Ah yes, the first chapter with actual kurumois in it and them interacting.
I'm going to try to respond to reviews in the author's note up top in this fic. If it goes well I will continue the trend in other fics.
To SoulessAlpha: Yeah, the one-sided Gironatsu is sad. Likely it won't get resolved in this fic though which I weep about. I kind of keep making Keroro into one really big gay joke too. It's just a habit of mine.
Thank you everyone else for faveing and following!
Yet again Saburo found himself in the Hinata House, or more specifically the base where Angol Mois dwelled.
Should be easy. He tried to think to himself, I'm sure that once they're together they'll hit it off great. After all, Angol Mois was the only problem with his plan. Kululu already liked Mois so if he wanted to make a relationship work he had to get them on an actual date and get them to hit it off.
That was why he decided to do the simplest and easiest thing, just set them up on a blind date. A date was the end goal anyway, to get them into a permanent relationship.
He knew how Kululu worked, but he just hoped Angol Mois would agree to it.
They'd be a cute pair. Once they're together and alone things should be fine. Saburo nodded to himself thinking. He tried to announce himself as he stepped into the room where Angol Mois worked, the sort of headquarters of the base.
She was typing on a keyboard, not really paying attention to intruders and looking at a screen. What was most important was that she was alone.
I'm just so glad I found out the person that Kululu likes. Saburo sighed in relief to himself as he walked up to Mois. She really was a cute girl. Kululu was sure to be very happy with her.
He tapped her on the shoulder briefly. Mois looked up.
"Saburo!" She was surprised. "What are you doing here? Do you need to speak to Kululu?" She quickly tapped something to get the security footage up, to figure out where Kululu was. "I think he should be in his lab..."
Saburo smiled. "Actually I wanted to talk to you."
Angol Mois covered her mouth in momentary surprise. This was a rare occurrence. She spun away from her work and stood up. "Of course. What is it you need?"
"I was wondering if you'd do a favor for me." Saburo kept his smile calm, knowing that Angol Mois was very easy to con into things. Simply asking her for it would probably work. "I have this friend of mine, who's really attractive..." That of course was a lie, "Super nice," Another lie, "And a great match for you. Turns out he'd love to date you. I was wondering if it would be all right if I set the two of you up on a blind date? You'd have a great time." Saburo promised.
Angol Mois's smile dropped as she thought about it and looked unsure. "I...I don't know...I mean I don't really know who this is." She pointed out, "And I just don't know if I want to do it..." Never mind the fact that she was saving herself for Keroro.
Saburo frowned at her unsureness. He put an arm around her shoulder and tried to appear friendly. "He's a super good guy. You'll have the time of your life with him. And he absolutely adores girls like you. I'm sure he'd fall in love fast with you." Saburo cooed. "Just please agree, one date! That's all I'm asking! And then he can die happy."
He of course would keep pushing after one date if it didn't go well, but Saburo was over-confident and felt that if Kululu and Angol Mois just had one date they'd fall madly in love with each other.
Angol Mois sighed as she looked at Saburo's begging expression. Nobody had ever put her in a circumstance like this, begging her to date someone. New experiences are fun though. She was a bit curious what this guy was like after all.
A date with someone that wasn't Keroro was a once in a lifetime chance. And more importantly the aspect of a date wasn't something she was ever given. Better let that poor pekoponian guy die happy since I am going to destroy his planet after all. "Okay, fine." She sighed reluctantly.
Saburo looked over-joyed. Like he had won something big. "Yesss!"
"I just have to ask, does blind date mean I have to be blind?" Mois was confused. She didn't understand this pekoponian custom, but perhaps it was more of a universal one.
Saburo snickered. "No. It just means that I'll set up where the date is and who's it with. Please..." He wrote down the address of a small bakery. "Meet there tomorrow at 2 pm."
Angol Mois nodded. She hoped this experience wasn't too painful. But secretly she was a little bit excited.
Kululu was up next and Saburo knew he'd be much tougher to convince than Angol Mois. Luckily he knew Kululu's weaknesses.
Whenever I'm in trouble he'll do anything to bail me out. Saburo recalled. If he pretended that he had agreed to a date and just needed Kululu to go instead because he didn't want to Kululu was sure to accept the invitation.
