Author's Notes: For those who don't know, both Shin and dacrayZblaze1 have been suspended from uploading stories on Fanfiction.net for period of time. Grr..

They removed Airwave Seduction and Aoshi Stripped Bare.

BUT!

dacrayZblaze1 wants people to know she's posting it now over at mine and Shin's Yahoo! group, Shinobi Love. We don't ban lemons, we produce 2: Jan 7th

Conceit thy name is Shinomori Aoshi! Never have I spent a more frustrating thirty minutes in my life since college Calculus! Grrr!!! I am amazed at the sheer force of my willpower that I didn't end up stomping out of the restaurant. Honestly.

Starting at the beginning...

I scheduled a nice noon interview at Bertucci's, one of my favorite Italian restaurants, figuring if I had to interview the man I could at least get some penne bolongese too. And Coke. They serve Coke very good there. Nice and sweet. So I arrive and take a seat by the window where there are some lovely hydrangea in the window sill thingie and I pull out my notepad and pen. And wait.

After a minute of tapping my nails against the table, (how I love metallic blue nail polish so much!), I began doodling on my notepad of some random bishounen. God I love anime and manga. I was so happy that I got to interview Watase Yuu and Takeuchi Naoko for the magazine. I'm supposed to be interviewing CLAMP soon! Joy!

Anyways, back to my rantfest of the odious Aoshi!

After ten minutes he arrived....looking as if he just rolled out of bed. He wore black jeans, a black tee-shirt and a beige trench-coat. His hair was slightly unruly but...well rather looked appealing in that let's roll back into bed type of way but his eyes were..cold.

Without so much as hello he took a seat across from me as the waiter, who I had suspected as being gay, gazed at Aoshi like he wanted to jump him or something. I suppose he has appeal....though negative personality is a problem. so our waiter comes over and asks what we'd like to drink.

Naturally I reply Coke. My assignment orders tea.

Green tea.

Hrrrmmmmm....

Quite quickly our waiter returns, yay! speed racer waiter!, and I get my beloved Coke. And trench boy his tea.

After ordering, I my penne, Broody Boy Ceasar salad, I begin the interview with the basic questions.

Me: What inspired your book?

Aoshi: The general behavior of most women.

Me: Ok...did you have some sort of bad break-up?

Aoshi: No, just observation.

Me: I see..your book opens with: 'Women are cruel nature and will seek their own pleasures regardless of lover or friend. It is in their nature, much common to that of the bitch in heat.' Don't you think that's a bit harsh?

Aoshi: My book is not about the wonders of love or about sugar-coating. It's honesty.

Blah blah! God! This guy was soooo scathing and so full of himself and his 'brutal honest virtues'. Basically I ended up with a piece that was going to be two opposing views. But ah, I can paint him as the misogynist jerk he is. Why Megumi wanted me to interview him is beyond me!

THEN! As if things weren't a total waste of my time...

The interview's end.

Me: So what's next for you, Shinomori-san?

Aoshi: A new book about the trivial pursuits of women's magazines.

Me: I...see..

And then...it happened. I called him an asshole. And he?

Aoshi: I notice you intake a great deal of carbohydrates. You may want to watch your figure.

Damn murder being illegal!!!!!!! Damn it allllllllllllllllll!!!

None-the-less, this interview was a bust. I suppose I'll salavage what I can.

And then Jiya calls me demanding my presence to this thing for the Aoiya, some event celebrating it's 20th anniversary. As long as I don't have to waitress I might as well. Though I do hope Jiya doesn't get drunk and start leching around.

I'm not sure Okon and Omasu have enough rope to tie him to a chair again.

Oh well. Goodnight!
