      (*Sephiroth walks into a bar. Well, okay, it's the Emiko's Genesis Chatroom Bar, but that takes longer to say. Anyway, he's back for now ...*)

      Ki Yazama: Hey, Seph! Long time no see!

      Edge: Yeah! *hic* Where ya been?

      Sephiroth: Just out selling hotdogs. What've you guys been doing lately? ^_^

      Edge: Drinkin'. *hic*

      Ki: Runnin' around being an SD kind of guy ... ^_-

      Sephiroth: Makes sense. ^_- Anything interesting happen around the bar lately?

      Ki: Hmm? Oh ... well, it did get bought by a new owner recently.

      Edge: Yeah. *hic* For 40 'rims. *hic*

      Sephiroth: 40 'rims? I thought it was worth more than that.

      Ki: It was, but she managed to negotiate the price down a wee bit ...

      Sephiroth: She?

      Tifa: (*popping up from behind the counter*) Heeeeeeellllllooooo Sephiroth!! (*devious grin*)

      (*Sephiroth literally jumps a couple of feet in the air from shock, landing very roughly back on the bar stool*)

      Tifa: You going to be ordering anything today? (*starts "carelessly" rearranging the materia in one of her bracelets*)

      Sephiroth: Erm ... just water, thanks. ^^;; I'm saving up for a Mai-chan poster.

      Tifa: (*shrugs*) Suit yourself. But if you change your mind, you'll have to order from one of the new employees.

      Sephiroth: New employees?

      Edge: *hic* (thinks: Spoony ... I hope it isn't Yuffie ...)

      Tifa: Yeah. They were supposed to be here five minutes ago so I could take Aerith to see --

      (*Tifa's sentence is interrupted by a spindly teenage boy bursting into the bar and running right up to the counter ...*)

      Tifa: Kii-kun! You're late!

      Kii: (*out of breath*) Hai, hai ... gomen, Lockheart-san. (*bow*)

      Tifa: (*laughing*) It's okay, Kii-kun; you're only five minutes. How about you start your shift now and I head out?

      Kii: Arigato, Lockheart-san! (*bow*)

      (*Kii takes his place behind the counter and Tifa leaves the bar -- adjusting her materia as she passes Seph*)

      Ki: Oy. *hic* What's with her? *hic*

      Sephiroth: ..... ^^;;

      Edge: Sooooooo ... you got a job at the bar, Kii-kun? Didn't think it was your type ...

      Kii: Well, you're sort of right ... I was schooled by a mechanic in mechanical repair most of my life. But there aren't that many mechanic shops here in First Tokyo. I guess things just don't break down as often. (*shrug*) Anyway, I figured it was better to get a job here than move to New Osaka. ^_^

      Edge: Yeah ... but a job at a bar?

      Kii: Ah ... Void-san and the Shito Sentai know that that's not really as impossible as you think. ^_-

      (*Suddenly, there is the sound of wooden furniture breaking, and the entire bar falls silent except for the sound of one voice ...*)

      ????: Depp!!

      Kii: Shimatta ... not again!

      (*Kii runs out from behind the counter to stop what now appears to be a brawl between some generic anime drunk and a firey-haired teenage girl*)

      Kii: (*running between the two*) Stop it, Asuka! We're supposed to --

      (*Kii is cut short by an uppercut to the jaw from Asuka. He lands somewhere in the crowd.*)

      Asuka: Einfaltspinsel!! Why don't you look where you're going?!

      Kii: Gomen nasai, Asuka ... itai ... (*rubs face*)

      Asuka: (*calming down -- slightly*) Let's get working on our shift already, okay?

      Kii: Hai, hai ...

      (*they head off and set up again behind the counter*)

      Asuka: Feh. Dummkopf ... why do I always have to get stuck with the idiots who don't know when to duck?

      Sephiroth: (*very quietly, to Kii*) Anno ... Kii-kun ... what's she doing here in the Chatroom?

      Kii: Ah ... I think Asuka heard about the Shito Sentai's popularity here and got jealous. ^^ Really, I guess it was only a matter of time since Chatty's been dabbling in German for the past --

      Asuka: Hey! Cut it out! We're supposed to be working, not socializing!

      Kii: Hai, Asuka-san ... (*to Sephiroth*) Gomen, Seph-san. I don't have the time to argue with her today.

