Almost done, almost done, for the love of crap, let's do this already!

/

Me: SUP PEOPLE

Lily: The last chapter I was smarter then my teacher at something XD

Maka: What? Where? How? Because he didn't know about your unbalanced powers? …I'll say it as many times as I have to: Absence of knowledge does not equal stupidity!

Stein: I OBJECT

Me: No, she was

Crona: There is no possible way you could be smarter than Professor Stein…that would mean you actually have a working brain…

Nicole and Kidd: *Still sleeping*

Lily: What time is it right now

Me: umm 3:00

Black*star: Yahoo black mail *takes picture with cell phone*

Lily: Speaking of black mail we don't have anyone at our truth or dare

Me: HEY NO ADVERTISING

Lily: Sorry

Crona: But…didn't you-

Maka: Don't bother, if we just let it go we'll be done faster.

Liz: Black*star send me that picture

Lily and Crystal: Ohh us too

Tsubaski: Black*star…

Me: ok on with the story

Crona: W-Why is she even doing these long notes, anyway…?

Maka: More meandering and/or padding. Because this doesn't have enough of that as it is.

~the same night with Lily~

"Thank you professor Stein. Marie " Lily said starting home

"Welcome" Stein said

"oh Marie the tea was good by the way" Lily said leaving

She walks for about 20 minutes and runs into someone and they both fall down

"Oh sorry" She said

"N-no I'm s-sorry" The boy says

"Oh hey Crona" Lily says getting up and helping him up

Crona: …

Maka: …Crona? Something wrong?

Crona: …you're friends with Kim, right Maka…?

Maka: Yeah…why…?

Crona: U-Um…sh-she…has she…

Maka: …what?

Crona: Doesshehaveacrushonme?

Maka: …I'm sorry, what was that?

Crona: *sigh* D-Does Kim have a c-crush on me…?

Maka: …why…?

Crona: W-Well…i-it's just that…we've b-been running into each other a lot lately…

Maka: …Crona, do you think Kim is stalking you or something?

Crona: I-I don't know…it's just…weird how we keep bumping into each other…

"H-hi Lily" he say's

"You ok" she asked

"Y-ya"

"What are you doing out so late at night" Lily asked

"I-I Don't know"

"Let me walk you home I'm guessing you got lost" Lily says

"Y-ya"

"ok let's go to the Dwma"

They walk and talk and soon get to the Dwma. Lily walks home after saying bye.

Maka: …seriously, Crona, you have nothing to worry about. At this rate it probably won't even get mentioned.

Crona: J-Just wait…

~ok about 5:30 At Kidd's house~

Nicole wakes up and releases her grip on Kidd after realizing she had a death grip on him.

Maka: Oh, great, an OC winds up killing one of my friends again. Really getting tired of that happened, guys.

She also saw he was up.

Maka: …never mind.

"OH um sorry" She said

"I've been up for a while" Kidd said showing her a book

"I'm guessing you're like me you don't need lots of sleep" She said

"Yep"

"Well at least I didn't wake you up" she said

Nicole got up and stretched 'wait…. I fell … asleep with him' She thought and a blush crept up on her face

Both: …*blush*

"I'm going to go get changed" She said

She smiled and left to get dressed. She got dressed in regular white shorts, tank-top, and a jacket around her waist. She then brushed her hair and went down stairs.

"So when do you wake Liz and Patty up" Nicole asked

" 6:00 " Kidd said simply having trouble starting the stove

"Need help" Nicole asked coming over

"… Yes" Kidd said giving up

She giggled a little "Why don't you try waiting for a little" She turned it and 7 clicks were heard then a flame went under the pan

"THERE WAS ONLY 7 CLICKS" He yelled

Maka: …should we be making a list of all the times she's used this joke?

Crona: That'd take too long…

"Kidd-kun relaxes" Nicole said hugging him

"… fine but next time try making 8 clicks"

"Ok" She said "What are we having"

"Eggs" He said

"Ug why did Kidd yell and how did you get the stove running" Liz asked

"oh your up wait your kidding right" She sweat dropped "all you have to do is let it click till there is a flame"

"So why did he yell" Patty asked

"There was only 7 clicks"

Maka: What about all the times she explained the joke?

Crona: It would still take a long time…

"Well now I understand how Patty got it working all those times" Liz said

So they all eat and leave for school

"Ahh Friday" Lily says catching up to them

Crona: …there it is again. Why do I want to hurt pre-teens whenever this fic mentions Friday…?

"Crystal sill isn't coming" Liz said causing Nicole to freeze

" Bad words" Lily said

Maka: You've used enough of them already, so what makes right now any different?

Nicole just kept walking towards the school

Ok after school since nothing super happened

Maka: …goddammit, I know you're the type willing to give up what you want to get paid! So what's it gonna take for you to actually edit?

"Damn it got like 10 degrees hotter" Nicole said

"Wait what's it to you" Lily asked

" nothing just saying" Nicole said a shadow in the corner of her eye

Maka: Wow, fascinating conversation. It fits so perfectly with all of the other fascinating conversations had in this fic.

"Nicole is something wrong" Maka asked as Nicole ran off into the woods

"FREAKIN SHIT IT CAN'T BE I KILLED HER" Nicole said running deeper into the forest

"Nicole get back here" Lily yelled

Tsubaski shrugged and everyone ran after her

Maka: "Apparently the plot follows them around, so we may as well!"

~later~

"BLAZE DAMN YOU I THOUGHT I KILLED YOU" Nicole yelled

Maka: …wait, is it one of her "sisters"?

Crona: B-But she just said…oh no, they can come back from having their souls eaten!

Maka: …author, I was joking when I said that. I wasn't trying to give you ideas!

"Oh sister but you didn't. Nor did you kill Storm"

Maka: When did they fight?

Crona: P-Probably that nameless one…

"Did I not kill anyone else"

"Umm No"

Maka: Sooooo, everything up to this point has been completely pointless? …I HATE THIS FIC SO GODDAMN MUCH!

"Oh well I'm re killing you"

Lily comes out of hiding and does everyone else

"YAHOOO BLACK*STAR BIG WAVE"

"OW WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT" Flare screeched

"A taste of my soul wave length"

"Black*star What are you doing here" Nicole asked un aware of anyone behind her. Kidd taps her shoulder

"Huh Kidd? Wait did everyone follow me" Nicole asked

"Yep pretty much" Patty said

Maka: "We've done it every other time in this fic, may as well do it now!"

