FF8: The Perfect Girl
A little bit of nothing, just because I felt the urge to abuse Rinoa some more. Go figure. ^_^

(SCENE: SELPHIE's room in Balamb Garden. SELPHIE is sprawled out in a beanbag chair, and QUISTIS is lounging on the bed flipping idly through a magazine.)

QUISTIS: So, anyway, I worry about Squall sometimes. You know?

SELPHIE: Yeah! He's so... so quiet and he doesn't have any friends... it's not right! He ought to... to socialize
more!

QUISTIS: That would be hell for Squall, I think. But maybe... you know, maybe a girlfriend?

SELPHIE: I'm taken!

QUISTIS: Oh, I know, I wasn't suggesting either of us. Squall would definitely need a very specific type of girl to make him happy.

SELPHIE: Yeah...

QUISTIS: I mean, some guys are happy with just about any girl...

SELPHIE: Like Zell!

QUISTIS: Exactly! But Squall needs someone a LOT more specific.

SELPHIE: You mean... a self-obsessed hyperactive terminally perky woman who runs rampant over his feelings in a shallow attempt to make him 'cheer up'? Someone who'll ignore his needs and his desire to live quietly completely in order to mold him into her perfect cheerful robot of a boyfriend?

QUISTIS: Yes! Exactly!

SELPHIE: Booyaka! But where are we going to find someone like that?

(The window crashes open and RINOA falls through. Bouncing to her feet, she beams happily.)

RINOA: Hi! I'm L'il Rinoa and this is my boomerang-crossbow Wingy-Thingy!

(SELPHIE and QUISTIS look at each other.)

SELPHIE and QUISTIS: Perfect.

QUISTIS: Rinoa? Hi, I'm Quistis... there's this really cute guy who lives down the hall, and he desperately needs your help!

RINOA: Really?! Show me where! I love helping guys in need! I cheer 'em right up!

SELPHIE: Two doors down! Just knock! He's got brown hair and his name is Squall!

(RINOA dashes out of the room. QUISTIS and SELPHIE listen attentively. There's a knock, then a brief buzz of conversation, then from down the hall they hear:)

SQUALL: ... Wingy-thingy?

(QUISTIS and SELPHIE high-five each other.)

SELPHIE: Success!

(CURTAIN.)

COMMENTS: Crikey, I stole a reference from one of my own damn fanfics. That's kind of pitiful. Actually, this whole fic is kind of pitiful. One joke. ONE. But, heck, I was feeling random.

Doesn't a 'boomerang-crossbow' sound like a REALLY BAD IDEA? I always thought one of the primary goals of the crossbow was for the bolts NOT to boomerang...
