Threshie: Okies, I don't own FY--it belongs to Yu Watase-sama! *Touches forehead to floor* Thus, I don't own the chibis herein…

Rufus: *Rolls eyes* Get on with your AN so they won't get so bored that they leave and go read something else.

Threshie: ^^;;; Damare, Rufie!

Rufus: *Dark look at the nickname*

Threshie: Several people enjoyed my tiny mini ficcy, The Chibi, and so I was toying with the idea of writing another chibi-fic. *Twiddles thumbs*

Rufus: Looks like you stopped toying with the idea and started typing.

Threshie: Uhh, actually, don't think of this as fanservice, people! ^^;; This was one of those 'write to procrastinate' kind of things that just turned out okay enough to post. I was writing the first scene to one of my original stories, Only Darkness, which is very, very, very dark and angsty and depressing in general. ^^;; And I was so put-out after writing just that one scene that I decided to write something cutesy and fairly light-hearted as a bit of a break from the 'so painful to the character it's painful to the reader/writer' kind of stuff. ^~;; This is what I came up with--enjoy, and tell me if you want another chapter, 'cause I'm not sure it's good enough to finish.

Rufus: *Frowns* It only took you a paragraph to say that…

Threshie: ^^;;; Damare, Rufie!

Chibified Escapades: Chibi Monks and Floodcrying Bandits--Dahaha! 9/1/2002

Mallory York/Threshie

The tiny, childlike form of a chibi appeared with a soft 'poof' outside of the tent, its silhouette dragging a kasa that was larger than it was after it as it crept over to the door flap. A small head of pale blue fluff poked through the entrance to the tent, the chibi's single, slanted mahogany eye peering about anxiously. The dare Tasuki had set before the little monk was very simple: retrieve Kouji's headband and bring it back to him. The chibi frowned slightly, remembering how much Kouji loved his headband, and wondered briefly what was so special about it.

"Da," he murmured to himself, leaving prints of tiny Chinese slippers in the mud behind him as he came inside the tent fully and dropped the door flap back down. "The headband, no da…" Taking tiny steps with his relatively short pair of legs, the little thing came over to Kouji's bedroll. His single eye widened in surprise when he didn't see the form of the bandit in his bed, but then he caught sight of a tiny, curled up lump with messy midnight-blue hair, and he smiled happily. Chichiri'd forgotten--Kouji almost always went chibi when sleeping. The chibi monk paused, thought for a moment, then decided that asking for the headband would be nicer than just taking it--and the tiny bandit wouldn't kill the chibi monk if he woke up while the precious strip of cloth was being removed this way. Reaching down, chibi Chichiri shook the other chibi's shoulder, whispering, "Wake up, no da!"

The tiny monk sweatdropped a sweatdrop almost the size of himself when he observed the chibi bandit to yawn cutely, mumble, "Gen-chan," under his breath, turn over and promptly go back to sleep.

"Kouji-chan!" The chibi monk surrendered whispering for shouting in a tiny, high voice, "Wake up, no da!" He shook the other chibi again, succeeding in making the tiny bandit sit up and look at him blearily.

"Ano…?" Chibi Kouji asked sleepily, scrubbing at one eye with the back of his hand and yawning softly again. Chibi Chichiri could already see his eyes drifting closed again. Panicking, he waved his chibi arms and legs about.

"Da! GEN-CHAN, NO DA!"

Chibi Kouji immediately perked up, "Gen-chan?"

"Hai, no da," the tiny monk said tiredly, "Watashi wa headband kudasai? For Gen-chan?" The chibi bandit's hazel eyes widened at mention of his precious headband, and he immediately clamped his hands over his messy midnight-blue hair.

"IIE! Iie onegai!" He cried, as if the other chibi was going to steal the headband away from him.

"Maa, maa, no da!" Chibi Chichiri sighed, holding up two tiny hands, "Daijoubu! Dare, no da!"

"Dare?" The tiny bandit inquired, blinking several times.

