! Three! Two! One! Zero! ! – a series of Youji/Natsuo drabshots
What are drabshots, you ask? They are stories that are longer than drabbles but too short to be considered a one-shot, a term conned by MANKINFAN! Enjoy reading these Loveless drabshots!

Tattoo
"Ooh, Kio, tattoo."
Kio turned. He was currently shirtless after the Zeros had attacked him with an uncountable number of water balloons at his arrival and at the moment, they were staring at him so intensely he felt like he was being molested. Quickly sliding a shirt over his head, he turned to face them. "Yeah, I have a tattoo on my back. So?"
"It's cool."
"Yeah, but wouldn't it hurt?"
"Psh. I can handle that kind of pain." He cocked his head, the numerous piercings on his left ear glittering in the light. "What about you two?"
The Zeros blinked.
"That tattoo." He pointed at the nape of Youji's neck, where there lay an oval with a line through it diagonally. A zero. "I've seen it many times when I've been here so it must be a tattoo, because no scar is perfect like that. And Natsuo has one too."
"It's not a tattoo," Natsuo insisted. "It's our name."
"Alright…" These kids were weird sometimes. "But didn't it hurt to get it so close to your neck?"
"Hurt?" Youji grinned sadistically as he turned to Natsuo. "Pain?"
"What is that?" Kio shied back as the two boys gave him two mischievous grins. "Erm…never mind."

Note: Mild spoiler…though Kio's tattoo has nothing to do with the story, but it's really cool looking. Is it just me, or does most of my fics end in Kio majorly surprised and confused by the Zeros? Because it seems to be a trend I fall into. Requests are now suggested because I'm hitting the wall and only have a few left to crank out (alright, maybe a good ten). To request: simply type the prompt in your review. Thank you.
