Canon Bump - Once More With Feeling

[pikapikapikarin]

[The scene is familiar for anyone who knows about Cure Peace and her friends. There's four out of five Precure and they're just finishing their introductions. Red Oni has a dumbfounded expression on his face.]

Where's the last one?

The four of us are enough!

[Yes there's a absence of Cure Beauty in the group as Aka Oni flips a table, but not literally.]

EH?! So cheeky! I'll beat you up with a Red nose! COME ON OUT AKANBE!

[In a flash of light a Akanbe is made out of a discarded problems book as Aka Oni exclaims,] GO BEAT THEM UP!

Cure Sunny!

You're challenging me? I accept!

Here's your problem! [And the Akanbe opens up its cover to reveal... an English Problem?]

What? Problem?

How do you say "Watashi no namae wa Cure Sunny-desu." in English?

English?! I uh...! Watashi Cure Sunny!

[There's a sound like a buzzer and everyone gets a O_o expression on their faces as Sunny flips the heck out.]

The answer is "My name is Cure Sunny." Akanbe! [And crossing it's arms, it fires a giant X which traps Sunny inside it!

What's going on? I can't move!

If you answer wrong, you get trapped with an X! [Aka Oni is winning. And to make matters worse, it's Yayoi's turn.]

Cure Peace!

Leave this to me!

Problem! 1+2+3+4= ?

[Really. Really? Yayoi is desperately counting on her fingers. And for a long moment there's silence before music begins to play... And Aka Oni and everyone else starts to sing! Including the Akanbe.]

[Aka Oni]
You're insecure, so half of four,
Your old brains are not what they were before,

[Happy]
Add two threes, it's fine for us,
'Cause we're young and we can still remember stuff

[Sunny]
Everyone else can multiply by 60,
Everyone else can add two

[All]
Now take off one hundred and add on 24,
Then divide by two and add on seven more

[All]
And if you're struggling now it's not hard to tell
You don't know, your maths skills are terrible

[All]
If only you had a mind like me
You'd understand how to divide the sum by three,
And then just add on the age of this OAP
You don't know, your maths skills are terrible

[Akanbe]
It's really kinda pitiful

N-not helping!

The answer is 10! Akanbe!

[Just another day for the Smile Precure apparently.]

[It's horrible isn't it? Yayoi is really feeling embarrassed.]

Hey...

[icantbelievethis]

What kind of fight was that?

[pikapikapikarin]

Something I want to forget and push the entire experience out of my mind.

[icantbelievethis]

It's okay, I suck at school too.

[pikapikapikarin]

Mmm. Yeah. I need to continue working on math but I'm terrible.

[antibadstuff]

I think that might have been the most terrifying battle I've ever seen.

[pikapikapikarin]

It was horrid. First English then Math...! If Beauty wasn't there we'd have been in a lot of trouble.

[antibadstuff]

Is that even allowed? Mixing learning and fighting?

[ She eventually started doing really well at both but, you know, not at the same time. ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[...]

[Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh. Reika, wherever you are, you have Karen's deepest sympathy.]

[pikapikapikarin]

I suppose so. I hope it's a one time thing, and we did learn a important lesson from it but still... not an experience I want to go through again.

[pikapikapikarin]

[This team, such a group of derps, really.]

[oceanicbutterfly]

Kise-san, what was that?

[pikapikapikarin]

An Akanbe... made from a problem book?

[antibadstuff]

Well as long as you learned something. [ fff doesn't sound like she means that at all ]

[pikapikapikarin]

Well, yeah. It was beauty however who taught us our lessons.

[antibadstuff]

Beauty?

[pikapikapikarin]

Our companion, Cure Beauty. She wasn't sure what she was doing, so as a result she decided to quit various things. I'm glad she found her answer though.

[fightbymoonlight]

Well. That was...

...

...unique.

[pikapikapikarin]

It certainly wasn't what I was planning on doing after exams to be honest.

[antibadstuff]

[ These battles are very, very strange to Buffy. Even when it's been explained, she's still got a big question mark over her head. ]

Do you guys normally fight bad guys with pop quizzes? I mean, I figure the singing's new, but..

[pikapikapikarin]

That was the first I've ever seen it happen before to be honest. And I'm sure the singing was new.

[antibadstuff]

Singing's my world's fault. Sort of. I think the community's having a little too much fun with the nice parts of it. [ Luckily, the community left out the spontaneous combustion part of the magic when it turned it into a virus. :'D ]

[pikapikapikarin]

Well there was no harm done. Other than my ego I suppose. [She still needs to study though considering everything.]

[antibadstuff]

It gets easier. My grades were enough to make a grown man cry when I was in high school, but I shaped up in the last year, blew up the school, then went to college.

[ And now college is back to being hard, but that's less inspirational. ]

[pikapikapikarin]

Really? So after adjusting to juggling combat and life, it gets easier to do both?

[antibadstuff]

After a while, yeah. I mean.. It'll never be completely normal, but it gets easier with practice.

[pikapikapikarin]

That's comforting then. I don't mind being a superhero, but I do enjoy being normal at times.

[antibadstuff]

[ Normal is impossible.

But she's like, not about to break the poor kid's dreams. Having that hope to hold onto in a world of weird is kind of important. ]

Nothing beats a good shopping trip and time with friends minus weapons.

[pikapikapikarin]

[Yeah, Precure lives are crazy-sauce too.]

That'll work! Or maybe a movie night!

[antibadstuff]

[ Buffy can relate. ]

Those are good too. I used to have those with my friends.

[pikapikapikarin]

Really? Well that's good then!
