Limerick fer Himura

The kid with the skull of red,
Must have gone and hit his head,
For he thought it’d be fair,
To put gum in my hair,
Oddly he may end up dead




Poem fer Saucers fer Eyes

Ya shouldn’t quit yer day job,
Yer writing makes the kids sob

Yer brain must be awful stale
‘cause yer poem was epic fail.

Poem fer Lieutenant Kyoko

Thanks for all the great fun,
Even without a gun,
The dart game was a wonderful blast.

We sure got that blond thing,
And my how she did scream,
And we got the hell out of there fast!



Ode to the Spaz (Watanuki)

While we’re stuck here on this island,
Let’s find a level ground,
Because up on a high land,
The rain will wash you down.

I know how much you liked me,
I’ll visit now and then.
Well it’s been fun,
But now that I’m done
Your sass I will suspend

Your artistic production
aided in self induction
assisting oil production
with bodily deconstruction,
causing soil obstruction
causes land value reduction
and hinders road construction
that’s my deduction.

My words you shouldn't misconstrue
So let us not pretend,
I ever cared about you,
I’m really not your friend.

So have the weather rush on in,
Let animals gather round.
The flag it may tatter
But that won’t really matter
Once you’re six feet under ground.

*Can be sung to the tune of Tom Lehrer's song: When you are Old and Gray. 


Saucers fer Eye's poem:

Monkeys are brown
My jumpsuit is green
Bananas are yellow
And so are traffic lights


My Edit:

Monkeys are brown,
My jumpsuit is green,
I look like a clown,
My brows are obscene

Sometimes big things come in small packages.

These have been some of my favorite shorts and one liners with the other Islanders.  Ain’t they a hoot?

Gin: If I sing... to the bugs... Would they prefer a ballad or something more upbeat?

Kenshin: I believe that is illegal in many places.
Gin: Ticklin'? Really. Where? Louisiana perhaps?

 
Kid!Kurapika: but... but you're two guys and a half.
Gin: Which one of us is the half?

 
Kurapika: I have been told you deliberately 'tickled' me.
Gin: As I recall, ya seemed ta be enjoyin' it very much.
Kurapika: ...That is ..I had completely lowered my guard!
Gin: I could tell that when ya started gigglin' like a little school girl.

 
Kyoko: Why won't her cockroaches (eew stomp them!) let you in?
Gin: Dunno, why don't ya ask 'em? I tried, but apparently I don’t speak cockroach. Hey better yet, pose yer questions in the form of a song, that's what Giselle suggests and since they're her friends, she oughtta know best, yeah? Maybe you’ll have better luck since yer lower on the food chain.

I like food an' I'll try anythin' once.

I ain't real picky.

From Gin's  Entry: ... Found that out the hard way when that lion was chasin’ after me earlier.   
Really wishin’ I had my zanpakuto about now, wonder what lion meat would taste like…

Gin to Kronos: Ya had a nice battle with a shark? I'll bet that was interestin' in the water. Ya sure it's dead? Hope it washes ta shore, have had a cravin' for shark fin soup all week. Of course, it looks like I'm in Las Nochas again, rather than on the island, so it might not get washed up after all. Bummer.

Gin to Kenshin: Ahh, but there's no way Red could'a missed every single rat squirrel with that little fork and knife attack of hers goin' on in that other entry though... why not just use one of the unlucky ones?
I’ve never had rat squirrel meat before.. is it tasty?

Gin about Chacha: She tried writin’ somethin’ on the ground, but I could’uv sworn she got struck by lightin’ after that.  Of course, I could’uv been hallucinatin’ the scent of burnin’ flesh.  I am a bit hungry.

Gin to Matsumoto!Kurapika:  Now that you're... aware, lets go eat!

( The Yummy Bunny Saga )

I ain't insultin' ya, I'm just statin' the truth~!

If ya happen to run across my path, here's some examples of the thinly veiled insults truths I might tell ya.

Gin to Carrot: My, you seem like a somewhat literate giant, not a very strong one though if ya can’t handle a bird or two.

Gin to Carrot: Ah, ya can just call me Ichimaru fer the time bein'. I'll just call ya Carrot if ya don't mind, or should I just call ya Ironhead?

Gin to Nanami: Woah, ya really are a rich elite, ain’t ya. How’d ya ever survive last time ya were stuck here?


Kurapika: I think Mister Gin said he found it interesting!
Gin: Oi oi, if she wants ta give it to you, it's her prerogative. Don't mix me up in the situation. 'Sides, I don't have much use for a fertility figure.
Kurapika: Excuse me, but... Do you think I do!?
Gin: Well, you should know best if ya need help in that department.

