OK this is what I've got this week. LOL. ******************************************** Prompt# 121--Entangle Joe looked up as the door to the Snack opened, the chimes jangling loudly. It was Ken, looking none the worse for wear. He pulled his aviator style sunglasses off and shoved them into his jacket pocket as he slid onto the stool next to him. He took that back. Ken looked beat. Joe wondered what happened with Ken's "date" the night before. He had been at the airstrip hanging out with Ken, keeping him company as he worked on aircraft maintenance, when the girl had come by with her car. Her little red sports car gleamed in the sun, as she climbed out with tickets in hand for one of the hottest concerts to hit Utoland in months. He had raised mental eyebrows at her. If it wasn't for the fact that her hair was a light brown, and that she was a smidge shorter, Joe would have thought she was Jun. Ken certainly hadn't mentioned her before, and he wondered where they met. Ken's face had taken on an almost panic stricken look when he said he was going to leave, and would catch up with him later. When he had left, the girl had parked herself next to Ken on the steps of his shack, starting to entangle her fingers in his hair, as she played with it. "So..." Joe asked him ever so causally, as he stirred his coffee. "What happened ?" Ken looked at him, dumbfounded. "What you mean 'what happened'?" A smirk crossed Joe's face. "Did you put your chocolate in her peanut butter?" "What?" Joe just laughed quietly and shook his head as he took as sip of his coffee.

"Did you put your chocolate in her peanut butter?" I've never imagined Joe putting it like that! Lol

That is an imaginative description, RB. I never would have thought of it.

Becky -- here's a bare-bone summary: two people are walking along, heading toward each other, minding their own business. One is eating peanut butter from a jar, the other is eating a chocolate bar. They stumble, causing the chocolate bar to fly into the jar of peanut butter. "Hey!" one guy cries, "You got your chocolate in my peanut butter!" "You got your peanut butter on my chocolate!" They take a taste and discover what a wonderful flavor combination they'd stumbled upon (pun intended). Thus, the Reese's peanut butter cup was born.

Hee hee hee RB, I've not heard it put quite like that before either... Neither have I heard of Reece's Peanut Butter cups either, (the commercial or the product) but that might be because they aren't available over here!

Yeah, my mind came up with something slightly perverted this weekend. Probably stemmed from listening to too much AC/DC lately! LOL. Tongue

Really? I thought you might be able to get them in the UK. I know some of our sweets made it over there. I have a friend in the UK who always asks me to send her Hot Tamales and cinnamon candies though, so maybe the peanut butter cups aren't popular either. Question

Totally! shithittingfan Ooooh, Jun is in t-r-o-u-b-l-e! I think she needs to ask her new "business partner" where her "watch" went. And thanks EW for giving a run down on the candy commercial! Smile

For those who haven't seen the awesomeness that is Reese's peanut butter cups commercials, here is an example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJLDF6qZUX0 I haven't heard that expression used the way Joe did before, though! I thought something like, 'Did you put your sausage in her bun?' was more common. Trust Joe to use a more distinctive phrase! KT, frankly, I'm surprised Ken hasn't mentioned the lost bracelet to Nambu already. That's very serious, and could mean trouble for all of them (look what happened when she lost her shoe).

TJ - I think because of the incident of the lost shoe, and Ken's own experience with losing his bracelet, he was giving her a chance to find it herself before going to Nambu with the news.... Oh, and thanks for the link BTW, I found it... interesting... to say the least Smile RB - do I take it nobody trusts Kaden?

Well, those Galactors do pop up in the most unlikely places! Galactor Me, personally? Don't trust him as far as I could throw him. Plus what happened to the goopy eyes Jun was making at him? LOL.

I am always surprised at the various English expressions related with sex which seem to be endless... In Korean language, there are only about 10 words or less for each- having sex/men's/women's. For blow job, we have only one expression. We don't even have any Korean word for the opposite activity of blow job. It's pretty interesting to learn English expressions! KT, In my opinion Ken's decision might be wise- if her commander 'punished' her, I think she would never try to find it. lol Smirk

I keep learning things from you, Rachel. Your culture is very interesting. I agree with you about Ken, but he's too stuck on rules to let himself take that step.

Now I remember it. Thanks, EW! Since my allergy to chocolate, I try not to think about Reese's Cups.

I'm gonna skip writing for this one since I accidentally jumped past it, which means I get to read and comment, woo: Redbird: Uh oh, Ken got in over his head, didn't he? Smile I can't believe Joe did the chocolate/peanut butter thing! Hehe. KT: Ouch. I can imagine all of them kind of slinking out of there, embarrassed for her and wondering if Ken's head is gonna explode during her dressing down, heh. It's funny, I'm not sure I trust Kaden just as a horny guy trying to muscle in on a girl, let alone that he might be Galactor! rachel: Interesting!! For such a prudish country in some ways, the US is rather obsessed with sex of all kinds. Smile EW: Wow, that's intense!!!! I can't wait to see where this is going.
