“Lily…” Sakura stood. Lily put her hand on Sakura’s shoulder.

“Sakura, thank you for helping out today. But I think it’s time you head home, you don’t want your mom to be angry at you again right?” Lily finished with a plastered smile and a wink.

Sakura bent down and picked up Roots and held him close. “Yes, I suppose so….”

Lily nodded and turned to walk out of the Spam Zone. As she was walking toward the door she spotted Shino and Kagami walking toward her. Kagami was decked out in a Mod outfit, so she knew there was going to be trouble. "Oh great," she mumbled under her breath. To her surprise, they brushed past her without a single glance. "Huh?" Lily turned to spot them turning down into another hallway. She ran up it and read the sign above it. 'TV and Movie Discussion'. Lily watched as they walked to the end of the hallway and into the lounge.

Lily jogged forward and hide just within the shadows of the enterence. She watched as Shino and Kagami walked up to a man sitting by himself. He had black hair cut into a bowl shape. He was very pale, it reminded Lily of a pearl in the ocean's bottom. He wore a tan button up shirt and shorts. He stood up as they approached him.

"Are you DizzyKilla?" asked Kagami.

DizzyKilla nodded. "I.....a....am." he sputtered. "I...Is....some....sometha....someth ing the mat.....matter?"
Kagami narrowed his eyes. "Are you trying to be funny?"

Dizzy shook his head. "I...I've do.....done.....no....nothin....nothing wrong."
Lily watched as Dizzy fought to get the words out. That's when she realized, he wasn't talking like that on purpose. She took a step closer to get a bettre view, now she was interested.

Shino scratched his left ear, slightly annoyed. "I've been getting complaints from other members that you aren't using your provided language inducer. Is it broken?"
"No!" Dizzy said strongly. "I....I don...don't want....it."

"What do you mean you don't want it? Wouldn't you like to be able to finish a sentence within a short period of time?" Replied Kagami, taking a step closer to him.

"I'd....rather....be...ma...me." Dizzy stomped his foot. "I'd....ra....rather.....lean....learn.. .on...ma...my...own."

Shino sighed. "If you won't turn it on, I'll have to do it for you. You'll learn to like it."

"I...I'll....jus....just...ton...turn... it...of....off...ag...again!"

"I'll just ban you," Kagami snapped back.

"And I'll just get him unbanned," snapped Lily coming up behind them. "Dictatorship my ass."

Shino turned his head slowly, his stern face now annoyed. "Oh great, it's you."

Lily flashed him a cocky smile. "Damn straight it's me. DizzyKilla can talk however he wants." Lily jabbed her finger in Shino's chest. "You all will just have to learn to like it."

Kagami stepped between Lily and Shino, he towered over her, hands on his hips. His pose demanded athority. "This isn't normal member work, don't interfer."

"I don't give a damn how you see my rank as, I won't sit back and watch someone get wrongfully banned. There is no way there's a specific rule stating someone has to turn on their what-you-ma-call-it."

"A Language Inducer." Kagami sighed as if he was talking to a stubborn child. "How about I give you some points and you go run along and buy some dolls or whatever it is that little girls do. This is big boy stu..."

Lily kicked him in his left shin. "How's that for a little girl?!"

Kagami hissed in pain through gritted teeth as he rubbed his shin. "Shino! Did you see that! She insulted a Mod."

Shino snickered slightly. "Yeah, and it was pretty entertaining too."
"You're not helping." Kagami straightened. "Either way, your voice has no authority here. He's being annoying."

"There's no rule for being annoying is there, Shino?" Lily eyed him and Shino returned the glare.

Shino and Lily exchanged death glares, sparks flew between them. "Whatever," Shino said finally breaking the silence. He shoved his hands in his pockets and sulked off.

Kagami stood there, stunned. "Wha...! You're just going to leave?!"

Lily stuck out her tongue as she chuckled. Shino turned and eyed Kagami. "Come along, Kagami. I'll go buy you something that big boys like."
"If it doesn't involve booze or babes, I'm not interested." Kagami strolled after him. Lily caught it, before he left, a menicial gleam in Kagami's eye.

Dizzy came up behind Lily, staring at the ground. "Tha....thank yo....you. Ca....call.....me....Dizzy....pla....ple ase."

Lily turned around quickly and gave him a big toothy smile. "It's fine by me, Dizzy. I'm Lily." She extended her hand and he took it. "If Shino ever messes with you again you just tell me. Ok?"

"O...ok...."

A question kept poking at Lily until she just had to finally ask it. "Why don't you use that language thing anyway?"

"Ba...because...I....don't...wa....want. ..to...be...like...eve....everyo....ever yone....ele...else. I....If...you....ta...take....out...th.. .the...uni...unique....ness....of...ever ....everything....the...then...everyone. ..is...th...the...sa..same. Yo...you...los...lose.....the....abil... abilit...ability....ta...to...be...dif.. .differ...different...an...and...bei...b eing.....your...self. Tha...that's....why...I...la...left...th e....Rea....Real...World...beca....becau se....ever...everyone....had..lost....th a....their....li...light. Wha....why shod...should...I...hav...have....ta...t o...cha...change...beca...because...it's ...a..an...incon...inconvien...inconvien ce....to...tha...them?"

Her heart slowed to a gentle beat, listening to his words. "....Dizzy..." Even without a language inducer, she could read his heart, hear his words pourly sweetly from his mouth.

Dizzy stared at the ground, shifting his feet around uncomfortably. "Ba....but...if...Li...Lily...wan....wan ted....ma...me...ta..to...chan....change ...than...then...I...wod...would."
