Kyoko's Rant
Taking a page from the expressions of her best friend, she sat down roughly in front of the Author with her arms wrapped tightly across her chest and gave her an angry look. "MO! Just who the hell do you think you are messing with my life like that?!"
Said author looked up past her laptop screen at the angry little pixie with feigned innocence and asked. "Can I help you Kyoko?"
Kyoko just gaped at her. "Yes, you can help me! You can stop writing about me slutting around with Tsuruga-san! It's embarrassing!"
"I have no idea what you're talking about." She told her indignantly. "Examples please of said acts."
Kyoko sighed heavily. "Really? You're going to make me tell you?"
The author smirked and raised her eyebrows then reclined in her seat waiting for an answer.
"Well... I suppose it would be Ticket To Love... That would be the first one even though it wasn't with Tsuruga-san and I guess I did end up marrying him." She gave her an angry look. "But then you had to be a bitch and kill him off."
"I made up for it in Coming Back. No harm, no fowl..." She giggled.
"Ha...Ha... I see what you did there. Not funny. Making fun of me playing Bo..." She pouted.
"Anything else?" She asked as she crossed her legs and started tapping a pencil on the desk.
"Stop that! It's annoying and yes there is! What about when you had Tsuruga-san, Sho-baka, Beagle and Hikaru-senpai harass me mercilessly with all of those gifts in that story about secret admirers? I thought I was going to die of a heart attack." She scolded.
"Now, now... In all fairness, that one wasn't all me... As told in the story, the God of Love did participate and as you have been told by Lory so many times, Cupid is a very powerful god." She defended.
"Poppycock! That is bull-crap and you know it. Don't use..." She looked around the small office warily then whispered. "Don't use him as an excuse for your reason to torture me."
The sneaky author just shook her head and sighed. "Okay... What next?"
"Exactly! That little collection of perverted shorts and the other one too. Although some of them in Good Girl, Bad Girl aren't all that bad... But What Next! That one is dripping with innuendo and outright naughty stuff! You even had me doing it with Beagle! EEW!" She ranted about the two collections.
"In my defense, I would like to state that the short with you and Reino in it was a dream sequence specifically requested by him. I had nothing to do with that one. The poor guy is completely smitten by you and he suffers greatly." She told her.
Kyoko snorted. "Good... He deserves to suffer, so stop putting me in stories with me as his girlfriend!"
The author sighed and sunk down into her chair. She knew this little meeting was going to be a long one. Apparently Kyoko was going to critique all of her works and let her know exactly what she thought about the meddling in her life. "Next?"
Kyoko nodded. "Good I'm glad we're on the same page here at least. You're story Enough Is Enough was... well it was infuriating! I most certainly can't model and it would be a miracle if I could even carry a tune in a bucket and I most certainly wouldn't have sex with Tsuruga-san... at least before" she whispered the last part. "before getting on the pill." She finished hastily.
The author sighed. "Now Kyoko, there are so many things I see wrong with your last statements. You created the character Natsu and Ren taught you how to model very well and as for singing, I know for a fact that you can sing and have a very beautiful voice. Just because Sho didn't like it, doesn't mean others wouldn't. And about you and Ren... You know... Well I know for certain that you are a modern woman and wouldn't let some archaic standard hold you back. You're a big girl, you can handle it."
Kyoko groaned. "Fine! Maybe I would, but responsibly and I most certainly wouldn't have with Sho as you had me do in the story Secrets! And you got me pregnant with his child in that one too!"
"I did not get you pregnant in that one! Sho did!" She responded indignantly.
"Ahhh! You know what I mean, smart-ass!" She barked out exasperatedly.
The author chuckled. "Alright, alright but you have to admit, you still ended up with your fairy prince and a wonderful son that loved his mother very much and favored her in his looks."
Kyoko nodded and smiled softly. "Yeah... He was a sweetheart. I do relive that one often to be with him." A little tear escaped.
The author handed her a tissue and consoled her. "I could write him into another if you'd like."
Kyoko looked up at her and smiled. "I'll give it some thought."
"Are there any of the stories that you actually enjoy being in?" She asked, genuinely wanting to know.
Kyoko smiled brightly and put on her fairy tale face. "Actually... I did like being a princess, twice. Good call on those two. Although, sleeping for almost a thousand years was a little scary and I truly feared for Kuon's life several times in that story. And I really liked the one where I was a fairy princess. What you did to Sho-baka was hilarious. You don't like him very much, do you?"
The author's green eyes turned dark and sinister. "No... I do not. I am of the opinion that snakes only shed their skins... they do not switch species. The way he treats you is deplorable and Shoko allows it and stands by while she watches his abuse towards you escalate. She's a pedophile and he's an abuser, it's disgusting." The author's own little demons began swirling around her.
"Okay. I guess it's safe to say that you had similar experiences with men?" Kyoko asked carefully.
The author nodded. "I guess you could say that we are sisters in spirit and I humbly apologize for forcing you to be happy in the end."
Kyoko rolled her eyes and groaned. "It's not that bad. I mean I have been a cat person, a werewolf, a fairy, a witch and a vampire. Oh and I got to be an angel again, so... I'm not completely put out by it all." She grinned mischievously. "And I did get to turn Sho-baka into a frog. And... And I'm really looking forward to my life as a Djinni. So far that one has been quite fun." She said excitedly.
The author looked at her with interest. "Really? What do you like about it?"
Kyoko tapped her lip with her index finger as she thought about it. "Well... I don't exactly need money for anything, I have my own palace with a huge garden, the temperature there is always perfect, the food's always good, I have an endless supply of clothes and makeup and whenever I want to go somewhere, I only have to think about it. Oh! Oh! And there are so many wonderful ways to torture Sho-baka too. I especially enjoyed turning him into a tiny pig." She giggled. "I just wish I could do the same to Morizumi-san right now." She grumbled something about conniving little bitches.
The author leaned in and whispered. "Don't worry, I'm sure there will be plenty of stories with her and Sho-baka suffering for their selfishness."
"You would do that for me?" She asked in a hopeful voice.
The author smiled mischievously. "Not just me... There are others. Others that feel the same way about those two and have very distinct ideas on how they should suffer."
Kyoko leapt from her seat and pulled the author into a bone-crushing hug as the author giggled. "Thank you!"
The author smiled and nodded. "You're very welcome. Now we both need to get back to work."
"Oh! Yes, of course! Thank you so much!" Kyoko told her as she pulled away from the author and grabbed her purse.
"Oh and Kyoko?" The author bowed before her. "Please take care of me."
Kyoko smiled and returned the request and bow then left the author to her own devices.