"… Thanks guys you're the best" Nicole said " Now let's kick her ass"

"No mention it" Black*star said and all the weapons transform

"Fireball CANNON" Flare summoned a weapon that looked like a huge gun

"Nicole were you born into a family of witches" Soul asked

"I've been asking myself that for 16 years now but so far I only have elementist sisters"

"R-right" Soul mutters

Crona: I thought we already established that these "elementists" were a different species from witches…

Maka: Well, we obviously have to keep going over these plot points because they're just so important, right?

"I'M STILL HERE YOU KNOW" Flare yells

"Hold on our fight for a sec. I have a question" Nicole says

"What is it" Flare asked

"Why did you turn evil" Nicole say's "You went away from our house when the witch cast the curse on our family"

"I guess it's because mom forced me to" Flare said

"Well have you eaten any human souls"

"No"

"Then what are you doing" Maka asked

Maka: She's wasting more of our time, obviously!

"Now that I think about it Mom told me if I didn't do this she would kill me"

Crona: …th-the mother's going to be in this t-too? F-Feeling faint again…

Maka: It's OK, Crona. She'll probably just stay in the background as the excuse for all these other OCs showing up.

"Then do what Me and Crystal did run away and PLEASE take away this heat wave" Nicole said

"oh right sorry" Flare said

It suddenly went cooler or well whatever the normal cool is in Nevada

Maka: So, no real change then?

"So what are you going to do now Flare" Nicole asked. They all had settled down and Nicole had brought food for everyone since they had planned to picnic anyway

"Wait aren't you mad at me for you know burning you when you were little" Flare asked

"Well mom kinda forced you into doing that so nope" Nicole said

"Umm Nicole where is Crystal" Flare asked

"…" Nicole froze and looked down

"Now's not a good time Flare" Maka said

"Oh that's right I know Lily and Nicole but that's it" Flare said "So who are you guys" She asked

"Scythe mister Maka Albarn and my weapon Soul Eater"

"Sup"

"I AM THE GREAT BLACK*STAR I SHAL SUPRESS GOD HIM-"

"NICOLEEEE KICK" He goes flying

"Who's his weapon" Flare asked

"I'm Tsubaski nice to meet you"

"I'm Liz and this is my sister Patty"

"HEHE BLACK*STAR GO BOOM INTO TREE"

Crona: …why do you people hate Patty so much?

"And I'm Death the Kid but you can call me Kidd"

"Wow weird name" Flare say's

"What do you expect from the son of shagaime-sama" Lily says

"Wait you're the grim reapers son" Flare says

"Wow for my older sister you can be real clueless" Nicole said causing everyone to anime fall

Maka: "Oh, gee, sorry I didn't know everything about a guy I just met today!"

Crona: …"anime fall"?

Maka: Don't ask…

"So what now" Flare asked

Everyone goes to see Crystal

"HEY LIL SIS SUP" Flare screams hugging her

"FLARE YOUR BACK TO NORMAL" Crystal screams hugging back

Everyone gives a WTH look and Crystal screams

"AHH THE NORMAL PEOPLE ARE GIVING US WEIRD LOOKS "

"OH NO I FEEL THE PAIN"

This makes everyone sweat drop

"Uhh are they always like this" Maka asked

"Sadly yes" Nicole and Lily say

Maka: Great, because we needed two all-caps speakers instead of one.

This goes on for a while and then Liz asked

"So what are you going to do now"

"I don't know if lord death lets me I might join the Dwma" Flare say's

"so that would make 3 Tempest's going to the Dwma" Lily said

"Tempest?" Tsubaski said

"Its Mine, Nicole's, and Flare's last name" Crystal said

"cool" Soul said

Crona: I think Soul was replaced with a robot that can only say "cool" over and over again…

Maka: That'd fit for a lot of these fics…

Flare looked at everyone then realized how close Nicole was sitting to Kidd

"You know something I sort of thought you were dead Nicole" Flare said

"Figures"

"Umm Kidd's your name right? Well I have a question" Flare said "What's with the stripe things on your head" this caused everyone to freeze

Kidd crumbles to the floor "I'M TRASH GARBAGE. SCUM. I DON'T DISSERVE TO LIVE.I SHOULD JUST DIE." He cried

Maka: …*head hits tray* Yeah, sure, keep using the same joke. Because it was funny the first twenty times!

Flare looked confused

"He has Ummm problems" Nicole said

"Can I guess OCD" Flare said

"Yep" Liz said and Patty was laughing like a maniac

Maka: Yeah, because most people with OCD act like that…

"So if I say stuff about the lines on his head he breaks down" Flare said loudly causing him to go into a worse of a break down

"FLARE!" Nicole yelled

"Come on Kidd you're not trash" Liz said

"YA TRASH GOES MEOW LIKE DOGS DO" Patty smiled

Crona: …do you people think Patty is mentally handicapped or something? Because I think she proved that she isn't when she was here…

"NO I DON'T DISSERVE TO LIVE"

"Kidd-kun" Nicole hugged him "You're not any of that. You're a shagaime"

"You don't think I'm asymmetrical garbage?" Kidd asked

"Nope quite the opposite actually" Nicole gave a thumbs up

"Wow she settled him down I was starting to think that we would have to have Patty scare him"

Nicole stopped hugging him "Okay get up Kidd"

"ok" he said getting up

Everyone say's bye after a while and Flare closed the door "Nicole are you dating Kidd"

"Y-yeah I guess I am"

"GOOD FOR YOU LIL SIS but why are you dating him? He's out of your leage" She said

"Ha ha ha" She laughed sarcastically "veary funny"

Maka: What makes you think she was joking? Because it's true, you know. He is out of your league.

"Aw come on don't you think his OCD is just a little annoying "

"Some time's but that's what makes him different" Nicole smiled "It's one of the things I like about him"

"And does he know about your yang side"

"Ya"

"Good"

Maka: "Saves us the trouble of explaining it for the fiftieth time."

Me: YIPEE IM DONE WITH THIS CHAPTIE

Nicole: Yep you are *Cell rings* Huh a text *looks at text* BLACK*STARRRRRRRRR

Kidd: Nicole calm down it can't be that bad

Nicole: *shows text*

Kidd: …

Nicole: HELP ME KILL HIM

Kidd: Yes

Black*star: Shit

Me: Hehe *throws black*star* Catch

Nicole: NICOLE-KICK

Kidd: DIE *shoots*

5 minutes later ….

