With the notable exception of the use of myself as a character, I do not own the characters in this work of fiction - they belong to Satoru Akahori, Tsukasa Kotobuki, Sotsu Agency, TV Tokyo, etc. The mysterious character that gets introduced is from another anime series, so I do not own the rights to him/her, either.

MST #2: "Denied Feeling's" HAJIMARU

Intro: "Theme from Andy's Null Space"

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
The strangest tale by far
From the far future on an all-male world
Aboard Japonessguar.

If the girls had simply sat and stared,
Their loved ones would surely die.
Six androids had blasted off that day
To rescue Lorelei, to rescue Lorelei.

The girls had made it safely aboard,
The rogue AI went nuts,
It caused the Wormhole Drive to overload
And lost the ship in flux, and lost the ship in flux.

The ship was now stuck inside this unknowable null space
With Raimu-chan, The Otaku,
The Saber Doll and Cherry,
With Bloodberry
Th' Imperial Court Sabers,
Here in Andy's Null Space.


     It was nighttime aboard the Mesopotamia, or rather, as close a facsimile of nighttime as possible in the timelessness of null-space. The shanghaied crew was worn out from the events of the day, and they were preparing to go to bed. There was just one thing keeping them from the sweet balm of blissful sleep.
     "I'm sorry Andy, but I cannot allow you to sleep in the same room as us." Cherry's voice was stern, and her arms were folded tightly across her chest.
     Andy looked like a poleaxed ox. "B-but I wasn't planning on anything perverted!" he protested, his hands outstretched in a placating gesture.
     Cherry's gaze hardened. "No, I'm sorry, but after what happened during our first fic, we cannot trust you to be in the same room as us."
     "Hmph. You three didn't seem to mind Otaru staying in the same room..." muttered Andy. "Besides, I apologized and promised to tone down the perverted comments! Isn't that enough?"
     "No."
     "If the Mesopotamia were to call us for a fanfic while we were sleeping, and we couldn't all get there in time because we're in separate rooms, what then?"
     Cherry remained adamant. "No."
     Andy tried another tack. "And if Otaru found out that you wouldn't give me a chance after I've apologized, would he be happy with you?"
     Bloodberry turned her gaze to the two arguing MSTers. "He's got a point, you know. Besides, it would reflect poorly on us if we refused to let him make amends." The voluptuous marionette paused, cracking her knuckles for effect before continuing, "And if he does try anything, we can take care of him."
     Andy sweatdropped. "Right. I guess I can take a hint. I'll find another room to sleep in. Well then, goodnight everyone." He then exited the room, leaving everyone staring at the newly empty space.
     ***
     Everyone had gone to bed, and all was quiet once more aboard the Mesopotamia. However, something was amiss. In the corridor outside the marionettes' room a tear appeared in the space-time fabric. A mysterious figure stepped out, blinking as her eyes adjusted to the gloom. Pausing only to adjust her spiky hair, she proceeded inside the sleeping chambers with the stealth of a burglar. She reemerged moments later a bit out of breath, as if she had just beat a hasty retreat. She then proceeded to the room next door, and repeated the process there. Upon emerging, she chuckled wickedly to herself.
     "This was easier than extracting a sample! That guy could sleep through a nuclear war and not even know it!" This elicited a new round of chortling from the mysterious woman. "Well, time to head back. A super-genius' work is never done!"
And with that, she stepped back into her dimensional doorway, closing it with a conveniently placed hockey stick.
     ***
     Hours later, everyone had woken up and they were preparing to face the day. Cherry was laundering everyone's clothes in the Instomatic Laundry Service. Everyone else was in the bathhouse on board.
     Fortunately, I'm the only guy here, so I don't have to worry about being naked in front of other guys. Andy thought to himself. He frowned. Damn my Western sensibilities! Oh well, now I have to figure out how to restore the others' trust in me.
     Meanwhile, on the other side of the wall, the marionettes were busy preparing for the day ahead. This of course meant the gratuitous hot springs/women's ofuro scene. The others were already relaxing in the bath when Cherry walked in from laundry duty and one additional "project."
     "The anti-pervert sensors have been installed," she said as she turned on a nearby shower head and began soaping up her slender body. "We should be able to bathe undisturbed."
     "Ne, Cherry, why would that be a problem?" Lime inquired.
     "Yeah, it's not like he hasn't seen us in the buff before," a defiantly nude Bloodberry stated. "I'll wager fifty ryo that he's gotten frisky with himself fantasizing over whatever nudie shots the animators decided to put in to those anime series of us that he was going on about yesterday." She would've continued further, but the sound of the faucet shutting off harshly cut her off. She looked in the direction of the sound and found Cherry seething in barely controlled anger, several veins clearly visible on her forehead.
     "So you don't have a problem with his perversion, do you?" growled Cherry.
     "No, because I have nothing to be ashamed of, washboard-queen."
     "WHAT DID YOU SAY?"
     "Oh, pipe down and get in the bath before you get all wrinkled from stress." Bloodberry retorted, causing steam to pour out of Cherry's ears.
     The other marionettes sweatdropped. "You did that on purpose, didn't you, Bloodberry?" Luchs asked.
     Bloodberry smirked. "Well, yeah." Her expression turned serious as she looked at Cherry. "I didn't mean anything serious by it. I just wanted to relieve some stress now in case the Mesopotamia calls us into action again."
     Cherry was not amused. "Well you didn't have to do it at my expense," she fumed as she lowered herself into the water. She hadn't been in more than a few minutes when the Mesopotamia broke in on the PA system.
     >THIS IS YOUR TWO-MINUTE WARNING. THE FANIC WILL START IN TWO MINUTES. PLEASE BE IN FRONT OF THE THEATER IN TWO MINUTES.
     "Aww...And I was just getting comfy" Lime pouted. They all scrambled to get dressed and ran up the stairs to the theater. They bumped into Andy on the way there. He seemed to be trying to get his shoes on as he was running. He wasn't having an easy time of it.
     "Ne, Andy" Lime said in mid-stride, "why don't you wait until you get to the theater to put your shoes on? You wouldn't trip nearly as often."
     Andy picked himself up from the ground again. "Oww...thanks I think." He then ran to the theater after the others, where he proceeded to finish getting dressed.
     Luchs was addressing the Mesopotamia when he got there. "So what do you have lined up for us today?"
     "Yeah, Messie, tell us what we're going to see!" exclaimed Lime.
     >ALREADY STARTING IN ON THE CUTESY NAMES, HUH? VERY WELL. SINCE YOU SOMEHOW MANAGED TO KEEP YOUR SANITY INTACT AFTER THE LAST FIC, I'VE DECIDED TO KICK IT UP A NOTCH.
     "BAM!" Andy said in a perfect imitation of TV chef Emeril Lagasse. Deep in the Mesopotamia's core, certain wires short-circuited. The rogue AI, however, continued as if nothing had happened.
     >YOUR FIC TODAY HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO YOU BY ANIME WRITER 2000. IT HAS BEEN CAREFULLY CHOSEN FOR MAXIMUM PSYCHE SCARRING POTENTIAL. THAT'S ALL I AM PREPARED TO SAY AT THIS POINT.
     "Well, look at the Mess we're in now." Andy said with a sardonic grin.
     >ENOUGH! GET IN THERE AND WATCH THAT FIC!
     "But we haven't had the signal to start." Luchs replied with a smirk. At that point, the signal to start blared.
     >HEEEEEEEEEERE'S JOHNNY!
     "It's fanfic time!" Everyone yelled before heading into the theater.


