NEXT MORNING
I jerked awake to the sound of girly shrieks. I looked at the clock and groaned. I still had an hour until I had to be up. Then I remembered who must be screaming and better yet, why they were screaming and I smiled and snuggled deep into my pillow and let the sounds of horrified screams lull me back to sleep.
I was shaken awake half an hour later. I instantly started laughing at the sight that greeted me. Yusuke and Miroku stood above me scowling.
"Why won't this stuff come off??"
"Because sharpie is a permanent marker??"
"You used SHARPIE on us!!"
They looked really pained as they said it. In fact, they looked like they didn't like their new looks. I don't see why not. Yusuke was sporting stylish hot pink hair with matching sharpie eye shadow and lipstick while Miroku had lovely baby blue streaks and matching blue sharpie eye shadow with ruby red lips.
"Sango! Wake up. You have to look at this. We did a really good job on them."
Sango looked over and burst out laughing.
"It's not funny." Miroku said petulantly.
"Yeah it is," she said still laughing.
They looked at each other and smirked a little bit, "Well, maybe. Just a little....can you help us get this off now?"
"It probably won't come all the way off no matter what we do...at least not today anyway."
"WHAT!"
"Relax, we can get it to fade," mentally 'A little' "Besides, I think you look cute this way." I said on my way to the bathroom. As I rummaged through the medicine cabinet I called back to Sango, "Hey what do you think, the cold cream or the astringent?"
"The astringent works better."
"How would you know?"
"Well there was this one time..."
"Never mind. I don't want to know. All right," I said as I walked back into the room, "Yusuke, Miroku, this is astringent. First it will taste awful, so don't lick your lips after we clean them. Second, keep your eyes closed really tight when we do them or badness will ensue."
A few seconds later Miroku started sputtering.
"We told you."
A couple of minutes later Yusuke jumped up clutching his eye.
"AHHH! It burns!"
I shook my head, "You baby. You're lucky you're not a girl. You'd never survive."
"Are you saying that girls are tougher than guys?"
"Yes!" Sango and I said together.
"How can you justify that? Girls run away shrieking at the sight of a spider!"
"Spiders." I shuddered.
"I squash them for Kagome, so it's not like all girls are scared of spiders."
"How about snakes?"
"Ugh." Sango said.
"I get rid of them for Sango. They're just so cute."
"Bats? Mice?"
"Don't bother us. So that card is just a matter of personality. I'm sure some guys hate these things too. So what else do you have?" I raised an eyebow challengingly.
"Girls cry easier than guys do."
"Puhlease. That doesn't mean that we're weaker, just that we're more sensitive. Besides, I haven't seen Sango cry in years." I shrugged, "I do it periodically. You'd be surprised how much trouble you can get out of if you cry. Next?"
"You aren't as strong."
"So? Strength isn't everything. We can make up for a difference of strength by being fast, agile, flexible, and smart. Plus we aren't ashamed to use our bodies to our advantage. Anything else?"
"Not that I can think of now..." Yusuke sulked, "But you haven't proven that girls are tougher than guys, only that some girls are as good as some guys."
"Women have a higher tolerance for pain."
"What!"
"It's true. Sometimes I wish I were a guy. Women get to go through the joys of childbirth, we get cramps every month, we pluck our eyebrows, and have you ever heard of the bikini wax. Ouch. We routinely either get hairspray in our eyes or we end up poking them with the mascara wand. We burn ourselves with curling irons on a regular basis, and have you ever broken a nail? It hurts like hell, especially when you get a bleeder. Not to mention we have to deal with the pain of losing our virginity. How about you guys, what do you have to deal with?"
"We shave, and we get in fights."
"That all?"
"Hey, none of your stuff is all that painful!"
"Says the guy who acted like the world was going to come to an end when he got a little bit of astringent in his eye."
"This wouldn't have happened if you hadn't put all this crap on us! Speaking of which, what did you do to our hair!?! I washed it twice and it won't come out!"
"It's just a rinse. It'll come out in a couple of days."
I glanced at the clock, "It's time for us to get ready Sango. By the way Yusuke, consider this my payback for the shower incident, and for that prank yesterday. You're free and clear. For now."
Well, looking back on my day I have to say that was about the only interesting thing that happened. My first class was Youkai Studies, another first year course. It was kind of interesting, but about as pointless as History of Makai. Then lunch wasn't very interesting either. The food was as good as always, and watching Inu run away from the rabid fan girls chasing him was kind a fun. I wonder what got into them. looks innocent You know it might have had something to do with the rumor I spread. You know the one about Inu liking one of the girls in their group and being really flattered by her attention. Kurama and Sesshoumaru thanked me. Apparently there's this big group of girls that worship the ground the guys in our group walk on. I don't see why they don't focus on other guys. I mean sure, the guys in our group are hot, but Kurama, Kouga, and Yusuke have girlfriends. Sesshoumaru has made it abundantly clear that he's not interested and he likes Kagura, though considering she's still alive and hasn't received any threatening notes lately, I'd say that they don't know about that. Inuyasha is rude and I think he's into Kikyo. Shippo's too young for most of them, and Miroku's, well, a pervert. Besides, I'd have to kill anyone who moved on him because I have plans for him and Sango. There are plenty of other bishies outside our group too. There's that guy in my elementary healing class, I've seen several in the halls, and then there is Hiei...who isn't my type and has that attitude, but I can see why someone would think he's hot. Anyway, like I was saying the day was a total wash. I hope there's something going on in our room. I think Yusuke mentioned something about a videogame competition. It could be fun. Hey, I think I hear them coming in now...
Muahaha. I am the self proclaimed queen of video games. I beat Miroku, Inuyasha, and Yusuke at Soul Calibur 2. They were amazed and annoyed. Amazed because they didn't think I could do it, and annoyed because I won twenty dollars off of each of them. Yep. I'm evil. I can't wait until they find out that I can't beat Sango most of the time. Especially if they find out the hard way....
