Anime, games, etc. aren't mine. La la la. Y'know that already though.

advice)

			Ask the Slayers
		    A bit of advice for
			   4.0-4.15

Viole: "No mail again. What a drag."

Diamond: "What'll we do now?" (sighs)

Maze: "You promised I could read the next one!" (pouts) "You promised!"

Miguel: "You can't read something that isn't there!"

Tasuki: "Looks like we're stuck doin' nothin'."

Chichiri: "How boring na no da!"

Tamahome: "So what'll we write about?"

Gatti: (walking into the room with Van following behind) "The effects
of too much game playing."

Tokiya: "Game playing?"

Van: "Yup. Too much game playing can definitely be hazardous to your
health."

::In the background Hitomi is heard screaming, "You can't keep me
locked up here forever! One day you'll have to let me out! Lemme play
'King of Fighters' again! C'mon guys! One more game! What's one more
game gonna do?"::

Tasuki: "What's with her?"

Chichiri: "Hitomi was out 'til the crack of dawn playing 'Street Figher
Turbo' and 'King of Fighters' na no da."

Van: "She wouldn't stop."

Gatti: "We tried telling her it was getting late."

Dallet: "Hitomi-sama and Reiy-san went out and played against each
other for hours. They were having way too much fun."

Van: "Even when Hitomi's finger got crushed by the joystick and turned
black and blue, she still insisted on playing 'K.O.F.' one more time."

::The bishonen pause and looked at Van with surprise::

Gatti: "She went to do a combo move and jerked the joystick too
quickly. Her finger couldn't move out of the way fast enough."

Tokiya: "Is she okay?"

Viole: "Sure, she'll be okay. It's just a little swollen."

Tasuki: "Her finger'll heal in no time."

Gatti: "Of course, her new gaming craze might not . . ."

::Hitomi continues shouting in the background. She screams, "I need to
play 'King of Fighters'! You don't understand! I wanna play some more!
Lemme outta here! Do you hear me?!? You aren't being very loyal
bishonen!!!"::

Gatti: (shouting at Hitomi so she can hear him from her room) "This is
for your own good Hitomi-sama!" (turns to the computer screen) "Games
are good, but too much gaming can be hazardous to your health."

Viole: "I once knew a guy who mowed down a whole store just so that he
could buy and play the latest game ahead of everyone else."

Miguel: "If my memory serves me right, that was you and your 'melef,
Viole."

Viole: "Oh, yeah. You're right. It was."

Van: "See? You don't wanna end up like Viole here, do you?"

Viole: "What's wrong with wanting to be like me?"

Van: "Plenty."

Viole: "Oh yeah?!!?"

::All the bishonen turn their attention from the catfight to Hitomi's
screams which have suddenly stopped::

Diamond: "Do you hear her anymore?"

Tamahome: "No, do you?"

Maze: "Something's up."

::They run and open the door only to find Hitomi is gone::

Tasuki: "She's escaped! She's gone!"

Gatti: (looks into the empty room) "Hitomi-sama!" (turns to the
computer) "So you see, gaming is dangerous to your health. Too much of
it can drive already insane people even more over the edge. See you
next time! Write in, onegai!" (runs off) "Hitomi-sama! Come back! Don't
blow all of your money on 'King of Fighters'! Hitomi-sama!!!"
