Elves? A: (walking through the kitchen) “whirrrrrr” A: Nya? (looks over at the counter) G: (riding on top of the blender) Thiiiiiiiiissss feeeeeeeellsss goooooooooooddd. A: What the heck are you doing now? G: (hops down, turns it off) Makin’ skunk juice. Felix gave me a recipe. A: (lifts the lid just a little) *sniff* 0.0 (puts it back) Blech! Uhg! Oh god! G: It’s ready! A: Uhh! I can taste it! ....... wait. I thought the blender was broken. J: (waiting at an auto care store, playing gameboy) Mechanic: (walks in) Mr. Artukei? J: Wow! That was fast. (gets up) What’s the damage? M: Very funny, boy. J: I’m sorry? M: Ain’t no damage. You car’s in tip top shape. J: What? But... I’m supposed to be due for a transmission fluid change. M: Well looks like someone already changed it. Your transmission is in perfect condition. J: What about the oil change? M: Full. J: Wiper fluid? M: That’s full too. J: .... Allignment? M: Just fine. J: ...... Tire rotation? M: You not hearin’ me, boy? I keep tellin’ ya your car is in perfect... make that ideal condition! J: (whispers to himself) What in the name of Miyazaki? M: Boy, is this some kind of joke? later... at home... J: (working on his laptop) OK, here we go. “click click” (nothing happens) J: Hmm... “click click” (still nothing) J: C’mon. “click click click click click click” (screen freezes and goes fuzzy) J: Oh crap. (turns off computer) “beeyooo” J: Time for a virus scan. *whispers* One bishoujo. Two bishoujo. Three bishoujo. Four bishoujo. Five. (presses the power button, power light comes on but the screen doesn’t) No. No no no no no! --Kida’s room-- K: (reading Popular Science) “NOOOOOO!!” K: (ears perk up) Nya? (gets up, runs to the computer room) Otosan. Nan desu ka? J: T_T My computer’s broken! K: Oh. (looks at the laptop) Hmm. J: *sigh* It was due for servicing anyway. I’ll have to take it in tomorrow. K: Maybe not. (pulls a screwdriver out of her pocket) J: Kida, what are you doing? K: (opens up the computer) “CLACK!” J: (squeals like a little girl) Aah! Kida, do NOT demo daddy’s laptop! K: Dad, I didn’t “demo” anything. I just opened the casing. Everything’s still there, see? (shows him the motherboard) J: Kida, don’t touch that! You’ll get it dirty and break it! K: (rolls her eyes) I know what I’m doing. (looks closely at the board) Hmm.... ah! (takes out a piece) “click” K: Yappari wa. J: 0.0 (girlie scream) AAAHH!! “WHAMM!” K: (looks behind her) J: @.@ (passed out on the floor) K: *sigh* (shakes her head) 7 minutes later... K: (kneeling by Justin) Otosan, oki de. J: Mmm... free my men. (wakes up) 0.0 Hooba jiga wha? K: (holds up the piece) I found the problem. You just need a new memory socket. Easily replaceable. We can get one from Prof. Washu, no problem. J: You..... you what? K: I said I found the problem with your computer. (puts the piece in his hand) Just take that to Washu. She’ll give you a new one. J: (stares at the piece) ...... How di- K: And don’t worry. None of your data was lost. (looks at her watch) Eek! (gets up) Sorry dad. Gotta go. “Monster Garage” is on in five minutes. Ja ne! (leaves) J: ..... How did she...? Wait a tic. Was she the one that....? Kida!!

(pops up behind his shoulders) Bother! Bother! Bother! I am bothering you! I am bothering you! FX: Get out NOW!! G: (jumps onto his bed) Hey Felix, look! I’m defiling your sacred space!

FX: (chucks him out the window) G: WAAAAAAAAAA!! “SPLASH!!” G: (in the pool) Help! *gurgle* I can’t swim! *gurgle, glug* (sinks to the bottom of the pool) ..... You know what? That boy’s lucky I don’t have to breathe! later... G: (asleep on the couch, snoring, surrounded by chip bags, twinkie wrappers, and a box of oreos) FX: (walks in) Heh heh. Perfect timing.