I promise ya can't rile me up, but you can try.

I'm just a laid back kinda guy, I have the patience of a saint.  Yer insults, name callin', ignorance and attempts at physical abuse will only further amuse me.

Chacha: Itchymaru-san, will you be my partnur for Island-san game?
Gin: Sure, I don't mind. Ya can just call me Gin if ya wanna.
Chacha: YAY! YAY! Okay Gin! I can't wait to play with you! =D  Gin...Why do you want to be named after a drink that makes you funny?
Gin: Where I come from in means Gin means 'silver'. Ya don't pronounce my name with a 'j' sound 'neither ya use the soft 'g'.  Say, ain't ya a little young ta know about alcoholic beverages?
Chacha: Elizabeth teaches me a lot of stuff. =D  Okay, so it is pronownsed with a g like in the word gay, rite? Gay means happy. That's what Seravi-sensei told me. So Gin means silver for you and happy for me! =D
Gin: Hahaha yer a funny little gal.  Sure, whatever floats yer boat, kiddo.

Haha, ain’t ‘lil Red cute?

Sho!Kenshin: Well I shall simply say he gives off a rather unsavory aura.
Gin: …hey.
Sho!Kenshin: Something tells me you are not at all offended by my observation.
Gin: I don't know what yer talkin' 'bout. I'm obviously highly offended.
Watanuki: The truth hurts.
Gin: Trust me, I'm cryin'.
Sho!Kenshin: Yes, I can tell by the wide grin. I believe your fragile psyche will survive the terrible blow of my comments.
Gin: ♥

Sometimes people take advantage of my kindness.

I guess that’s why I ain’t kind to people very often.

Gin: Hey Giselle~! I got a swan egg! ♥
Well, sorta... s'just a bit ...gloopy now.
Giselle: Oh no, did you break it?! I hope you wouldn't mind getting another, I don't think I can use a broken one, it wouldn't be good for you!
Gin: Ya want me to get another one? I wasn't really plannin' on gettin' this one. It just kinda fell into my lap, literally.
Giselle: Oh, that would be so kind of you~♥
Gin: ...sure...


Chacha: Yay! Can I sleep with you toonight Papa Gin-san? I get bad dreams and Mama Ken-san let me sleep with him. But he's not here any more so I get scared.
Watanuki: Don't you dare lay a hand on her Gin.  I think you should sleep in your own bed Chacha. I'll give you Dolly-san for protection. I don't want you anywhere on that letch guy's bed.
Gin: The Spaz is right for once (except for a few points) Red, yer gonna have ta sleep in yer own bunk. Ya can sleep in the one right next ta mine though. I just ain't compact sized like Himura, I can hardly fit on the bed as it is.
Chacha: Okay, I will push my bed next to yours Papa Gin-san.
Gin: I s...s'pose that'd be alright

In my copious free time, I sometimes like to...

... teach the young'uns 'bout sex education.

( ...elevate the Spaz' blood pressure. )

...throw things at Himura.

I like to rock the boat, specifically yer boat.

The more frustrated ya get, the better my day will be.

Upon findin’ out Nanami hates talkin’ ‘bout magic apples and majik skwares:
Gin: Ya should ask Kiryuu about yer majik skware, she knows a lot about them.
Chacha: Really? Who is Kiwiyu?
Gin: She's the cute blond gal who screams a lot.
Chacha: Why duz she scream a lot? Is she unhappy? We shuld make her happy again, Gin-san! Ken-san found me, so we shuld find you so that we can play together! Then we make Kiwiroo-san happy by making her r partnur too! Then she will be happy that she is our frend! =D You are very pretty Gin-san. Even if you like to be named after an alkohollic drink. =D
Nanami to Gin: You are so dead.
Gin: Oh my, how scary!
Chacha: Don't kill Gin-san! He's very nice! You just need frends to take care of you, Nanashi Kimiroof-san. We will help! Gin-san will help too won't we Gin-san?
Gin: Naw

Kurapika: She has a been granted an extremely convenient position. It is a sort of unreachable fortress in a tactical location.
Nanami: Hah! It's about time I got the upper hand here. This must be my reward for having to use the grotto latrines for a month!
Kid!Gin: Yer gonna have ta go pee at some point. And when ya do... I'll be waitin' nearby~~!
Ah, and I'd stay away from the Grotto latrines at this point if I was you.
Nanami: I can hold it-- hey! You shouldn't talk to a lady like that! >
Why, what's wrong with them now besides the obvious?
Kid!Gin: Nothing much... just this:
