**LILYMU!!!**

A giant mechanical dragon roars, trembling the entire city. Our heroes of Lilymu, Guano, Lily, Mitsuki, and Kappa Mikey stand their ground against this giant beast, dodging its lasers with difficulty.

"It pains me to even DARE say this," The purple-skinned Gonard growled with rage at his mechanation who decidedly gained sentience and desired to destroy Tokyo. "But unfortunately, we're gonna have to work together on this one." He roared now at the dragon. "YOU! If anybody's gonna conquer Tokyo, it's gonna be me!"

"Should we trust him?" Mitsuki, the blue-haired fearless one, pondered aloud.

"I don't trust Gonard. This could be a deadly trap!" Lily worryingly pointed out.

"Guano guano!"

"We'll help him out!" The masked Mikey said. "Besides, to take this dragon down, it's gonna need ALL our help! We'll have to work together!"

Now with wrist-mounted blasters, as well as Guano's power crystal, all five of them decided to turn up the heat, launching energy blasts at the mechanized terror. Mitsuki saw a small, tiny weak point in its lengthy neck, and decided to fire right there!

"WARNING! SELF DESTRUCT IN... NOW."

The mechanized dragon exploded, covering everying in smoke and raining metal debris on the ground, clonking a few heads?!

*CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTT!!!*

Guano's vein was almost literally coming out of his forehead, as the backdrop was getting rolled up. "THE DRAGON WASN'T SUPPOSED TO EXPLODE YET! Who shot it down?"

"Oops... sorry, Guano." No longer playing her part of the bold, tough warrior, Mitsuki blushed, the shame of ruining the take setting in.

Lily, also shedding her cutesy innocence, almost raged herself. "Great! Now there's SMOKE and SOOT in my hair!" She ran a finger down her own cheek. "AND ON MY SKIN!!!"

"Aw, lighten up Lily." Big, lovable-off-the-set Gonard patted her shoulder. "Gotta get dirty once in a while!" He looks to the director, feeling a rumbly in his tumbly. "Is it lunch time yet?"

"Um... I think so." Confirmed Guano.

"AWESOME!" Still in purple and his show costume, he pulls out a baguette, loaded with meats, and wolfs it down, burping after. His stomach rumbled louder. "Hey, is it lunch time yet?"

"You... just... ATE!" Lily roared, unable to handle her co-star's recent idiocy.

"Wait..." Mitsuki looked around, then started panicking. "Where's Mikey?"

The group turned around, seeing Mikey Simon, with his costume torn and his mask ripped off his face, climbing out the large pile of dragon mech chunks.

"MIKEY!!" Mitsuki squealed in delight, before attempting to retain composure... which failed. "You're alright!"

"Wow, was that a rush." He slid down the scraps. He walked over to Guano, again unaware of Mitsuki. "But Guano, why'd you set the thing to explode right away?"

"I was SAVING it for the climax!" Guano exasperated himself, now sulking on the floor. "Oh, this is JUST perfect... The dragon's busted, and it's gonna take more than a few hours to repair it! We can't finish the season finale today!! Now the season finale's gonna have to wait, and the fans will get riled up, and Ozu will cancel the show, and I'll have to go back to PROMOTING PET STORES AS I DANCE IN A LITTLE CAGE!!!!!"

"Season finale?!" The four humans in the group were shocked to hear of this news.

"THAT'S RIGHT, my stars." They turned around to their boss, Ozu. "Summer is looming around the corner."

Yes Man appeared behind him, all muscled up and in a thong. "FUN IN THE SUN!"

"And with that, it will give the show's writers time to come up with scripts for a new season!" Looking at the disarray in the studio, his gray eyebrows perked. "Besides, you all look like you could use the much anticipated vacation about now."

"Well, a vacation WOULD be marvelous." Lily agreed.

"And besides, we can't finish the episode today because the dragon's busted. So, in MY director's opinion," The purple-furred spoke. "Let's call it a day!"