(In the middle of the theater's first row, five seats await our stalwart heroes. Unfortunately, Bloodberry, Cherry, Andy, Lime and Luchs were all that could be found. They sat in the theater in that order.)

CHERRY: I hope that this is better than last time.
ANDY: I doubt it. I've only seen two things written by Anime Writer 2000, and only one is appropriate to your timeline. Unfortunately, there is no way for the reader to know this, since her fanfics have subsequently been deleted from Fanfiction.net.
MESOPOTAMIA (annoyed, on PA system): WELL, YOU CAN KISS THE FOURTH WALL GOODBYE WITH THAT COMMENT.
(Everyone sweatdrops.)
BLOODBERRY: Wow. Our second MST hasn't even started yet, and we've broken the fourth wall. That has to be a record.
LIME (looking around, confused): Why are you saying that the fourth wall has been broken? None of the four walls here seem broken to me. (Everyone else face-faults.)
LUCHS (getting back into her seat with the others): Never mind that now, the fic's starting!

> Denied

ANDY (Lt. Yamamoto): But Captain -
BLOODBERRY (Justy Ueki Tylor, 20) Also denied!

> Feeling's

LIME: Who is Mr. Feeling, and what's in his possession?
CHERRY (Vegeta): What…is…this…feeling?

> PG-13 Romance/Humor

ANDY: That's kind of odd since the fic is about LIME HAVING AN ABORTION!
(The others stare at Andy in shock as a cold wind blows through the theater.)
LUCHS (large sweatdrop): Well, that's something you don't see everyday.
CHERRY (turning green): I think I'm going to be sick...
LIME (looking at everyone's reaction to the revelation): I have a bad feeling about this...

> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ANDY (Jack): You've got to promise me that you'll go on, that you'll survive. Never let go of that promise.
CHERRY (Rose): I'll never let go, Jack. I'll never let go...
BLOODBERRY: Too bad this fic didn't strike an iceberg.
LIME (lookout): Iceberg, right ahead!

> A/N

LIME: Ano...
LUCHS (to Lime): Uh...no. A/N stands for "Author's Notes." The author uses this space to explain certain elements of the fic and to give commentary on his or her work.
LIME (embarrassed laugher): Oh. I knew that!
(The sound of kyoshigi sticks banging rhythmically is heard somewhere.)

> Nihao!

CHERRY: Apparently, the author is learning Chinese.
ANDY: Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the only Chinese word that Anime Writer 2K knew.

> Anime Writer 2000 here, yeah my second fic.

BLOODBERRY (AW2K): Which explains why it sucks.

> A little depressive

CHERRY (cross): "Depressive" is the wrong word to use here.
LUCHS: And just what word would you use here?
CHERRY (cross): "Immoral," "cruel," "nasty," "wrong," "inappropriate," and "insensitive." And those are the nice words that I have for it!
ANDY: Gee, pro-life much?
LIME: Are you suggesting that "abortion" has something to do with life?
ANDY: Well, with how babies are made, at the very least.
LIME: Huh?
(Luchs whispers into her ear.)
LIME: What? But Otaru told me once that babies are a good thing. Why would someone want to stop a baby from being born?
BLOODBERRY: Look, we can debate the morality of abortion later. Right now we have a fic to watch.

> Saber Marionette "J" L/O Fic.

LIME: LOL!
BLOODBERRY: LMAO!
CHERRY: ROTFLOL!
LUCHS: ROTFLMAO!
ANDY: What? This is a J-Lo fic?
(The others face-fault.)

> Theres not to much of them in the first place so I tought

LIME (Tweety): I taw a puddy tat!
(The others face-fault again.)
LUCHS: Man, if we keep face-faulting at this rate, we're going to wear out our warranty. (The others stare at her nervously.) What?

> I could give it a shot & write a short one.I'm

CHERRY (AW2K): completely incapable of using spaces and apostrophes correctly.

> probably totally out of character

ALL: Probably?!

> well I tried as much as possible to stay in character,

LUCHS (AW2K): But I'm just as bad at that as I am at avoiding run-on sentences.

> for Kamis sake

CHERRY (AW2K): I'd like to learn how to use apostrophes!
ANDY: I wonder if Urd, Skuld and Belldandy know that she's invoking their father's name.
OTHERS (flatly): Wrong Kami!
ANDY: Oh, then she's invoking Piccolo's other half?
(The other marionettes look at him with stares cold enough to literally freeze him. A cold wind blows through the theater.)
ANDY (Rodney Dangerfield, from inside ice prison): I tell ya I get no respect, 'ya hear? No respect!

> I'd never actually seen the show but I'll try my best .

BLOODBERRY: In other words, expect piss poor characterization.
LUCHS: Well, at least she's honest.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: Honest?
ANDY (George Carlin): At least she's honest about being completely full of shit.

> My fav. characters in SM"J" are Lime & Otaru they'd make such a cute couple.

CHERRY: Another run-on. That makes two so far.
LIME: WAI! WAI! Another author likes me 'n Otaru as a couple!
BLOODBERRY (flatly): You WOULD like that, wouldn't you?

> Disclaimer:

LIME: As opposed to "Datclaimer."
(The others silently cast nervous stares in her direction.)

> I SWEAR

LUCHS (person swearing in a witness): Do you swear -
BLOODBERRY (Curly of the Three Stooges): No, but I know all the woids!

> THIS FANFIC CAME TO ME IN A DREAM

CHERRY: More like a nightmare.

> AND I THINK IT'S AN ORIGINAL IDEA

ANDY: Just because it's original doesn't necessarily mean that it's a good idea. There is a difference between the two.

> THERE ISN'T MUCH SM "J" IN F.F

BLOODBERRY: You mean to say that the 62 fanfics now on Fanfiction.net, in addition to BakaMattSu's "Saber Marionette J vs. M" qualifies as "not much?"
ANDY (to Bloodberry): At the time she wrote it, there were only 14-15 fics, and "J vs. M" was in its infancy.

> MOSTLY THEY ARE ALL YAOI

LIME: I may not be very bright, but even I can tell that 25% is not "mostly!"
ANDY (to Lime): Again, at the time that she wrote it, it was the case.
CHERRY: Why are you defending that creep?
ANDY: Hey! I'm not fond of this fic either. I'm just keeping things in perspective here!