"Hai, no da." Chibi Kouji blinked.

"Dare…?" He asked again, confusedly.

"Hai, no da!" Was the exasperated answer. Chibi Kouji was obviously having a hard time with this concept--either he wasn't awake fully, or he couldn't believe that 'Gen-chan' would dare the chibi monk to steal his headband.

Tugging the precious strip of cloth off of his head, chibi Kouji gazed down at it with large, teary hazel eyes, "Gen-chan…Iie!" He hugged the headband tightly, floodcrying, "IIE!" Chibi Chichiri sweatdropped as the tiny bandit acted out a soap opera scene, voicing the lines of both of the characters: "Iie! Don't go! Gomennasai, ore wa sayonara! IIE! You don't mean that! Hai, I do! Gomen, gomen… Aishiteru, koi Headband-sama… *Sniff* Sayonara! Sayonara, Kouji-chan! I-IIE, chotto! Matte! HEADBAND-SAMAAAA!!!" After this was said, the chibi began to floodcry again.

Chibi Chichiri blinked his single, slanted eye, patting the chibi bandit on the shoulder, unable to think of anything else to do, "Da, maa, maa, no da! D-daijoubu, no da… Oya oya," he muttered to himself, sweatdropping. He paused, "Chotto, Kouji-chan!" The chibi bandit paused in floodcrying, suddenly not appearing upset in the least.

"Hai?" Chibi Chichiri smiled cutely.

"Da! We'll snitch Tasuki-san's tessen and turn the dare on him, no da!" Chibi Kouji blinked at the large amount of English in the sentence, but understood after a moment.

"I-iie," he said, appearing quite upset at the thought of stealing anything from Tasuki. Chibi Chichiri sweatdropped again and sighed, hanging his head.

"Tessen or your headband, Kouji-chan," he said. Chibi Kouji's hazel eyes filled with tears again, and he hugged the headband protectively.

"Iie! Onegai!" Chibi Chichiri shrugged.

"Hai, well, Tasuki-san said get Headband-sama or some of Tomo's makeup!" Chibi Kouji shivered, but stood, nodding.

"Hai. Let's go get some makeup, then!" He smiled cutely and did a victory sign, causing Kouji fangirls worldwide to giggle madly/take a zillion quick snapshots to use as wallpaper later/faint from the kawaiiness/grin cheezily back/all of the above.

Chibi Chichiri sweatdropped again, "I was afraid you'd say that, no da." He sighed. "Shouldn't have woke you, no da…"

"Iie, baka!" Chibi Kouji 'dahaha-ed' in the classic bandit manner, grinning widely, "It'll be easy! Just poof in an' poof out!"

"Da," the tiny monk sighed, rubbing his head like he was getting a headache from the conversation, "Don't wake Tomo, no da! The cackle…" He shuddered, "We can't, Kouji-chan. Iie… If we do…ITAI." Chibi Kouji sweatdropped at the memory of the headache-inducing cackle the Seiryuu Seishi possessed and nodded solemnly. Returning to his discarded kasa, the chibi monk beckoned the tiny bandit over, mumbled a magic spell and made several strange signs with his chubby little fingers.

"No da!" He finished, smiling happily as the edges of the hat glowed slightly. He made a sweeping gesture for chibi Kouji to jump in first. Peering inside the kasa, the tiny bandit shoved his precious headband back onto his head, crawling over the edge.

"GERONEMO!" He cried, startling chibi Chichiri so much that the tiny monk jumped at the sound of his voice. The tiny bandit tumbled head over heels down to the bottom of the kasa, where he sank through the hat like it was liquid and disappeared from sight entirely. Chibi Chichiri sweatdropped and prepared himself for Tomo's cackle, should things really come to that. Suddenly, he realized that the chibi bandit was in Tomo's tent alone--and could very easily wake up the freakishly painted Seishi! Quickly, the chibi monk scrambled over the edge of the kasa and disappeared inside.

"This's going to be a disaster, no da…"