      Sephiroth: (*nods*) I wouldn't either. ^_^

      Arbitrary END OF POST

      Oh my goodness gracious ... I got the 1200th post! I GOT THE 1200th post!! WAI WAI WAI WAI WAI!!

      (*Calming down*) Yeah, I know it wasn't this one ... it was the "no, that was Cookie's Request" one, but it's still much better than "I Like Chicken", ne?

      P.S. Hai, I am excited about this because 1200 is a more important number than 1000. This may sound odd, but trust me -- I'm an Evangelion buff; I know my numerology. 1000 is merely 10 to the 3rd power while 1200 is a highly elevated form of 12, which itself is 3 times 4 ... and that is a completely irrelevant point, too. Doesn't matter, I'm so happy ... ^o^

      Shinobi: Ahhh... fate... destiny.... the meaning of life... the stuff dreams (and philosphical rambleings) are made of. Well, now i am in the mood to answer, lemme tell ya, for i have looked into the grinning maw of death and lo, the Guardian of Life spake unto me and said "Errr... i don't want you yet, go back and have the rest of the accident" and i spake back "awww... but the tunnel is such a long walk..."  but in the end, i returned to the scene and continued to slide about... the nice man in the pickup truck tells me "These things happen" so i believe him (and thank all that i can thank that the car didn't flip over, that would have been a problem [all that convertable upside down thing just wouldn't have been fun]) but soon my can will be back from the shop (and looking less like a squashed frog)

      Lyric: Why did you take all that time to tell that story, it has nothing to do with the question?

      Shinobi: Now that the anecdote is out of the way, Well, the question really is (or seems to be to me), is your life planned? Is it layed out from day one that you will do such and such? Personally, i'd rather it wasn't... free will would make it MUCH more interesting, we have a destiny (ie. you will meet such and such, or do whatever) but getting there can be up in the air, so the journey would be all the fun, you know? And about the meaning of life, "Life has no meaning, life IS the meaning." I said that in a friend's dream, they were signifigantly wierded out by it, but its my philosophy. Continued existance being its own justification and all that... its a fun philosophy... *grin* 

      Bub: Grrrr... Aaaarrrggghhh... Grrrr...? *Bub shakily salutes and gestures with a pistol*

      Plant: ... (*Thinks* Did he just say what i think he did?)

      Shinobi: oh, and just to tell everybody who needs to know, never register for college on the day of fee payment, because it took me literally 4 hours today...

      Lyric: Whine, whine, whine...

      well then, down to bidness... how much would those posers cost (gotta know how much to skim off the account before the parents make me pay for the repairs for the car) And yeah, the script format is quite fun (alot easier than prose format, yes?) And do just jump in, its more fun that way...

      Existance is also (generally) overrated. ^_^ But not today! Yesterday, I received my very own imported copy of Slayers Great... ^_^ What a COOL movie..

      Yuna: Do I believe in Fate? Do I believe in Destiny? Do I even care? I'm a cybernetic android, for spam's sake! It don't make any difference if it is or isn't. ^^

      Kii: Not everyone's of the same opinion, Yuna.

      Yuna: Oh really? Let's ask the people at the EGC bar. Hehehe ...

      And here we go:

      Sephiroth: Um ... gee, I wasn't really expecting that kind of a question ... uh ... well, I guess I don't know. Maybe there is, maybe there isn't. (*shrug*) As far as I'm concerned, the meaning of life is hotdogs and kawaiiness, y'know? ^_^

      Cloud: Fate? Destiny? The meaning of life? Who knows? ... but I'm going to do what I can, even if nobody cares ... even if there's no one watching. (*dramatic pause*) We'll know someday as long as we don't give up. (mutters: Besides, there's so much money out there to make ...)

      Tifa: (mutters: Entrepreneurs ... feh ...) Oh, hi! You want to know what *I* think? Of course. (*grin*) Well, I do believe in fate and destiny. That's how things are. I mean, look at Clod Boy. He can act like a jerk or act like a wussy and yet he still winds up doing the same stuff anyway. ^_- The meaning of life? Love and friends. They make life worth living.

      Aerith: Couldn't agree more. (*giggle*)

      Some guy: Eh ... don't know, don't care. And the meaning of life ... well, if I live, I live. If we all live through it ... then fine, we survived and we'll leave it at that. (*burp*)

      Another guy that looks like a stuffed cat: Awww ... Aerith giggled ... she's so sweet ... huh? Oh, you want *my* opinion too? On what? (*listens*) Oy, you must've been sniffin' somethin' pretty darn strong ... well, I don't believe in fate or destiny or whatever you want to call it. It's people that decide what happens in the world. (*nods*)

      The thing he's sitting on: Kupo! Kupoppo!