> BUT I'LL SPARK THINGS UP A LITTLE BIT

ALL (except Andy): Ouchies!
ANDY (at the same time, imitating Pikachu): PIKA!
(A monitor rises from a hidden compartment beneath the MSTers, displaying a large sweatdrop. The MST group sweatdrops in response as the monitor lowers back into the compartment.)
LUCHS: Who would've thought that the Mesopotamia could sweatdrop?

> OH & I DONT OWN SABER MARIONETTE 'J' IN ANY WAY

ALL: You waited till now to say that?

> SO DONT SUE ME ,

ALL (singing): Sue you, sue me! Sue us for pennies! 'Cause that's all that we have!

> ALL FLAMES & REVIEWS ARE WELCOME.

LIME: Sorry, we don't do flames or reviews. Will you take a MST instead?

> Denied

ANDY (Lt. Yamamoto): But Capt -
BLOODBERRY (Justy Ueki Tylor, 20) Also denied!
CHERRY: All right, I think that it's time for you two to find another joke!

> Feeling's Sumarry

LIME: Oh, so they sue Mary! (Another round of kyoshigi banging ensues.)
LUCHS (dictionary entry): Sue, Mary n. - 1) name of a genre of fanfiction in which the author creates an omniscient, omnipotent character for the sole purpose of boinking the author's favorite characters. The character usually dies in the process of saving the world from imminent destruction. 2) name of the archetype character for such a fanfic. See also Sue, Marty and Sue, Marry.
ANDY (large sweatdrop): Uhh…I don't think that a dictionary would use the term "boinking."
LUCHS: So?

> ( cliff hanger):

BLOODBERRY: Yes folks, Cliff Hanger has now become the name of a fanfiction genre!
CHERRY: That was lame.

> Lime & Otaru have always shared a friendly realitionship ,

ANDY: Yes folks, Anime Writer 2000 is the master of stating the obvious!
BLOODBERRY (being restrained by Cherry): Lemme at him! He stole my sentence structure!
ANDY (large sweatdrop): But I thought you were done using that sentence structure...

> but suddenly it has gotten pretty deep & complicated , whats the cause , if they didn't
> have a romantic realitionship in the first place , well read & find out.

ANDY: Cherry, how many run-ons are we at now?
CHERRY: I think we're at four, but there are so many sentences smashed together that it's hard to keep track.
BLOODBERRY: In other words, this whole thing is one long run-on, huh?
CHERRY: That appears to be the case.

> Warning :

(The group makes klaxon noises.)
LIME (VO from C&C: Red Alert 2 autoplay): Warning! Warning! Stupid fanfic approaching!

> Allot of fluff & depressive Themes not for anyone under 13.

CHERRY (crossly): Themes not for anyone, really.
ANDY: Man, all those run-ons must be interfering with AW2K's capitalization skills. (Cherry glares at him.) Well, someone has to take over grammar and spelling criticism while you're busy venting about the fic's theme.

> Denied

ANDY (Wayne): No stairway? Denied!

> Feeling's

ALL (singing): Feeeeeeeeelings!

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ANDY (singing): Rocky Mountain High!

> It was about 6:00 AM in the morning , as Otaru slowly woke up with a killer headeache

LUCHS (Folger's commercial narrator): We've secretly replaced Otaru Mamiya's crystal meth with Folger's Crystals. Let's see if he notices the difference.
ANDY (Otaru on Folger's Coffee): AAAAUGH!
OTHERS (flatly, large sweatdrops): Yeah, he noticed.

> *Ahh,what the hell happened last night*

ALL (Ryoga): And where the hell am I?
(The group breaks into insane laughter.)

> Otaru thought while letting out a sigh,

ANDY: At least he let out a sigh.
BLOODBERRY: Unlike a certain marionette who feels the need to heave a sigh!
CHERRY: HEY!

> what he didn't notice was that he had a sleeping "Naked" Lime in his embrance

LIME: Why would I say "Naked?"
(The kyoshigi sticks are heard smacking once more.)
BLOODBERRY: Lime, you're trying too hard.
LUCHS: But it is a relevant point. Why would the word "naked" be in quotes and capitalized?
ANDY: Because the author finds the phrase "Naked Lime" amusing? (Smacked by Cherry.) *WHACK!* OW! I didn't intend that remark to be perverted! I was merely speculating!

> sleeping peasfully like an angel

LIME: And so, my sleep was full of peas.
CHERRY: Lime! How dare you bring up such a disgusting subject?
ANDY (cluster of sweatdrops): Uh, I think she was referring to the vegetable...
CHERRY (sheepishly): Oh. I knew that!

> as her hair strands were all over her messed up hair

LIME (Mojo Jojo): This has been a message from the Department of Redundancy Department. So said because the Department of Redundancy Department wished this information to be known. And wanting this information to be known, the Dep-
OTHERS (shouting over Lime): All right! Enough!
BLOODBERRY (shaking her head in disgust): I swear, she watches way too much TV.
LUCHS: Well, she's like a child in that respect.

> "Huh , Lime what are you doing in my bed "Naked" he yelled at her.

LUCHS (computer output): >>Compilation Error AnimeWriterFanfic.cpp line 45: " expected.
BLOODBERRY (AW2K as CS student): Why the hell does it want a quotation mark?

> "Hmm, Oh, ohayo Otaru" said a drowsy Lime lovingly." Lime, get out of my bed & put
> some clothes on now" yelled Otaru harshly.

LUCHS: Welcome to OOC-ville. Population: Otaru Mamiya.

> "But ,

BLOODBERRY (Delenn): I but, you but, he/she buts...
ANDY (large sweatdrop): That's the last time I let you watch Babylon 5.

> Otaru you said you

LUCHS (Lime): Were going to throw yourself off of Japoness Fuji the next time I woke up "Naked" next to you.
CHERRY: Ordinarily I'd yell at you about that comment, but here I'm actually in agreement.

> loved me" said a schoked Lime.

ANDY (Pikachu): PIKA!
BLOODBERRY: Enough with the Pikachu joke!
PETER SUZUKI (over the Mesopotamia's PA system): It's bad enough that the marionettes have to suffer through the author's misspelling of "shocked," but do you have to steal my MST material as well?
MESOPOTAMIA (annoyed, through PA system): DAMMIT, I JUST FINISHED REPAIRING THE FOURTH WALL!

> "I did not say that now Lime I'm going to say this one more time get out now" yelled
> Otaru.

CHERRY (teacher): We have a special guest with us here today, class. His name is Mr. Run-on. He's going to talk to you about the dangers of using bad grammar. Say hi to Mr. Run-on, kids.
ANDY (Mr. Run-on): Hi, kids!
LIME (student, at the top of her lungs): HI, MR. RUN-ON! (Everyone covers his or her ears, wincing in pain.)
ALL (trying to recover from hearing loss): Oww...
LIME: Oops! Eh...heh heh...

