//------------------------------// // You KNEW This Was Coming // Story: World's Shortest Crossovers: The Anthology Series Of Doom // by Estee //------------------------------// "I fail to see the need for this bard's upcoming performance." "Luna... there's times when I just don't have the words. None of us do. It's easier to let music do the speaking for us." "And therefore, you have brought in someone from 'very, very far away'." "Yes." "Because their lyrics somehow summarized your exact emotional state in having to cross a thousand years of abeyance to find me on the opposite shore." "Exactly."