      Yet another guy: .....

      Random blonde chick: Hey, who are you calling a "chick"?! (*BAM SLAM SPAM RAM and "ITAI!"*)

      Edge: *hic*

      Asuka: I'm not answering any of your stupid questions, Geraet! Leave me alone.

      Kii: (*shaking his head*) No, I don't believe in either fate or destiny. I believe in free will and grace. Free will means that we are not soulless puppets and we all can grow to our greatest potential. Grace keeps everything from going to hell in a handbasket and pushes us onward to growth. The meaning of life? Haven't I said it? To grow. Toward what? Well --

      Asuka: Quit goofing off, Sheiskopf!! Get back to work.

      Kii: Hai hai, Asuka-san ...

      ... Anno ... that's all ...

      Yuna: ... anno ... I guess that's it!

      Hai, it's me, sort of ... I still have to come back in another post or something, I think. Well, thank heaven I'm alive!

      (Hai, I will try to explain that eventually ...)

      And is it just me, or do we have too many Final Fantasy cameos in the bar? Not that I don't like FF cameos ... they are so much fun, and a heckuva lot easier to pull off, too. (*wring wring*)

      Hee hee ... I'm back! (*Fanfare*) Alive and well! (*SD Victory Stance*) I've been bed-ridden since Sunday night because of a really really really bad sunburn I got while canoeing (I swear, that is the last time I listen to my uncle when it comes to sunscreen). Now I'm kind of better, and I have to say that it's almost as bad the stomach virus was. Nasty stuff, but it could be worse ... after all, I could've been desanguinated by that Giant Mosquito ... but what doesn't kill me just makes me crazier (hee hee), and in any case -- I'm ba~~~~~~~ck! ^o^

      Yuna: Not only that, but you're also bingeing like the world will have no end. ^^

      Hey, I haven't had a full meal in a lo~~~ng time!

      (*the camera view -- ain't this place grand, it's got camera views -- anyway, it pans out to reveal the remains of Chatty's eating. It is a veritable wasteland of empty junk food containers, including but not limited to a package of potato chips, several bottles of soda, several cans of soda, several boxes of cookies, a box of ice cream, and a pickle jar ...*)

      Yuna: Ice cream and pickles? Hehehe ... I must make a comment on that ...

      Pickles? Where did they come from? I wasn't eating any pickles ...

      (*a nearby microwave starts going "Bleep bleep bleep". Chatty hobbles over and pulls out a bag of popcorn, which he (hai, it is this way for now ^^;;) immediately starts munching on*)

      Oh, and some good news for Jen-chan -- if you can manage to get a job at the Ben & Jerry's HQ in Vermont, you get three pints of ice cream every day for free. Kind of like an alternate percent of your salary or something. ^_^ Wouldn't we all like a job like that ...

      Yuna: Y'know, if you keep eating like that, you'll wind up looking like that scientist in Bubba's Zombie Flick.

      (*pulling the milk carton out of the fridge*) How many times do I have to tell you? (*pouring milk into glass*) His name's Bub, not Bubba, and it's not a zombie flick, it's a -- (*stops, noticing that milk is not coming out of the carton*)

      Yuna: Hmm ... out of milk?

      (*peering up into the empty carton*) Indeed.

      Yuna: Looks like you'll have to delve into your powdered milk reserves, eh?

      I suppose so. (*shrugs*) Ah well ... (*pulls out the box*) reconstituted milk is better than none at all ... (*trys to pour it, and after much shaking, two or three flakes come out*)

      (*looooooooooooooooooooong pause*)

      Now that is just sad. (*wrings labcoat*)

      Yuna: Yup yup yup.

      (*shrugs*) Oh well. I've had enough anyway. (*perks up*) Hey, is that a James Taylor recording I hear?

      Yuna: You've gotten weird, haven't you? ~.~;;

      Eh ... it may have something to do with being a guy over forty, or at least so for the moment ... this gender-switching bizness is strange indeed. ^^

      Yuna: Ah well.

      ARBITRARY END OF POST

      Hey, now that I think about it, a Mika "Got Milk?" Poster would be pretty cool ... I would buy one. And Ian-san, thank you thank you thank you for those prices. I had originally figured the manga would be somewhere around $25 (US)!