> He looked at her , her esmerald green eyes all watery filled with tears she was fighting
> to hold ,

LIME (Mortal Kombat voice): It has begun...
BLOODBERRY (another Mortal Kombat voice): MORTAL KOMBAT!
LIME (Mortal Kombat voice): FIGHT!
(The group starts imitating the music from Mortal Kombat.)
ANDY (Mortal Kombat voice): TEST YOUR MIGHT!
CHERRY (ditto): LIU KANG...SUB-ZERO...SCORPION...JOHNNY CAGE...
LUCHS (ditto): FLAWLESS VICTORY!
ANDY: Riight…now that that's over with...

> he felt sorry & ashamed at her

CHERRY: Because the author decided to put her in this fic.

> for a second but before he could say anithing else to Lime she ran out the door with the
> sheet around her body ,

ANDY: Well, at least she's not running out "Naked."
OTHERS (flatly): No kidding.

> he had hurt her deliquite

ANDY (typical deli commercial announcer): Because there's nothing quite like the taste of a Deliquite Deli sandwich.

> childish feeling's that could be easily hurt, he was going after her when he realized he
> didn't have any clothes on either.*

(Everyone sweatdrops.)
ANDY (Otaru as President Clinton): I did not have sexual relations with that Marionette!
(Otaru's marionettes scoot away from Andy.)
LUCHS: Well that's the second surprise of this fic...
CHERRY (to Luchs): You mean that Andy's a pervert? That's hardly a surprise, especially given our first MST.

> No does this mean, it cant be

LIME (Otaru as Vegeta): Th-that's IMPOSSIBLE!

> I dont remember doing anithing* "Oh Lime ,Im I more
> dissopointed or sorry for you , I cant bear to look at you after what suposedly happened
> , whatever happened,

ANDY: Uhh, just one question - are marionettes even EQUIPPED for sex?
BLOODBERRY: Hold on, I'll check! (tries to look underneath her bodysuit.)
CHERRY (moving to stop Bloodberry): Bloodberry! NOT NOW!
(Andy's nose bursts open in a spray of blood.)
OTHERS: EWWW!
ANDY (massive nosebleed): Shad nup and help me cundrol by node!
(The Mesopotamia immediately stuffs Andy's nose full of cotton.)
ANDY (through stuffed nose): Thangs, I fink...

> I'll just have to ignore her,she's a big girl she can take care of her mistakes & feelings ,
> the night didn't mean anithing , she has to understan that I don't love her or do I"

ANDY: Yep, Otaru's definitely OOC. He's portrayed as a victim of Tenchi Syndrome in the series, particularly in Saber Marionette J to X.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: HEY!
ANDY: But it's the truth, is it not?
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: Well, yeah. If you say so...
(A beat.)
LIME: What's "Tenchi Syndrome?"
(The others face-fault.)
ANDY (as he and the others get back into their seats): Remind me to introduce you to the wonders of the Tenchi Muyou! universe sometime.

> "I'll just have to clear my head & see if I can remember,what really happened ."

BLOODBERRY (Otaru as President Reagan): Well...I just don't recall...
ANDY: You mean to say that Otaru has Alzheimer's? (The others stare at him nervously.) What?

> " How could she, she does not if I love her or not she just cant come up to me naked

ANDY: That's "Naked!"
CHERRY: Could you please stop with that "Naked" bit?
ANDY (sweatdrops): Sorry...

> & expect me to love her"*Anyway , I never said I loved her yesterday or atleast I dont
> remember saying anithing , Im sorry Lime , I'll just have to clear my head first before I
> can talk to you again ,

LUCHS: Looks like Mamiya's been lighting the peace pipe once too often.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: HEY!

> we can steal be friends right*

LIME: Stealing friends? Stealing people's important things hurts them. And friends are important. Why would you want to steal friends?
ANDY: Good question.

> thought a very confused Otaru.

BLOODBERRY: He's not the only one.
(Luchs opens her mouth to speak.)
CHERRY: Luchs, not one word about Otaru-sama and drugs! I mean it!
(Luchs shuts her mouth with a large sweatdrop hovering near her head.)

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ALL (singing): THE HIIIIIIILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF MUSIC!

> " Lime, whats the matter" said a worried Cherry.

LIME: You lost your apostrophe that's what's the matter.
CHERRY: Where? (Looks around. Lime giggles.) Sorry, I just had to do that.
ANDY: That's okay, you saved Anime Writer 2000 the trouble.
(Cherry face-faults as the kyoshigi sticks beat once more.)

> " Yeah Whats up Limechan" said Blodberry.

BLOODBERRY: Geez, can't she spell my name right?

> " Otaru, he said he loved me last night ,but today he yelled at me & told me to leave ,
> he was angry"mumbled a sobbing Lime.

ANDY (Lime as Mumbles): BigBoydidit! BigBoydidit!
LUCHS: Well that's a sob story...
(The kyoshigi sticks smack rhythmically once more.)

> " Oh, Lime , how could he do this to you" said Blodberry getting really angry at Otaru.

LIME: That's BLOODBERRY!
BLOODBERRY: Damn straight!

> "Yeah he knows that would hurt you too much,I think its time I

LUCHS (Cherry): Had him fixed!
OTHERS (especially Andy): LUCHS!

> had a serious talk with him"said Cherry.

LUCHS (large sweatdrop on her head): Oh that's different.

> " Blodberry take care of Lime while I talk to Otaru OK" said Cherry.

OTARU'S MARIONETTES: THAT'S BLOODBERRY!

> " Ok " said Blodberry holding a sobbing Lime.

CHERRY: It's BLOODBERRY! B-L-O-O-D-B-E-R-R-Y! Why can't you get it right?!
ANDY: Umm…I don't think that's going to work...

> " Dont worry Kid, it's gonna be OK , now tell me what happened last night" said a
> worried Blodberry.

LIME (AW2K): Well, I used up all my apostrophes on the word "feelings," so I have to write my fanfic without them, and I'm running low on 'o's, so I cut back on the number I use in your name, and I never did learn what a "run-on" is, and I'm running low on sleep so I keep misspelling words but I have an abundance of spaces, so I'm putting them before and after my commas.
OTHERS: .........
LUCHS: Lime, you just summarized the problems in this fic in one long run-on yourself.
CHERRY (disgusted): Not quite, she did leave one problem with this fic out...
ANDY: Let's not start that rant up again, please, Cherry.

> " Otaru, he was kinda sad last night, I went to comfort him while he was drinking
> something & "

ANDY (Lime): Watching Saber Marionette J to X.
BLOODBERRY: OOH OOH! The Saber Marionette Drinking Game!
(The others face-fault.)
CHERRY (as she and the others get back into their seats): Have any of you ever seen Otaru-sama drinking sake?
ANDY: Nope, as far as I know, the only people getting drunk in the J continuum are Bloodberry, Panther, Hanagata, and the self-proclaimed genius from downtown Japoness.
LIME: You mean, Gennai-jii-chan?
ANDY (Regis Philban): You got it, for 64,000 ryo!
BLOODBERRY: If he says anything about lifelines, I'm gonna kill him!

