From the Priestess of the Almighty-Hyphen and Defender of Day-Glo Orange (don't ask, it's a loooong story!):

Ah yes, Zan-chan's idea of a "joke".

::Zoey grins just a bit:: Yes, it was, which she did after you asked her if she was going to give out awards.

You're making it sound like I was begging, Zoisite.

::Zoey opens his mouth to say something, then promptly closes it when Jade shoots him an irritated look::

::Turning back to the guests, the Air Warrior can't help but smirk:: It might have started out as a joke, but Zan-chan did say that it really was meant as a true award.

::The Western Commander crosses his arms over his chest:: Still, it's recognition from yet another friend that we had at the time.

::Jade nods slightly:: I realize that, but now we do have awards from people that are complete strangers.

::Zoey softly mutters:: I know. I lost the bet . . .

::The Author chuckles a bit, then smiles at you:: All right, now that you've seen this, where shall we go next?
