Subject: What's in the bag?


The thought of shirtless Allen intrigues me, Lyra. Kindly ellaborate.

This isn't really a fanfic, but it's a list. 

For a long time now, we (my friends and I) were wondering what was inside
Hitomi's blue duffle bag. The latest issue (that I read) of Animerica says:

"A pouch, lipstick, compact, cotton puffs, lotion, antiperspirant, pager,
sewing set [?!], nail clipper, 2 tissue packs, 2 hankercheifs, 6
tampons[O.O], 6 pain-releivers, 9 cut bandages, student notebook, 4
textbooks, socks, undergarnments, 2 sports towels, shoes and shoes bag,
t-shirt, shorts, C.D. player, head phones, batteries, and 2 cds."

But I can't be too sure, the blasted magazine interchanged Dillandau and
Folken's charcter prophile for the movie. (alright, who did it?!)

What if all the characters brought bags along with them? What would be in
it? This is what we think:

Van: [BAG COLOR: white or red] Sword, sheath, keys to the Escaflowne (like
a car!), extra drag-energeists (in case it runs out), lots and lots of
extra red, flimsly shirt, feathers (Notice how Van and Folken like to
molt!), herbal leaves, sword sharpener (comes in deifferent sizes! Small
and Guymelef-big!), sword shiner, and gloves.

Allen: [BAG COLOR: blue or light blue] Sword, sheath, keys to Sherazade,
keys to crusade, folded (slightly faded) picture of Marlene, Folded
(slightly faded) picture of Cid, Picture of mom, Picture of Celena, Bird
cage (hinT: Episode 24-25...or maybe for his owl.), Owl buiscits, 4 little
black books (It's a guy thing ^.~*), Marlene's old love letters, HAIR BRUSH
(Important indeed), Styling gel (Thy glorious 3 inch lift be done!),
Hitomi, Merle and Millerna's vital statistics (You never know), and a mirror.

Dryden: [BAG COLOR: brown] Hair brush, calculator (or abacus), annual stock
exchange graph, a pouch of money, mirror, another pair of funky glasses,
violet ribbons, and Millerna's picture.

Merle: {BAG COLOR: pink] Nothing. I can't imagine her with a bag. But in
her pocket, there might be some cat buiskits and another nail file.

Millerna: [BAG COLOR: pink or yellow] Picture of dad, picture of home,
picture of family, money pouch, ribbon, loads of Allen pictures, a single,
misplaced picture of Dryden. (Woah, this would fit in a wallet, not a bag!)

Folken: {BAG COLOR: Black or navy blue] Hair brush, make-up (For the purple
tear-drop!), sltyling gel, a tape player (How does he remember that song by
heart?!), Feathers (both black and white), A picture of Van, A picture of
his arm, a picture of a dragon, a picture of home, Rust-repeller (For the
arm), and a bottle of Hair dye.

Dillandau: [BAG COLOR: red (note: bag has scorch marks all over it)] Sword,
sheath, Keys to Alseides, 3 boxes of matches, 2 lighters, gasoline, 5 flame
throwers, a pile of scratch paper to burn, 3 bottles of wine, 6 pairs of
daggers, Mac 11, revolver (9 mm,)[A-HEM] curlers, hair brush, scar
concealer, candle, semi-burned picture of Dragon Slayers (All in an SD,
peace-sign position, KAWAI), Fire extinguisher (He might burn himself!),
bandages, Hate letters (He might not give it to Van or Allen), extra
shirts, dog-leach...LEASH. (I don't think Jajuka needs a blood sucking
creature.)And a blue dress just in case...

Dornkirk: Curlers. 'Nuff said.

There. That's the list, please add if you've got some other ideas. Thankies.