> Lime was cut by Blodberry.

LUCHS (AW2K as Lime): "Blodberry," please put down that knife...AAAHH!
BLOODBERRY: Heh, that'll teach you to misspell my name!
(The group makes Psycho noises.)

> " Thats OK Lime I guess the rest , how could he hurt you so deeply Lime, I better

LUCHS (Bloodberry): Perform a lobotomy on him...
OTHERS: LUCHS!
LUCHS (Bloodberry): WITHOUT anesthetic!
OTHERS (turning green): EWW!!!!

> get you to bed" said Bodberry.

CHERRY: Speak for yourself, Anime Writer 2000.
BLOODBERRY (raising an eyebrow): Well, at least she misspelled my name in a way that was complimentary to me this time! (The others face-fault.)

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

BLOODBERRY (flight attendant): Ladies and gentlemen, the captain has turned on the "fasten seat belt" sign. We do ask that you return to your seats with seat belts fastened and return all tray tables to their full upright and locked position until the captain has determined that it is safe to turn off the seat belt sign.
ANDY (passenger): Oh, that wasn't the real reason for the turbulence! *wicked grin*
(Andy is promptly beaten to a bloody pulp by the group.)

> " Otaru, tell me what happened last night " said a furious Cherry.
> " Why should I tell you Cherry" said a frustated Otaru.

ANDY (Cherry as Icchan-san): Because if you don't, I'll make you play the Batsu Game! (The others stare at him nervously.) What?
BLOODBERRY (under her breath): Angelic Layer freak...
ANDY: I heard that!

> " Otaru, Lime , well shes very hurt

LUCHS: Those self-inflicted stab wounds weren't helping any, either.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: LUCHS!
ANDY: Feeling dark today, Luchs?
LUCHS: Why, yes, I do believe so.

> I think you should talk to her & clear things up between you two " said Cherry.
> " I don't want to talk to her , she should't have done what she did last night." said Otaru.

CHERRY: Absolutely right!
ANDY: After all, this is a PG-13 anime. (The others nod their heads in agreement.)
(A beat.)
CHERRY: She should've let me take care of Otaru-sama!
(The others face-fault.)

> " Otaru, I knew you were flushe last night ,

ANDY (as everyone returns to their seats): So that explains why Lime sucked him dry!
CHERRY: ANDY!
BLOODBERRY: Then shouldn't that have read "slushie?"
CHERRY: BLOODBERRY!
ANDY: After your last comment, Cherry, you are hardly qualified to criticize our comments.

> she didn't just do that "thing" all by herself

LIME: Well that's not entirely true. You don't have to be with someone else to "do that thing."
(Everyone stares in shock at Lime.)
LIME: What? With the way Bloodberry talks all the time, I was bound to pick something up! ^_^
(The others face-fault.)

> if you agreed & confudes her " said Cherry.

LIME (as the others return to their seats): Whatever "confudes" means.

> " There was something else, she was just friendly & wanted to comfort you while you
> were depressed & you were drunk so you just told her you loved her to make out with
> her ,

LUCHS: Hmph. Typical men. Always willing to do or say whatever is necessary to get into a woman's knickers. (Andy gets a large sweatdrop on his head, but remains silent.)

> she wasn't gonna say know if she belived you & that was the case, she loves you
> with all her heart just like the rest of us & she really thought it was serious but when
> you admitted it was your fault you still blame her , thats very mean Otaru, you should

BLOODBERRY: All hail Cherry, Queen of Rants.
CHERRY: And all hail Anime Writer 2000, Queen of Run-ons.

> " Oh, how do you know what really happened Cherry you weren't there " said an angry
> Otaru.

CHERRY: Forgetting the proper punctuation of questions.

> " Because Im not blind Otaru" said Cherry Walking away.

BLOODBERRY: Cherry IS Walking, Texas Ranger!
ANDY: Just as long as she doesn't start singing like Chuck Norris...
CHERRY: HEY!

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ANDY, LUCHS & LIME (Yakko, Wakko & Dot): Boingy boingy boingy boingy boingy boingy boingy boingy boingy!
BLOODBERRY (singing): It's time for Animaniacs!
CHERRY: No it's not!

> After a few weeks Lime had almost recovered

LUCHS: But then the computer virus that Hess injected into her adapted to her defenses and erased her Maiden Circuit, rendering her a blithering idiot.
LIME & ANDY: HEY! (They look at each other in surprise.)
BLOODBERRY: But how is that different from normal?
LIME & ANDY: HEY! (They look at each other in surprise again.)
LIME: Ne, Andy, why are you getting mad at an insult to me?
ANDY: Uh...er...well, let's just say that I have my preferences. (Lime blushes.)
BLOODBERRY: Oh, so you've got a Lolita complex, eh?
ANDY (indignant): No, I don't! (Blushing) I just happen to like Lime, that's all.
BLOODBERRY: Sure. Whatever. (With Cherry) HE-N-TA-I.

> but everytime she asked Otaru to forgive her (yes she taught it was her fault)

ANDY (mock shock): You mean it's not San Andreas' fault? (Another round of kyoshigi goodness ensues.)
OTHERS: Huh??
(Andy face-faults.)
ANDY (getting back into his seat): I'll have to explain that one sometime.

> Otaru just ignored her & walked away & that really hurt her.

ANDY (Lime): Otaru, are you picking on Lime?! (Lime looks at him in confusion, as if unsure whether to blush at the compliment or beat him senseless for "picking on Otaru." The others, however, look at him the way those kids in SMJ ep. 4 looked at Cherry after her fantasy, and even start backing away.) What?

> * Can't he just forgive me for whatever I did wrong , cant he just tell me so I can say
> sorry for it , he just stares at me angrily & doesn' t say anithing but why* Lime asked
> herself sobbing .

LIME: I thought I asked "Can't he just forgive me for whatever I did wrong, can't he just tell me so I can-"
(Luchs puts her hand over Lime's mouth.)
LUCHS (Lime): Shut up.
OTHERS (bored): Yaaaaaay...

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ANDY (George Jetson on a jackhammer): J-J-J-J-J-Jane s-s-s-s-stop t-t-t-t-t-this c-c-c-c-crazy t-t-t-t-t-thiiiiiiiiiing!

> * Hum, Lime sure is acting strangely lately

LUCHS: She forgot to go to acting class today!
CHERRY (Otaru): Lime, did you forget to go to acting class today?
BLOODBERRY (Lime): Oops! Heh heh! Silly me!
LIME & ANDY: HEY! (They look at each other in confusion once more, then just shrug and turn back to watching the fic.)

> , something is wrong & I think she knows & doesn't want to tell me, pooe thing

LIME (Mr. T): I pity da pooe foo who don't know how to spell "poor"!
(The others get large sweatdrops on their heads, but remain silent.)

