Disclaimer and Author's Note: Once again, yet another random act of insantiy by yours truly. No, I do not own anybody here except for me. I only own just toys and...stuff. Yes, STUFF. *hears the murmurs around the room* No, not THAT stuff, bakayeros, posters and keychains and fanfics I write and drawings and THAT kind of stuff!

Tasuki: Oooooohhh, THOSE kind of stuff.

Tasuki, be quiet and let me continue?

Tasuki: Hai, Ayame-chan.

Thank you. *drumroll* My quest begins in search of a muse. Not that I really need one; I just want one just in case writer's block DOES happen. And yes, Ayanami_Chan is in here for a little bit as well! REad and enjoy!

AYAME-CHAN'S QUEST FOR THE PERFECT MUSE: PART ONE

Tryouts

[A puff of purple smoke appears in front of the long line of auditioners. It's Ayame-chan, sitting in a business desk with a big stack of papers on top, hacking her lungs out.]

Ayame-chan: Mou *cough* I REALLY need to *hack* get the fixed *wheeze*.

[Her auditioners stare at her, afraid.]

Tasuki: *taps on Sanosuke's shoulder in front of him* Oi, it's her...

Sanosuke (who's obviously not paying attention and staring at the various anime posters hanging on the walls around the room, gnawing on a fishbone as usual): Hmm? It's who?

Tasuki: *points at Ayame-chan who's sorting out through the stack of papers* It's HER.

[Sanosuke pales and tries to hide behind Megumi who whacks him on the head]

Megumi: Would you stop that, rooster-head?

Sanosuke: B-but, but, it's HER.

[Saying this as loud as he could, the other anime bishounen look, eep, and hide behind their woman who are in turn staring at them strangely]

Yui: *looks up from the book that she's reading and turns around* Suboshi, what are you doing?

Suboshi: *meekly* ...Anno...hiding?

[She punches him into the wall. Meanwhile, Heero uses Relena as a human shield. Ayanami_Chan pops out of nowhere and glomps onto him.]

Ayanami_Chan: *gleefully* Hee-chan!!!

[Relena tries to pull Heero away from her]

Relena: What are you doing, Ayanami_Chan?!? He's mine!!

Ayanami_Chan: *sticks out her tongue, still glomped onto Heero* Not when I'm around.

[Thus begins a tug of war with Heero as he's pulled from one side to the other reluctantly. For the first time in his life, he REALLY wants to kill himself]

Heero: *sweatbeads*...Please...somebody...

Ayanami_Chan: Mine!

Relena: Mine!

Ayanami_Chan: Mine!

Relena: Mine!

Ayanami_Chan: Mine!

Relena: Mi--

Ayame-chan: *looks up from her work* Oi, would you two STOP that and take it outside?!?

Ayanami_Chan and Relena: *pouts, teary-eyed* Datte...

Ayame-chan: *warning tone* I mean it.

Chichiri: *sweatdrops* Scary, no da...

Usagi: *munching on a sandwich, some chips, and many other various amounts of food* Mm mmrf mmhmm...

[Raijin hits her back so she spits out the food]

Raijin: Usagi-chan, you shouldn't eat too much, ya know? It's not good for your health, ya know?

Kenshin: Anno...you should say that to Miaka-dono over there as well, de gozaru. *points at Miaka who's doing the same thing*

Miaka: *looks up from her food* Hmm? Wruff??

Belldandy: Miaka, you should chew AND swallow before you speak...

Mog: *in agreement and jumps* Kupo!

Boco the Chocobo: *agrees as well and flaps his wings* Kweh, kweh!

[Tamahome and Duo stare at the two, confused]

Tamahome: I didn't understand a word they said, did you?

Duo: *shrugs* You got me.

Wufei (in the back of the line): HEY, CAN WE #$%^&@$!)^* START ALREADY?!?!?

[*Kablooee!!* An anvil smashes him flat like a pancake]

Ayame-chan: *without looking from her work* One down, nine hundred ninety nine million, nine hundred ninety nine thousand, nine hundred ninety nine more to go.

[Ayanami_Chan finally gives up on Heero and walks over to Ayame-chan's desk]

Ayanami_Chan: *points at the papers* Nani korei? *whispers* And why'd you have himn in here?

Ayame-chan: *laughs* Oh, these? They're resumes. See, I posted up an ad on the 'Net and got tons of 'em. I just realized that he was in here, too.

Ayanami_Chan: *whispers* But how'd you get them ALL here?

Ayame-chan: *whispers back* You'll see. *Evil grin*

[Noticing the look on Ayame-chan's face, Ayanami_Chan grins evilly back as well.]

Ayanami_Chan: Oooohhh, sou desu ka....

Ayame-chan: *nods her head* Hai, hai.

Chiriko: Can the auditions start yet, Ayame-san? It seems like everyone's here.

Ayame-chan: Hai, hai. *gleefully smiles* All right, minna-san! Please step right up and try out to see if you'll be the lucky one to be my emergency muse!

[All noise ceases. The anime characters stare at her in fear]

Ranma: But, but, the ad said that this was going to be auditions for the lead roles in your fanfic that you're co-writing with Celestial Senshi: Threads of Fate!!

[She bursts out into evil laughter]

Ayame-chan: Oh, that? We found 'em long ago! I put that ad up just to trick you into coming! [Horrified looks appear as the Twins burst into evil laughter again. Some of the bishounen try the doors all around only to find them locked, sealed, and magic proof.] *gleefully* And there's no escape! The only way you'll be able to leave is that I don't accept you as my muse!

[They stare at the Twins fearfully who grin maniacally]

Ayanami_Chan: Now, I'm helping out, so let's start, shall we?