Nicole: He disserved that

Crona: You deserve worse.

Me: WHATS UP

Nicole: Hi

Kidd: wow 15 chapters in 12 month starting last chapter

Soul: You need a life

ME: *Anime vain* What did YOU SAY

Maka: It's true. You do need a life, preferably one as far removed from us as possible.

Nicole: Nicoleeeeeeee-KICK

Soul has been d/c

Crona: …this is all happening on the chat?

Maka: Sure, why not? Makes as much sense as anything else.

Black*star: *Looks at phone* Hey I still have that picture from-

Flare: BLACK*STAR THAT'S SO LAST CHAPTER but I want a picture of the two together too

Me: SO I am going to say there is going to be 6 oc's in this story that don't bully or are on the bad team but only 5 revolve around the main 7.

Crona: *shudders* Do you enjoy doing this to me?

Nicole

Lily

Crystal

? You have to find out

? again find out

Toxin: MEEEEEE

Me: TOXIN YOU SPOILED IT

Storm: So what if she did

Me: I hate my Oc'c

Maka: That applies to everyone.

Crona: And if you hate them, why did you even make them to begin with…?

Wish: You now you love us

Both: No.

Me: ARGG

Nicole: Settle down

Lily: WISH WTH

Me: ARGG

Maka: While we settle everyone down enjoy the story!

Maka: I said that sarcastically, of course.

!

"So you're going to let my sister join the school" Nicole said

"YEP It will help pay for the crimes she committed" Lord death cheered causing everyone in the room but him witch in all was really just Kidd, Nicole, Liz, Patty, Lily and Spirit.

"Okay" Nicole said "Wait if I remember correctly there was 5 member's in my family that excepted the curse"

Everyone looked at her but she dropped to a crouch kinda like Kidd's with his OCD attacks but her hands were on her head "BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER THEM"

Maka: …you're not even trying to hide how overdramatic you can be, are you?

Everyone but the adults dropped to his knee's "Can't you ask Flare" Kidd asked

"YOUR RIGHT THANKS KIDD" She jumped up and hugged him and ran out. Lily followed

"So you got yourself a girlfriend" Lord death said " I APROVE OF HER" Her then said in his high squeaky voice

"Father…" Kid said

Crona: "Please kill me now."

~With Nicole~

"HEY FLARE"

"Huh what is it"

"One I was wondering do you remember the family members that the curse didn't effect"

"Well me our sister Storm and Crystal, You, and our coz Wish and Toxin" Flare said

"Oh by the way you got excepted into the Dwma"

"YIPEE when do I start"

"Tomorrow" Lily said

Maka: Hey, I forget…isn't this supposed to be about us? Not these people?

Crona: One would think…

Nicole ran back into the death room "Lord Death I had an idea but I need to say it with no one else in the room but people that need to be here"

Kidd sighed and him along with a laughing Patty, a bored Liz, and Lily walked out

"Ok 5 of my relatives weren't affected by the curse. We have Me, Crystal, and Flare. We fought Storm. But we just need to find Wish and Toxin. I'm positive Storm will come back so we don't need to find her. But we can do need to find the other two. If we can get them to come to the Dwma that would leave less people for us to kill. Wish is 25 she could teach if we find her." Nicole said "I think I want to find the ones that weren't effected by the curse it would make less pre-ketion eggs. They are able to not only eat soul's but power up as they do"

"I don't Like the plan" Spirit says

Nicole sighed and pulled out her wallet "Her pervey death scythe a picture of Wish"

"OK I LIKE THIS PLAN" he said

Maka: *facepalm* Why do you even bother including him…?

Lord Death nodded "So how are you going to do this"

"Well elementist have a different soul wave length depending on the element. So We go to the place Toxin and Wish were last seen and we use soul perception. "

Lord Death's mask seem to smile "OKAY Take the residence group your in and go find your family"

"Um sir in case you forgot I'm In your sons group" Nicole said

Okay Nicole walks out and tells the team everything and then says "To simplify it WE ARE GOING TO FLORIDA"

"Wow your family lives in weird places" Black*star commented

"Well wish Lives on a private island off the coast of Florida so ya" Crystal said

~ok they are in Florida on the island~

Maka: The transitions are crap, you all already know that. I can't come up with gold every single time.

Nicole wandered off into a forest. She is gone for a while so Kidd goes to find her(thanks to Lily). She is sitting at the top of a tree. "HI KIDD" she yells

"Where were you everyone's worried" Kidd yells

"Sorry I was hot" Nicole yells and slides down Kidd stares at her

"Kidd why are you looking at my breast's"

Maka: Oh for…can anyone make a fic where Kid isn't a pervert?

" just realized… THERE PERFECTLY SYMMETRICAL" he grabs her breast's

Maka: …*head hits tray* Fine…go ahead. Use the same joke fifty fucking times…I don't even care anymore…

Crona: …*hugs Maka*

"K-KIDD" Nicole seemed surprised "WHAT THE HELL DEATH THE FREAKIN KID" Nicole kicks him in the face "WE MIGHT BE DATING BUT THERE IS STILL A LIMIT TO THE OCD I WILL ALLOW WHY SHOULD YOU TALK ABOUT SYMMETRY ANYWAY LOOK IN A MIRRIOR" She realized what she did "opps sorry Kidd-kun"

Maka: And three, two, one…

"I'M TRASH GARBAGE ASEMMETRICAL GAR-"

Maka: *sighs*

He gets cut off by Nicole Kissing him. Soon enough he kissed back

She broke apart "I'm sorry I didn't meen it I just get pissed when people touch my breast's" She sighed "Sorry"

"Its fine"

"By the way Kidd… You have soft lips"

Maka: *groans* Oh brother…

Nicole giggled and they heard rustling Nicole right away got it to a fighting stance and a girl about as tall as Marie came out of the bushes. Nicole losened her stance.

"Ohh it's you we were looking for you"

"We?" The girl with light pink hair and dark pink highlights asked. She also had on a Light pink shirt with jean capris and no shoes. Her pink pearl ear rings shined and glowed in the middle while in the forest like they had energy in them. So did the necklace with a single pink pearl. She showed no emotion in her voice like she was goth but didn't dress goth.

