The Prince Speaks: Quick Update

In an effort to lift Keily's spirits, everyone present pitched in to help her make dinner for us all. She was weak, sore and still injured, but she had to get up and do something, because she did not feel that she could just sit down and let other people do any work for her. So we worked together for a night of nothing, but Italian cuisine.

The young woman had disappeared halfway through the boiling of the linguini, so that left myself to stand and keep watch of it. The Nobodies were having a time preparing a Cesar salad; Larxene chopping up the lettuce into manageable pieces, Axel frying up some actual pieces of bacon and Xigbar had accompanied Demyx out to buy some dressing. We had invited Nexu's group for a stay at the house, which meant that we had to augment the amount of food we were preparing. They hadn't arrived yet when I heard the peals of laughter and music coming from upstairs where Keily's room was.

And then, as Nexu and her group was welcome into the house by Axel, the song started to play, which, for very obvious reasons...enraged our new guests like nothing else. They chased Keily around the second floor of the house, their footsteps easily heard below as well as Keily's rather loud singing. The original was annoying enough as it was, but with Keily's slight change in version, well...

Several things broke, lots of swar words were tossed and Keily actually seemed to be having a very good time, despite her self-pity and loathing about everything she had done. Something must have uplifted her spirits and it was only after she tripped on a chair did the chasing stop and I was able to ask her where she had learned such a atrocious song.

"I learned it ten years ago! At least...I think it was ten years ago...might've been less than that...But an old friend sent me a message and reminded me of the song and I couldn't help, but switch in a few words of my own-hahahaha..."

Kadaj, growled from where he was being restrained by Reno? He said some very ungainly things at Keily and the girl only stuck her tongue out back at him.

"Only a Shinra..."

"That's right, only a Shinra, Kadaj," she said, possibly hinting at who had exactly sent her such an idea.

Well, at least we're heading towards a more normal direction, but I can't help, but wonder what might be going on up here in Babylon Palace.

-----------------------------

The following was typed up by Keily after Severus relinquished the laptop to her. Be advised that it is not wise to sing this song in front of Kadaj or any of the Remnants. A note is that when Keily sang this song, the word 'witch' was pronounced with a different beginning consonant.

Well, Kadaj's mom a witch.
She's a big fat witch.
She's the biggest witch in the whole wide world.
She's a stupid witch, if there ever was a witch.
She's a witch to all the boys and girls.

On Monday she' a witch.
One Tuesday she's a witch and on Wednsday to Saturday, she's a witch.
Then on Sunday just to be different, she's a super king kamehameha wi-atch!

Have you ever the Remnant Kadaj's mom?
She's the biggest witch in the whole wide world!
She's a mean old witch and she has stupid hair.
She's a witch, witch, witch, witch, witch, witch, witch!
Witch, witch, witch, witch, witch, witch, witch, witch, she's a stupid witch!
Kadaj's mom's a witch and she's a dirty witch!

Talk to kids around the world and it might go a little bit something like this!

*insert incomprehensible singing here*