"Yo." Saburo leaned over Kululu's chair. Kululu didn't even look up.
"What is it you want?" Kululu asked. Saburo only ever visited him when he wanted something. It was still better than Keroro though.
"I need you to go on a date with a friend of mine." Saburo grinned.
Kululu stopped working. That request was the last thing he ever thought he'd hear Saburo say. "What? As like a prank?"
"No. Just a blind date." Saburo shook his head. "Something simple."
"Well then no. Ku, ku, ku. Never." Kululu went back to working.
"What? Why?" Saburo asked.
"Don't want to. Why would I want to go on something as stupid as a date?" Kululu asked, "Don't even know why'd you suggest something like that. And before you tell me about how great this person is read my lips, I do not care. Ku, ku, ku."
"Actually I want you to go on the date because I promised a girl a date that I really didn't want to go on." Saburo sighed and pretended to be distressed, "I'm in a real pickle here but I can't just stand her up. She'll be so disappointed if nobody's there."
"So you want a substitute? I think she'll notice the frog head. Ku, ku, ku." Kululu pointed out.
"No matter. You can probably win her over and woo her if I was able to while putting in no effort." Saburo pointed out.
Kululu didn't look like he believed that. "I don't want to." He repeated again.
"Well you have to because you're my friend." Saburo teased, "You can handle this sort of thing. I don't want to be around her, but I think you can handle it."
Kululu sighed. So basically Saburo was asking for a favor to help him out. He didn't really want to go on a date, but if it would aid Saburo he was willing. "Fine..." He agreed reluctantly. "But you owe me one big time. Ku, ku, ku."
"Agreed." Saburo grinned. Setting you up on a date with Mois is my way to make up for this. He tried not to look to scheme-y. He had done the impossible. He had made both of them agree to a date.
He was sure it would all go smoothly from here.
Saburo didn't come to the cafe with them. He didn't need to watch their date. He wasn't a creep.
Kululu wasn't particularly early, but he wasn't particularly on time either. Still he wasn't late enough that it felt like he was ditching out. He had his pekoponian suit on so that things wouldn't look too weird, the only organic part of his body was his giant frog head.
Angol Mois waited patiently for her date at a table near the window. She liked to look out of the window and sip on some tea.
"Yo, Mois. What are you doing here?" Kululu asked. He hadn't really wanted to run into anyone on his date, especially not Angol Mois and what would likely be Keroro and Tamama between her.
Still, he sat down in the chair in front of her that was empty because he would rather sit at her table than some stranger.
Angol Mois's face brightened once she saw Kululu. She was the exact opposite as him and loved to run into other people while she was out. She was happy to see him. "I'm on a date." She replied.
Kululu looked surprised for a moment, then for a second some other negative emotion, but he quickly concealed it. "So I guess the captain's on the toilet?" He asked, "Ku, ku, ku. I have to admit I'm surprised. Never thought you'd actually bag him. And when you did bag him I assumed you'd be on a date in the toy store, not an...an actual location."
"Oh no, it's not with Uncle." Angol Mois merrily laughed.
This shocked Kululu even more. This time he couldn't hide his surprise.
"You could say, blind date? Saburo wanted to set me up with one of his friends or something. He begged me. And I thought, well you could say, you only live one thousand times, ya know?" She didn't know if that was how the saying went.
It didn't go that way, but Kululu didn't correct her.
"...Saburo set you up..." Color drained out of his face as he realized what was going on. God damn you Saburo. God damn you. I mean I applaud your trickery and prank, but still...He didn't take kindly to being tricked onto a date with his greatest fear.
"What about you?" Angol Mois asked, curiously. "This isn't a curry place after all." She pointed out.
"Saburo asked me to go on a date for him. I suppose the appropriate term is blind date. And...I believe I've just found who he kindly set me up with. Ku, ku, ku." His voice was dripping with sarcasm.
Angol Mois looked surprise as she gestured to herself. Kululu gave a slow nod.
"Ku, ku, ku! Pretty great prank though! I didn't suspect at all I was being duped." Kululu tried to find the humor in the situation.
Angol Mois just looked surprised. "So...Does this mean you like my type or something? That's what Saburo said..." She hadn't jumped to the same conclusions as Kululu, she thought Saburo had been putting both their best interests at heart.