Crona: …I have a feeling Raven would get annoyed with that if she was here…

She also wore dark pink lip-stick with lite pink in the middle of the lip. She had dark pink eye shadow that also had a lite pink line in the middle. " Oh you and him" she had the same tone all the time

"N-no " Nicole stuttered "There's more on the beach, Wish" she explains the problem

"Okay I'll help" She says her tone still not changing

"Is she alway's like this" Kidd whispered

"Look who's talking mr. Dressed all in black" Wish say's

"Umm Wish this is Death the Kidd"

"Ah the grim reapers son" Her tone the same still…. You get the point it's always the same deep tone only going down not up

Crona: Then why do you keep mentioning it if we should get it by now…?

"HEY EVERYONE I FOUND WISH" Nicole yells

"Good um what's her element, is it cool" Soul asked

Maka: …that "Soul Robot" theory of yours is starting to sound more plausible, Crona.

"AH HAHAHA I BET IT'S NOT AS GREAT AS THE GOD BLACK*STAR"

"Maybe this will tell you" Wish says and her pink highlighted hair glows and she looks at Maka "Your name is Maka and you like books. You're a miester and your weapon is Soul eater Evans."

"H-how do you know" Maka asked

"She has the element of psychic" Lily said quietly

Crona: …"element of psychic"?

Maka: What do you think this is? Pokemon?

"YAHOOOOO um Tsubaski what's a psychic"

"This" Wish said and a light pink glow surrounded Black*star and he went flying and then before he hit the ground was lightly set down

"THAT WAS SO COOL" Black*star screams

"Ok now to find Toxin" Nicole said

"Toxin too? Let me help" Wish said closing her eyes "Ok she should be in the andea's mountains"

"She can track people" Tsubaski says amazed

"Nope only my sis"

Maka: "You know, despite being psychic and all."

"Let's go" Nicole say's and Lily transforms and starts to run. Kidd follows on his bored thing. Maka and Soul follow somehow. Same with Black*star and Tsubaski. Wish levitated. They were soon there.

Maka: Yeah, because going from Florida to the Andes Mountains is just a short trip.

"TOXIN" Nicole yelled and a girl with short purple hair and purple jacket around her shoulder's turned around. She had a pair of jeans on with her hair pulled neatly into a bun. Her shirt was well light purple.

"Huh Nicole it's you" She summoned a sword that had poison on it away into the ground

"Yeah hi um we need your help" Lily said

Nicole explains

"YES YES YES I'LL HELP"

"Good because I sence a soul that we need"

"What?" Nicole said

Suddently thunder cloud's form over head and storm comes down

"Storm?"

Maka: Please let that be Storm from the X-Men, here to smite them all…

Crona: W-We aren't that lucky…

"Hello little sister"

"Why are you attacking us"

"Mom told me to… She scares me" The grey haired yellow highlighted girl said. She was wearing a grey shirt her skirt, that went to the ground, was yellow . she had a cross arrow with a grey cloud pattern

"Wait a sec she's in a daze" Wish said levitating up and summoning razor claws

"cool a fight" Soul say's but is stopped by Nicole

"Let my cuzin's take care of this"

"Poison whip" Toxin says a poison whip rising from the ground

"HA you think that will hurt me"

Crona: She doesn't sound like she's in a daze…

"As a matter of fact" Toxin said her whip tying up Storm

"We do" Wish finished

Storm growled and attack. While they fought Nicole turned to Kidd. "What's the date"

"12/1"

"Geez a month till Christmas" Lily barges into the conversation

"Yeah I'm surprised that the mall doesn't have any sale's up yet" Liz said

Crona: "By the way, isn't there a fight going on?"

Maka: "You expect us to actually focus on those?"

Nicole laughed and turned to watch the fight witch at this point was a fainted Storm and her cousin's looking at her. Nicole walked over "We should take her to the Dwma's hospital"

They all nod and everyone runs to the Dwma.

Maka: "See?"

~The next day~

"Ugg were am I" A Now awake storm asked

"At the Dwma" Nicole say's causing Storm to look around

"WHAT HOW THE HELL DID I GET HERE" Storm yells and goes under the cover's

All the original S.E. gang except Black*star who was pleading about how he would suppress god sweat dropped

"I CARRIED YOU" Toxin yelled

~Now after they speak to lord death~

Maka: I know you're not in this for the art, because no sane human being could call this "art"! I know you can be bought, so what will it take?

"Ok so my cousins and sisters are a team now and they asked if I wanted to join there team…" Nicole said

"WHAT" Everyone yelled

"… BUT I said no"

"Why" Soul asked

"We would miss you too much" Lily said

Maka: "We need to lord ourselves over someone!"

"also…" Nicole got dark lines on her head "Wish is now a teacher"

"SEE YOU IN CHAT ROOM" Lily grabbed Nicole's hand and ran away

Maka: Oh God, not again!

INSERT POINTLESS CHATLOG HERE

Maka: …*pokes Crona* Wake up, Crona.

Crona: I-I wasn't a-asleep! I-I-I was just…resting my head…and my eyes…

"I'm HERE" Nicole yell's knocking on the door

Patty awnser's the door "HI" She yells

Nicole sighed " What did you do to make Kiddo yell"

"DAMN IT LIZ PATTY IM GOING TO KILL YOU TWO" Kidd yells

"KIDD I'M HERE"

Liz smiles as Kidd runs to the door "LOOK WHAT THEY DID TO THE LIVING ROOM"

Nicole sighed and ran to the living room where all the furniture was on the right side of the room

Maka: *eyeroll* Of course…

"Kidd if you don't kill your partner's and let me put my stuff in the guest room I'll help you clean up" she smiled when he nodded and she kissed his checks. She ran upstairs and put her stuff away

~later~

"What's Liz and Patty doing" Nicole asked Kidd when they were done cleaning

"Studying there's a test in two days" Kidd said

"Well I'm going to make dinner tonight" Nicole said getting up to make dinner

~After dinner~

Maka: …you honestly think this stuff is important, don't you? That's why you just won't edit any of it out, right? You're really this egotistical, aren't you?

Patty is watching TV. Nicole grabbed a book and hung upside down from the couch. Liz was doing her nails.

"What's Patty watching" Nicole asked looking up from her book

"ICarly" Liz said still painting her nails

Maka: Bleck.

Crona: …just because she watches kids shows doesn't make her stupid or mentally challenged or anything…

Kidd walked in and sat by Nicole who was still hanging upside down "Please don't sit like that" Kidd asked

"Why" Nicole asked

"It makes you Asymmetrical" He said

She smiled rolled her eyes and sat up. She put her head on Kidd's shoulder. Liz sighed "PATTY DO WE HAVE TO WATCH THIS"

Nicole laughed and Patty giggled "NOPE"

"Well I'm going to go take a bath k" Nicole said getting up

"OK" Patty giggled and she went upstair's

Soon enough Nicole was out of the bath and she walked to Kidd's room.

