Egotism at it Best
act 1 scene 1
Dirty, rotten, good for nothing, scoundrel, and scruffy, were among the cleaner selection of words that the woman had felt inclined to share that morning. Running a hand through his raven black hair, Kuronue sighed drastically,
"She must have fallen in love with me."
A good-for-nothing, scruffy scoundrel indeed.

Youko Kurama sat, half-naked, his lower half adorned in white pants. The fox's top half was built like a god's, or so he had been told by thehundreds of women who had thrown themselves at his feet. Currently,he was strumming his elegant, but well calloused fingertips, carelessly against the emperor's prized jade table. The seasoned thief looked down at the hand-carved beauty. Things were so much easier then. Back before Yomi, before the guild, before the complicating twists his life had taken.
"What can I say? Mrs. Simplicity and I don't see eye to eye."

Although these two conman titans rose to a higher and higher rank amongst the dishonorable, their two paths would not cross. That was how it should have been, of course. Mistress Fate and Lady Luck must have been drunk and gambling that day. It was the day when the two thieves paths would cross, a stand still in time, a cease function of heavens traffic lights.
Nevertheless, they were both demons. Both men. Both thieves. Both stole hearts with simple glances. Or just purses. Their disreputable ways made them legends. Legends among scum.
End.
A/N: Alrighty, don't know where it came from, I realize it's crap. I kind of like the idea of writing about Kuronue and Youko's thief-ly life...maybe I will. But...it's been about two years since my last attempt at writing a story alone. That ended up horrible. No one could understand a word of what I'd written, it was so confusing. I hope that wasn't that confusing. If it was...WHY DO YOU TAUNT ME ZEUS? xP Please...review...even if it's to say it was horrible and you've just wasted the past five minutes of your life on my pathetic ramblings!
