Disclaimer: I don't own a damned thing. Really. Except some eyeliner and bubble gum. I promise.
A/N: This story is based on an IM conversation. Basically, I asked my friend Matt for a subject to write about and he said himself. This is what I came up with. And I promise it is a DBZ fic, despite the multiple mentions of Cowboy Bebop.
Chapter One: Bebop and Whatnot
"Hey, Matt, is the Bebop marathon still on for tonight?" Liz asked her friend on the phone.
"Yeah, we're starting at 8:00. But we've moved it to Lucas's house, cause my mom decided she didn't want that many people over here all night." was the reply.
Liz pondered that for a minute. "I don't know how to get to Lucas's house. I think you should give me a ride."
"Ok. I'll pick you up at about 7:45."
"See you then."
*~*~*
"Matt, why did you bring your entire comic book collection with you?" Liz asked, digging around in Matt's car looking for his portable CD player. "And also, why for the complete Hitchhikers Series? I thought we were watching Bebop, not talking Adams. Dammit, where is you CD player?! I wanna listen to Floggin Molly!"
Matt reached over and pulled his CD player out from under Liz's seat. She just stared at it for a minute. "Well, I was gonna look there next. Am I really this dumb?" She said dejectedly. Sometimes she was really dumb.
Matt laughed. "That's ok. It's why we all love you."
"And here I thought it was my radiant beauty and outgoing personality. Not to mention my overwhelming sense of modesty." Liz said dramatically, tossing her long blonde hair over her shoulder. Matt just laughed harder as the sounds of the Gaelic Punk group Floggin Molly started.
Once at Lucas's house, the fun really began. Andy showed up, complete in leather trench coat and makeup. Devon looked at Andy and said, "Why the fuck are you wearing all of your makeup today? We're at Lucas's house, you idiot. There's no one for you to freak out here." and then took a long drag of his joint.
"I just like wearing makeup, dammit. What's wrong with that? I think it makes me look better." Andy replied violently, all of his muscles tensing up.
"Well, I think it looks good." Liz piped up. Devon, however, didn't care anymore cause he was trying to catch Lucas's cat with a pair of tweezers that Liz really didn't want to know why he was carrying around but was intrigued despite herself. What the hell does Devon need tweezers for? She thought to herself. She opened her mouth to ask, but then decided against it. She really didn't want to know, knowing Devon. Anyway, it was fun to watch him bother the cat. Then Lucas put on Cowboy Bebop.
For the next eight hours all the teenagers sat and stared at the TV. It was funny. They were so spellbound by the anime; they didn't even notice the smoke filling up the room until it was too late to do anything about it.
