40cakesBecause back in March, I introduced ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jaina to Lupin III.
Because shortly thereafter, she suggested a Trigun/Lupin III crossover fic. Thus far, the fic is full of one-liners and neat ideas, but no actual plot.
Because at 8:47 pm on 8/22/04, I get a text message that says: "If we want our 'Meryl teh Ho' fic collection to be complete, she has to sleep with Lupin."
Fujiko was a sick bitch if the only way she got her kicks was leading him on, then turning him down, Lupin thought. At this rate, his entire body would go blue.
The front door creaked open. “Vash?” Meryl called. “Oh, Mr. Lupin, have you seen--”
“No, he’s out with Fujiko.”
“Is he?” He had gotten accustomed to the way Meryl clenched her jaw when Fujiko’s name was mentioned in the same sentence as Vash’s. It was fun. “Let me ask you something, Mr. Lupin.” She leaned against the wall and sighed. “Don’t you ever get tired of her running around with other guys? Isn’t she your girlfriend or something?”
“Or something,” Lupin snorted. “Sometimes I think Fujiko does things just to piss me off, y’know?”
Meryl raised an eyebrow, thinking of Vash. “Trust me, I know. Men.”
“Hey, women ain’t a walk in the park, either,” he replied, lighting a cigarette.
“I didn’t necessarily mean you, I just meant... At least you’re honest with her. And she should be glad to have a man who has goals, even if they’re not necessarily legal, as opposed to someone who just meanders around, waiting for things to happen to him.”
“You’re pretty honest yourself. He should be glad you don’t play those stupid games. ‘Oh, I love you, but I can’t let you have me! I’ll never let you touch me, but you’re not allowed to go after anyone else!’ To Hell with her.”
“God, we sound bitter,” Meryl laughed. “We need to get laid.”
He snickered. “Now that’s honesty. Most girls wouldn’t make that suggestion in mixed company. Especially not around a debonair cad such as myself.”
“Please. I can defend myself, you wouldn’t be able to do anything I wouldn’t let you.” She rolled her shoulders, shifting the weight of her derringers. “Besides, it is true.”
“See, women, should just be more honest about what they want.”
“And men should know what they want and go for it.”
They looked at each other for a long time.
“They’re gonna be gone a while,” Lupin said.
“Yup.” Meryl nodded towards the door. “Still need to get laid?”
“Absolutely.” He flicked away his cigarette and they hurried inside.
Fuck, I need a new OTP icon.
