A/N: Oh yeah, Zenkyoshi is what everyone calls their home. No, it doesn't mean anything in particular. I made up the name years ago with no Japanese experience. It kinda stuck. Takari chapter!


Background: TK and Kari have just started dating. Matt has psychic powers. Tai has control over fire.


TK stared at himself in the mirror. "You sure I look okay?"

Matt and Tai both groaned in exasperation. "Yes, for the hundredth time, you look fine," Tai sighed, patting the younger boy on the back. "Come on, it's Kari, she wouldn't care what you looked like as long as you didn't show up in your underwear."

Matt suddenly smirked and made a very suggestive comment with lots of innuendo.

Tai and TK both whirled around at him, TK bright red and Tai gaping.

"Matt," Tai spoke slowly. "Did you just say what I think you said?"

Matt tried to look innocent. "Maaaaaybe…"

There was a very long and awkward pause.

Matt took that opportunity to teleport away.

Tai turned, even-eyed, to look at TK. "Listen, just have a good time, don't even think of doing anything to Kari unless she comes onto you first, and be safe. Now that I'm done with the big brother talk your older brother was supposed to give you, please excuse me as I go hunt him down and flame his ass off."

And with that, Tai sprinted out of the room.
