By: YunCynImaginator
Imaginator: All due respect and credit goes to our Bucky owning friend, Alexandra!!
YunCyn: Seriously, she was the one who introduced us to Saiyuki! *bows* Sensei!!
Imaginator: Sou, sou! And thanks to her hilarious fanfic, it gave us this idea!
YunCyn: *laughs* Her illustrations were great too!
Muses: *muttering* Maybe we should go work for her...
YunCynImaginator: *eyes flashing* NANDATO?!
Muses: Nothing, nothing!! Ahahahaha...
YunCyn: Good! ^_^
Imaginator: Hope you have fun reading this! Arigato!
Disclaimer: Amazing how we never get tired of putting this here.
Muses: It's to keep you dimwits from getting sued.
YunCynImaginator: True...heeeeey!! Who're you calling dimwits!?!
YunCyn: AFTER THEM!!

"I'm going out."
"Where, Sanzo?"
"None of your business. I expect to see this place still standing when I get back."
(When Sanzo was out….)
"Gojyo?"
"Hm?"
"…what'll happen if Sanzo stops being a Sanzo?"
"What the hell do you mean, saru?"
"If Sanzo stops being a monk, what will he do?"
Pause.
"I dunno, collect his pension or something…"
"Sanzos' have pensions?"
"Why are you asking ME?! I'm not some monk specialist. Ask Hakkai."
"Hakkai…"
"I don't know. Maybe he WILL get a pension…"
"But I thought monks had to renounce all worldly things?"
Another pause.
"But if he quits, then he won't be a monk anymore."
"Can monks quit being monks??"
Silence.
"Ahaha…actually I'm not sure myself…"
"Can you imagine mister worldly monk quitting? Huh."
"He isn't very monkly to begin with…"
"True…"
"I still don't get it. Can monks quit and get pensions?"
Thinks hard. "…I suppose they just retire…"
"But retiring is like quitting…isn't it?"
Again pause.
"Should we even be discussing this?"
"Goku started it."
"Nani?! I just asked…"
"I know, I know, if monks could have pensions. (bored sigh) Not that it matters or anything…it's not like we're getting the pension…"
Out of nowhere.
"Can Sanzos bully their disciples?"
"No. I'm quite sure about that…"
"But Sanzo whacks us all the time!!"
"…I don't think we ARE his disciples, Goku…"
"Then what are we?"
"…according to him, his lackeys."
Throb. "Hakkai…don't you start…"
"Can Sanzos-"
"Uh, I think we'd better stop before Sanzo comes back…"
(wicked gleam) "No, no, not now, Hakkai! It's just getting good…"
"But Sanzo-"
Pointedly. "Sanzo's not here."
"Shikashi…"
Wonders. "Can Sanzos swear?"
"Ours certainly does."
"But isn't it forbidden?"
"…I suppose so…"
"Can Sanzos drink beer?"
Sweatdrop.
"Enough of this boring "Can Sanzo's this" and "Can Sanzo's that". Why don't we wonder "Can Sanzo's sleep with sexy girls…"
BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM!
"One more word and you won't finish that question."
"GAK!! When did you get back?!"
"Just in time to hear that last question. Hakkai."
"Hai?"
"Can Sanzos shoot idiotic sarus and kappas who deserve long, painful, agonizing deaths?"
"…………ahaha…………"
Tbe End.

YunCyn: So, CAN monks retire?

Imaginator: (laughs nervously) Let's just change the subject, isn't the weather nice today?
YunCyn: But I really wanna kn-

YunCyn: (instantly) Ah yes!! Mister Sun is bright and bouncy today…!