K: (leaning over him) Gummy, what happened? G: (looking at the snacks around him) Snack gremlins! A: What happened to your face? J: What happened to your body? G: Huh?

FX: (on his bed, reading) “clap, clap, clap” FX: Huh? (looks at the floor) G: (has most of the paint washed off his fur but still looks a little splotchy, slowly clapping) FX: Back for more? G: (scowling) Veeeeeeeery funny. FX: It was, wasn’t it? G: That.... was.... without a doubt.... the.... most.... FX: ........ G: (instantly smiles) GENIUS prank I’ve ever seen!! FX: What?

FX: What was in that paint? G: It appears I have met..... my equal. (bows) FX: o.0 ??? G: I propose... (holds out his paw) a partnership.

--Felix’s house-- FX: (asleep) Zzzzz... “bump!” FX: 0_0 Huh? “rustle, rustle” FX: Who’s there? Artukei? Aisha? ......... FX: ..... *sigh* (lays back down) G: (pops up from under the covers) RUTH BADER GINSBERG!! FX: AAAH! G: AAAH! the next day... FX: That little rat of yours was in my house again! J: Ozz? FX: Him I can tolerate. I’m talking about that little grey son of a... J: Oh! Oh, he does that to everybody. FX: Well tell him to quit. That little prick’s workin’ my last nerve. J: You need to understand Gumdrop. I know at times he may seem tactless and inconsiderate, but he never means anything in malice. In fact, once you get to know him, he’s one of the most pure hearted and sincerest characters you’ll ever meet. G: (runs in with a lawn gnome) Victory is mine! “RUFF RUFF!” G: EEK! (runs into the other room, an Australian Shepherd runs in and starts chasing after Gumdrop) J: Sheena, go home! Gummy, put it back! G: Ai yai yai yai yai!! (runs upstairs, Sheena follows) J: Gummy, NO! G: Sanctuary! (runs into Justin’s room) J: Gumdrop Gregory Cat! A: (from Justin’s room) NYAAAAAAAA!! FX: Is that...? J: -_-\/ Aisha. A: JUSTIN!! THERE’S A DOG IN THE HOUSE!! J: I’m aware! Gumdrop, if you don’t come down right now I’m suspending your weed whacker privileges! G: Aww man! (comes out, starts running down the stairs, but...) Whoa! (trips and sends the gnome flying) J: Crap! (the gnome comes within an inch of the floor when...) “vwom” O: (levetating the gnome) J: Nice catch, buddy. G: Phew! “Grrrrr” G: (looks behind him and sees the dog standing over him) *gulp* K: Sheena! *whistle* Ikou! C’mere girl! (the dog runs over to Kida) G: Away! (runs downstairs) K: (petting Sheena) Ii kone. Dai kire inu-chan, ne? J: (walks over and picks up the gnome) C’mere Sheena! Here girl! (Sheena comes down and leaves with Justin) G: No! I had it. It was in the palm of my paws. A: (comes down) FX: Hey Aisha. You alright? A: I’m fine, Felix. I just can’t stand dogs. FX: Can’t imagine why. K: But mom, Sheena’s such a sweet dog. She wouldn’t hurt a fly. G: Yeah. Cotton maybe! A: I know where this is going Kida and I’ve told you before. We are not having a dog in this house. K: (ears wilt) Aww. J: (coming inside, yelling back) Hontoni gomenasai! (closes the door, glowers down at Gumdrop) G: What? I gave it back, didn’t I? J: No Gamecube for three days. G: WHAT?! BUT I GAVE IT BACK!! J: Just be thankful I didn’t take away TV or computer. G: Tightwad! J: I am not a tightwad!

