[Video/Action for the daring]

[doubleppk]

[This video starts off at night with enough light to show off three snowman dressed up in clothes that very specifically male without being anything like Lupin, Poon, Jigen, Zenigata, or any of the other men Fujiko would like to forget. Then it shows Fujiko playing with her double Walther PPKs, twirling them around on her fingers and apparently dressed as a cowgirl. She starts up a dance, singing to herself, still twirling the guns around and fires them off between lines in a flashy style more befitting a rodeo show than you'd expect from a Japanese woman.]

Well I went home with the waitress. You know the way I always do~ [Two more shots, one from each gun.]
But how I was to know~ She was with the Russians too!
I was gambling in Havana, when I took a little risk.
Send lawyers, guns, and money. Daddy get me out of this!
I'm an innocent bystander~ [Apparently this induces more dancing to convince herself of it.] But somehow I got stuck
Between a rock and a hard place~ And I'm down on my luck!
Yeah I'm down on my luck.
Oh man, I'm so far down, I ain't ever been up.
I mean, if it weren't for bad luck. If it weren't for REALLY bad luck--
I WOULDN'T HAVE ANY LUCK AT ALL!
[This just sends her firing off her machine guns at the now destroyed snowmen. And their clothes that are completely insalvagable for bullet holes. Finishing that she pulls them up, hides them under the impossibly tight and short dress that shouldn't possibly be able to hide the guns on the holsters on her thighs where they're kept, and then she bounds over to the journal.]

What? Already open...? Haha... my bad. Sokka cutie, looks like I'll need those machine gun rounds after all, hm?

And Tsuzuki, still on for drinks?

Happy Valentine's Day everyone. [She cuts off with a growl mumbling something in Japanese about a certain idiot.] Like I care...

I only hit the snowmen. I know what I'm doing. [Points at the now sagging rather destroyed snowmen she's pulling bullets out of.]

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

Snowman ain't gonna stop bullets.

[doubleppk]

My snowmen do. [Sticks out her tongue childishly. Hitting a target you can perfectly see is very boring and not much skill. Wrapping it up in snow and still hitting? Way better.]

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[Raph still doesn't know the difference, but who the hell knows. Those snowmen could be made of solid ice for all he knows.] Uh-huh. 'Least take it somewhere where there's not so many people.

[doubleppk]

It's fine here. Besides, there aren't targets elsewhere and I don't think Moro would appreciate it.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[Now she's starting to make him angry.] Whatever. You do what you want. But I'm tellin' you now, we got kids runnin' around here. You shoot one a' them, and you're gonna wish you listened to me.

[doubleppk]

Oi! What kind of woman do you think I am?! I've never shot a kid. And I never will! I've got way more skills than that.

[Puts on gloves and digs through the snow to show off the metal and wood target enforcing underneath.] Jeez... this place is FOR practice, ne? Do you cut up kids when you throw your sais or shuriken? [Not that she knows if he uses the latter, she just assumes so because he's a ninja.]

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

Guns are different.

[Not that he disapproves of them, they're just more unpredictable.]

[doubleppk]

[Rolls eyes and keeps removing bullets.]

That's the kind of prejudice I'd expect from a swordsman.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[He snorts and leans against the doorway, arms still folded.] I'm not a 'swordsman'. You make me sound like a freakin' pirate.

And I'm no gun-hatin' prude preachin' about love and joy either. I'm just statin' the facts.

[doubleppk]

Pirate? [Arches an eyebrow.]

Look, I didn't shoot anyone. There's no one here who got hit, I'm more careful than that. Not that I expect you trust me, but it's really insulting.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

I didn't say you did. I'm just sayin' it's possible. Insulting or not, there's a lot of wackbags around here that throw around stuff like this without thinkin' first.

[He throws his hands up defensively.]

That's all I was tryin' to say.

[doubleppk]

Well. I didn't. I thought ahead.

Che... just how many superhero types are there around here? Always looking out for the common man without investigating enough to see if such a situation is the way they assume.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

It's those so called "hero types" that do nothin' but throw their weight around here. They got too much power for their own good. Don't compare me to them.

[doubleppk]

[That gets a grin out of her.] See? I thought you were better than that, hm?

I'm not a fan of being told what to do. [Tinkling sounds as she drops dozens of little bullets into a pouch.] I'm sure you can understand.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[He pushes off the wall, shrugs.]

Yeah, but that don't stop people from sayin' something.

[doubleppk]

Once again, how would you feel if someone felt the need to remind you not to cut someone while you were practicing? Do you want me to prove how good I am?

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[People remind him all the time not to cut someone during practice. He tends to get... a little overenthusiastic. After a while Splinter got complacent to the point where only concussions and massive blood loss were where he drew the line. So it's all well and good to Raphael.]

Whatever floats your boat, lady. It's not gonna change anything.

[If he was in a better mood, maybe he'd egg her on. But not today. Today he's decided he's going to be crabby.]

[doubleppk]

That's right. I'm not going to change from the reminder, so don't waste your breath.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

Then I won't.

[He picks up his broom and stalks back into the darkness of the barracks. Simple as that.]

[doubleppk]

Hey... Raph?

[Almost too quiet for how quick he's leaving though.]

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, he's gone, back to his dojo tucked in the far corner of the massive building. It's been sitting neglected for months, and the place is in need some serious TLC. Raph's just happy to have something to keep his hands busy and his mind distracted while the whole town's going gaga over this bullshit they call Valentine's Day.

If she follows him, so be it. But he definitely wouldn't expect her to.]

[doubleppk]

[Fujiko is the last person ever to be known for wise actions. Ergo, she doesn't just follow. She sneaks up on him and calls out.]

Boo!

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[Raph spins around so fast you can barely see him do it. One moment he's diligently sweeping the dojo floor, the next he's got both sai drawn, teeth bared and ready for a fight.

Luckily he relaxes a little when he realizes it's her, but he's not gonna put away his sai.]

Jeez! What the heck is your problem?

[doubleppk]

Darn. I was actually hoping to prove my point.

Okay, you win for now ninja. You're at least as careful as I am~
