Alright, although I have yet to submit an entry to Megane's last 
challenge, I pose one of my own now. (Eeesh, I know I've been 
watching too much Blue Seed but...anyway...)

Here is my challenge:

OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE!!

YES! I challenge everyone to write one or more OMAKE fics! They can 
be about anything, from any series. They can be silly, or satirical, 
or quiet and thoughtful...as long as they're OMAKE! Keep them short, 
folks! No omake fic should top 10KB in length, if they're even that 
long! And they're better if submitted in groups!

I'll be working on my omake fics later on, and should post them 
within a day.

See below for definition of omake if you're not familiar with the 
concept...






OMAKE means "extra" and is sometimes added to the end of an anime 
release as a bonus feature. It is usually satirical and makes light 
of the animation process and/or topics expressed in the preceding 
episode, although sometimes it's quiet and introspective. It's short, 
and it's not something that would ever actually appear within an 
episode of the given series. 

For a perfect idea of what omake is, check out Blue Seed...every Blue 
Seed video ends with an omake feature.
