	(after reading)  Well, no argument here.  To quote the great Ron
Stoppable:  "Sick and WRONG!"

	EVA?  Couldn't be, too easy.

	Oh.  You did NOT!
	You sick, twisted so-and-so... you DID.

	Cousins?  Okay, this isn't going the direction the NA dub of SuperS
did, is it?  Even if it *is* fanonical....

	Having not seen the Xover canon material (or did I just excise those 
memories via self-trepanation?), I'm not sure where this laid-back-ness 
is coming from.  But *boy,* is it funny.

	Ohhhh, boy.

	Actually, if you parse that sentence literally... never mind.

	....oooookay, *who* gave Makoto the marijuana brownies recipe?

	And that, sadly, *is* SM-canonical.

	Don't'cha just love how CUTE she is at times like this?

	And OF COURSE Rei won't be able to let this one-upmans... er, 
up-womanship?  ANYway...

	I'm not even surprised.

	<choking noises>  Oh, this is so NOT the kind of thing to do to your 
loyal readers, man....

	SP:  Morphin'.  Have to use the ' to replace the missin' G, man.

	For definitions of "counterproductive" that include "utter destruction 
of the entire facility, the city of Tokyo, and most of the greater Kanto 
region," that is.

	Well, she's smart enough not to light a match in a room full of 
gunpowder, at least.
