NO CAPES!

By Bashfulglowfly

Just in case: I do not own Sailor Moon nor do I own The Incredibles or the very AWESOME Edna Mode.

Nephrite entered Endymion's office, walked over to his desk, and tossed another file folder onto a pile that was starting to lean like the ancient tower in Pisa. "Adding to your workload."

"Thank you so very much." Endymion's reply was dry indeed.

Nephrite looked around the office. Officially it was Endymion's, but all of the Shitennou had migrated into it to do their own work. They all had their own offices but somehow, they all ended up together. Of course, their wives were the same way.

Both Kunzite and Jadeite were working away on their laptops, but Zoisite was sketching. Nephrite wandered over and looked over Zoisite's shoulder. "What are you working on?"

"New uniforms for us." Came the almost absent reply.

"Do we really need new uniforms?"

"The ones we're using now came from her."

Nephrite didn't have to ask who the "her" was. None of them did. And none of them really liked talking about "her."

"Good point. I have to admit I forgot…or wanted to forget about that part." Nephrite looked closer. "But white?"

"Did you think I was going to put all of us in lavender?" came the less than genteel sneer.

Endymion choked on his coffee. "Mercury made this fabric especially for me. Lavender is the only color that works with whatever she made it out of."

"Yeah, to keep you from being brainwashed. Again."

"Then shouldn't we be using it too?" Said Jadeite.

"No. It only happened to us once. Our uniforms will be white. With dark blue trim."

Kunzite looked up from his laptop. "Don't forget to make a cape for me."

"No capes!"

Kunzite blinked. Once. "I've always had a cape with my uniform."

"No capes!"

Kunzite blinked. Again. And his eyes narrowed at the chortling coming from the others in the room that were not Zoisite. "I want a cape. I like capes!"

"No capes! And I'm making the tunics long enough that you'll be able to hide the hard-on you get every time you see Venus."

Kunzite spluttered and glared. Nephrite was sitting on the floor, Jadeite and Endymion were leaning back in their chairs and all three were laughing. He really didn't see why this was so amusing.

"I don't understand why you're being stubborn about this, Zoisite. Please give my uniform a cape!"

"No. Capes!"

"Then tell me why."

"I am following the advice of the fashion maven, Edna Mode."

Kunzite tried to recall the name, but he was drawing a blank.

Jadeite pointed at him, laughing. "You have no clue as to who she is!"

Kunzite sighed. "No, I'm having difficulty placing the name to a face."

Jadeite laughed harder.

Endymion took pity. "Kunz, he's talking about the superhero uniform designer from the movie 'The Incredibles.' And she was a firm believer in 'No capes' because they were a danger to the supers."

That had been the movie choice for last week's Movie Night Usagi insisted on but… "I…don't remember seeing that." Admitted Kunzite.

Nephrite got up from the floor, brushing lint from his trousers. "That's because Minako was getting handsy with you during that scene."

Kunzite blushed. She had been handsy the entire time while they were watching the old movie but since what she'd been doing was hidden by a throw, he'd thought, and hoped, no one would notice. Obviously, he was wrong. "I remember what happened to the villain. But I'm not able to fly like that."

"No capes!"

Kunzite sighed. "Fine. No capes."

"Thank you. You'll just have to find another way to keep Minako's seductions of you hidden."

More laughter.

Kunzite stood up and gathered the remains of his battered dignity around him. "You'll get yours." And exited the office.

"At least he didn't say 'and your little cat too!'"

Author's Note: There was a fan fiction story that I read a long time ago about Endymion's Crystal Tokyo clothing was lavender because Mercury made it brainwashing proof. Do I remember the Title of the story? No. Do I remember the Author's name. No. Do I remember if I read the story on AO3 or . No.

But regardless, credit to the person who originally came up with the idea that the color was because of making King Endymion's suit brainwashing proof.