> she must be very confused but I dont think shes just sick , she's lost her apettite & she's
> getting sick allot lately this last 3 months, my opinion lime is preagnant* thought a

BLOODBERRY (Bloodberry from SMJ ep. 11): OH
CHERRY (Cherry from SMJ ep. 11): MY
LIME (Lime from SMJ ep. 11): GOD-
ANDY (Hanagata from SMJ ep. 11): -DESS!
LUCHS (to Andy): Be glad you have the disclaimer up there, or Kosuke Fujishima would have your ass in court.
MESOPOTAMIA (annoyed, on PA system): YOU GUYS ARE ON TRACK TO BREAK THE RECORD FOR "MOST FOURTH WALL FRACTURES IN ONE FIC."

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ANDY (drunk frat boy): Woah, I'm wasted man!
LIME (friend): How many Japoness-Fuji's do you see?
ANDY (drunk frat boy): Uhhh......50?

> * Why , why should I have this child it's not going to be loved by it's daddy

BLOODBERRY: Who's your daddy?! (The others stare at her nervously.) What?

> , it's not a wanted baby, just like me I'm not wanted either & I dont think I would make
> a very good mommy *

ANDY: Now the fic has entered the stereotypical zone.
CHERRY: But that's not stereotypical of us.
ANDY: No, but it is stereotypical of abortion fiction.
CHERRY (disgusted): Oh.

> Lime was really depressed so only 1 thought came to her mind * Loose the baby*

LUCHS: Look out! The baby's loose!
ANDY: Oh no! It's going to wreck the city!
BLOODBERRY (poorly dubbed): It's Godzilla! (Her mouth continues to move for the next minute.)
CHERRY: WAAAAH!
LIME (to Bloodberry): Shouldn't that be (poorly dubbed) "It's a mother Ponta!" or something?
(A beat. A crock-pot falls out of Null Space and onto Bloodberry's head.)

> & that's what she was going to do as much as it hurt her.

ANDY (Kenshin): She was going to go do it, that she was.
OTHERS (dizzied Kenshin): ARARARARARARARARA! (Andy gets a cluster of sweatdrops on his head as he glares silently at the others.)

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ANDY: Man, I wouldn't have thought that Madonna's bra would be so popular. (The other marionettes look at him with stares cold enough to literally freeze him. A cold wind blows through the theater.) Remind me never to take a vacation to the Antarctic.

> " Otaru this is really serious , Lime is going to be a mommy because of you,& it's part
> of your responsability to be that baby's father, now I don't even know where Lime is ,
> she might be hurt more than she already is please I beg you, forgive her for whatever
> she did to you & help her" pleaded a criying Cherry to a shocked Otaru.

LUCHS: After a lecture like that, she's crying?
CHERRY (muttering to herself): It's only a fanfic. It's only a fanfic. It's only a fanfic.

> " I remember now it wasn't her fault it was all mine , oh I'm sorry Cherry " said Otaru.

OTARU'S MARIONETTES (Kaname Chidori's fan club): HE'S BACK IN CHARACTER!
LUCHS: You mean he's off those drugs he's been on the entire fic? (Otaru's marionettes face-fault.)
ANDY: Luchs, remind me never to show them Full Metal Panic ever again.
LUCHS: Right.

> " Don't be sorry to her you should be sorry to Lime" said Blodberry.

ANDY (AW2K as Otaru): Lime, I'm sorry I put you in this fanfic.
BLOODBERRY (as Lime, Cherry and her return to their seats): And she misspelled my name again!
OTHERS (to Bloodberry, flatly): Get over it.

> " Yeah , I'll go find her right now " said Otaru leaving.

LUCHS (Otaru, singing): 'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane! Don't know when I'll be back again!
(The others stare at her in nervous silence.)

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ANDY: It's Hanagata's zipper during one of his attempts to assault Otaru! (Andy is promptly knocked "into orbit" by the marionettes.) I'm not getting paid enough for thiiiiiiiiiiis! (He disappears in a twinkle of light.)

> "AHH" screamed a sobbing Lime as she

BLOODBERRY: turned into Beavis. (The others look at her with stares cold enough to literally freeze her. A cold wind blows through the theater.)

> hit herself very hard on her stomach .

BLOODBERRY (large sweatdrop): Oh. I stand corrected.
ANDY (falling back down into his seat): WOOOAAH I CAN SEE MY HOUSE FROM HEEEERRREEEE-OOF!

> After a few more punches she had lost be baby , this was something unforgivable.

ANDY: Okay, forget whether or not it's possible for marionettes to have sex. Is it even possible for marionettes to get pregnant, much less have an abortion?
(The others think for a moment.)
CHERRY: I wouldn't think so, not unless marionettes had a significant portion of their bodies composed of biological material.
ANDY: That's what I thought.

> " Lime where are you "

BLOODBERRY (Otaru as Shaggy): Limey-doo, where are you?
LIME (Scooby-doo): Rover rhere!

> Otaru was shocked by the sight of Lime unconcious on the floor pale & with blood all
> over her feet & her clothes.

ANDY: I guess Lime didn't notice that it was "That Time of the Month™."
(Cherry knees him in the crotch. He spits out a couple of extra large walnuts.)
ANDY (one octave higher, pointing a finger at Cherry): You win! (Faints.)
LUCHS: And there was much rejoicing.
OTHERS (bored): Yaaaay.

> " No , Lime how could you " said sofltly otaru

LIME: Who's "sofltly"?
CHERRY: And how do you say something "otaru"?

> as he picked her uncouncious Lime of the floor & brought her home.

OTARU'S MARIONETTES: AAARRRGH! OTARU HAD A SEX CHANGE!
(Luchs sweatdrops.)
ANDY (regaining consciousness): So Lime's an aristocrat?
OTHERS: Huh?
ANDY: AW2K calls her "Lime of the Floor."
(The others face-fault.)

> A few hours later Cherry came out of Lime's room very sad. " Otaru, she lost the baby ,
> gomen" said a criying Cherry.

ALL: IT TOOK HER THAT LONG TO FIGURE IT OUT?

> " No but how could she"

CHERRY (Otaru): forget how to close a question with a question mark?
ANDY: Cherry, don't make fun of Lime, please.
CHERRY (large sweatdrop): Like you have any right to complain.

> said Otaru.

LUCHS: Coming down off a bad acid trip.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: LUCHS!

> " Otaru listen to me , she only did it because she felt betrayed by you she didn't feel
> loved & that really hurt her alot , she felt you would't love the baby & she didn't want
> the child not to be loved & never to be wanted

LUCHS: Yeah, Otaru! It's all your fault!
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: Luchs, if you don't stop badmouthing Otaru right now...
ANDY (to Luchs): My, they're touchy, ne?
OTARU'S MARIONETTES (to Andy): You stay out of this!

> & she was all alone & scared when she did it

ANDY: Because she was afraid of getting caught masturbating over Otaru.
(Twelve gallons of freezing water are promptly dumped on Andy.)
ANDY (frigid): I g-g-g-g-g-g-g-guess I passed the hentai joke limit again, huh?

