[Ed is, inexplicably, sitting cross-legged on a park bench, attempting to eat Chinese food with a pair of chopsticks. She's not so bad with the chopsticks, but is still struggling sometimes. How she got the Chinese food in the first place is a mystery.

She's also glancing at the newspaper, which is sitting next to her on the bench. It's open to a large ad proclaiming a sale on tube socks. She looks at it with curiosity, sticks out a foot and wriggles her toes, looking at them with a grin. Her feet are, as always, very bare.]

Ed tried wearing socks once. It was too weird.

What kinda Chinese food do you have?

[Currently twirling chopsticks in her hand.]

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

[Looks down at food.]

Uhh... General Tso's Chicken, I think.

[cloudsofwhite.livejournal.com]

How'd he get a food named after him?

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

Dunno.

Maybe he just really liked chicken.

[Nom nom chicken.]

[cloudsofwhite.livejournal.com]

Oh. Maybe he knows the Colonel, too?

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

[Head tilt.]

Maybe, but the General's from China, and the Colonel's from America.

[cloudsofwhite.livejournal.com]

Oh. They should fight each other over their chicken. It'd be neat.

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

Messy, too.

[cloudsofwhite.livejournal.com]

And really yummy!

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

It would be... THE ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN.

[THERE IS A SUDDEN SWELL OF MUSIC AND THE SONG BEGINS! ed has to put her food down on the bench so she can stand up and rock out.]

♫It was the ultimate showdown
Of ultimate destiny
good guys bad guys and explosions
as far as the eye can see...

[Osaka joins in, airguitaring!]

~And only one will survive,
I wonder who it will be.
This is the Ultimate Showdown
of Ultimate Destiny.~

[Now Ed's using her chopsticks as a pretend microphone and dancing around!]

♫Old Godzilla was hopping around
Tokyo City like a big playground
when suddenly Batman burst from the shade
and hit Godzilla with a Batgrenade!♫

[cloudsofwhite.livejournal.com]

[Osaka's using the chopsticks as makeshift drumsticks.]

~Godzilla got pissed and began to attack,
But didn’t expect to be blocked by Shaq,
Who proceeded to open up a can of Shaq Fu,
When Aaron Carter came out of the blue.~

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

and he started beating up Shaquille O'Neal
then they both got flattened by the Batmobile
but before it could make it back to the Batcave
Abraham Lincoln popped out of his grave

[cloudsofwhite.livejournal.com]

~And took an AK47 out from under his hat,
And blew Batman away with a rat-a-tat-tat,
But he ran out of bullets and he ran away,
Because Optimus Prime came to save the day.~

Godzilla took a bite out of Optimus Prime,
Like Scruff McGruff took a bite out of crime.
And then Shaq came back covered in a tire track,
But Jackie Chan jumped out and landed on his back.
And Batman was injured, and trying to get steady.

When Abraham Lincoln came back with a machete,
but suddenly something caught his leg and he tripped,
Indiana Jones took him out with his whip,

then he saw Godzilla sneaking up from behind,
and he reached for his gun which he just couldn't find...

[cloudsofwhite.livejournal.com]

‘Cause Batman stole it and he shot and he missed,
And Jackie Chan deflected it with his fist.
Then he jumped in the air and did a somersault
While Abraham Lincoln tried to pole vault...

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

onto Optimus Prime! But they collided in the air,
then they both got hit by a Care Bear Stare, oooh!

This is the Ultimate Showdown, of Ultimate Destiny.
Good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see.
And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be,
This is the Ultimate Showdown...

[Pokes le foot with his wand.] Are you always this barefooted?

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

[Aaaack foot! Her toes curl at that. Mock glare.]

Yeeees.

[dogged-mischief.livejournal.com]

[INNOCENT SMILE.] What about half barefooted?

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

[She rolls her eyes.]

Tried it. It's uncomfortable.

[dogged-mischief.livejournal.com]

Picky.

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

[Huh, never thought of it that way. Wriggles toes a little.]

Maybe a little.

[dogged-mischief.livejournal.com]

[KICKS OFF HIS SHOES/socks/etc and joins you on the bench.]

Partial to letting my pads breathe free myself, really.

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

[Oh yay! Barefoot buddies!]

Shoes are restricting. [Offers some chicken?]

[dogged-mischief.livejournal.com]

[8D! OH YAY CHICKEN. Sirius is a happy puppy.]

How generous.

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

Sometimes.

[Hooooolds ooooout chiiiiiicken.]

[glacial-dance.livejournal.com]

Socks? [Kula looks down at her own (very stocking, and shoed) feet] Why's that weird?

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

Ed doesn't wear socks. Or shoes. Ever.

[glacial-dance.livejournal.com]

How come?

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

Don't like 'em.

[glacial-dance.livejournal.com]

Doesn't it hurt when you walk on gravel and stuff?

[timeforjam.livejournal.com]

Nooooooo.
