Work Text:
Anko sipped tea, legs swinging in the air as she read a magazine. Bashame slept silently close by her, she was mumbling something about rice in her dream.
"Oh, Anko," Koshitan started, she sat on the couch trying a deer cracker Nokotan offered her. "Mom and Dad are out of Japan for something, they'll be back in a week. I need to give you the spare key."
"Oh Onee-Chan~~ Th~a~nk you!~"
"Ugh. Ruined it." She said, wiping her hands.
"Nroh. You have parents? I don't! I live by myself with some deer crackers!"
"Same for Bashame! Well actually... I only got Mr. Meme. He's very cool and nice!!"
"Mr. Meme? You mean your dad, right?"
"Mhm, my Papa!"
"Oh, me and Anko's dad is strange. He REALLY likes airplanes, is your dad strange?"
"He likes rice more than me! It makes me happy." Bashame smiled as she put her arm around Anko, looking at Koshitan.
"Get off me, Me-Chan."
Me-Chan was her nickname for Bashame.
"Nroh? My dad likes deer crackers a lot!"
"I thought you-"
"My mom does too! Nroh, nroh, nroh!!" Nokotan rolled around for a bit. She bumped into Anko, who instantly put her in a headlock, then flipped her over.
"Koshitan-Senpai, do you like your papa and girl papa??"
"Ehh... I respect them for the shelter and food and alliance and allowance they give me!"
"Wait, Onee-Chan, didn't you say-"
This is a flashback.
Alert, Alert, flashback in your area!
Evacuate.
"Oh hello, Torako." Father said, sipping tea.
"What have you done today, sweetie?"
"SHUT UP, IMMEDIATELY!" She through her nailed bat towards them, it went through the wall and landed in the kitchen.
"Very sweet darling, yes, yes." Mother smiled.
"Do your chores please now." Father said, sipping tea.
"DIE!!!" She stormed away.
"Isn't that right?" Anko tilted her head a bit.
"NO! Wait, is that how you got your obsession with tea? From dad?"
"LIKE HOW I GOT MY LOVE OF RICE FROM MY DAD!"
"AND HOW I GOT MY LOGE OF DEER CRACKERS!"
The two grabbed each other's hands and spun around together, happily in idiocy.
"Shut up! Don't compare me to you two!" Anko frowned.
"Hey! I've been here since episode one and my name is in the title!! Remember your place, SIDE CHARACTER!!"
"BUT YOU HAVE A BASIC HAIR COLOR! AND DESIGN! YOU'RE NOTHING WITHOUT YOUR ANTLER!!"
"YOU'RE NOTHING WITHOUT KOSHITAN!"
"How... Did I get involved...??" She sobbed.
"WHY YOU WILD BEAST!"
"Grr..."
*Beep*Beep*Beep* "Hello, is this Nara Park?"
"NOOO!!" Nokotan ran a bit.
"Mhm, yeah." Anko hung up.
"You're so mean, Koshian..."
"Eh." She smirked at Koshitan.
*Beep* "Ooh, me rice is ready!" Bashame (or Me-Chan if you're Anko or Nokotan) spun towards the rice cooker.
"You three are so annoying... Mainly you two, Bashame, you're doing fine."
"Hei-hei!" She smiled as she ate some rice. "Did you know... *Nom*Nom*... That rice can cure certain cancers?"
"Great, now we're an educational show where we misinform children! Media can stoop so low!" Koshitan sat down and crossed her legs, scratching at her skirt just a bit.
"Oohh~~ Onee-Chan's irritation. So- so!!" Anko began rolling around.
"Very fascinating! Entertaining! Fun! Watchable! Enjoyable! Exciting! Notz!"
"Yeah, very exciting!!" She giggled.
"Eugh, creepy..."
Very crappy and creepy and slimy indeed.
"Oh whatever, Anko, how's classes?"
"Oh me, I'm doing well in Home Economics."
"I HATE Home Ec!! They don't make us make deer crackers!"
"But you still do..."
"Very deer thing to do! Very self-sufficient!"
"She still inter-" Anko tried to chime in, but deer girl continues.
"They're so yummy and hard and crispy! We need more! We must start a revolution! Who's with me? Deer Crackers, They Matter! Deer Crackers, They Matter!"
"Yes, Nokotan-Senpai!! Deer Crackers, They Matter!!"
""Deer Crackers, They Matter! Deer Cracker, They Matter!"
"Oh how obnoxious... Why do I do this...??"
Because you're the straightman.
"NO STRAIGHTMAN BREAKS THE FOURTH WALL, NEITHER DO THEY HAVE HATSUNE MIKU'S VOICE!"
My Meta Friend Koshitan.
"Hey! Well at least Anko isn't chanting. Thank you A-"
"We'll give you Koshitan-Senpai's underwear if you-"
"DEER CRACKERS, THEY MATTER!! DEER CRACKERS, THEY MATTER!!"
"WHAT THE HELL, ANKO?!?"
"That's the spirit, Koshian!"
"EVIL SPIRIT!"
"A spirit is a spirit, silly Koshi-girl. Ohoho."
"Huh..."
""DEER CRACKERS, THEY MATTER, DEER CRACKERS, THEY MATTER!! YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!" Me-Chan and Koshian shouted and chanted, dancing, rolling, jumping, singing, orchestrating in the background.
"Two rats..."
"Deer, Koshitan!"
"Shut up."
"Deer Crackers, They Matter! Woohoo! Right, Koshian?"
"Will I be getting my underwear soon?"
"Mhm!"
"HUUHH???!!!"
And so, the four continued playing and shouting and enjoying their after school together.
"Hey guys?" Koshitan quietly asked. Looking away. "N- Nevermind..." She turned away.
"What is it Koshitan?~"
"Nothing. Forget it..."
"Please tell me! I'm allergic to suspense! Ooouu!!" Nokotan cried and rolled.
"Yeah, tell us Onee-Chan." Koshian said, smirking and crossing her legs.
"Tell Bashame! I'm interested!" She cried.
"Okay okay..." Me-Chan and Koshian scooted closer, Nokotan sat beside her. "Do you all think we'll be getting a season 2?" She said, putting her hand on her head.
"Season 2... Hmm... I don't know. Me-Chan?"
"I want one! I need to plant more rice!" Koshian snorted and Me-Chan smiled.
"Does it matter? As long as the manga continues, we're fine!" Nokotan hugged Koshitan and smiled as wide as she could.
"I guess you're right... Pest."
"Notz! Thank you M'lady! Heeyy!!" She shouted out.
The four sat on the couch together, smiling.