> If you would have gotten there sooner No it's not your fault ,

BLOODBERRY: Okay, so Cherry criticizes Otaru for not getting there fast enough, then says that it's not his fault?
CHERRY (muttering to herself): It's only a fanfic. It's only a fanfic. It's only a fanfic.

> she was scared of you & depressed

LUCHS: Then she should've taken her Prozac!
CHERRY (flatly): Honestly, Luchs, what is it with you and drugs?

> you know I would have gotten depressed to If I

ANDY: Had been standing under a pile driver.
(Various cooking implements fall out of Null Space and onto the heads of Cherry, Bloodberry, and Luchs.)
CHERRY (muttering): That has got to be the worst pun I have ever heard...
BLOODBERRY (muttering): Seesh! He's worse than Hana-ko when it comes to puns!
LUCHS (muttering): Man, he sucks at puns!
LIME (confused): Uwe? What's everyone mumbling about? What does Andy's comment have to do with punning?
LUCHS (to Lime): We'll explain later...

> was her & with her childish mind it's pretty hard for her,

ANDY: I'd make an ecchi comment here, but I want to live to see tomorrow.
OTHERS: Yes, please spare us. (Andy sweatdrops.)

> so dont be mad at her please

CHERRY: You should be mad at Anime Writer 2000 for dreaming up this fic.

> she lost alot of blood,I know you admitted it was your fault but you just weren't
> thinking right I know you love her " said Cherry.

BLOODBERRY (Cherry): And you want to end the pain of this fic as soon as possible.

> " Can I see her"said Otaru

CHERRY: Who has also forgotten how to punctuate questions.
LIME: And now you're griping about Otaru's grammar.
CHERRY (realizing what she just said): Mouuuu! I can't take much more of this!!!

> in almost a wisper.

LIME: How does a "wisper" compare to a "whisper"?
ANDY: Good question. Maybe you should ask Kaname Chidori.
LUCHS: Didn't you just ask me to remind you not to show them Full Metal Panic ever again?
ANDY: D'oh! I should've included making references in that reminder!

> " Surebut

CHERRY: Can you first put a space in between "sure" and "but" for me? Otherwise I sound like I'm saying "sherbet."
LIME: Sherbet? WAI! WAI! Ice cream! Ice cream! (singing) Ice cream, ice cream, oh what fun!
ANDY (large sweatdrop on his head): Are you sure that Skuld didn't program her Maiden Circuit? (A mallet falls out of Null Space and hits Andy on the head.) OWWW...
SKULD (on holo screen): BAKA! (She sticks her tongue out at him with one finger pulling down on her eyelid. She then disappears from the holo.)
LUCHS: Well that was pointless. (Another mallet falls out of Null Space and hits Luchs on the head.) ITTAAAI...

> please be gentle shes very week & hurt please dont get mad at her" begged Cherry.

ANDY (Cherry): WHINE! WHINE! WHINE! WHINE! WHINE! WHI- *POW!* YIPE! YIPE! YIPE! YIPE!
CHERRY (lifting her frying pan from Andy's head): Baka.
LUCHS (large sweatdrop): This is turning into a bad Three Stooges routine...

> " Dont worry Cherry, I promise"

LUCHS: Yeah, and we all know what the promise of a man is worth...
ANDY: Bitter? (Luchs nods.) Then maybe you need a Prozac! (Luchs face-faults.)

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

LIME: KITTIES! (Everyone else sweatdrops.)
ANDY (Kuronekosama): Nyao? (Lime glomps Andy.) GAHH! Lime...you're...choking...me...need...air...
LIME: WAI! WAI! ANDY SOUNDS JUST LIKE THE CAT FROM TRIGUN! WAI! WAI!
(Everyone else sweatdrops again.)

> He slowly made his way inside ,

BLOODBERRY: Aww, again?! Jeeze, didn't he learn anything the first time? (The others stare at her nervously, but remain silent.) What?

> she was crying in her bed

ANDY: Because Otaru's being mean to her!
LIME: Otaru, you meanie! Uwe? Why did I just say that? (Andy secretly giggles.)

> still thinking it was all her fault " Otaru I'm sorry please forgive me" said a criying
> Lime.

LIME: I'm sorry I let the author get me pregnant and make me keep the baby from being born.
CHERRY: We only wish the author were sorry she wrote it.

> " Lime Im the one that should be sorry

BLOODBERRY (Otaru): For forgetting to use a condom like a good Boy Scout.

> , I'm really sorry for

CHERRY (Otaru): Leaving that comma in the middle of nowhere.

> causing you all this paine & loose the baby ,

LIME (Kyle): Ready, Ike? Loose the Baby!
CHERRY (Ike): Don't Loose the Baby.
LIME (Kyle): Loose the Baby!

> we could try again" said Otaru with a small smile .

LIME: Uwe? Try...again?
CHERRY: O.o;;
BLOODBERRY: No! They can't possibly mean...restarting the f- (Cherry clamps her hand over Bloodberry's mouth.)
ALL: DON'T SAY IT, BLOODBERRY!!!

> " You mean" mumbled Lime.

LUCHS (Lime): You'll help me remember how to punctuate questions?
ANDY (Otaru): Sorry. I can't help you with that, since I can't do it either.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: HEY!

> " Yes Lime , I realise it now but I

LUCHS: Suffer from chronic hemorrhoids.
CHERRY: LUCHS!

> really do love you , could you ever forgive me for

BLOODBERRY (Otaru): Starring in this POS fanfic?

> ignoring you , I'm really sorry but I cant let you die like these"

ANDY (Otaru): MSTers who are struggling to endure the bad grammar, characterization and plot in this fic.
MESOPOTAMIA (annoyed, through PA system): WHAT, DID EVERYONE IN THE 20TH CENTURY CASUALLY BREAK THE FOURTH WALL, OR SOMETHING?
ANDY (to Mesopotamia): No, only MSTers.

> said Otaru with watery eyes.

LUCHS: Heh. Hemorrhoids and pink eye. You ladies sure know how to pick 'em.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: HEY!
ANDY (to Luchs): Don't forget constant flatulence. (Notices Otaru's marionettes glaring at him.) Oh wait, that was Hanagata.
OTARU'S MARIONETTES: That's better.

> " But Otaru , you said it yourself

ANDY (Lime): Cherry's cooking gives you gas. *POW!* (Andy crashes to the ground in a heap.) Spin-spin-spin-spin-spin...
CHERRY (Lifting her frying pan from Andy's head): How would you know about my cooking? Huh? Have you even tried it?
LIME: Ne, Cherry, if you keep using that frying pan on Andy, you're going to ruin it.

> I'm inmature & childish , why would you want me" asked Lime sadly.

LUCHS (Otaru): Because I need to teach you about spelling, grammar and punctuation.
LIME: HEY!
(Andy gets back into his seat, clearing the cobwebs in his head.)

