A/N: Ahhhh I'm soo sorry for the wait. Being lazy School and a writer's block got in the way of updating. Thank you all for suggestions if you gave me any. Hope this doesn't disappoint!
Disclaimer: Yah, you get the point.
Oranges and Lemons (And the ABC's)
"What. About. You?" I said in a punctuated manner.
"Yeeeessss…." it replied.
I don't think I ever told you this, but I seriously do not like this…thing…Thus, instead of a song that fit it in some way or another, I decided on manifesting my dislike. Which is a perfectly fine thing to do. Obviously.
"Okaaaayyy…." I drawled, "How about this one?"
Before I could sing anything though, Ulquiorra interrupted me with a piece of devastating truth, "I thought you said we could choose."
I stiffened (hopefully) subtly, "Yes, but Aaroniero wanted me to choose for him." She. It. I don't know!
"But she never said that." was the darn espada's retort.
"It's implied…" I managed to say through gritted teeth.
"Just get on with it!" roared Yammy, "I'm fucking hungry!"
Snooooorrrreeeee….Went Starrk.
Grumble, grumble…Went the other espada.
I didn't do any introduction (since I was THAT irked), I just launched into rhyme.
"'Here comes a candle To light you to Bed
Here comes a chopper To chop off you head
Chip chop chip chop-The Last Man's Dead'"
Yes, there are six lines before those three, but I just wanted to get to the good part (and also let out my anger in a more positive way).
"Aren't there six lines before these three?" asked Aaroniero.
Err…What?
Grimmjow peered at him, "How the fuck would you know?"
"I want that rhyme instead…" whined Nnoitra randomly.
Instead of answering, Aaroniero just sang in its watery voice:
" 'Oranges and Lemons' Say the Bells of St. Clement's'You owe me five farthings' Say the Bells of St. Martin's'When will you pay me' Say the Bells of Old Bailey'When I grow rich' Say the Bells of Shoreditch'When will that be?' Say the Bells of Stepney'I'm sure I don't know' Say the Great Bell of Bow"
The thing goes on the explain that the last three rhymes aren't usually sung because its too violent for little kids and that there's a game that goes along with the song…blah, blah, blah.
Jerk. Stealing my place as a connoisseur…
Wait. How does he even know all this to begin with?
"Do I have to play the game, too?" it asked.
Quite frankly, I was done. With it, "Would you like to sing this one instead?" Without waiting for a response, I sang:
"'ABCEFGHIJKLMNOPGRSTUVWX Y and Z.
Now I know my ABC's
Next time won't you sing with me?'"
Grimmjow had his hands over his ears, "Fuck. What was that?"
"A song intended to teach young humans the English alphabet." I replied on reflex.
"They all sound the same…" Ulquiorra intoned (with a slight hint of marvelation ((yes, I made up a word)) ).
"You just realized that now?" asked Hallibel exasperatedly.
I forced a grin at it, "So? How about it?"
"I'll stick with the other one…" muttered Aaroniero.
Ha. I win.
"Can we eat now…?" groaned Yammy.
After a moment of silence, Aaroniero asked, "Ichimaru. Do you dislike me by any chance?"
I forced another smile, "Why would ya think that?"
I hate your guts.
Well. Not as much as Aizen's though.
A/N: Bonus points for the person who can tell me which form of Freudian repression was mentioned in this chapter!
Thank you lonelydream17 for suggesting the rhyme! (The website was really interesting.)
On a different note…I make these guys WAY out of character…
Okay...so I just realized awhile ago that the vast majority of the alphabet song got cut out...Fanfiction is hating guys.
