Rei Hino

[Sailor M] Hi Rei. How's the legitimate senshi-business going?

[Rei] *rolls eyes* Usagi went off to be on The Real World recently. On Nemesis, of all places! What's that girl thinking of?

[SM] So you guys are probably not getting a whole lot done, I mean, Usagi being the leader and all.

[Rei] *stops and reflects on it* No, actually... we're getting a LOT done. We've saved the world three times in the past two weeks. Usually, with Usagi around, it takes us MONTHS, not to mention we get our hearts stolen, or we get crucified or even killed. But now we just lock Chibi Usa up in the basement and we're set. Very efficient. And we actually have times for having social lives and stuff. It's great without Usagi.

[SM] Well, I wanted to ask about that social life part you mentioned...

[R] Um, okay...

[SM] You know Trunks Briefs, don't you?

[R] *suddenly sort of cautious* Yeah... why do you ask?

[SM] Well, I was talking to Goten, because I'm interviewing people, you know, trying to figure out why Trunks doesn't have a girlfriend.

[R] *now very annoyed* How should I kow why he doesn't have a girlfriend? Isn't he supposed to be the poster child for Teen Hearthrobs or something?

[SM] I don't know. Do you think he is?

[R] I think... I think that Trunks is a very sweet guy. OKAY?

[SM] And...?

[R] And what?

[SM] And I know he wanted to go out with you. Goten said he really liked you. He also said you blew him off.

[R] How is this any of your business?

[SM] I'm doing the journalist thing and it's part of my story, that's how. Do you know that most girls would kill to be in the position you were in?

[R] Well, it's complicated.

[SM] Complicated how?

[R] First of all, I really WAS busy when he called. He called me right in the middle of the whole Mistress 9 thing! What was I supposed to do? Sorry girls, but I have a hot date, go and fight the big baddie without me? And then there was the thing with his father. Now Trunks is very sweet, but when you date someone, you date their whole family, and I don't want Vegeta as an in-law. He wanted Trunks to blow up my house! With us in it! One time he even dragged him all the way over here and... ugh, it was horrible. That man is psychotic with a vengeance.

[SM] But Trunks isn't.

[R] Trunks is strange. First he calls and calls to the point of being needy. And you know what? That night we met? He didn't even make a pass at me. His friend was making out with Minako in like 10 minutes, and the whole time Trunks was still just doing the shy blushing thing. I mean really! Then he gets all depressed and heartbroken and stuff. And frankly I got worried, we hadn't even gone out. So I figure...

[SM] *dripping sarcasm* Yes, I can understand how it would be awful to have a guy like Trunks nuts about you.

[R] You really want to know what it is?

[SM] No, I'm just here because I like to waste my time.

[R] Haha. Not.

[SM] Whatever. 'Fess up, Rei.

[R] Being a senshi (one who actually fights evil, as opposed to SOME people here) and being a priestess are important to me. I need someone who will understand that.

[SM] Oh and Trunks won't, because he's only had a hand in saving the world since he was eight?

[R] He got all upset because I told him I was working.

[SM] Um, no. He got upset because you blew him off.

[R] Oh come on. Look, I can't be the girl that sits at home and makes dinner while the guy is off saving the world.

[SM] Methinks the girl has issues.

[R] What?

[SM] Yup. It's not that yu think Trunks wants that, it's that YOU want a guy who'll make YOU dinner while you save the world. Someone like Chad. Is this because of Yuuichirou?

[R] He's just a friend!

[SM] Because you understand, I would have to hurt you if you told me you were choosing that guy over Trunks. Their hair alone is reason enough to go for Trunks.

[R] Has anyone ever pointed out how superficial you are?

[SM] Yes, actually, but thank you for noticing anyway.

[R] But you know, when you get right down to it, yeah, Yuuichirou would be more supportive than Trunks, I think.

[SM] *falls down dead... well, not really, just shocked at such blasphemy*
