Slayers: The Meaning of Life
Part 11: The Secret of Life is...A Secret!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
N: *looks at watch* Well...It's been several hours...It's pretty quiet in there. Let's peek in and see what they're up to. *opens the door a crack and peers in* Xellos and XellAn are still curled up together, but they're talking now.
me: ...So what do you think, Xelly?
Xel: I think the purpose of life is what we just did. ^_^
me: *raises eyebrow* What? Procreation?
Xel: No, fun. Pleasure; you know, things that make you fell GO-OD! ^_^
me: Is that all? Nothing else?
Xel: isn't that enough?
me: as nice as that was, there must be more. I mean, what about people who never have fun? Then they'd lead a meaningless life.
Xel: Hm...
me; So what would it be then? What's the meaning of life?
Xel: Sore wa himitsu desu.
me: That's the problem! _
Xel: *smiles* Don't worry about it, XA. *kisses her* You'll find it out sooner or later.
N: She wraps her arms around him and he kisses her hair.
me: Oh, I did find some meaning here, but not exactly what I was looking for.
N: She sighs and rests her head on his chest. He grins like the Cheshire cat.
Xel: Of course, there are other things that make life meaningful.
me: Such as...?
Xel: Sore wa himitsu desu!
N: He characteristically wags his finger in her direction. She, as a response, shows him one of her own fingers...Are you allowed to do that? Shouldn't it be censored?
me: No more so than you watching our little romp on the floor, you pervert.
N: ...Erm...I didn't mean to. But that wasn't described at all. You giving him the finger...I'm not sure about that.
me: Hey, this is rated "PG." and you didn't have to say it.
N: Well, you didn't have to need to do it!
me: Grr...
Xel: Ladies! Ladies, please don't fight! It's done and over with. We had our little fling; she flipped me off, never mind it.
N: But she-
me: She's not doing her job!
Voice of the Lord of Nightmares: Stop fighting, My Children!
*silence. then:*
All 3: But L-Sama-
V of LON: No "buts." Just stop before you give me a headache.
All 3: Yes, L-sama...
V of LON: Back on topic, Children. Gimzo, you just narrate like you're supposed to. XellAn and Xellos, save the naughty stuff for later. It's not part of the story.
N: *whispering* ...It is now.
V of LON: I heard that!
N: Sorry!! ^^;
V of LON: Why don't you leave for a while, Gimzo? You're not being particularly helpful right now.
N: All right. *vanishes*
Xel: She's gone.
me: Now what?
Xel: Well, no one's around...would could...*whispers something to her*
me: *beet-red and stammering* I'm...uh...wow. We...we could do that?
Xel: Sure. Why not? _^
me: All right. I'm game. *begins taking of her shirt, then stops* Wait a minute! *to the readers* Get lost!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
AN: thanks to Gimzo the Disgruntled Dwarf for "volunteering" to play the role of narrator. i love you, Gimz! and there's more serious stuff that actually has to do with the story coming...i was having writers block. sorry! ^_^