> " Because I Love you thats why" said Otaru with a smile.

(Lime clutches her hand to her chest, her Otome Kairo, with a warm smile.)
LIME: Otaru... ^_^
ANDY (muttering to himself): Dammit... She's still in love with Otaru.
CHERRY & BLOODBERRY (to Andy, as Binky the Clown): AWW, TOO BAD! You didn't corrupt the marionette, but we have a nice prize for you, don't we Gary?
LUCHS (Gary): Right we do, Binky! It's a Hanagata plushie! Now you can plushie your Hanagata with the Hanagata plushie the professionals use! Take it away, Binky!

> "Oh, Otaru" said lime crying tears of joy.

ANDY (Vash): That's *sniff* *sniff*... so sw-sweeeeeeeet! (Begins Vash-the-Stampede-style bawling session.)
LUCHS: The sentimentality in the room is just sickening.
OTHERS: No kidding.

> They both shared a passionete deep kiss.

LUCHS: Unfortunately, the kiss lasted so long that they died from asphyxiation. The End.
MESOPOTAMIA (on PA system): YOU WISH.

> About 10 months later Lime had a baby girl with shiny dark blue hair, & chocolate
> brown eyes

CHERRY: Honestly, Otaru-sama! After what she's been through, can't you give her more than a month to recover?
BLOODBERRY: Yeah, if you needed to release that pent-up frustration, I'm always available! *POW!* OWW...
CHERRY (removing her elbow from Bloodberry's face): Honestly, Bloodberry! I can't let my guard down around you for an instant!
BLOODBERRY: You wanna take it outside, little girl?
ANDY: HEY! HEY! Let's try to finish the fic in one piece, please!

> *Maybe I could be a good mommy after all *

ANDY: So does this mean that Lime's Maiden Circuit develops the motherhood attribute as well?
CHERRY: I don't think so.
LIME: Why? I wanna be a mommy, too!

> the baby was really going to

LUCHS: Disappear in a dimensional portal so that they could continue on with the regular series, Saber Marionette J Again and Saber Marionette J to X.
OTHERS: LUCHS!

> be loved & wanted by everyone ( exept Hanagata) .

OTARU'S MARIONETTES (flatly): Figures.
ANDY: Why do you assume the worst about Hanagata? Sure he may be annoying, rude, and desperate for some "good Otaru lovin'," but that doesn't necessarily mean that he'll automatically hate this kid.
BLOODBERRY: But it would remind him of how Otaru chose Lime over him.
LIME: Not to mention that he treats Yume-chan poorly.
ANDY (thinks about it for a few seconds): Oh.

> The 3 of them would be togheter forever.

ANDY: At least until the end of Saber Marionette J to X.
LUCHS (interested): Why? What happens at the end of Saber Marionette J to X?
ANDY (Xellos): SORE WA HIMITSU DESU! ^_^

> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Owari^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

ANDY: GAAH! She ends her fics the same way that I end my MSTs!
OTHERS: You're imagining things.

> Whatcha think ,

ALL (making the "okay" hand sign): IT STINKS!

> short but sweet I love it my second fic flame or review please.

LIME (AW2K): Or just MST it.
CHERRY: I think you said that earlier.
LIME (sheepish grin): Oh yeah!

> Anime Writer 2000

ANDY: She's gonna write anime like it's 2000!
LIME: But it's not 2000 anymore...
ANDY (large sweatdrop): I think that was the point...
CHERRY: It's finally over!
OTHERS: WOO HOO! (They exit the theater.)


     Outside the theater the MST group was pondering their situation in an effort to forget the fic that they just saw.
     "Okay, we've gotten distracted from our plan by the Mesopotamia's call to fanfic, so we need to get back on track," declared Andy.
     Cherry looked up at him. "Yes, we need to get back to figuring out how to rescue Lorelei, so that she can repair Tamasaburo and Baiko."
     "Well, what are we waiting for?" asked Bloodberry. "Let's go!"
     The others nodded in agreement. "Right!" They started to leave, but Cherry stopped them in their tracks.
     "Didn't the Mesopotamia say that it would only give us access to this level and the one below?" the purple-haired marionette reminded them.
     "So?" Bloodberry spat.
     "The lab that holds the Mesopotamia's core, where Lorelei is being held in stasis, is on the next level up."
     For her part, Bloodberry actually managed to look sheepish. "Oh. You do have a point there."
     Lime spoke up at that point. "But Cherry's the best hacker on Terra 2! We should have no problem getting access to the lab right?" They all looked to Cherry with hopeful expressions.
     Cherry thought for a moment then nodded her head. "Well, it's worth a shot" she said. "Let's go to the data center and see what we can do."
     "RIGHT!" came the unanimous response.


Outro: A Moment of Zen

> please be gentle shes very week & hurt please dont get mad at her" begged Cherry.

ANDY (Cherry): WHINE! WHINE! WHINE! WHINE! WHINE! WHI- *POW!* YIPE! YIPE! YIPE! YIPE!
CHERRY (lifting her frying pan from Andy's head): Baka.
LUCHS (large sweatdrop): This is turning into a bad Three Stooges routine...


Preview of Next Time:

     Yoo-hoo! I'm Lime! We're on our way to rescue Lorelei from the Mesopotamia's grasp so that she can repair Tama-chan and Ume-chan! Uwe? My body is going back to the theater, and I can't control it! What's going on here? Who are you? What do you mean by "sample extraction?" And we have another fanfic to watch?! This is too crazy for me to believe! Next time, on Andy's Null Space: MST #3 "Typical Day." Otaru, DAAAAAAAAA~I SUKI!

Assessment of fanfic for the Author:

ANDY: This is why it pays to have a beta-reader. Most if not all of your grammar, spelling and characterization mistakes would be caught if you had someone proofread your work. You deserve credit for having the courage to take on a controversial issue like abortion in a fanfic. However, such a fic doesn't mesh well with the mechanics of the Saber Marionette J series, as you would have to explain how a marionette could get pregnant in the first place. Also, the setup of Lime waking up naked next to Otaru seems a bit cliché and strikes me as an ad hoc explanation of the situation.

LIME: What was the point of this? I know I love Otaru, but... (Blushes.)

CHERRY: How could you? Don't you know how immoral abortion is? (Andy and Bloodberry hold up a sign that says: "That's just your opinion, Cherry!")

BLOODBERRY: My biggest complaint is that I have almost no screen time in this one. C'mon! I only have, what, five lines?

LUCHS: I have to say that I am in total agreement with Andy's sentiments above.

Author's Notes:

     Okay, okay. I'd like to apologize for my second MST taking so long. Between my massive amount of DADSS homework and looking for a job so that I can eat after graduation, I have barely any time to pump out this stuff. Add to that the fact that fanfiction.net recently changed their policy so that anyone who posts MST fics without the prior consent of the original author risks getting their account deleted, and you have more dead time between MSTs. Oh well, such is life. Until next time, this is Andy Baker signing off!