The Question on Everyone’s Lips G: Hey Aisha! A: Nya? G: You get that thing I sent’cha? A: What thing? G: Glad to hear it. (leaves) A: ??? G: Hey ferret! O: *groan* -_- G: You get that thing I sent’cha? O: (flies away) G: ...... Hey Kida! “ring ring” FX: Hello? G: You get that thing I sent’cha? FX: STOP CALLING ME!! G: Hey Justin! J: Hmm? G: You get that thing I sent’cha? J: (thumbs up) G: Alriiiiight. J: (dials on his cell) “ring ring” Teshik: Hey, what’s goin’ on? J: Hey John. TK: Yeah? J: You get that thing I sent’cha? TK: Oh yeah. DJ: (on the phone) I dunno. Lemmie check. Hey Washu! W: Yeah? DJ: Have we gotten anything from Justin recently? --Okayama, Japan-- “ring ring” Tenchi: Masaki residence..... Hey, Wahlne..... No, I don’t think so. What’s it look like? --Neo Tokyo-- --AMP Office-- Yuki: Hey, I got an email from Artukei! Katsumi: So did I. Kiddy: Me too. Lebia: We all got one. Nami: What does yours say? Lum Cheng: They’re all the same. They all say... --Hyrule-- Link: (reading a letter) “Did you get that thing that I sent you?” Huh? --Outer Space-- --somewhere near planet Zebes-- Samus Aran: Ship, check incoming communications. “blip” Samus Aran: Hey. There’s a message from that Artukei guy. Haven’t heard from him in ages. Wonder what he wants. --Blood Gulch-- --Blue Base-- Church: OK guys. We’ve got a problem. I just received a message that was forwarded to us from Blue Command. Tucker: So what’s the problem? Church: It’s in Morse code. That’s the problem. So unless either of you douche bags can translate Morse code, we’re pretty much screwed. Caboose: Oh! Oh oh oh oh OH! I know! I know Morris’s code! Tucker: What? No you don’t. Caboose: Yes I do. Listen. Beep beep ticky ticky beep beep beep ticky beep ticky ticky ticky beep ticky ticky.... Church: OK, Caboose. Caboose: ...ticky beep ticky beep beep beep ticky... Tucker: Shut up, dude. Caboose: *deep breath* beep beep beep beep beep ticky ticky beep... Church: SHUT UP!! --Red Base-- Sarge: Listen up, dirtbags. I just intercepted a coded message that was sent to the Blues. Simmons: What’s it say, sir? Sarge: I got Lopez to translate it and it simply says, “Did you get that thing I sent’cha?” Griff: ....That’s it? What kind of message is that? Sarge: Isn’t it obvious? It’s a confirmation message. Confirming that the Blues received a giant killer robot programmed to destroy us all! Griff: ...... A giant killer robot? Sarge: That’s right. Griff: Uh, Sarge? I don’t think they have a giant killer robot. Sarge: And what makes you so sure, nutsack? Griff: Well, because I’m looking at their base right now and I don’t see any giant robots. Just rocks and a tree...... and their tank. Simmons: That because the robot’s probably in the basement, dumbass. Griff: Wha? What basement? Donut: They have a basement? Aww man! How come we don’t have a basement? --Outer Space-- --somewhere in the Heiphon system-- Jim: Hey everyone, we got another e-mail from Aisha. Gene: I still can’t believe she left because of some guy. A human, no less. Melfina: She actually sounds very happy with her new boyfriend. Suzuka: They’re engaged now, Melfina. Remember? Melfina: Oh, that’s right. Gene: That guy must be something else if he can put up with Aisha. Jim: Huh? Gene: What is it, Jim? Jim: This is weird. It just says... --Hamilton Station-- Felicia: (reading a note) “Did you get that thing I sent’cha?” You say Ozz delivered this? --downtown Metrolex-- Makoto: (looking through her mail) Thing? What “thing”? What is he talking about? J: Did you get that thing I sent’cha? O: I still have no idea what that means. J: I’ll show you. (picks up his cell) “ring ring” FX: Yeah? J: Hey man! You doin’ alright out there? FX: Just fine, squire. Thanks for asking. J: Cool. Oh, Felix, wait. I wanted to ask you something. FX: Shoot. J: You get that thing I sent’cha? FX: What “thing”? J: Good man. (hangs up) FX: .... Huh? J: See? O: I still don’t get it. --The Otaku.com-- --PM inbox-- Ozy J: “Did you...” Red: “... get that...” Living Doll: “... thing I...” Adam: “... sent’cha?” I don’t even know this guy!

