the girls parts are all descriptions of dresses that Tomoyo made for them, so if you don't care, don't read. don't give me a review that says something like, "who cares?" Because i warned you.


"Ok Kyo, you know how everything has a balance right?" Li decided to start out simple.

"Yeah, like black and white." Kyo nodded.

"Kind of. More like a negative charge and a positive charge in a battery." Li looked around for an example, and spied a kid at the end of the park on the swings. "Like physics. Every action has an equal but opposite reaction. See that kid?"

"Yeah." Kyo smiled, the kid looked like he was having fun.

"Every time he goes up, he comes back down. If he didn't keep his legs pumping, sooner or later the reaction would stop too."

"Ok, so how does this relate to the CAT?"

"Somehow, Kyo, you and the rest of the zodiacs, keep pumping your legs." Li shrugged. "Something inside you tells your body that it cannot survive without the spirits so it keeps… I don't know, it…"

"It traps the CAT inside, even as it repels." Kyo muttered. "I felt it, when we switched bodys. It hurt, a lot, and it wanted to keep you the same way it kept me."

"But I have protections against something invading my body Kyo, in normal circumstances the CAT would never have been able to even think about jumping into my body. But we were weak when we switched. If Sakura hadn't been there, and Eriol too now that I think about it, I don't know what would have happened."

"So, this is a positive conversation." Kyo drawled as the kid flung himself from the swing. He landed neatly on both feet, and only stumbled a little as he went to run off. Kyo watched the kid run, and wondered if he'd ever been so carefree. Then he looked over at Li, and wondered the same thing. The boy always seemed so… "You're too serious!" he accused. Li frowned at his friend.

"What, do you want me to crack a joke? I know several." he lifted a brown brow in query.

"I dunno. Your just always… so…"

"Why did the French nun go to China?"

"What?"

"Why did the French nun go to China?" Li insisted.

"I don't know, why?" Kyo crossed his arms, waiting to be impressed.


"I knew it!" Tomoyo's voice rang out cheerfully. Half an hour before she had taken all her friends and improved them. She was having the time of her life and they hadn't even left Meilin's yard yet. Sakura blushed as the camera swept over her, always her best work. Tomoyo thought with a grin. A short pink dress with fluttery sleeves, stars and moons and suns appliquéd over the filmy material. Her hair was pulled back with two star barrettes that had ribbons floating from them, and her cute mary jane shoes were pink with a sun buckle on one and a moon buckle on the other. Meilin had submitted without a fuss and was now wearing a pair of black yoga pants and a red Chinese style shirt with ribbon enclosures on one side. The sides of her pants had silver lighting bolts racing each other on the sides, the shirt had silver piping. Meilin had taken to leaving her hair down from the buns she used to wear as a child, but Tomoyo couldn't help that her predominant image of the girl was with bun wraps. Luckily Meilin didn't mind that Tomoyo had made a pair up. Tohru was adorable in a dress that was almost like Sakura's, but a baby blue with zodiac animals stitched along the bottom hem. Hana had been easy, almost too easy considering the fact that the girl only wore black outside of their uniform. Tomoyo made up a long black shift dress that was covered over with a dull silver spider web material. The sleeves were made only of the spider web, and connected to the middle fingers of each hand with two silver pipe rings. She had fun curling the girls hair until it was arranged as ringlets down her back. Uo had been her only real challenge. Not only in designing something for the girl, but in getting her to wear it. She had to admit, if only to herself, she was a real genius. Once she showed Uo the outfit the girl had been speechless.

"Ladies, may I present…"


"She was a Roman Catholic." Li delivered with a straight face.

"Huh?"


"Arisa Uotani-san!" Tomoyo swept out her arms and pulled Uo into the light. She actually looked happy as she twirled around to give everyone a better look. If she hadn't been wearing pants underneath the skirt would have been too short for decency, but the kilt pattern was fluttery over the pants made from the same red material. A short white v-neck t-shirt was layed over with a vest of black leather and huge shiny buckles. Two buckles cuffed her wrists while another wrapped around her neck. With her hair pulled back she looked like an American punk-rocker.

"Isn't she adorable?" Tomoyo preened. Tohru smiled hesitantly while Hanajima grinned as much as she could with her mouth closed.

"Hoe?" Sakura squealed, "It looks so cute! I didn't think you'd make this one!" Sakura had seen Tomoyo's sketch book and made comments on different styles. But she always wondered where the ideas had come from for the outfits Tomoyo made for her.

"I could so totally kick ass in this!" Uo pumped her fist in the air and grinned. Tohru smiled when she realized her friend was happy. She just wanted everyone to have a good time.

"Everybody ready?" Tomoyo asked from behind the camera. Uo looked at her and placed her hands on her waist.

"What about you?"

"What about me?"

"Where is your dress?" Hana caught on.

"I'm wearing it."

"Take off the coat." Uo tucked her hands in the roomy pockets and grinned mischievously. Tomoyo merely looked over the camera and smirked. "Give me your camera. I need to see this." There was a slight jostling while the camera switched hands.

"Ready?" Tomoyo teased.


"A Roman Catholic?"

"Get it?"

"…"

"Roaming…"

"…"

"From France to China…"

"Roaming?"

"Yeah."

"That was really bad."

"Two muffins were sitting in an oven. One muffin turned to the other and said, Gosh its hot in here. The second muffin turned to the first and said…"


She flicked the shoulders of her trench coat down, revealing nothing more than a clear expansion of shoulders. Creamy skin and a couple of silver chains looped around her neck.

"Wooooohoooo!" Uo teased, "Take it off!" Sakura smiled, happy that her new friends and older friends were having fun with each other. Meilin nudged her gently and handed her a small pink hat Tomoyo had concealed from the others earlier.

"For the plushy." she whispered as Tomoyo whisked the coat away with a flourish. Pure white dazzled the midday sun. her dress was held up at her chest with stretchy lace and conformed to her body until her hips. It flared out and as she spun the others noticed the under layers of lacey skirts. She didn't wear any hose, but the white flats she wore were accompanied by lacey socks that fanned out over the star buckles. She wore loose silver chains around her neck and left wrist, and large silver stars connected to her ears.

"Oh, wow!" Sakura breathed out.

"Wooooooooohooo!" Uo pumped a fist in the air, "We'll show Yuki's brother! Decked out like this! He'll eat your dust girl-o!"


"Oh my god! it's a talking muffin!."


I'm sorry! i had to get that joke in something! I've loved the muffin joke since high school! AHHH!

please don't flame me for my lame jokes!