"Nah." Kululu brushed her off. "We both got duped. Saburo conned us both into this."
Angol Mois frowned. Well, I guess I'm not doing a favor for him again. That didn't seem very nice.
"Let's call him. Maybe we're not supposed to meet up with each other." Mois was hopeful. She whipped her cell phone out and dialed Saburo's number. She gestured for Kululu to bring his head closer to hers so they could both hear Saburo.
"Hello?" Saburo asked.
"Yo, what's the deal, man? You set me up on a date with Angol Mois?" Kululu asked, sounding annoyed.
"Are we supposed to wait for someone different? Or did you really set us up with each other?" Mois asked.
Saburo smiled, "I helped you out." He responded, "Anyway, I have to be somewhere." He lied, "But have a good date! Congratulations on your first date together." He hung up leaving them high and dry.
Angol Mois looked irritated. Kululu did for a moment until he started laughing at the odd situation they had found themselves in.
"It is a little funny. You have to admit. Ku, ku, ku." Kululu pointed out.
"If anyone else had tricked you like this would you laugh?" Angol Mois asked.
"Course not. But that's because I'm not going to use the same trick on them. Natsumi should do the trick. Ku, ku, ku." Kululu sinisterly grinned.
He got up to plan revenge and leave that cafe since he was now no longer obligated to stay.
"Wait." Mois stopped him, "Are you leaving?"
Kululu nodded, "There's no real reason to stay here, right?"
Angol Mois frowned, "Actually, maybe we should make the best of this situation." She finally decided. She was out anyway.
Kululu was caught off guard. "The best of this situation?" Oh yeah, she's always so optimistic.
"I need to pick up some invasion supplies for Uncle anyway." Angol Mois smiled, "And since we are out, do you want to help me? It would be fun to hang out a little bit!" Sure it was work, but she enjoyed spending time with Kululu.
S-she...She wants to hang out with me? Kululu was surprised, but he nodded anyway. "I'm willing." He agreed.
There was no harm in spending a little more time together. He had taken the effort to go outside after all, no point in wasting it. She was right.
So he waited for Angol Mois to join him at the door and the two were off to go shopping.
Angol Mois went through the pekoponian shops on the side of the street corner trying to check off boxes of things Keroro wanted and had deemed important for the invasion. No surprise, it was all things he himself wanted instead of something important.
Kululu sighed. He had agreed to help Angol Mois with work, after all they were tech team partners and unlike her he actually got paid for working and it was his job, but this was boring. She was much more focused and devoted to things than he was.
"Over there! That's the important manga that Uncle said was like super super important for the invasion!" Angol Mois pointed and hurried over to the crowd.
Kululu sighed and rubbed his forehead. I agreed to spend time with her, but this isn't really anything like we're spending time together. It's more like extra work.
"Hey, Mois." Kululu wasn't the type to protect people's feelings.
Angol Mois glanced at him.
"This is boring." He said honestly.
Angol Mois looked hurt. "I-I'm...I'm sorry." She didn't want to drag Kululu along on her errands, "You...You can go home if you want to..."
"Nah, I just meant that maybe we should do something else. I did agree to hang out with you after all." It was a rare occasion to have Angol Mois outside with him to hang out without Keroro at her arm and he wanted to make the most of it. But this felt more like their normal work than hanging out.
"But...But Uncle will be super mad if we don't finish these important tasks." Mois reminded.
Kululu frowned. They weren't that important. He stopped Angol Mois and put his hands on her shoulders to relax her and stop her from running off. "Look over there." He turned her body away from the manga. "A video game arcade. Wouldn't that be a ton more fun than this boring task? Ku, ku, ku." Kululu pointed out.
Angol Mois bit her lip. That did look a lot more fun. She hadn't actually ever been into one of those with Kululu. Heck, she had never been in one with Keroro. "But..."
"This was supposed to be just a little get together, right? Have fun with me!" Kululu offered, "Ditch work for once." He loved trying to bring people to the dark side and stop them from being responsible.
"But work..." She pointed out.
Geez, I never would have imagined that she'd be so uptight. He was going to break that. Nobody could be more uptight than Giroro after all. He gave her a teasing smirk and an almost begging look. He offered his hand. "You earned a break. Come with me."