How my message got to Blue Command I’ll never know.

Hey guys! Got back from a... very interresting experience at Dragoncon. For my first con (yes, I'm a grunt), it was pretty cool, and I'll probably go next year. One of the things I loved most about the con... let me give you an example. At one point, John and I launched into a random dialoge exchange from an episode of "Firefly." Now, most places back in "the real world", like a mall or a school, people passing by would look at you like o.0 "huh?". But at a con, when people walk by they smile and nod. They know what you're talking about! NOWHERE else in the world can that happen! I'm almost embarrassed to admit it, but... that place was my sanctuary. As I later put it to my mother, "I was among my own kind."

As I expected, I was up to my neck in Storm Troopers, Vaders, Fetts, Jedi, Klingons, Elves, Hobbits, Dragon Riders, girls in corsets, girls in metal bikinis, girls with cat ears, and goth punks. (Didn't expect so many goth punks actually.) Anime wise, I only saw three Inuyashas, two Gokus, and a Vash and a Wolfwood. That was pretty much it.

I could only be there for the last two days cuz of performances. But John (Teshik) was there for the whole weekend and he showed me around. We got some nice photos (which hopefully I'll post soon), got lots of free swag, and (the whole reason I was there) met members of the cast from "Firefly" and its upcomming movie "Serenity." Eeeeeee! *geeky squeal* But a lot of that I'll save for when I get the pictures. And yes, Deej, I saw the Homestar Runner booth.

Toilet Humor A: It seems that whenever I use the bathroom around here, there’s no toilet paper. Is it so much to ask that when you guys use up the toilet paper you replace it? J, O, G, and FX: ........ J: Well, you know it’s not me. O: (shakes his head) G: I don’t go to the bathroom anyway. J: Get out! Everyone goes to the bathroom. Even Audrey Hephburn went to the bathroom. G: Well not me. My metabolism naturally processes all my body waste. No muss, no fuss. FX: .... That’s disgusting. G: You’re just jealous. J: Well, then.... (everyone looks at Felix) FX: Oh, sure. Blame the new guy. How do we know it’s not Aisha or Kida? A: Are you accusing girls of not refilling the roll? FX: But it’s not me! G: Nope. It’s me! ^_^ FX: What? You just said you don’t use the bathroom! G: Correct. But I never said I don’t use the toilet paper. FX: .... What could you possibly use toilet paper for if you don’t even go to the bathroom!?! G: For making mummies out of our neighbors flamingos. What else? --Teshik’s house-- TS: (looking out his window) Aw, man. Not again!

Woo! "South Pacific" premiered last night and... we... KICKED! The show was awesome! If any of you have ever performed in front of a live audience, you're right there with me when I say it's one of the most exhilerating sensations. Your energy fills their's which in turn fills yours even more and makes for an unforgettable show. The applause, the laughter, such a high. I love this industry! I SO want to do this for a living! Sure, the anxiety wears on your nerves and putting make-up on every night can be murder on your face. But in the end, when you get that standing O at curtain call and get acclaimed in the lobby (and sometimes even WEEKS after the show's over), it's all worth it. Just knowing that those people came to be entertained and you just made their night (and possibly their whole month),.... *sigh* man. And I get to do it SIX MORE TIMES!! Wow! I'd go on, but I'm too exhausted. Left it all on stage as they say. So I'll just post today's webisode and be done with it.

On an unrelated note, I checked the articles page last night and I'M THE HIGHEST RATED WRITER!! And I've only writen 1 article. Yeah. One article that everybody LOVES! BOO-YAH!!