Maka: *hits head repeatedly on tray* I can't take this anymore! Please, for the love of everything sacred, edit!

Crona: …*pats Maka's back*

"Hello Kidd you asleep"

"No come in" he called and she walked in and sat down on his bed. He was reading but also had the Tv, which you could tell almost never was used, on the new's. the phone rang . Kidd awnsered

"Maka is sick" Tsubaski called over the line

"YEP AND ALL OF US ARE OVER HER HOUSE COME OVER" Black*star yelled and hung up Nicole sighed and got up "Get moving lazy ass" She said playfully but serous at the same time

Soon they reached Maka's house where they were surprised to find the team outside the door.

"Spirit" Soul said simply and Nicole sighed and knocked the door open. That caused Spirit to run over to the door

"I told you to wait outside" He said but Lily wasn't fazed

Crona: …u-um…he doesn't-

Maka: He has no idea what happened. Trust me, Blair won't tell him. I made sure of that.

"SHUT UP ASS HOLE MAKA FREAKIN HATES YOU" Lily slammed her way in and everyone followed. When Soul, Black*star, and Kidd tried to walk in Spirit stopped them

" NO this is a ladies room" He said and Black*star ignored this and walked in

Nicole walked over and Kicked spirit so hard he fainted.

Maka: …*sigh* It's just not the same when a useless OC does it.

Kidd looked shocked. "Wonder what he'll say when he wakes up" He said

"Screw what he say's" Nicole said shocking everyone "When one of my friends are sick I can't hold In what I'm thinking"

Crona: …*blush* N-No comment…

Maka: *hugs Crona*

Ok now they all are home and Nicole crawled into bed with Kidd

Maka: …this is a call for help, isn't it? You want me to get so enraged that I hunt you down and kill you, don't you? Please tell me there's a legitimate reason for doing this!

"I'm going to sleep with you again" Nicole whispered causing him to blush

Maka: It would be so easy to quote that out of context, but I like to think I'm better than that.

"Ok" He said

Nicole lied so close her body touched his.

"Hey Nicole I have a question"

"Hmm"

"You always talk about your mom but not your dad" Kidd pointed out

"Don't know him" She said simply

"Huh"

"Mom probably just did it at some random hotel with a random man." Nicole sighed "She did that a lot"

Crona: …no comment…

Maka: *hugs Crona*

"Your mom is worse then Maka's dad"

Maka: No shit!

"Ya… I hate her"

"You have a reason to"

"I guess" Then she fell asleep

He soon followed

~Three hours later~

They both woke up at the same time, oddly, and Nicole went to get ready Liz came in and Nicole relized it was time to go

At school….

They were dissecting today and Nicole got a note on her desk

Maka: Oh, here we go…

Maka: …*pokes Crona*

Crona: I-I'm awake! I-I mean…

Maka: You can take a nap at home when we're done if you have to. But right now, I need you to help me get through all of this, OK?

Crona: …sorry…

Maka: It's alright.

Me: OOOOoookaaaaaayyyy DON'T READ THIS PART IF YOU DON'T LIKE SPOILERS

Okay they are talking about Kidd's going to walk in on Nicole while she is taking a bath

SPOILER DONE

Maka: …the hell is the point of telling us what's going to happen ahead of time? Are…just…what is wrong with you?

Nicole and Kidd: …..

Patty KAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Nicole: DON'T LAUGH

Me: HEY I FOUND A WAY TO TYPE YOU HALF YANG FORM

Liz: Ok let's get on with the story …. I want to see the perverted part

Nicole: HEY

Crona: I really don't get it…what's the point to having these "chat segments"?

Maka: That's what I've been trying to figure out since this review started…

.

Nicole finished up homework in class and started to walk to Kidd's. She heard yelling and turned around.

"Hey Kidd. Umm aren't you flying home"

"Liz and Patty left without me" He said or cried

"Shut up ya big baby" Nicole scolded

Maka: Great girlfriend you have there, Kid…

Nicole grabbed Kidd's hand and started walking

"Kidd how long will you live for"

"Odd question but I'm immortal"

Nicole smiled "Than I have more things in common with you I won't age much" Nicole said

"Why didn't you tell me before"

"Well…. I don't like being compared"

Crona: Compared to what…? Someone who's actually interesting…?

"So how many more soul's till Lily is a death scythe" Kidd asked

"….. we need a witches soul"

"Really that close"

"Yep we failed once before going to school here too" she said

Maka: Not what we would know, since we never see it!

"I failed 3 times already" Kidd said

"LEME GUESS your souls were all taken way because you destroyed thing's"

"….Yep"

Nicole and Kidd talked for a while until they reached Kidd's house.

Patty ran over and jumped onto Nicole

"Patty please don't kill me" Nicole said

"Sowwy"

"It's ok"

She got off of Nicole and giggled. Nicole sighed and stood up. She walked inside the house and set her stuff down. She ran outside and climbed a tree with her book in her mouth. She reached the top and sat down and opened her book. She read for a while then heard Patty.

"NICKY-CHAN WHERE ARE YOU"

"UP HERE" she jumped down "WHY

" Liz-chan want's you to cook"

Nicole smiles and walk's into the kitchen. She cook's dinner and they eat (yep im lazy)

Maka: *fake gasp* Nooooooo! You, lazy? Perish the thought!

"I'm going to go get ready for bed k" Nicole say's going up stairs and running bath water

~else were~

Lily sighed and walked over to the dwma's dorm. She knocked on one of the door's.

"Crona it's me Lily"

"C-come in" the Pink haired boy said. Lily usually hung out with Crona and even had befriended Ragnarok, with food.

Crona: *shudder* I al-almost forgot about this…

Ragnarok appeared "Did you bring food"

"Yep I brought you candy too" She handed Ragnarok the food he gobbled it down and returned to Crona's back. Lily handed Crona his food and they both sat down in the middle of the floor and ate.

"So what are you doing for Christmas?" Lily asked

"S-stay here. W-why?" He stuttered

"That's boring" Lily muttered

After a while of talking Lily said "You know Nicole's cousin is a teacher now"

"I don't know how to deal with a new teacher" Crona said going into his corner

Lily sighed and went over "It's ok. Just thought I should tell you"

"O-ok"

Crona: "Now can you please stop talking to me…?"