Angol Mois smiled a little bit, looking at the ground. It was the sort of smile that was only for herself, she wasn't making eye contact with Kululu especially since in his pekoponian suit he was now taller than her. That made her smile cute and tolerable. She brushed some hair out of her face and took his hand.
"O-okay." She agreed.
Kululu grinned and lead her away from the manga and to the video game arcade. "This will definitely be more fun than shopping for the captain." He reassured her. "Want to see me take apart some machines and change their programming so they're evil? Ku, ku, ku."
Angol Mois jumped up and down giddily. "Do I ever!"
Kululu grinned ever wider. Angol Mois was such a fun audience to have when he was being a jerk. Ah I love it when she's like this.
He dragged her inside the video game arcade. The lights were blaring, there was a lot of techno music, things like that.
Angol Mois gasped once she saw a transparent looking cage with plushies filled in them. "What's this one?" She asked.
"It's called the Claw arcade game. Ku, ku, ku. You have to move the claw around to win plushies. It's super hard and very tricky. I like it because it's a jerk to people, steals their money and they don't get anything." Kululu grinned.
Angol Mois grabbed onto Kululu's arm and looked up at him with the cutest and largest eyes. "But I bet you can do it." She stroked his ego. "Will...Will you show me?"
"You don't want to try?" Kululu asked.
"I want the prizes. Not the hard work." Mois pouted.
"Ku, ku, ku." He could do it then. He nodded and pulled her over. I do like showing off my skills. Things like this were extremely easy for him, it required a keen eye and hand eye coordination. "Which one do you want?"
Angol Mois looked like she'd just throw her arms around Kululu in joy. It probably wouldn't be comfortable since he was made out of metal. "That one." She pointed to a cute little bunny rabbit.
Kululu quickly brought the claw down and got it. Angol Mois giggled and held onto her new plushy.
"...Any others?" He saw her eying the arcade cage again.
"They're all so cute..." Mois pouted. "And...How can I separate her from her friends?"
Kululu grinned. He pulled some things out of his pocket called 'fake tokens' that he himself had designed to be the proper shape and size. "Since it's easy to win them I can probably get you all of them."
He had never heard Mois squeal before, but it sounded like a sound that could shatter windows. "You're the best, Kululu! You're the absolute greatest!"
Kululu smiled to himself. Not like I would have said no when you were staring at me. It was a date though and even if he hadn't planned on having fun with Mois that day he was fine with having fun with her.
He got her the plushies as people crowded around and looked at him with amazement. Nobody could ever beat that game without losing.
Afterwords, he inputted a code that made the claw game even harder for whatever sucker wanted to play next.
Angol Mois put her new toys in a bag.
"What next?" Kululu asked looking around. All the arcade games looked fun to break, but he knew Angol Mois had never been in one of these places before. "Which game looks like a game you'd like to play?"
Angol Mois pointed over to the dance dance revolution machine. "How does that one work?"
"You dance where the arrows point too." Kululu explained.
"Never done one of those! Want to play with me?" Angol Mois offered.
Kululu shook his head. He wasn't really interested. "I can cheer you on though." He offered. And he could probably quickly program something to cheat the game for her. There was no reason she shouldn't get top scores after all.
"Okay! Cheer me on!" Angol Mois gave a thumbs up and jumped up to the machine once it was her turn. Every time she glanced at Kululu he gave her a thumbs up as he reprogrammed the machine with a small remote.
She of course got top marks even if she didn't exactly know how the machine worked. She clapped and looked super proud of herself.
And Kululu in turn was actually happy to see her happy. She looked like she was enjoying herself much more than she had shopping for the invasion.
Although the two of them spent a long time in the arcade modifying machines to be terrifying sort of nightmare things, they did eventually get kicked out for blowing up equipment.
Kululu and Mois were laughing even though they were banned for life from the place. "That was great!" Kululu smiled.
Angol Mois nodded. "I liked the part best when all the people cried when they lost even though they thought they were winning."
"I liked when you blew up the skee ball machine! Ku, ku, ku." Kululu high-fived her.
"Oh please, you caused way more destruction!" Angol Mois complimented, "They were so mad at us." At least she still got her plushies.
She looked at the time. It wasn't dark out yet and they didn't yet have to be home.