J: (sitting in the dojo wearing a traditional gi) “knock knock” J: Hai! Dozo! K: (slides open the door) You wanted to see me, otosan? J: (nods) C’mere Kida. K: (sits down in front of Justin) J: Ever since you saw your mother and I spar, you’ve been fascinated. You begged us and we promised to someday teach you how to fight. I know your mother has already shown you much, but I have yet to teach you the ways of the sword and the code of the knight. K: I’m ready. J: Yes, you are. (gets up and opens his sword cabinet, pulls out a long object wrapped in brown paper) K: (stares curiously) J: Washu tells me that she’s just begun to teach you high-school level academics. I guess you can call this a graduation gift. (hands her the object) K: (slowly unwraps it) .... *gasp* (pulls out a 40” bastard sword) J: I recieved my first blade when I was your age. This is a custom job; forged especially for you. Kida-chan. K: (bows deeply) Domo arigato gozaimasu, oto.... sensei. J: Sensei? Oh, cut the formalities and give your old man a hug. K: (hugs Justin) Thank you, daddy! Oh, thank you so much! ^_^ J: You’re very welcome. ^_^ K: (picks the sword up) What’s its name? J: It’s your blade. You name it. K: (stares at the sword) ...... I don’t know. J: That’s OK. Most blades can’t be named right away. You have to know it first. K: Nya? Know it? J: Work with it. Get a feel for it. Know its strengths; its weaknesses. Then you will know its true name. K: (nods) J: And you’re going to get to know it pretty soon. (grabs a longsword off the wall) On your feet. Lesson 1 begins now.

I appreciate your comments.

"South Pacific" opens tomorrow night! Wish me luck!

--Rosevelt Park-- A: Licenses? Reservations? Grrrr! Who’d have thought getting married on earth would be such.... work?! J: Well, that’s why we’re here. It’ll ease your mind of a few things. A: *sigh* If you say so. Hmm? This place looks kinda familiar. J: It should. This is the park we went to on our first date. A: Nya? It.... it looks different in the daylight. J: C’mon. a few minutes later... J: Recognize this spot? A: Yes. This is where we had our first kiss. J: (nods) How about here? A: .... What? J: We have it here. We get married right here. A: Here? *laughs* J: I’m a romantic. What can I say? I just think it’d be so poetic. A: .... Are you serious? J: Yes. A: But.... don’t you have to be in a church or something? J: Not neccesarily. A: Wha..... but who gets married in a park? J: Lots of people. Rosevelt Park is famous for being the most beautiful park in the city. And as a result, weddings are hosted here all the time. It’s not that uncommon. A: ........ J: Sorry. It’s a stupid... A: It’s perfect. J: Nya? A: Let’s do it. J: Really? A: Yeah. We’ll get married at the same spot where we had our first kiss. Oh, just thinking about it, I feel so..... it’s so sweet. It’s like a fairy-tale. J: I’m so glad you like it. A: I love it. *kiss* (holds his arm) *purr, purr* J: *chuckles* See what I meant about easing your mind? ^_^

I really wanted to post this a lot earlier.

