crystalline blue caught his eye. He paid a bit more attention to the blue blob, and found it connected to the face of a more than familiar blonde.
Immediately, both tamer and angel started gagging on their own tongues.
/ Run, Dai-chan, ruuuuuuun! /
Daisuke didn't need to be told twice. As quickly as his feet could carry him, he bolted back home, not stopping until he was safely in front of his door. / Dark…did you just see that? /
/ Sadly, yes, and now I'm blind! I did not need to see Creepy Bastard in the middle of tongue hockey with…that thing! /
SENEX & HERO
The situation's fraught,
Fraughter than I thought,
With horrible, impossible, possibilities!
"That was horrible!" Daisuke screamed aloud.
/ That was impossible! / Dark chimed in.
"That was freaking –"
/ KEIJI SAGA! /
Killah: LYK LAWLZ ITZ SATO/SAGA!! Ahahahaha. Yes, I said 'lawlz.' Crack pairing, ftw? xD Well anyway…this musical is freaking hilarious. I saw it performed by a theater group in Downey, and they did a really bitchin' job at it! So I thought I should show some love to this not very well known show. :D
