Wufei: [sitting on the couch and riffling through a book but not really seeing the pages] Do you ever have the feeling that we're underappreciated?
Trowa: [looks up from some sheet music] Of course. Sometimes.
Wufei: [standing up and pacing] I mean, I understand that the Writer has an outside life. I also accept the fact that she doesn't have the most time in the world and is a haphazard Writer at best...
Trowa: She's also absent-minded and prone to procrastination...
Wufei: Good points. But... here we have the opportunity to get some actual WORK done on our fics, and she's watching an Ally McBeal marathon.
Quatre: [screams and throws his computer across the room]
[Trowa and Wufei stare]
Quatre: [breathing heavily. He sees the other two staring at him and blushes] I... couldn't find what was wrong with the word processing program...
Wufei: Dammit. You know she can't write without that.
Trowa: I don't know why she refuses to use paper and pen.
Quatre: I know! I know! I'm trying to figure it out but I've reinstalled the damn program more than once and the same error keeps happening! [breaks down]
Trowa: [hugs Quatre] It's alright. We'll figure something out.
Wufei: Do you think we could Heero and Duo back? I know I'm getting antsy about it, but it just doesn't feel right without them here.
Trowa: [over Quatre's head] I'll see the Writer about that later.
Wufei: [sighs] And I used to just be pissy about not getting enough writing time.
