You bring the kerosene, I got the matches
[Natsu/Lucy]
"...What?"
"I said, you bring the kerosene, I got the matches!" Natsu reiterated, either not noticing or bluntly ignoring the fact that considering the blonde was standing right in front of him, it was highly unlikely that her blank look was one of "Could you repeat that I didn't quite catch it" rather then "Have you gone entirely out of your mind?". Because, in his mind, there was nothing at all complicated with the simple statement.
"I heard you." Oh. "What I want to know is, what for?"
"To go wandering in the woods, of course!"
"..."
"...What?"
She really should have expected that from him, really.
With a soft sigh, she decided to point out the most obvious problem, and ignore the idiocy of this whole venture. "But your a fire mage. Cant you just light the lamp on fire yourself if you really need it?"
"Silly Lucy! That would ruin all the fun of a summer exploration!"
She was very tempted to ask how, or just how this whole thing was suppose to be fun at all, bust kept her tongue in check.
"Sure, whatever." Taking that as a sign of submission, he ran off (most likely to go get those matches), leaving Lucy to wonder just what she was in for this time.
Word count: 228
Fail. That's all I have to say.
You know, this was SUPPOSE to be #17, since I have this slight OCD bout going in order, but... Well I couldn't really come up with anything cause the prompt scream preplanned arson. And seriously, arson doesn't go with any of the characters, cept maybe Natsu, and he doesn't need kerosene or matches. So, in an effort to get this out of the way, this popped up in my head.
Yeah.
OH YEAH. I just remembered. I think my word count is off. Not because I did something stupid like include the title or otherwise, but I think it has to do with format that I'm using (occasional perfectionist that I am, every chapter has the same complicated format, even though it doesn't matter at all when I transfer it to , and the only who will see the original document is me and maybe that unnamed friend (WHO STILL HASNT GOTTEN AN ACCOUNT SO I CAN ACTUALLY CALL HER SOMETHING OTHER THEN UNNAMED FRIEND) I mentioned before.) and what exactly my word processor counts as a "word" :/. Just be aware of that. I'm not going to bother changing it or anything, or even get the correct numbers for upcoming drabbles, cause I'm too lazy and don't like breaking rituals XD If ones wrong, the rest might as well be, goes my twisted logic.
EDIT: 8/23/11
I finally figured out how to reorder chapters! XD So this will now take it's proper place as number 17~
