The Random Observations of a Random Observer
Chapter Two: Bandaids Have Great Powers
Karmi screamed as she fell through the large black hole. Luna sat crosslegged beside her, wondering why this had to happen on Saturday. Since our beloved Earth scientists have yet to figure out the hows and whys of black holes, we must consider it entirely possible that this particular one lead to Spooner. Which it did. Which is why the large screaming mass that was Karmi fell straight down and right onto the muscle wonder named Gaeteu. It was a rather soft landing for Karmi, who immeadtly stopped screaming, blinked several times and promptly sat on Gaeteu's shoulders and curiously poked him.
Luna, however, was not so lucky. Continuing to fall, she landed, face first, into the large pile of logs Gaeteu had been chopping.
"OWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! $^*%^*)@$(@)$(^*%)&*()*()@$(!@#(#)$%#)(@!#)(^*%)&*$#@#$^&&*%T^$#!@!@#%&^*&%# $%@#$!#!@#$%&^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Luna screamed hysterically, holding her face in her hands.
Karmi, ever oblivious, blinked several times and wondered why luna was making such a fuss. After all, the logs had been chopped very nicely. After about 10 more minutes of hysterical and very uncharteristic screaming on Luna's part, Gaeteu got the idea into his head that he should probably find out exactly who these people were. Which he did.
"Um, miss?" Gaeteu questioned, tapping her on the leg several times and looking up.
"Huh, me?" Karmi replied, turning her head from staring at Luna, who was now running around in little circles and sobbing, holding her nose, and turned towards the blonde haired man upon whom she had taken residence.
"Yes, um, might I ask what your name is?"
"Oh. Oh! It's Karmi! Nice to meet ya!"
"Nice to meet you too...I think. My name is Gaeteu. Gaeteu Mocha."
They both shook hands akwardly, considering Karmi was still sitting on his shoulders. Luna, by this time, had stopped screaming, but merely stood there, tears gushing, and holding her nose most pitifully. Amidst the moment of odd silence, Karmi squealed upon seeing Sprekles, her beloved calico cat, sitting clamly alongside a yellow rubber duck.
"SPREKLES!" she hugged the cat tightly, the cat rather annoyed at this very undignified position.
Luna and Gaeteu sweatdropped in the background.
~ Meanwhile, In Another Part Of Town. ~
Marron Glace sat at a large wood desk, studying several totally incomprhensible ancient scrolls which would make no sense whatsoever to anyone except for weird smart people like Marron who are actually intrested in this sort of thing. Carrot, Chocolate, Tira, and the village elder's daughter were all engaged in a very large cloud of dust. Now, after reading that sentence, you must think me very odd indeed, but it is the truth. You see, Carrot had started hitting on Juniper, the daughter, who had punched him out, and then Chocolate had come to his "rescue," and then Tira, stupidly, had tried to stop the fighting, and so now they were all in various odd positions, wrestling, and bringing up a large amount of dust. Thus, they were all engaged in a large cloud of dust. End commentary.
Marron, as always, for the sake of his own sanity, chose to ignore them. However, it was getting late, and Gaeteu was not back yet, which WAS cause for worry. Usually the blonde (in his neverending quest for firewood) would chop up several trees, load them up in a cart, and come back home. This would take no longer than an hour. But it was now 6:30, and he had left at 5. Oh yes, this was very odd indeed.
Sighing, Marron got up, took one look at the wrestling teens, decided not to get involved, and was about walk out the door in search for their missing group member when he ran smack dab into a short girl with black hair as long as his. Now, Marron was relatively okay, because despite being more of magician than physical fighter, he was in pretty good shape. Luna, on the other hand, was not. Her very fragile and bloody nose had now been crunched straight into the very solid Marron, and the sobs started again, to the shock of Marron, curiosity of Karmi, and annoyance of Gaeteu.
Now you must understand that Luna crying is a very unusual occurance. Very unusual. If it had been, say, Karmi, we would not have given it a second thought. But, being that it is Luna, and not Karmi, it is all very odd. I would like for everyone to take a moment to realize the irony and have a very hearty laugh at Luna's expense. Alright. Moment over. Back to the plot line, or lack there of.
"Lu-na!" Karmi exclaimed for high atop Gaeteu Tower, throwing her hands out, "What's wrong now?"
"MY NOSE DAMNIT! IT GOT CRUNCHED BY THIS BIG STUPID THING IN MY WAY!" Luna screamed back, tears gushing as she wailed in pain.
"So why don't you uncrunch it?"
Let us all marvel at Karmi's stupidity.
"YOU DUMBASS! I CAN'T *UNCRUNCH* IT! IT'S BROKEN AND BLEEDING AND FUCK IT, IT HURTS!"
Marron, being a gentleman and one not wishing to hurt random young women, pulled out his magical healing kit, and promptly took out a bandaid.
Yes, a bandaid.
Now, normally, a broken bleeding nose could NOT be fixed with a mere bandaid. But in the world of Spooner, and more importantly, Anime, bandaids have great powers. Great great powers. Appyling the said bandaid to Luna's nose, she immediatly stopped crying, sniffled, and looked up at Marron poutily.
Stepping out of the way, Luna marched in, nose in the air, trying to mantain whatever diginity she had left. (which, note, was very little.) Karmi, still sitting on Gaeteu's shoulders, ducked as they went through the door next. Last but least, Sprekles, rubber duck in mouth, padded in, finding nothing at all odd with this situation.