~Back with Nicole~

Nicole looked out the window before getting in the bubble filled bath great a storm is coming she thought sarcastically

~With Kidd~

Maka: …I wish I was numb to this already…

"Hey do you know where Nicole is" Kidd asked Liz

"Yeah she is up stairs" Liz said

"Thanks" Kidd said and walked up the stairs

Kidd walked into the guest room. He noticed that the bathroom door was open

"Nicole you in here" Kidd called as he walked in the bath room

"huh KIDD GET OUT I'M TAKING A BATH" Nicole yelled turning around only to realize he mistake to herself

"Nicole you didn't tell me you were this scarred up" Kidd said noticing all the scares on her back

"It's from my mom's whip" She said

"Wait how do you get scarred" Kidd asked turning around to hide a blush

"They kept hitting me in the same spot" Nicole said standing up and wrapping a towel around her

Maka: …I think this conversation is making my brain hurt…

Crona: Likewise…

"Luckly I already washed my hair and body so I can get out" She muttered " Um Kidd"

"hmmm"

"GET THE HELL OUT"

"Okay" he ran out rather fast and she got into her pj's. Liz came in

"Okay what happened with you two. Kidd came out blushing like an idiot and I think he was about to have a nose bleed" Liz commented

Nicole blushed a little and handed Liz a hair brush "Can you please brush"

Liz started to brush.

"He walked in on me while I was bathing" Nicole said

"Really!"

Crona: Ah! An exclamation point!

Maka: Oh my God! Punctuation! Progress! Finally!

"Ya but I don't think he knew I was bathing "

Maka: No! Wait! Come back, punctuation! We won't hurt you! Pleeeeease come back!

Nicole commented but Liz noticed she nervously had looked out the window at the storm coming.

"Good we know Kidd isn't becoming a pervet anytime soon"

Maka: Not according to every other fanfic author out there…

"Yeah buti had to screech at him to get out" Nicole muttered

Liz put her arms in the air "YES BLACK MAIL"

"Please don't tell anyone. It's embarsing"

" Okay I won't"

"PROMISE"

"… Yeah I promise"

"Good well I'll see you tomorrow" Nicole said grabbing a pillow

"Ok… Wait what are you doing"

"I'm going to go hit Kidd with this pillow for walking in on me"

"YES"

Maka: Wrong Thompson again.

Nicole walks over to Kidd's room. "Can I come in"

"Sure" He called

She enter and walked over to him. She sat down next to him then hit him in the head with the pillow. HARD

Maka: Well, you must've killed him if you hit him so hard that it was in all-caps. And again, can you OCs stop killing my friends?

"What was that for"

"Walking in on me"

"Done hitting me" he asked

"Yep" She said but then a big crack of thunder struck causing her to jump

"Wow your jumpy" He said

"It's the storm" Nicole said lieing next to him hugging him tightly

"Let me guess a terrible child hood experience made you afraid of storms" he said not bothered by how tight her hug was

Crona: I guess Kid's as tired of all the dark background information as we are…

"Uh-hu. When mom made storm evil storm would attack me. Every time she attacked I heard thunder" She explained

"That could explain it" He said handing her the book she left in his room last night. She accepted it and started to read it but Kidd felt her body tense up on every clap of thunder. But she was soon asleep. Kidd grabbed her book and put it on her nightstand next to the bed. So it was symmetrical he put his book on his as well and fell asleep too.

~With Liz~

Liz sighed and walked over to Kidd's room with Patty. They needed to barrow one of his credit-card's for tomorrow. Patty jumped in the room and Liz followed but cupped Patty's mouth and pulled her out when she saw the two asleep together

~The next morning~

Maka: *twitch* Just explain why you're doing this! I'm on the verge of getting an aneurysm here!

"So how long have you and Nicole been sleeping together" Liz asked Kidd

"H-how do you know" Nicole asked as she came into the room

"I came in last night to get a credit-card from Kidd and you two had both fallen asleep" Liz said

"Wait why" Kidd asked

"For Christmas shopping" Liz said

"OH can I come" Nicole asked

"Sure" Liz smiled

"We were planning to take everyone out shopping anyway well girl wise" Patty said coming in

"When did I agree to this" Kidd asked

"I'll get you something symmetrical and two of them to match" Nicole said

"Deal" Kidd said

Nicole smiled and whispered "I'll make sure they don't bankrupt you"

He sighed "Thank you"

"Well let's get to school it's the test today and Friday THANK shagaime-sama" Nicole said

Crona: Seriously, why do I want to hurt kids whenever I hear the word "Friday"…? It's starting to disturb me a bit…

At school…..

"Ok class I'm Wish I will be watching your exam's" Wish yelled but same as always's her voice didn't change tone much

"Ok umm where is Sid" Lily yelled

"Somehow the zombie got sick" She muttered

Maka: …ooooookay.

"OH and This idiot was caught sneaking to get the test. And Soul Sid told me about your 'habits' " Wish said pointing to Black*star

Maka: …weren't we done with the blatant ripoffs?

Crona: Should've known it wouldn't last…

Everyone started there test. Nicole, Maka, Lily, and Tsubaski were all working hard on their tests. Kidd was stuck on the 'd' in death. Patty and Crystal were making 3-d figures. And Crona was being Crona.

Maka: And just what is that supposed to mean?

Crona: Sh-She was probably too lazy to think of anything for me…

Maka: …wouldn't surprise me…

An hour later….

"Did you get past your name" Nicole asked Kidd

"I only got 1 question done" Kidd muttered

"Nicole what's it like to date Mr. OCD" Soul asked

"Well he can be a pain in the ass"

"HEY I RESENT THAT" Kidd yelled

"You know I love you" Nicole said hugging him "But at other time's he's really nice"

"yeah but he's a little boring" Soul said

"NICOLE KICK"

Maka: Yay, random violence!

"So who want's to come Christmas shopping with up" Liz asked and all the girls on the team raised their hand and they started to walk to the mall after saying by to everyone

888888888888888888888888

Black*star: WHY DID KIDD GET TO WALK IN ON A PRETTY GIRL BATHING WHY CANT IT BE ME DAMN IT

Nicole: Hi people Nicky really doesn't want to talk right now she um let's say is in a bad mood

Me: bad mood. BAD MOOD. IM NOT IN A BAD MOOD IM FREAKIN PISSED

Maka: Join the club.