Kida Kaylee --Tenchi’s House-- (the door to Washu’s lab opens) Tenchi: Hey Wash.... Wahlne. J: ‘Sup Masaki? A: Hi Tenchi. T: Hey Aisha. You two here to pick up Kida? J: Of course. --outside-- Sasami: (hiding behind some bushes) ^_^ *giggle* Ryo-ohki: Mrow! S: Shh. “Grrrrr” ???: (stalking through the shrubs) S: ........ ???: (pops out of the bushes) RAAR! S: Eek! (runs away) ???: (leaps from tree to tree, chasing Sasami) S: (keeps running) ???: (jumps down right in front of Sasami) S: *gasp* Kida: (now 14, bends down and picks up Sasami) Found you! Washu: That’s 3 to nothing in favor of Kida. S: No fair! K: (ears twitch) Nya? S: What is it? K: I thought I heard...... daddy! (sets her down and runs off, Sasami and Washu follow) T: They should be around here somewhere. J: Kida-chan! K: Daddy! (runs up and hugs Justin) Mmm. ^_^ J: ^_^ .... 0.0 Oh, oh. Ow. Itai! Ease up. You’ll break your old man’s back. K: Sorry. Mommy! (hugs Aisha) S: Justin! J: (kneels down) Konnichiwa, Sasami-chan. (hugs Sasami) A: How’s my cub today? K: Great. W: We’ve just been killing time waiting for you. J: Washu. How’s she doing? W: (to Kida) Should we show them? K: Yeah! --Washu’s lab-- K: (in the virtual trainer) HIYAA!! (punches through a concrete wall) “BOOM!!” J: 0.0 Holy Miyazaki! A: YEAH! That’s my girl! W: I had her in the strength tester today. She reached her limit just past 500 lbs. J: .... That’s over double what I can do. (to Aisha) When you were fourteen, could you...? A: Oh yeah. Easy. J: So, you’re not surprised at all. A: Nope. W: Kida, how do you feel about doing the agility test again? K: Let’s do it! I mean, yes Professor Washu. (several horizontal poles materialize at varrying heights) K: (jumps and swings from one pole to another with the agility and grace of an olympic gymnast) J: She’s incredible. W: Justin, I have something you’ll want to see. J: Hmm? W: (brings up a screen) These are the results of today’s bio-scan. As I predicted, the growth accelerators have completely deteriorated. As of today, Kida will begin to age as normally as you or I. Well, as normally as you. J: Thank you, Washu. K: (perches herself on a pole 50 feet in the air) W: Excellent, Kida-chan! K: (jumps off) J: 0.0 *gasp* K: (lands on her feet with a small “thud”) J: *sigh* I’m never gonna get used to that. K: (comes out of the trainer) A: Kida you were awesome! K: *blushes slightly* Aw mom. W: Was there anything else you wanted to do? K: (shakes her head) ...... Oh! Yes! One more thing. (whispers in Washu’s ear) W: (nods) Oh, yes. J: What? W: We’ve exhibited her mother’s side enough. Time to show what she inherited from her father. J: Huh? K: *ahem* (clears her throat and starts singing in the most beautiful soprano voice) “Think of me. Think of me fondly When we said ‘good-bye’ Remember me once in a while Please promise me you’ll try When you find that once again you long To take your heart back and be free If you ever find a moment Spare a thought for me” J: 0_0 (whispers to self) Ai megami. (claps) Bravo, Kida-chan! Bravo! That was beautiful. I had no idea my girl had the voice of an angel. K: *blushes bright red* Daddy! A: She’s definitely got your blood. J: Yep. With pipes like that... A: I was reffering to the fact that she blushes easily. J: Wha... hey!

I appreciate you comments.

The webisodes are coming! THE WEBISODES ARE COMING!!
That's right! New webisodes are on the way and there's nothing you can do about it! They're fresh off the hibachi and they're better than ever! If you thought "Unmasked" was something, you ain't seen nuthin' yet, kiddies!

--Hamilton Station-- A: (sparring with Felicia) Haa! F: Yaa! A: Hraar! F: You’re very good, Aisha. A: Comming from you, that means a lot. F: I think you’re ready. A: 0.0 Nya? Really?! F: (backs away, becons with her paw) A: (backs up a little, crouches down) F: Remember what I said. A: (nods, curls into a ball, quickly rolls forward, pops up in front of Felicia and slashes at her) Yaa! F: (dodges) Not bad. A: I did it! I can’t believe I just performed the “rolling buckler”! Summer: (watching on the side, clapping) Looking good over there. Kanasuki: Gambatte ne! Giselle: (nods) Merveilleux. F: I’m surprised Artukei, didn’t come. A: He had to stay home and watch Kida. Besides, he’s not as avid a fighter as I am. And definitely not interrested in learning special attacks. --Artukei’s House-- --the dojo-- J: Ready Ozz? O: (just finishing setting up a line of seven paper screens, gives the thumbs up) J: (stands six feet away from the screens, closes his eyes, takes a deep breath) ...... (thrusts his arm forward) HAA! “RRRRRRIIIIPP!!!” J: Yes! Did I get them all this time? O: (looks, nods) Mm. ^_^ (the screens are all ripped down the middle) --Hamilton Station-- F: I never thought of you as a fighter Aisha. A: Oh yeah. We Ctarls are natural born warriors. Just before Justin and I met, I was kind of a part-time bounty hunter. And a couple years ago, I won the title of “Strongest Woman in the Universe.” S: Wow. Strongest Woman in the Universe? A: Yeah. Unfortunately, the trophy was lost in the fire. GI: Fire? A: It’s a long story. And a good one. One of my friends had to dress in drag. Remind me to tell it to you someday.
