MEL IS GOING TO JAPAN!
Jul. 12th, 2002 11:35 amMEL: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
[Mel runs past the startled G-boys at top speed, hair flying, arms waving everywhere. Her glasses are steamed up.]
QUATRE: Ummm… Christy… what’s going on?
[Mel runs past in the opposite direction.]
MEL: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
DUO: Did she get into the sugar tin again?
CHRISTY: *grumble* No.
MEL: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
WUFEI: Duo… have you been doing anything we need to know about? For example, putting drugs in the cola?
DUO: No! Would I do anything like that?!
EVERYBODY: Yes!
MEL: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
WUFEI: I seem to remember _somebody_ trying to drug the muses and getting Mel by mistake. She acted amazingly annoying that time, too.
DUO: Er… true. Wasn’t me this time, though!
MEL: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
HEERO (wincing as the ear-piercing squeal dopplers past): Are you _sure_?
CHRISTY: It wasn’t him. At least, I don’t know if Mel is drugged or not, but she does have a reason to be acting this way.
[Christy pulls a frying pan out of the cupboard and holds it out to one side.]
MEL: WHEEEEEEEEEE-*clang!* …ooooo. *THUD*
TROWA: Well, that’s a little more peaceful at least.
HEERO: Until she wakes up again, anyway. What’s going on?!
CHRISTY: *sigh* Mel’s Japanese lecturer called. She’s going on a student exchange program.
QUATRE: Oh! That’s nice!
CHRISTY: No it’s _not_!
DUO: Er… why not?
CHRISTY: *grumble* Because.
TROWA: Mel seems to be happy.
CHRISTY: Well of course she is! She’s always wanted to go to Japan.
HEERO: …Japan?
CHRISTY: Kanazawa University, to be precise.
HEERO (mutter): Maybe I should warn the Self-Defence Forces to prepare for a worse monster than Godzilla ever was…
WUFEI: So why aren’t you happy?
CHRISTY: It’s going to be bloody hard to write with her in Japan and me stuck here.
[The G-boys all develop huge grins. Quatre attempts to conceal his, and Trowa’s is more of a smirk, but Heero, Duo and Wufei are all acting like an advertisement for White’N’Brite Toothpaste.]
QUATRE: Well, she’ll be back soon, I’m sure—
CHRISTY: In a _year_! A whole year!
[The grins widen.]
CHRISTY: *sigh* I suppose it can’t be helped.
QUATRE: Exactly! Calm resignation is the proper frame of mind to take this sort of news in!
HEERO: Accept the consequences.
WUFEI: It’s for her studies. That’s more important than writing. Perhaps she’ll improve her mind.
DUO: *snort* Yeah, right.
TROWA: You’ll adapt. So will we.
CHRISTY: Yep. Got to approach this in a positive sort of way. OI! Mel! Wake up! We’ve got to write really fast to get as much done as possible before you leave!
G-BOYS: *gleep!*
--------------------------
Okay… Yes, the writing team of Mel and Christy will be split up for a year, starting in early October. But fear not! We’ll be keeping in touch over the Internet, and will try to set up a writing schedule as close as possible to what we’ve been doing so far. We’re likely to slow down a bit, but we are NOT going to stop! All our stories will be continued. We promise!