Black*star: IS IT BECAUSE I HAVE SUPREST GOOD

Maka: …I…am I seeing this?

Crona: She did a timeskip in the chatlog…

Maka: …this is like laziness Nirvana! It's almost impressive in its sheer sloth!

Me: I feel much better now soooo lets start the story…

Soul: FINALLY!

Me: NICKY-CHOP

Soul: *is hit in head with laptop*

Maka: Oh, hey, thanks for the idea for when I finally find you!

.

Lily sighed. It had been a week since Nicole left the house and Toxin, Storm, and Wish were moving out tomarrow.

Maka: OK, you know what? No. We're not doing this. We're not going through yet another debate about Crona's sex. Fast-forward through this. Now!

SKIPS PAST REST OF POINTLESS CHATLOG

Maka: Thank you.

Lily sighed and Walked over to the Dwma Dorms. Knocking on Crona's door she smiled as he opened the door and let her in. She handed Ragnorok the food and he gobbled it up. Lily sighed and asked Crona

"Want to go to the park"

"I-I don't think I can deal with park's"

"I'll show you how to ok?"

"Ok"

Crona: I actually like going to the park…

They walk to the park

"See it's ok"

"Y-y-ya"

"Crona YOU BRAT I NEVER AGREED TO THIS" Ragnorok screamed coming out

Lily sighed and gave Ragnorok some candy causing him to say "Ok Never mind if you give me more candy"

"Ragnorok…." Crona cried as Lily threw him some more candy which he ate

"Good Black Blooded sword" Lily praised patting Ragnorok on the head

"HEY YOU BRAT"

Lily smiled and said "If you go back into Crona's back I'll make you a cake"

".. I'm out of here losser's" He said going into Crona's back

"So what do you want to do" Lily asked poking Crona

"I-I-I Don't know"

"How about we walk through the wood's" Lily asked

"I-I think I can deal with that"

Maka: Smart move, Crona. No one will ever find her body there…

Crona smiles and follows Lily

They walk for a while

"Nicole's coming home today"

"G-Good"

Ragnorok come out "JUST TELL HER DAMN IT"

"N-no"

"Fine Lily Crona has a crush on you"

"Really"

Crona: N-No, Ragnarok's just making it up!

"I-I Don't know how to deal with my secret being revealed" Crona cried

"Crona it's ok" Lily said

"Na uh you won't wana be my friend"

Lily sighed and sat him down "and why wouldn't I"

"Be-because you know"

Crona: …

Maka: …Crona? You OK?

Crona: J-Just…don't like this…

Maka: *hugs Crona*

Lily smiled "Nope. In fact I feel the same"

"YES A GOOD COOK LIKE'S CRONA" Ragnorok screamed

"R-r-r-r-really" Crona asked

"YEP"

Lily kissed his forehead causing him to blush slightly

Crona: And now I need to wash my face when I get home…

"I Don't know how to d-deal with being kissed" Crona said still blushing

Lily smiled and helped him up

~An hour later~

"I'll see you later Crona"

"Ok"

Maka: *pats Crona's back* Just like getting a shot, Crona. Over before you know it.

Crona: …what about me getting shot?

Maka: Never mind…

~Now with Nicole the next day yep Lily is done for now~

Nicole walked around to shit it's raining damn it she thought

She takes cover in an ally but then hears a faint meowing. She bends down and sees a kitten under a trash can. It was pure black except for a few speckles on its fur and that was silver. Some more speckles were bright yellow? It's eye's where a light shade of heather. Nicole sighed and gave the half-starved kitten some of her bread from her lunch and gave it to the kitten.

Maka: Cats are carnivores, it shouldn't be eating bread.

Then she picked it up and ran home.

"I'm HOME" Nicole yelled and Crystal ran to the door

"OH A KITTEN YAY"

"Ya I found it on the street" Nicole said getting some wrappings out to cover some of the kittens wounds. Then giving it milk.

" What should we name it" Lily asked

"MIDNIGHT MIDNIGHT" Crystal yelled

"No that's a tera- Wait that's a good name" Lily said

Maka: No, you were right the first time, it's a terrible name.

Nicole smiled and looked at the storm outside and froze at the sound of thunder then then turned on her tv and feel asleep.

.

Nicole walks to school the next day and sits in her normal spot

"HEY BLINDY"

Crona: You know, if you want to insult her, you could always call her "psycho" or "emo"…at least those would be accurate…

"Ya"

"Whats up" Becca said

" Ok what do you want" Nicole says her eye's emptiely looking at them

"We wana know how the hell you got a boyfriend before we did" Becca said

Maka: "I'm a Sue and the protagonist, while you're just here to be the token bullies. Put two and two together."

"…." Nicole then started to laugh "If you look in the mirrior you see what you seems like Goddeses. What I see in you are two bitches that don't know how to be nice" Causing lily to hit her in the head

"Yeah yeah well mabey you should go and fuc-" Clear didn't finih her sentence before she realized that Nicole's nail's were clawing marks into the desk

"Is she making you mad ass hole" Becca sneered

"I AM FREAKIN OUT OF HERE" Nicole said

Crona: …why is she the one getting mad? She's the one who put them down…

Maka: She's schizophrenic, remember? Or she's just looking for attention. Either or.

Kidd was about to enter the room when Nicole, who at the time didn't seem to sense anything, hit his shoulder and continued running down the hall.

"Lily what happened" Kidd asked going over as Liz walked over to Nicole's desk

"Kidd you might want to see this" Lily said pointing to Nicole's desk and then Black*star entered with Tsubaski

"Why was Nicole Running down the hall crying" Tsubaski asked

"Ask this Bitch" Lily said pointing to Clear

"I didn't do much but aggravate her and tell her she didn't disserve a boyfriend"

Crona: …no you didn't.

Maka: Though I have to love how frank she is with her bitchiness. "Yeah, I just said all that to her. So what?"

There was a moment silence before Lily whispered "Ummm Clear… Nicole is dating Kidd over there"

"I know who she is dating"

That caused Black*star to punch her

Maka: Oh look, Black*Star was used as more than the punching bag for once.

Then Maka and Soul came in.

"Yo Kidd go check on your girl Friend I think she is lieing on the roof" Soul said and Kidd knoded and ran out

Nicole lied on the roof and saw Kidd's golden ringed eye's looking down on her.

"You ok" He asked in concern

"Yeah She just pisses me off"

Kidd sighed "Stop acting so immature and get back to class" He said

Maka: Oh, they're just the perfect couple, aren't they?

