The 4th Wall

"Ahh! It feels so good to be writing fanfiction again!" I chirp happily.

"Where the heck have you been for the last two years, Setsumi? Some people were starting to think you were dead!" Horohoro shouts.

"I was-Waaaiiit a minute, are you saying you missed me?"

"You bet!"

"Oh Horohoro, " I say with tears in my eyes, " that's the most touching thing you've ever-"

"I mean, it's about time you gave me more pie!"

"...Pie?"

"Yeah! The last time you gave me some was when you wrote Don't Call Us, We'll Call You! back in two-thousand four and-"

"You welcome me back by demanding I give you some PIE?"

"Uh, Setsumi, what are you doing with that two-by-four? Setsumi? Set-AAAUUUGGHH! OW! Wait-OWW! At-EEEYOWW-least tell the readers to en-AHH-joy your latest poem!"

"Oh right! You heard Horo-kun. Compliments and constructive criticism are/is greatly appreciated. Flames will be used to...ummm..."

"...Grill a pie for Horohoro?" the Ainu hopefully suggests.

"No! By the way, pies are not grilled!" I whack him with the two-by-four one last time.

I hear his name

and my heart

starts to thunder in my chest.

His voice is just

like a lion's

roar. It makes me shiver so!

His eyes are two

onyx lagoons

in which I would gladly drown.

Sweet samurai,

your fighting moves

flow just like The Graces' dancing!

Perfection has

the alias

of Amidamaru,

who I love.


"Love it? Loathe it? Tell me in your review," I address the readers.

Horohoro, carefully removing his splinters, asks, "Where is Amidamaru, anyway? After all, this poem is a tribute to your darling samurai."

"Eh, I decided to give him a break. I fawn enough over the poor cutie as it is."

"Oh...Can I have some pie now?"

"HOROHORO!"

"Just kidding, just kidding! I'll see you in Setsumi's future fics, everybody!"