"Anything else you want to do?" Angol Mois asked.
"No work." Kululu frowned and wrinkled his nose. "Ku, ku, ku. You need to do any shopping for you? We could go to a clothing store." He didn't wear clothing but he loved seeing Angol Mois wear it. It was fun to make her model.
And if they went to some place like a clothing store he could probably stop enjoying himself so much, and start acting more like his old self. Be just sort of creepy and perverted and not make this such undeniably a great date. It made him uncomfortable because it really was fun, not even he could deny he was enjoying spending time with her.
"Okay!" Angol Mois agreed. She knew Kululu loved seeing her model and it wouldn't bore him.
They walked along the streets and eventually made it to a pretty nice looking store. Kululu followed Angol Mois in.
"You can pick some things out that you want me to try on!" Angol Mois tried to make it fun for him too.
"How bout these?" Kululu of course took the opportunity to gesture at sexy underwear. He was a Kululu after all. "Ku, ku, ku. I myself think you'd look very alluring in them." He inspected closer. "And look! They're your size."
Mois sighed. She crossed her arms and looked at him. She shouldn't have expected any different. "How about something cuter?"
"This stuff is pretty cute. Look this one says 'Eat me!' You'd look so cute in it. Ku, ku, ku." Kululu smirked playfully.
She pulled Kululu away from the underwear much to his disappointment. Instead she dragged him to the shirt section and cute skirts.
"I'm going to choose something if you don't." She teased. She was sure he could probably find something sexy in this section too, that likely she'd reject.
Kululu sighed and looked mournfully at the underwear section. "Fine. This one." He handed her a rather large plain gray shirt. It didn't look that cute, but if someone could make it cute it would be Angol Mois.
Angol Mois nodded as he started handing her items, his mind going at a remarkable speed of trying to figure out proper color combinations and matches with his mental image of an Angol Mois model.
Eventually Angol Mois was carrying a lot of clothing and she and Kululu headed off to the dressing room. No matter how much Kululu teased her he was forced to wait outside to see her model.
He watched her come out of the dressing room and show him several items of clothing. Just as he expected she could pull off even boring gray shirts into a cute messy and tired look. Simple.
"Okay. I'm going to try on another." She smiled. "What did you think of that one?"
"It was good. I could make better." Kululu frowned. He took out his phone to play on it while she was in the dressing room.
He decided to finally answer one of Saburo's texts that was a simple 'How's it going?'
He was no longer that mad at Saburo's little prank after all.
"It's going okay." Kululu finally wrote a reply, "I'm not with Mois right now. She's trying some clothing on in the dressing room, but things are going mostly fine."
After a moment of thinking it over, he added, "She's pretty darn cute. But I'm not going to show you how cute. Ku, ku, ku!" He was enjoying watching her model.
Saburo of course was very pleased to hear that things were going well. It was all that he dreamed, things going smoothly after they actually spent some time together.
"Don't tell her I said that!" Kululu suddenly sent a panicky text realizing that if Mois saw his text she would likely read it the wrong way. He didn't want her knowing how beautifully cute she was to him. She would think it was a compliment.
"Don't worry. It's just between the two of us ;)" Saburo sent a winky face in his text. It annoyed Kululu.
He put his phone away and went back to watching Mois model as she went out of the dressing room once again.
After leaving the clothing store, the date was finally ending. They decided to end the day with ice cream and a walk along the park since Kululu didn't have to actually do the walking part in the suit. He could just program it to.
He put curry on his ice cream which was something Mois looked a bit weirded out about. She didn't tease him though.
Instead she licked her ice cream slowly with a happy smile on her face. It was very yummy and she had gained a lot of things from her fun day. Nothing that Keroro needed, but it didn't matter to her. "This was a fun day out." Mois smiled.
Kululu nodded in agreement. He couldn't deny that. What to do now? He was super glad he was not only in a pekoponian suit but that they were too distracted by ice cream so he didn't have to do things like hold her hand. That was what happened in normal dates, right? But normal dates also had perhaps a kiss on the cheek at the end.
He wasn't sure if he was ready for that.
"It was much more fun than any of my days out with Uncle." Mois admitted, smiling.