"No I'm good" Nicole said rolling over so that he couldn't see he

He sat down next to her. "You sure you're ok"

"Yeah she only hurt me on the inside" Nicole said

Maka: …did that line make you feel sick too, or is that just me?

Crona: I was just about to ask you the same thing…

"That's not what I ment"

"Huh"

"You look like you have a fever" Kidd said

" I'm fine" Nicole said sitting up "So what are you going to do when you're done with school" She asked changing the subject

"Random but I'm taking my father's place as Shagaime-sama"

"Then I'll stay with you the whole time" Nicole said hugging him

"You?"

"Don't know really but I'm staying in Death City for sure" Nicole said smiling

"

~In the class room~

Maka: Just a little more…just a little longer and I'll be done with all these godforsaken pointless asides…

"Lily do you know where Nicole and Kidd are" Stein asked calling up

"Yeah Nicole got pissed and ran out and Kidd went to find her."

"ahhh ok"

Lily glared at Clear and sighed. It was going to be a LONGGGGGGGG day

~Back with Nicole~

Maka: *twitch* Just…a…little…bit…longer…

"Well let's get back to class" Nicole said

"Right" Kidd knodded

The both walked to class and entered sitting in their normal seat

"So Blindy's back" Clear says causing Nicole to get mad again

Crona: Do you need more suggestions…? I can't really think of any that can be said in one word…

"Nicole don't" Kid says holding her back

"Okay" Nicole say's settling down

~After class~

Maka: *twitch* This fic will not beat me…

Crona: *hugs Maka*

"Wow the whole team is getting called down… Soul… Black*Star what did you two do" Nicole asked

"HEY" both Black*star and Soul yelled

"SUP thanks for commin"

"Hello lord death" everyone but Kidd said

"So whats up" Nicole asked

"Well there is this mission I need you guy's to go on. In Hawaii there is an army of pre-ketion's taking out people. But only people in water mostly surfer's and since your team is the only one with a person that knows how to surf then you guys are taking the mission." Lord Death cheered

"Um father No one on our team knows how to surf" Kidd commented

"Correction two people do" Crystal said

"Who" Maka asked

"NICKY-CHAN AND LILY-CHAN" Crystal said happly

Nicole ran out of the room

Crona: …does she get offended by everything?

I am veary sorry to say this but I will not be able to update for a month or two. :(

, from Nicky-chan

Maka: …whichever deity or celestial being is responsible for this: Thank you.

*both then fall onto their trays*

/

The lights slowly came back on as Maka and Crona laid on their respective trays, the both of them feeling more tired, both physically and mentally, than they ever had before in their lives.

"I can't believe we actually made it through all of that…" Maka muttered.

"Me either…" Crona replied.

Maka slowly raised her head, staring at the screen in front of them. "I'm simultaneously impressed and disgusted by the fact that this fic has actually made me look back on some of the other things we've reviewed favorably…at least those fics tried to write a story. The useless dialogue bits, the romances for the sake of romances, and telling us that things happened instead of showing us all proved just how utterly lazy this story is…I think its laziness actually rubbed off on me a bit. There's nothing else I want to say."

Crona slowly sat up as well, rubbing his forehead. "Y-You pretty much covered everything anyway…"

Maka looked over at Crona, a small frown on her face. Crona blinked once he noticed it.

"W-What is it?"

"I was just thinking about what you said earlier…why do you think Kim has a crush on you?"

Crona flustered slightly, looking away.

"W-Well…it's just that I keep finding her wherever I go now…at the party at Kid's, at school the day you stayed home…one or two other times besides that…"

Maka shrugged. "Those are probably just coincidences…"

"I-It's not just that…she keeps looking at me funny…"

Maka tilted her head. "How so?"

"She looks at me like…like when Professor Stein looks at someone…like he's studying them or something…"

"…so you think Kim is…"studying" you?"

"I-I know it doesn't make a lot of sense…"

Maka frowned, turning away and leaning forward. She placed a hand under her chin, brow furrowed and lips pursed, carefully thinking about the situation and trying to find an answer.

"…it does seem a bit unusual…but I don't think it means she has a crush on you…"

wait. Maka suddenly thought. She sat back up and looked over at Crona, who was still looking down at the floor. …is this because…does he…?

"Um…Crona?" Maka asked.

Crona turned to look at her. "Y-Yes?"

He was a little confused as to why Maka's eyes were off to the side.

"Is this…" Maka started. "I mean…if this is because you want Kim to have a crush on you-"

The words were out of Crona's mouth before he could stop himself.

"N-No! Nonononono! I-I don't even know her that well! A-And she's with Ox…and I definitely couldn't deal with being caught up in that!"

"OK, OK, relax Crona!" Maka answered, holding her hands up in front of her. "I was just making sure…"

Crona breathed a small sigh. The two of them soon got to their feet, and started walking towards the stairs.

"Anyway…" Maka continued. "That does sound a bit weird for Kim, but I don't think she has a crush on you. She may not show it, but she does care about Ox, and I don't see her wanting to ruin that."

She placed a hand on Crona's shoulder as they ascended the stairs.

"I don't think you have anything to worry about, OK?" Maka assured him, a comforting smile on her face.

Crona stared at Maka for a second, then returned her smile with one of his own.

"O-OK…thank you, Maka…"

"You're welcome."

She better not have a crush on him… Maka thought as she moved her hand away from Crona. …wait, where did THAT come from? So someone might be interested in Crona. That's not unusual or anything! I mean, he's good-looking and all…wait, wait, did I just call him "good-looking"?

Maka quickly looked down, hoping Crona wouldn't see her face getting red. OK, just stop. It's just because you don't want to see him get hurt. Him getting caught up in a relationship mess between Ox and Kim would definitely hurt him. That's all there is to it. If it was someone else, it wouldn't be such a big deal…right?

Keeping her head lowered, she glanced over at Crona, thankful he was blissfully unaware of what was going through her mind.

I'm just looking out for him. Like I always do. …right?

/

*falls over* Holy. Fucking. Shit. I am FINALLY done!

I'm going to have to take a day or two off to recover from this monstrosity. In the meantime, I'm gonna have to ask you guys for help once again.

Yep, it's guest star time again here at EiCS: SE. So, I'm going to need you guys to find a story featuring…either Stein, Marie, or both. I'm counting on you.

And if you didn't send fanmail or recommendations before, now's the time to do so, since this fic is FINALLY DONE.

See you when I've recovered.
