Rumor Has It - Ouran HSHC Style

by mcangel1976

The grapevine is abuzz with rumors involving the hosts and people around them. I have gathered them together and I present them to you for your enjoyment... I mean warning... I mean pleasure... you know, it's whatever you want to call it. Who knows what is fact and what is fiction! Who cares what's real! (series of unconnected drabbles each less than 500 words).

15. Tamaki's Mushrooms

A/N: This is a request from AnimeBestie.

Rumor involving: Kyoya Ootori - aka the Shadow King, cool host, and vice president of the Host Club (although we know he is the one with the real power). Also involving: Tamaki Suoh - president of the Host Club and princely host, and comes up with outrageous schemes for his friends.

I have been wondering… what ever happens to those mushrooms that Tamaki grows in his corner of woe? So to find answers, I put my ear to the grapevine and I found out. Well, at least these are the rumors I heard. Two girls, one in Home Economics and one in the Cooking Club, told me that Kyoya sells them fresh mushrooms every other day. Does this mean the Shadow King purposely puts Tamaki into the corner so that he can make a profit? It is free money. Another source who chose to remain anonymous (he is in class D and you know what that means) said that Kyoya sells some mushrooms on the black market that have psychotropic properties. Does this mean Tamaki also produces drugs?! Gasp! And here I thought he was such a good guy. Wait, this means Kyoya is in the drug trade! Again I have to wonder if he sends Tamaki to the corner on purpose. Rumor has it that Hunny and Mori are his secret partner and that is why Hunny is addicted to cake. His cakes have special ingredients only for him. Hmmm.
