Bendytimed to Shore Leave [Open]

Negi was smoking. A holo-cig but still.

And he had a big goofy grin on his face.

For his first cigarette in, well, forever, he was being rather good at it. And he was humming and walking around like he was floating on air.

The night before had been just fantastic. Wonderful food despite the tiny portions, the wine was great, the amazing not!date...

Yeah, he was on cloud nine at the least. And dressed in sunglasses, hooded shirt and shorts with sneakers, he was humming loudly and a little off tune.

Chamo chuckled to himself. "You think the way he was acting he got laid..."

"I heard that!" exclaimed Negi and Chamo laughed.

Nanashi had spied Negi from across the beach, but what was that it better not be... Oh, it was. Nanashi stormed up to Negi and snatched the holo-cig right out of his mouth. "How dare you? Do you know what this does to your body, young mister? Hmm? It will destroy your precious lungs, inside out! Do you have a death wish! You must! First you offer yourself to a vampire because she is hungry of all things, and now I catch you smoking? You just love danger! And you are still young! Do you even have any idea how this is effecting your development? Do you have any idea how bad for you this is? And you will not be able to stop smoking either! All of these drugs are so addictive to you humans! You destroy your own bodies with a smile on your face!"

She wanted to smack some sense into the boy, but she knew better than that. He was just human, and she was pissed. Just a little to hard, and she could kill the child. These humans are just so delicate.

Katara had no idea what to expect back on Stacy, but popping into the Sensoriums, it was certainly not this. Nanashi was there, and so was Negi, who she'd been hoping to catch during their vacation but hadn't, and she seemed to be screaming at him. Katara rolled her eyes: this wasn't the first time that a girl had done this to Negi and was very likely not to be the last, so she decided to walk gingerly into this, see what was going on. Poor Negi didn't need to be screamed at.

"Your majesty," Katara said, then looked at Negi. "Um, Negi is a friend of mine, so if he's getting screamed at, I'd like to know why. See, I know that Negi's magic had a tendency to do weird things, so if that's the case, I'd like to speak in his defense."

When Nanashi had stormed up and snagged the holo-cig out of his lips, he just blinked through the tirade. That same goofy smile was still on his lips for the most part and it quirked in amusement at Nanashi's enraged state. Ah she did care!

And oh thanks Katara for sticking up for him too. That made things a whole lot better.

"It's not real," said Negi as the holo-cig winked out of existence. "It's holographic. I know I'm still too young to smoke but I also felt that it was the only way I could express myself at the moment."

He rubbed his head, chuckling slightly. "Sorry, I just had a REALLY great night and somewhere down the line, I felt like conjuring up one of these."

He flicked his fingers as another materialized, already lit.

Nanashi blinked. "W-" She caught herself before she stuttered 'what?' but she still looked surprised.

"So, it's not real?" Well, yes, that was what he just said. Nanashi was usually faster on the uptake.

She glared at Negi again when he mentioned his great night. "You did not have sex with a courtesan- or any other woman, did you?"

She had seen human, and even women sometimes, smoke from pipes before after a 'great night'. So, the cigarette was fake, but she was not sure if ruining his innocence with sex was worse.

"Nanashi!" Katara blurted out, turning red. She couldn't believe this conversation was happening. The very idea of sweet little Negi doing something like that!

"First of all, Negi, you shouldn't smoke okay? It's.." she turned and gave Chamo a We'll-talk-about-this-later mom look, "...bad for you."

She turned to Nanashi. "He didn't do that, but even I'm a little curious about the girl you spent that time with." She gave him a wink.

Chamo snickered even though he was glared at. "Ai Ai, anesan, both of ya. Aniki had a great night though, isn't that right aniki?"

"Oh it was swell," said Negi, still floating on cloud nine. "We went to a nice dinner even though it was kind of small portions, hit a hamburger joint for a drink and more food, and then we took a long walk down the beach and went to bed together..."

