windandwater[Scene: Writer's Sanctum]
[Writer is covered in various bunnies, looking extremely peeved. Some of them are of the artistic sort and the Writer can't draw straight lines, much less deal with art bunnies. Duo is sitting in a chair in front of the desk, looking eager and smug]
Writer: Duo... [shakes head and sighs] Look. I KNOW you're my primary Muse but this... [lifts arms which have bunnies hanging from them] ... is a bit much.
Duo: Hey, ya can't blame me for trying, right? I mean, *you* know that your fics end up Duo-centrist if you don't work on making them not. Which is why you tend to write stuff without me in it. Which pisses the both of us off. I want some bunnywork done!
Writer: Duo! That's not fair! I've got you "Pair" fic ready to be uploaded. That's gotta count for something.
Duo: Not enough.
Writer: [frowns] Look, maybe I'd write more fics with you in it if you'd stop breeding these damn epic ones! This family!bunny is seriously messed up, though the idea is intriguing. But... honestly! Do you know how many epic-type fic I have unfinished with you taking the main role?!
Duo: Uuhhh...
Writer: I'll take that as a no. Let me inform you. [shakes bunnies off her arms and starts ticking off on her fingers] First, in no particular order, is the non-PWP. [raises her voice before Duo can open his mouth] AND BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING... I consider you to be one of the main characters for this fic, even if it's from Quatre's POV. Second, "Mitigating Circumstances," aka the slut!Duo fic. That I don't even KNOW when I'm gonna be able to work on. And I really want to since it's the fic that pretty much establishes the five of you in a working relationship. Then there's the "Devil's Luck" fic that you hit me with... which is so kawaii and smarmy that I don't think I can work on it without going into insulin-shock. You're in a host of songfics, too.
Duo: [pouts] I still--
Writer: Want something written? Tough! You've hit me with this damn family!bunny now, too. I'm gonna have to put all these little buggers on ice until I need them.
Duo: You make my life as a Muse really *suck*, Writer.
Writer: [smiles] I know, but you knew that when you joined this nuthouse. Just be glad I'm writing that third songfic for you.
Duo: [brightens] Really?!
Writer: Yes. Really. There's something missing from between the two I already have done. You just need to decide on the right song for it. [gives Duo a Look] Your interest in Britney Spears is disturbing.
Duo: The song fits though.
Writer: [sighs] Even I have to admit that. So... work on the songfic for now. And for God's sake, don't breed any more bunnies! If I see another epic with your name on it, I will fucking give Wufei to your brother!
Duo: [shocked] But Wu-babe is mine!
Writer: You have Heero!
Duo: They're BOTH mine!
