Ch. 5, Behind the scenes.
So there was a bunch of interviews right? And only a few people got to be on set at one time right? Meaning that the rest of the people had to co-exist within a few hundred meters of each other right?
Right!
So how exactly did we manage without some serious mishaps? We'll show you an exclusive behind the scenes take on A Friendly chat in Paradise.
Akuma paced inside the villaTaka wanted her to stall the people coming but that was harder than it looked. Especially considering the nature of those she was supposed to be subduing.
DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNG DOOOOOOOOOONNNNG! It was the doorbell. Akuma walked over to it and swept it open. And shut it again.
"Hey! That's not very nice Akuma! You let me in this minute or I'll--!" A muffled voice started to make some very unseemly threats on the other side of the sturdy door.
"You're in no position to say such things Okami," Akuma cackled true-to-type. A long torrent of pounding ensued. "All right. All right. Don't break the freakin door down ok? This ain't my place." She opened the portal to emit a rather flustered girl. She had long golden-brown hair with bleached bangs; pointed wolf ears protruded slightly from its curls.
"Hey where's Taka huh?"
"Outside…heehee…she's such a moron." Akuma snickered and was promptly cut off by whack upside the head.
Taka was back but she didn't look so good. "Shut it Akuma, I'm already mad enough as it is. Kami-chan?" she said noticing her other friend. " Why are you here?"
"Thought you might need some help." She shrugged offhandedly. "Looks like I arrived right on time."
"Yeah, can you keep the guests occupied while I'm doing interviews? Akuma will help but I need her for other stuff."
"Sure thing," Okami smiled.
"Thanks. You're a life-saver!" And Taka rushed off.
" Jeez. You get called a life saver and I get a shoe in the moth. I feel unloved." Akuma said.
"So. You got any ideas?"
"Not really. We could…tell jokes or something…"
"Yeah…"
The Sanzo-ikkou arrived first, the rest wouldn't come until later. And so they told jokes; Saiyuki jokes.
"How many Kougaigis does it take to change a light bulb?" Akuma grinned nervously.
"I don't know. Do tell." Hakkai encouraged her politely. Okami was already hanging all over him.
"Only one, but it will take some time because he'll start to wonder if it's worth the effort. Then he'll wonder who he's doing it for. Then he'll probably get angry and smash the light bulb when he realizes that he is just a puppet who can't even change a light bulb properly." The room was kind of silent… "And Kami, stop mooning over Hakkai. Inuyasha will be jealous."
And so it went on like this.
How many Gyokumen Koushus (the evil lady with funky green hair that directs Kougaigi) does it take?
Again, it only takes one although she must perform dangerous experiments that somehow end up driving the entire youkai population insane. If anyone accused her she would become haughty and reply that it was necessary if the light bulb was to be "resurrected." (Plus, she'd have her minions do it all for her.)
How many Doctor Niis would it take to screw in a light bulb?
I could better answer this question if he would stop trying to do freakish tests on the different kinds so he knew which ones worked the best and actually try to do something.
How many Son Gokus does it take to change a light bulb?
At first, I'd say it would take quite a few. Goku isn't exactly the smartest cookie in the jar, but here, less is more. The less Gokus- the less light bulbs eaten.
How many Genjyo Sanzos does it take?
Only one. However, it may take awhile considering his nature. If Sanzo doesn't utterly destroy it with Holy Magic because it doesn't work, he will be so startled when it does blink on that he will blow it up with his gun. Then of course he will get all sad because the light bulbs had "called to him".
How many Sha Gojyos does it take?
It takes two. One to screw the light bulb and one to actually screw the light bulb in.
How many Cho Hakkais does it take?
Well, I'd say about three. One to keep Gojyo in line and help Goku with his stomach problems since he ate the lights. Another would have to keep Sanzo from shooting both of them. A third would actually be the one to go get the light bulb and put it in. This might take a few trips as Hakkai will have to keep purchasing more bulbs because the former ones broke due to his bad driving.
How many of the Three Aspects would it take?
They can't. C'mon people, they're floating heads! All they can do is yak. They know this and so they would charge Sanzo with the task.(and they would be extremely upset when the credit card bill came in cuz Sanzo had to buy a bunch since he kept breakin' them all.
How many Kanzeon Bosatsus does it take?
It takes one. She could just zap it and make it light up, but it's way more fun to watch all the bumbling idiots try to do it and so electrocute themselves.
(HEY I HEARD THAT! ZAP A bolt of lighting fries the already wrecked villa.)
How many Akumas would it take?
note: Akuma is throwing ice water on Taka when this particular joke is being told.
It takes one. But she would probably have much more fun throwing it at Taka sniff…
(Star Wars music comes on in background and an announcer with a british accent is heard saying) Thank you for watching A Friendly Chat in Paradise. Next we have Survivor; Ruroken Style and The Oh So Tangled Love Lives In Feudal Japan. Thank you.
So there's the story. Hope you all liked it. Light bulb jokes are fun! I still want reviews even if it is the end. So don't be shy!
I will be writing a Rurouni Kenshin Survivor and a weird love-life thing for Inuyasha.
Ill miss you. Chibi-cry! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!