Keep digging that pit bigger Negi, it'll keep getting wider.

"Sasami-chan's really warm..."

THERE we go. And he raised the holo-cig to his lips.

Oh... My.
Nanashi was silent for a second, and then, "YOU DID WHAT?"

And Negi was up in the air, Nanashi holding him by his shoulders, attempting to gently shake him, and only being slightly successful.

Katara face palmed. She knew, KNEW, that Negi had not done what Nanashi thought he had. But if he was going to phrase it like that, she knew that he had to learn to talk more cautiously. What she was not going to do was let Negi take all of the heat for this.

Now she punted the ermine, not in an angry way but in a concentrated motherly irritated way. "If you wanted Negi not to get in trouble, you could have phrased that better. You're being perverted on purpose!"

Like Negi didn't have enough problems!

"I regret nothing!" exclaimed Chamo, flying along and making squeaky toy noises as he bounced.

"What?" asked Negi curiously as he was shaken. "Nanashi-sama, I would like it very much if you didn't shake me."

He looked down at Nanashi and asked, "So um... is sleeping together a big thing where you come from? Asuna-san and I sleep together all the time and so do you and I oneechan."

Nanashi slowly let him down. Well, you just managed to shock the vampire who thought she had seen everything.

And terrify her as well. "You- you sleep with..."

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?"

Maybe if Nanashi had not been so shocked by what Negi said, Katara's statement and punting of the small creature would have set in a bit more.

At this, Katara took notice. Last time, she had felt so awkward and vulnerable, caught in a stupidly compromising position with Negi and looking so guilty. Now however, she crossed her arms, keeping her feet in place.

"Honestly, you really should believe me when I told you the only person I want to be with is Aang! Negi is a ten year old magician who misses his sister. He sleeps in bed with me the way he would with his sister: fully clothed but feeling protected. Negi is like a younger brother. That is our relationship."

She looked at Negi now, her face curious. "You know, you're acting a little slower than I remember Negi. Your reactions are almost...delayed. Are you all right?"

Thank you Bene Gesserit observational skills.

"S'true. Oneechan and I sleep together. I get nightmares..." said Negi with a little shuffle to his feet like the kid he was.

He blinked at Katara's question. "Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" He grinned though. "Though maybe it's the drink I had... Sasami-chan and I had some of that awesome fruit beverage at the restaurant... what was it called...? Oh yeah, Meelar Water!"

There was a long pause. And Chamo looked up in alarm. "Oh no..."

Negi was a cheap drunk. And he drank only a grand total of a couple of times.

He and Sasami FINISHED THE BOTTLE.

"I wonder why it was so fizzy and good? We didn't finish our sodas but we drank the alien soda..."

Yeah, sneaking away now. Run Chamo Run.

Okay, so he had meant Katara by 'oneesan', not his real sister, but a sort of surrogate. And it was acceptable if it was like how Katara had described.

But Nanashi's temper was still high, and even more worrisome, Negi was drunk. So that was the sour smell to him.

She moved so fast that it would have been impossible for these human eyes to track, raising her arm up and back-handing Negi across the face. It was hard enough that he would stumble, but she decided to not break his cheekbone.

Ciggarettes killed slowly, and sex destroyed innocence, but drinking, that was dangerous. it could kill you if you drank too much, and it lowered your inhibitions, making other mistakes more likely, and it kept you from being able to judge a dangerous situation.

And angering Nanashi was most definitely a dangerous situation. "You got drunk." Her voice was full of blood. Not a good sign.

Ok, now Katara was really mad at Chamo, and was about to tell him so when she heard the slap from the other direction. She didn't even think about it: she was just there, from one place to another as she'd been taught by Arha, in Nanashi's path. She knew Nanashi was a vampire, that she could hurt her pretty badly.

Buts she also knew Negi Springfield better than that.