Although Kululu did like the fact that he was more fun than Keroro, he was a little bummed out at the reminded that Keroro still existed. Ah yeah, her crush on Keroro still exists. That sure made the date a little more awkward. He was thankful that the subject of Mois's crush on Keroro hadn't come up until the very end. Sure it was a casual sort of date set up by Saburo but he still didn't want to hear about another guy.
"Yeah. Out of all my dates this one was very unique..." The joke and the knowledge that Angol Mois didn't have was that this was his only date. Still he had mentioned it as if to compliment her in a way and re-affirm that yes, this was a date, and they were on it together.
Angol Mois looked a bit confused for a moment as if she had forgotten that it was a date. "Ummm...This was just us hanging out as friends." She awkwardly corrected, "Remember? The blind date that Saburo set up was just us being duped, so to not waste the day we decided to hang out together."
Kululu wanted to point out that that sounded exactly like a date, but didn't. Well, she's making it pretty clear that this wasn't a date. He never thought he'd hear such firm rejection. He tried not to look bummed out about it and her correction.
He recovered before Angol Mois could notice by stuffing more curry ice cream in his face. He didn't need to be bummed out about something dumb like that. Not like I wanted it to be a date anyway. He quickly told himself, trying to make himself less miserable.
"Still, I enjoyed it. So thank you!" Angol Mois smiled.
"Ditto." Kululu didn't say much. He was actually less enjoying the end of it and didn't know what to say.
They split up to go their separate ways, to home or to do some last minute work related shopping.
"So how'd it go?" Saburo was ready to get all the details. From Kululu's text it had sounded like it went pretty well. He was in Kululu's lab waiting for the details the next day.
Kululu looked bored and disinterested in talking about 'it' being the date. He was actually in a sour mood because of his previous rejection. He didn't get rejected very much when he had romantic intents because he rarely did, but that had been pretty clear rejection. And he didn't want to bring it up, dwell on it, or even think about it.
"The date!" Saburo clarified. "Did you have fun?"
"No." Kululu answered honestly, "And may I remind you that you duped us into being with each other. It wasn't a real date, and more importantly it wasn't even that thing called a date. We just hung out after we realized we had been conned by you." Kululu was being honest. According to Angol Mois at least that hadn't been a date.
What is a date to her then? Kululu briefly wondered. Cuz that seemed to look a lot like a date by any normal standards. Maybe her definition of date involves looking at fault lines or caves. Or people with the captain more likely. No chance to go on a date if it involved Keroro. No reason to even try.
"It was totally a date." Saburo smiled, "I made it into one."
"Don't do that again, okay? I know it was just a joke, but it was not funny." Kululu tried to clarify. "Neither of us liked thinking we were going to go on a date with each other. Especially not me. Mois thought we should continue, but I was very clear that I didn't see any point in granting you your favor. Ku, ku, ku." Kululu seemed to put more emphasis on that he didn't like hanging out with Mois, even though it was the exact opposite. She had been the one who didn't want to date and had rejected him. But Saburo didn't need to know that at all.
Saburo looked confused. He had just been trying to help Kululu out. "Course you didn't want to spend time with Mois." Saburo laughed briefly like he didn't believe him, "I mean with that giant crush on her it totally makes sense that you wouldn't want to spend time with her."
"...G-giant crush?" Kululu was cut off guard.
"I mean she's your dream girl!" Saburo bumped him teasingly and smirked playfully. "And it totally makes sense that you wouldn't want to spend time with your dream girl." He was sarcastic.
Kululu's eyes widened and shocked. Saburo thinks I have a crush on Mois because I dream about her? Suddenly panic raised in his stomach and mind. His face heated up. "No! No! I don't have a crush on Mois! I don't like her even a little bit! S-she's like totally not my type, okay? There's nothing appealing about her! She's so innocent and nice that someone like me couldn't like her!"
The denial that he spouted and panic he didn't know if it was more for himself or Saburo.
Saburo just stared at him blankly. Suddenly Kululu realized why Saburo thought he liked Angol Mois. Saburo had never seen Kululu's fear after all.
Oh...He's talking mostly about that dream girl thing. Kululu recalled. Suddenly he remembered that Saburo had asked him who his dream girl was and he had honestly answered Angol Mois.
