Cosmos Quest (Naruto/Lupin III)

Gentlemen! (and Ladies) Lets talk about a change to the dislike section. The "I don't like people not giving me cigarettes" part is childish and pushy. We may be pushy, but not about getting things. Its more fun to "acquire" them once we've been told no than it is to complain about it.

I see where you're going, but the snappy way I can think of to encapsulate this is essentially admitting to thievery. Like, "I have a love/hate relationship with people who don't give me what I want. On one hand, I hate being denied. On the other hand, I love taking stuff from the people who deny me what I want!"

Normally I'd agree with you, I thought the same thing when I first thought of it, but in this instance we will have just said that one of our hobbies is fucking with people.

Why not just say nothing then? We ask him if we can bum a cig in the line before. He hasn't even had time to say no yet. I posted an alternative with my vote, but I'd be open to more eloquent suggestions too.

You don't think we'll be giving him time to say no right after asking him if we can have one?
 
A) We do. He says no. The next thing out of our mouth is that we dislike that.
B) We do. He says yes. The next thing out of our mouth is that we'd dislike that if he hadn't.
C) We don't. We tell him before he even has a chance to answer that we'll dislike him saying no.

Any way you cut it it ends up sounding spoiled and/or pissy.
 
(x) Dude, can I bum a cig? It has been literally ages since my last one.
It's not a big deal or anything, guys. We signed up to be child soldiers, odds ate we'll be dead of a kunai long before cancer.

Damn, you're right. There is a possibility that he'll say yes.

Oh yeah, on the topic of Shout-Outs. Was the C-Rank Disengage obvious FSN already called, and the I Am Captain Planet one? I assume Guile picked up most of the easy ones to get his slashes. Land of Interpretive Dance is also probably a Ninja Science reference so he got those. The "Welcome...the the real world," was pure Matrix too. The whole inception thing is such a gimme it shouldn't count for anything.

Here Comes The Sun is obviously a Hinata reference, but reminds me of Black Hole Sun the song.

Archives, fun and practical.

EDIT: I can scarcely believe this HASN'T been called, but since it didn't come up yet as I browse the Archives...AMI SMASH PUNY THIEF GIRL for Incredible Hulk, just in case.

Sagara-sensei....Sousuke Sagara?

So that's two Zantecchan for Hymn, a fresh one for Guile, and Jans is on the way to getting one if he can find another shout-out besides Stun-Gun Milly's go-to order and the combined unintentional ones to Kennedy/Trudeau.

(... I wonder if historical shippers ever put those two together? Trudeau's the seme, of course; Kennedy had too many daddy issues to be anything but an uke.)

Sanosuke, actually. Incidentally, he's rather disappointed by the way you ended up a genjutsu-focused grad; he feels you were poorly-served by the school system as it stands and that you would've had a great run as a gentaijutsu fighter. If he could've back then, he'd have skipped you to his third- or fourth-year classes, but that kind of thing is paradoxically frowned upon in peacetime.

The staff has listened to him bitch about it more than once as part of his larger grudge against the administration.
 
TWO?

Kickass.

Right, one's reserved, already know what I'm doing with this baby. Might keep the second in reserve too.

Because I come up with so many outrageous plans when I let myself go, having a "Just as planned" cards makes me giggle in sheer glee.

I agree with him, that sounds freaking awesome and right up our ally.

Oh yeah, more Shout-Outs: "Here we observe...." for Animal Planet I believe. UCHIHA and KUWABARA INTERRUPT seems almost too cheap to call for Mass Effect. Ditto CrimsonFuckr.

Worms burrowing in Ino's brain reminds me of Time Braid, actually. One of the more graphic chapters.

It Don't Mean A Thing, the song, Duke Ellington.

And I have no finished skimming/re-reading the archives. Fun times. I feel like an atrocity has been commited though because I never found a single Sly Cooper reference. This saddens me.

The worms in the brain bit reminded me of the fic Project Horizons, MC goes nuts and starts feeling like there's a radroach in her brain. I'm guessing all the fics are referencing some other thing.
 
The worm-imagery was actually inspired by my childhood nightmares about my brain being consumed by prions.

And... I've never played Sly Cooper. Gomen. ._.;

Oh thank you SO much for reminding me of that. My biology friend in college creeped people out with graphic prion talk for kicks.

I believe the most chilling sentence I've ever read is "You can't kill them, because they aren't alive."

's right up there with The Shortest Horror Story In The English Language.
 
=_= But I wanted to sleeeeep...

Menka dropped a simpson's reference back when he first met Ami. "Let us celebrate this arrangement with the adding of chocolate to milk."
 
"Let us celebrate this arrangement with the adding of chocolate to milk." could also be a shoutout to the animated teen titans series and Starfires way of speaking-

Plus, chakra/magic bullshit mucking things up.

Actually, she says that exact line in one of the episodes.
 
Not a Teen Titans fan. It's a Simpsons' reference.

Can a woman get a tally?
 
Edit: Updated as of Malcolmo's vote change two post after this one.

[1] Yamanaka Ino the Fifth! My likes include, but are not limited to, practicing my various crafts and testing my skills. My dislikes would be... mysteries that I haven't resolved yet, I think. And as to my dream? NOt a dream, but a certainty - to become the best I can become, and to get there with my friends.

Not sure if anyone is using an Iron-Cutter on this vote. No one has actually come out and said they would, and Hymn has made it clear he doesn't want to on this one.
