Okay folks: Quick notice here.
I've decided to just make things simple ad post all my little short so-so challenge bits in thi onw thing. No seperate one for 15 minute ficlets of the SRMTHG 100 or anything. So, I'm moving the fics from those (except for some I've chosen to feature by themselves.) here. That's why you'll probably feel like you've seen the next several fics in this set before somwehere. Just thought I'd explain that to avoid confusion and lots of "Hey, I haven't I read this before?" reviews.

The door to Antauri's room slid open. The monkey had sensed it beforehand and watched Nova peek into the room. "Hey, Antauri?" Nova's voice showed distress. "Are you sure your plan will work? What if the Power Primate isn't strong enough?"
"Do not fear Nova." Antauri replied. "I assure you we will rescue Sprx."
"How can you be so sure?!" Nova didn't realize she had yelled until after the matter. "Sorry... I just..."
Antauri put a hand on his friend's shoulder and smiled. "I promise we will rescue Sprx."
Nova didn't seem very convinced. She stared at her feet and didn't even try to smile. "Antauri?"
"Yes Nova?"
"What does it feel like to fall in love?"
Antauri raised an eyebrow at the sudden change in topics. He looked to the ceiling. "I don't know." He answered. "That is something you must experience on your own."
"That's stupid." Antauri looked at nova as she spoke. "This whole thing is stupid. Why the heck would I fall in love with him in the first place?"
Antauri blinked. "Nova... you're in love with Sprx, aren't you?"
Nova knew that lying to Antauri was like walking on hot coals, so she simply nodded. "I guess I am." she said, turning slightly red.
Antauri smiled and pat her shoulder. "Well, then it may help you to know that love is stronger than the Power Primate."
Nova finally gave a small smile. "Thanks."
"Anytime."
