August 14, 2013. I was trying to write on Legendary Joes, but was stuck on the Dusty, Deep Six, Cover Girl go to London chapter. I mean, how many ways can you write about people going to the fricken library? This popped into my head while I was researching Wild Bill (WTF). Bleach doesn't belong to me anymore than G.I. Joe does.
Snake Eyes walked into the dojo to find Storm Shadow meditating. There was a girl nearby, chewing on the end of a pencil and staring at him. Snake Eyes clicked his tongue to get his sword brother's attention.
Storm Shadow scrunched his eyes, keeping them closed. "I'm meditating, Snake Eyes."
Snake Eyes let out a huff and started tapping his foot. Storm Shadow opened an eye and glared.
*You suddenly change your mind and are now letting the fangirls in?*
Storm Shadow opened his other eye and then glanced over at the girl. "It's not a fangirl, it's an author."
*Wait, what?*
"I was checking the bunny traps and heard her crying. Seems none of her bunnies will wake up at all and she can't write."
*That was the point.*
"True, brother, but then she started saying she was going to give up the Joe fandom and start writing about Bleach."
*Bleach?*
"Some sort of anime."
*Ok, so why is she h-e-r-e?*
"Well, she was hugging the sleeping bunnies pathetically and crying. Kept saying 'I don't want to leave you, but if I can't write about my Joe ninjas, I must not love them anymore."
Snake Eyes smacked his forehead with the palm of his head. *I can't believe you fell for that.*
"What, just because I don't want to be chased by rabid fangirls or read crappy or creepy fics doesn't mean I don't want fans. So, I made a deal with her. She can stay here and I will be her inspiration as long as I approve all the fics she writes and she makes sure I get plenty of time with Junko and not some crap OC."
They looked over at the author who was now staring at both of them. She started scribbling frantically in a notebook.
*Please don't tell me she's going to write one of t-h-o-s-e fics.*
Storm Shadow smirked, "No, if you let her, she will write about you and Scarlett, though. She's a big fan of you both being firmly together. No weird business with Duke or me. And again, if she wants to stay here, she has to write stuff that I approve, and she wants to stay here. Very badly. You should see her write when I'm doing katas. The paper should be on fire."
*Have you seen any of her Scarlett fics or any about me?*
"Curious now, brother? I can arrange the same deal for you as for me."
*Maybe.*
