Body By Mattel, Brain By MENSA
Saying, sender, and recipient courtesy of LonelyTombRobber, her review of Chapter 55.
'I'm a Barbie Girl! In a Barbie World! I'm so fantastic! My boobs are plastic!' blared out in loud glittery purple lettering from the bright pink T-shirt in Mai's hands. It was a size extra small, so as to showcase the wearer's assets most effectively.
Téa's Siamese kitten, Zsa-Zsa, gave the offending shirt a quick, investigatory sniff, and promptly sneezed when glitter went up her nose. She gave a plaintive mew and jumped up into her mistress' lap to be cuddled.
"I may wear makeup – and never too much, despite what Joey says – but my body is one hundred percent real," Mai said huffily, dropping the shirt on the floor in digust.
"And I can attest to that," Téa added with a comical leer. She still couldn't keep herself from blushing as she spoke the innuendo, though, which Mai thought was sweet. "Seeing as how I have thoroughly investigated your body."
"So very true…" Mai agreed on a purr. Téa blushed brighter, and Mai performed a deft changed of subject, causing Téa's face to lighten. "And I would love to revisit those investigations, but right now we need to investigate this prankster – or at least pick someone to hit." She had a sneaking suspicion who it was, however…
"The insult rhymed – it was probably Para and Dox," Téa pointed out, scratching under Zsa-Zsa's chin.
Mai secretly smirked; she'd been right. "Ah. Dumb and Dumber. Their writing style is a dead giveaway." She sighed mock-mournfully. "It's almost too easy to pick on the Idiot Twins, though. If only they were smarter they'd prove a greater challenge."
"Maybe we should give away an insult to someone else," Téa offered. "Someone who isn't as stupid, to make things more fun."
A thought occurred to Mai, and she smirked. "And I know just who to get…" she said, a mischievous gleam in her eyes.
