Lemons


"You know what you remind me of?"

Silence answered.

"… Not even a little guess?"

More silence.

"You really aren't any fun."

Sigh, then, "What do you want, Rag-Face?"

"Tsk, that's not what I asked. But, since I know you won't guess… its lemons."

She paused in her movements, carefully removing the portrait from the wall, completely taken aback. "… 'Lemons'?"

"Mmhmm, lemons."

"… Why 'lemons'?"

"Because they're sweet," He said in a sing-song voice, "bittersweet. Like you."

"Raggedy?"

"Yes?"

"You're starting to remind me of a scratch post. And I am in dire need of sharpening my claws."


This conversation actually happened with a friend and this guy (who was trying to use poor pick-up lines on her) and for some unknown, unexplained reason... it reminded me of something Ragdoll might say to Catwoman. So I, of course, had to write it... only replacing certain names and answers given (obviously, LOL).
