Quote:And, Friend is -not- secretly hiding romantic feelings for Lead - jeaousy over hanging around less, yes, making secretive doe eyes, no. And when Minoin of the Week tries to kidnap her to get to Lead, she fights it to a standstill until one of them notice the commotion and vaporizze said minion, this being how she learns the Aweful Truth. Well, theoretically aweful, but the prospect of more guys that can give her that good a fight is more exciting than anything else, and her newest and ooldest freinds are there to take care of anything that's too far out of her level, right? YEAH! LET'S KICK ASS, GUYS!
She's -not- a puzzled outsider who's never seen pop culture before, and -he's- not a dateless wimp who couldn't grow a spine if his life depended on it, so that'd set the cliches nicely on their heads while still being tooth-rottingly sweet.
Lead facepalms. Crush sighs and shakes her head slightly. Friend prattles on and pantomimes beating down more minions, until Bro pounces her demanding ice cream or he'll tell their mom she got in a fight again.

ETA: Lead's family name: Garyuno or Ryugano - 'of the Fanged Dragons.' The dragons were the immigrant demons a few hundred years ago, after the occasional scout form one or another clan looking over the plant for the past few thousand years (Fanged and Stone dragons being western style, Fanged spiky and Stone smooth-scaled, plus the Plumed dragons from South America and the Antler dragons in the eastern style) and their massed presence is one of the prime reasons so few of the evil demons have been seen in the past couple centuries, to the point that many no longer beleive they exist among the shorter-lived humans, and even the young dragons thought they'd moved on to seek easir pickings until the latest demon lord started sending his assault forces.What, you think Samuel L. Jackson isn't going to survive the zombie apocalypse?