Pekoponians, and well...Actually everywhere in the universe's definition of dream girl is ideal girl that you like. Kululu remembered. "Ku, ku, ku!" He laughed to himself. Saburo had totally misinterpreted. No wonder he thought Kululu had a crush on Angol Mois.
It has nothing to do with my behavior towards her. It was just a mistake. Kululu felt relieved and continued laughing. "Saburo...I don't think you understand. I don't have a crush on Mois. I said she was my dream girl, because I meant she was the girl of my nightmares. She's in all of my nightmares! Ku, ku, ku." Kululu laughed at Saburo's confusion.
"Um...What...?" Saburo was confused. Why would a girl like Mois be in Kululu's nightmares?
"You see, I am absolutely terrified of Angol Mois. There's nothing romantic about our relationship or interaction." Kululu explained, "Her darn innocent sparkly eyes...They're poisonous. They could make me pure!"
I um...I lost him. Saburo didn't understand. It was true that he had never seen this in action, but it was like Kululu was speaking another language. He was learning another part of Kululu, a paranoid part that he never thought he'd see.
"Those eyes unnerve me. And the nightmares started after she first..." Kululu cringed, "Stared at me while I was inventing something and then I freaked out. If she stared at me too long I'd turn nice after all!" Kululu was shaking, his knuckles were white. He honestly believed this stuff. "I've had nightmares ever since. She's in every single one."
"Ummm..." Saburo was just so confused.
"Ku, can't believe you were so dumb to think she of all people would be my dream girl, like that I liked her and wasn't terrified of her. Everyone else would laugh at you for that misunderstanding. But don't worry. I will laugh enough for all of them. Ku, ku, ku." Kululu knew everyone else knew about his fear after all, except maybe Koyuki. So he just laughed at Saburo. And laughed and laughed.
Saburo was just totally confused. "So...You don't like her?"
"Like her? The thing I want most in the world is to be the heck away from her!" Kululu said eagerly. "She's my biggest fear!"
That's a dumb fear to have. Saburo thought to himself. He didn't dare accuse Kululu of having a dumb fear though. After all he knew a cute girl couldn't actually turn Kululu pure.
Saburo sadly walked out of the lab. So Kululu doesn't like her. He thought to himself. He was disappointed that Angol Mois wasn't a working match.
As he walked upstairs, he realized how wrong he was. Kululu might not have been in love with her now, but she still had all of Kululu's traits that he was looking for. She was good with technology, she made an effort to understand and be nice to him and she probably liked destroying things. Kululu might not love her now but he has great potential to be. Saburo had the dawning realization.
He smiled. She's everything he wants and she likes him the most out of everybody else. They'd be a cute couple too. He wasn't just going to abandon his plan to hook them up. He'd stick to his dreams.
I am going to make them smooch so hard. He looked over his shoulder at the lab and glared. When they have kids together I'll force them to name one after me, because I am so going to prove Kululu wrong that he does like her!
Still he was unsure if Kululu didn't like her or already liked her too much. Kululu had said he didn't want to be around Angol Mois, but he had also said he was afraid of her turning him pure and nice. And that wasn't a fear anyone had. That sounds like he just has a desire to be nice to her when she's around and he's too dense to realize he likes her.
That and Kululu had texted him about Angol Mois being cute. It all pointed to him liking her.
Well and the very obvious denial. Saburo shrugged. It was a mystery, but he was pretty sure on Kululu's side feelings were already there. He just needed to prove it.
Kululu and Angol Mois were always the type of people to be in the background supporting each other, working together. They did enjoy spending time together no matter how much Kululu denied it. And despite Kululu's jerky nature and her kindness they were a little bit alike enjoying destruction and technology.
They were compatible and Saburo knew that he'd set them up together at all costs. It was the perfect match. Didn't matter if Kululu said no, he'd outsmart him.
You will date her. And I will make sure of it. Saburo promised.
Originally I was going to have Saburo run off laughing manically once they got to the cafe. But then I wondered why would he be there in the first place. He's not that creepy.
It's a big temptation every kurumois story or story where Angol Mois is the main character to have Tamama play a big role. But out of my two fluff fics he has yet to do much of anything which is really sad, especially since when Angol Mois things happen he's usually involved to ruin it. Someday I will use him to his full potential.