"You are strict, and I get that," Katara said, "but don't hit Negi. I'm his oneesama, and I'll make him understand what he did was wrong. He's a good boy...I refuse to believe he did it on purpose."

She gave a sharp, tell the truth glance to Negi. "Did you want to get drunk, Negi-kun?"

Edited 2010-06-21 04:03 (UTC)

Negi rubbed his cheek. He had taken much harder blows than that but the slap actually did him some good, breaking through the haze of his mind for the moment so he could focus on Katara. "Um... not really?" said Negi, uncertain. "I didn't even know I was!"

He dug around in his pack, and held up the bottle with alien script on it as Chamo ascended to his shoulder unsteadily and ran the script over the translator core. "Meelar Water. Caution: Children should not drink this. While a regular soft drink engineered for adults, it is not intended for children as intoxicating effects will last for a duration of 48 hours." Chamo lowered the Omnicom. "Aniki... did you read this?"

"We didn't get past Meelar Water," said Negi honestly. "I thought it was okay. It tastes like sparkly fruit juice."

There's a brief sensation of his sides being touched by hands before it is firmly a situation of being grabbed as he is lifted off the ground and high up into the air...higher and higher.

"Eh?" inquired Negi as he was lifted into the air. "What's going on?"

"Flying woman," grunted Chamo. "Hey babe!"

(http://photobucket.com)
"I'm going to let you off with a warning since you are a member of the youth, and also because you are cute." The voice from behind is deep and throaty and incredibly womanly, not to mention annoyed. "You will drop that disgusting...ugh...thing...and you won't ever pick one up again."

The ground is getting farther and farther away...

"Sorry anesan, but Aniki and I are a package deal," said Chamo with a grin, staring up into her cleavage.

"Not that I'm complaining shut up Chamo-kun before she drops us but how come we're being hauled into the air?"

(http://photobucket.com)
"The cigarette." Comes the stone, cold, hard voice. "Drop. The. Cigarette. NOW."

"Yes ma'am." Negi flickered the holo-cig out of existence. "Told you it was a bad idea Chamo-kun."

"You're so easily plyable right now though," smirked Chamo.

"Hey c'mon, I was having a good day and then you said "get the holo-cig it won't hurt aniki"." Negi rolled his eyes. "Really..."

Taking a deep breath, Nanashi covered her face with her hand. "Please, please be more careful, Negi." Lowering her hand Nanashi looked sternly at Katara, "I am sorry Katara, I see we have very different ways of going about things. Still, it is rather unlike me to raise my hand against my-" Had she really just made that slip? "a child. I was just extremely concerned."

And drinking... It led to all sorts of other drugs, and she frowned upon that at least until you were done growing. "Negi, I do not want you to drink any more of this Meelar Water... Or anything else that will impair your senses. Do you understand me?"

(http://photobucket.com)
"...is that...alcohol on your breath?"

There's a brief plik! sound before Negi will have the wind in his face, moving fast and faster, a spin around, before the horror of being flung into the air, up up up up and up...high.

"GAH!" exclaimed Negi, being hurled through the air. With his staff it was fine but suspended like this...!

"Hold up neechan, hoooooold!" exclaimed Chamo, hanging on for dear life. "Wait, he's drunk?!"

"I'm drunk?" exclaimed Negi. Wait, was he? What'd he drink to get DRUNK?!

... and why was he mostly lucid and not slurring his words?

Hmm.

Katara nodded. "I understand that. I also know Negi, and he has this tendency to get intro trouble by accident. It often gets him hit by girls, something I'm trying to help with positive reinforcement." She shot a look at the ermine hidden in the room. "Which could be avoided if a certain someone does his job of making sure he doesn't get into trouble!"

She sighed. "Negi, make sure you read the packages of strange things on different worlds you've never been to before. Use some common sense, or you'll get into trouble, okay? Just because you can make yourself doesn't mean you have adult tolerance."

She would find out who the lucky girl was later.
