Made few changes is all.
It occurs to me that I should probably do one for the fanboys as well...
Xavier : I know more about you than you do.
Wolverine: How does he do that?
Xavier : It's quite simple, really. My brain is so large that it
stretches my skin to its absolute limit, therefore obliterating any hair
follicles that might have existed.
Wolverine: You realize that that doesn't explain anything.
Golems weren't supposed to feel fear. Stone outside, stone inside.
But Zelgadis was afraid.
He saw them everywhere now, always trying to control him, control his love
life, control everything to suit their own desires and whims.
Always they were there, whispering, always whispering.
He burrowed into the covers, staring out at the four walls of the room. Even
here, in the Inn they were there, just beyond the limit of his senses,
giggling, talking, grinning, reaching for him, arguing with each other.
The door slammed open and Zelgadis flung a spell, only to watch as Lina
brushed it aside.
With a whimper, Zelgadis burrowed further into the covers. Watching as
reality itself changed and warped around him a hundred, a thousand times all
in the blink of an eye. Lina changed to Syphiel, Ameila, Xelloss, Gourry,
Martina, even women he never met. They grew wings, became golems, changed
outfits, hair, even genders. At one point. Zelgadis found himself naked,
strapped to a table as Gourry and Xelloss, both clad only in leather skirts,
prepared for some awful deed.
Even the room didn't stay the same. The wooden walls became brick, plaster,
steel, flame and straw. From where the bed was, he could see out the window.
Buildings both recognizable and not appeared and disappeared, people changing
clothes and even species.
And always, they were there, never showing themselves, but there, always
there, never leaving him in peace. Each and every one telling him he belonged
to them.
And then, just as suddenly, it all returned to normal as Lina shut the door
and walked over to the bed. "Jeez, Zel, what's the matter with you?" she
asked, placing her hands on her hips as she looked down at him. "You've been
acting so jumpy lately. Its like we've been traveling with a rabbit."
Zelgadis whispered something. "What?" Lina asked, bending over the bed. "Say
again?"
"I see fangirls," Zelgadis said, his voice filled with terror. "All the
time."

"Great," Nabiki said, getting up to pace as her voice began to climb in
volume with every word. "Kasumi gets a man who worships the ground she walks
on, Akane has three different rich lunatics, or kings, or Demigods fall in
love with her nearly every day--and that's just before breakfast, mind
you--and what do I get?" She glared at SETCOM's burnished black metal shell,
her voice soft, but her tone as cold as ice. "A computer."
