Subject: [FanFic] [BGC] Breath Mint Crisis I (V0.3)
OK, since no one (OK, so _one_ person did) bothered to respond to my story
setting idea, I've taken to write up a small piece totally out of
context, to see if anyone will defy my .sig.
Oh, and Bert, I was busy doing research for a report, and there's always
tomorrow. ^_^

<end trailer>
In the audience, in the front third of the theater, a brown-haired young
woman jumps up with an upraised fist shouting, "Aw come on! They got
my colors all wrong! And do you believe what they did to my sensor
pods?!" Two other women on either side of her pull her back to her seat,
quietly screaming, "Shhhh!", and, "Have you forgotten where you are?"
In the last third of the theater, Kandace Otonashi, thought to
herself, *Sheesh, everybody thinks they're a Knight Saber expert
nowadays. Sigh. If only they could help my department, even if it was
just once, instead of saving ADP's ass every other week.*
"Waaaaaaahhh! It's just not fair!!"
This got a lot of angry glares from the audience, including the three
women in the front of the theater, one of which was being choked by the
other two.
"Ehehe, did I say that out loud?"
A very loud, "YES!!" came back from the theater's occupants.
"Sorry." *Sigh. It's just not fair*
And the movie started.

Author's comments:
-I know, I know, the trailer part is too technical (you probably paged
past it, right?), but I don't know any other way to show all of the
effects I want to be shown.
-Where's the plot? I'm getting to it. I only have another two weeks of
classes, then two more weeks of finals, then I'll be ready to attach the
plot that's floating in my mind, right behind that picture of ... oops,
that's private. ^_^;
-The title. What about it? I like breath mints!
-And finally, I wanted to give my main character a name with a history,
so that's why it's Kandace with a "K". But does anyone have a more
"peaceful" name other than "Otonashi"?
