Kenshin Outtakes for the Easily Amused
By: Lucia I. L. Tanaka, Hoshigami Takahashi

Lucia: Yo, readers. Allow me to introduce-

Hoshi: Ohaaaaaayo! (victory sign) Hoshigami Takahashi, Founder and President of the Pie Lovers Association!

Lucia: -.- Don't make me hurt you so soon in your first collaboration.

Hoshi: But don't you like pie...? I'm pumpkin!

Lucia: ... (shifty glance) Anything but apple...Damn movie...

Hoshi: (giggles) How about -hee hee- lemon meringue?

Lucia: (draws her Angelus Shotgun)

Hoshi: Gomen -hee- nasai.

Lucia: (growls) Just...just explain the fic, you sugar-crazed psycho.

Hoshi: (bounces) Bubbles!

Lucia: KENOSHORO MITAZO!

Keno: (appears from a puff of logic) (injects Hoshi with a Sanity Stabilizer) (disappears again)

Hoshi: (head falls forward on chest) Nyah! (lifts head, slightly glassy-eyed) This fic is the result of a boring chorus class. Yes, Lu and I go to the same school. We just jotted down things that would never happen on the Ruruken set.

Lucia: Start the fic! (cuddles Kenshin-bot)

Hoshi: (does so in a shower of citrus-scented bubbles)

Saitou & Kenshin: (arms linked together, cups of sake in free hands, swaying to and fro singing) Lean on me, when you're not strong, and I'll be your friend. I'll help you-

Sanosuke: (walks in and stares) What in the Kami-sama's good name are you doing?!

Kenshin: (snickers and hiccups) We're- we're- we are...are...(loses balance and falls on his back) (sits up) We, my dear friend Sano, are bonding.

Saitoh: (stumbles around, looking for the sake bottle and singing) We all have pain, we all have sorrows...

Yahiko: (swaggers into the dojo wearing a white tank top, baggy jeans, a gold chain around his neck, and a Spiderman Band-Aid on one cheek)

Kaoru & Kenshin: O.O

Yahiko: Yo, yo. Wuh goin' on, ma homie K's? (gansta hand salute) Word to yo momma.

Kenshin: (running from the police)

Cop: Stop him; he's violating the sword-banning act!

Kenshin: (trips) Shi -I mean- Oro!

Cop: (blinks and helps him up)

Kenshin: Arigato. (dusts self off ) Shall I continue running, de gozaru ka?

Cop: Of course.

Kenshin: (runs)

Kenshin: (painting toenails) Did you hear? Shishio switched brands of bandages.

Sanosuke: (drops nail file) Omigosh! He did?

Kenshin: Yep. Switched from Charmin to Angel Soft. (whispers) He might even switch to Cottonelle.

Sanosuke: (gasp) Really?

Kenshin: Well...Soujiro-chan says...(lowers voice) Charmin gives Shishio a rash...

Shishio: (looks around nervously then turns on T.V.) (sings along) Hamtaro! When we work together, its much better! My ham-hams! We like sunflower seeds, krum krum krum!
