Good Girls Wear White
Class 2D's resident girl-crazy loser duo were deep in discussion.
"Whaddya think about the class rep?"
"Probably, yeah."
"Uotani?"
"Definitely not."
"Hanajima?"
"Another no. Hers have got to be black, right?"
Kyo sidled up to the two. "What the hell are you talking about?"
"'Good girls wear white.'"
"Huh?"
"You know… panties."
"Panties? You're talking about underwear?"
"So, you suppose that Honda's are white?"
Kyo snorted. "Of course they are. I've seen 'em."
"You've seen Tohru's panties?" the two squealed in shock. LOUDLY.
"Yeah, on the clothesli…" was all that Kyo could get out before Uotani's pipe concussed his skull.
Author's Note: Okay, it's been quite awhile since I last updated this baby. I can't promise that I will update this regularly, but this story is definitely not dead.
I feel like I have a lot to explain/justify in this tiny story. Allons!
The two guys referred to in the first line (if I wasn't clear enough) are the two referred to as the "2D Iend-frays" in one of Takaya's side notes in the manga. I wouldn't have called them the "Iend-frays" in the story itself, but I thought that might be a bit too obscure.
The "class rep" they are talking about is the never-named girl in glasses who has been known to assist Yuki in leading class discussions from time to time.
I know that it's an anime/manga convention for some characters to be pathologically shy or embarrassed about the laundering of underwear, but in reality, that doesn't happen. Particularly if, like Tohru, you are someone who deals with laundry on a nearly-daily basis. I don't think she would shy at all away from hanging her lingerie out to dry with the rest of the laundry. It wouldn't even occur to her to be shy about that.
And Kyo is just socially clueless enough to not realize that there are dorks out there, like the Iend-frays, who DO have a fetishy hang-up over that sort of thing.
So, have I killed the story through over-explaining? I hope so. Until next time!
