Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom – I never have and I never will, simple as that. All of that amazing creative talent goes to Butch Hartman. Nickelodeon just sucks, I'm sorry (no, I'm not).
Author's Note: Since these are just going to be drabbles, this challenge will be updated sporadically, with no set limit or deadline. They'll generally be one page long or however the hell long I feel like writing something. This challenge is for 25(underscore)foods, and there are a various array of foods to choose from, so this challenge will be nothing less than interesting. I hope you enjoy, and I hope that you continue to come back for more!
Enjoy, and please review when you finish! Reviews help me update faster since I know people are actually interested in what I'm writing.
021: Banana
Rating: PG
Theme: 018. Banana(s)
May 1, 2009
He peeled the banana, eyes trained on his hand that was doing the action of peeling. He didn't eat bananas too much, but after Sam's insistence (since he had been doing a lot more running lately) he figured he'd listen to her. Not that her voice wasn't melodic to his ears or anything, he had enough nagging to get the point.
"You know, bananas are a pretty phallic food. I don't know if that amuses me or makes me uncomfortable," he said, taking a generous bite out of the banana, chewing thoughtfully as he pondered over the whole idea.
"Ever since you learned the word 'phallic' you've been trying to integrate it into real life situations as much as you can, do you know that?" she asked, flipping a page of her book as she continued to read.
"Certain people like to learn new vocabulary and use it a certain amount of times per day or week... or something like that," Danny frowned, taking another bite. "Can't you applaud my efforts for trying to sound sophisticated?"
"By using 'phallic'? How is that sophisticated? Danny, pick another word," she chuckled, a small smile staying on her face. "I don't want you to be obsessed with bananas the way you had a fixation on cucumbers and peanut butter after... well, you know what."
"See, if you were eating this banana we'd be in that type of situation." He nodded curtly with a grin on his face. "Though, I don't think you have that idea when it comes to me, I hope?"
The look on her face was between amused and mortified, as if she couldn't decide on an emotion to exhibit and went with a cross between the two. "Oh, you want me to eat the banana?"
He looked interested until she leaned forward, pushing her book aside, to take a forceful bite out of the food.
He just looked scared, now.
"Couldn't you be a bit nicer to the banana?"
"If you stop using the word 'phallic' I may," she responded with a cheeky grin as she leaned back and righted her book on her lab while she chewed.
"Deal, but I have a better substitute for the banana."
"Danny!"
