X-Files

"Duo, can you please explain to me why you dragged me through the whole
country only to show me what? Some sleepy backwater town somewhere in
Kansas?"
"Wait, you'll like it."
<groan>
"Really. There's something weird going on here and I have a perfect
explanation for it."
<glare> "You and your explanations. May I remind you that it was you
and your perfect explanations that actually got us into this X-Files mess? Une
will flip out if she finds where you dragged us this time."
"Well... but you have to admit that my theory that Relena was actually a
pink alien had some logic in it."
<quiet>
"See? You canīt argue with that!" <beatific grin>
<sigh> "But you didnīt have to accuse her of that at a press
conference in front of dozens of journalists from all over the world."
<hurt look> "But I had to warn the world of the danger she
poses."
<another sigh>
<quiet>
"We're he~ere."
"Finally."
<pout> "You donīt have to be so grumpy."
"Duo, right now we could be in our office working on a REAL case and not
trotting around the landscape to.... What the hell is that?"
<grin> "See? Thatīs I wanted to show you. I knew you would like
it."
"Duo, the field is full of mud. Do we really... Okay, obviously we
do."
"Be careful not to step in... Oops."
<glare>
"Okay, what do you think about it?"
"Itīs a cow."
"Just a cow?"
"Okay, a dead cow."
<sigh> "You're not look~ing. See?"
"Puncture marks. So?"
<shocked> "So? Do you know what that means?"
"Iīm sure there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for that."
"Like what?"
<sigh> "I donīt know. The carcass would have to be checked by
forensics first."
"No need. I know what did it!"
<roll of the eyes> "Please, not another vampire theory."
"No vampires. Chupacabra!" <maniacal grin>
<glare> "Doesnīt that beast live in Mexico or somewhere around
there?"
<shrug> "Maybe it moved. Decided to
take a vacation. Thought that the cows in Kansas look better. Who knows. But
Iīm sure - itīs Chupacabra!"
<sigh> "At least itīs not the alien conspiracy theory this
time."
<wide eyes> "Wow. I didnīt even think about that. I must be rubbing
off on ya!" <proud grin>
<groan>
"So... Aliens, huh?"
"No. NO ALIENS!"
<pout> "And why not?"
"Aliens. Do. Not. Exist. There is no evidence of any extraterrestrial life
and without any evidence-"
"Evidence? You've seen the pink harpy! Do not tell me that you still
believe that a human being can give out a shriek like that. I just remember the
īHe~eroī cry and it gives me goose bumps." <shiver>
<glare>
"And if I proved to you that something like an īUnidentified Flying
Objectī existed, would you then believe that aliens exist?"
<narrowed eyes> "Why?" <suspicious>
"Look."
<wide eyes>
"Well, what do you think is that, Mr. Reasonable?"
"Hn, thatīs a space ship."
<nod> "And it isnīt o~urs. So that means..."
"That simply means that there is a space ship on the horizon."
<shocked> "Thatīs all? What more do you need to believe that there
ARE aliens among us? Maybe getting hit over your stubborn head with the īUFOī?"
<glare> "Spaceship or not. That doesnīt mean that aliens really
exist. Iīm sure there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for that..."