A vein instinctively sprung in Ozu's forehead. "ONLY *I* DICTATE WHEN YOU CAN CALL IT A DAY!"

Yes Man sprung behind him. "Let 'em have it!"

"You really think I should?" Ozu looked back at his, uh, awkward-looking subordinate. He shrugged. "Very well. We will resume the episode tomorrow, and then when it's all done--"

Yes Man interrupted, jigging in a grass skirt. "VACATION, ACTIVATION!" He got a dirty look from Ozu, and slunk away.

--

"So, we got something to do or some place in mind to visit while we're on our off-season vacation?" Guano asked.

The blond shrugged her opinion. Gonard was distracted with the thoughts of how to make a sandwich trampoline. Mitsuki was looking at Mikey dreamily, serving as no surprise to anyone (including the more oblivious American).

Mikey also shrugged, but decided to say his mind. "Well, I could go visit my parents back in America, since it's been a while since I left." His response unintentionally caused Mitsuki to flutter away in despair, knocking over their personal chairs, as well as flat-out breaking Mikey's new just-arrived actor's chair. "Mitsuki, you alright?" Mikey helped her up.

"Yeah, I'm fine." She covered up her embarrassment, but then got puppy dog eyes the moment he turned away.

"Yeah, you can go and visit your family Mikey," Lily easily waved him off. "while the rest of us can soak up the sun at the beach!!"

Gonard got chirpy with the thought too! "Oh yeah I like the sound of that!" His mouth started to water. "I'm finally gonna eat me that sand castle!" He could already picture himself plopping ketchup and soy sauce on it, making him salivate even more!

"GONARD! STOP DROOLING ON ME!"

"Oh!" Gonard apologized. "Sorry, Guano."

"Well, I'M gonna get packing!" Lily squealed with glee, starting to leave the room.

"WE STILL HAVE TO FINISH THE FINALE!"

"Whatever, Guano!" Lily screamed out. "The Sun awaits its diva! And I WON'T disappoint!"

And while Mikey started going on and on about a story to Guano and Gonard, Mitsuki quickly dashed to her friend, getting all flustered and panicky.

"Lily! Lily! I need your help with something!" The blue-haired girl wouldn't keep her mouth shut.

"WHAT is it?" She was annoyed by her friend. "I'm trying to figure out what I'm gonna wear at the beach vacation we're all inevitably going to take!"

"Well, uh, do you know where Mikey's gonna spend his vacation at?"

"Beats me, Mitsuki. I wouldn't be surprised if he decides to go see his parents for the small bit of vacation he has." She was smiling with a sense of relief. "It means more beach and one less eye-sore for me!"

"Well, I bet he would want to see them, since it has been at least a year or so... It'd be nice for them to--"

She snapped in a 360, and stared at her hard. "ALRIGHT Mitsuki, I get it! Guano and Gonard get it! The whole world gets it! Even that bonehead Mikey's getting it! You like him!" She continued her position. "I'm betting he's thinking about that one kiss during last year's christmas party--"

Mitsuki cut her off, with hope lacing her voice. "You think he's--"

"Why can't you do it yourself?!" She snapped, shocking the blue-haired. She sighed, realizing she stepped a little over the line. "Look, all I'm saying is that you should do like what I told you to do last time you wanted his attention: take the initiative!"

"You... you think he'd notice if I did??"

"Um, HELLO? Of course he would!" Her hands plopped on Mitsuki's shoulders. "Just take the initiative, tell him that you like him," The blond noticed the very, VERY hidden spark of lust in the blue-haired's eyes. "And ever since that whole kabuki fiasco with your dad from what I heard, believe me, he's noticed you, and he'll go ga-ga if you tell him that you want him, and at that moment, he'll be ALL YOURS!!"

"You're positive?"

"Absolutely!" She smiled genuinely. "Mitsuki, you should confess to him. You'll at least get one thing off your chest."

"Lily..." The taller girl looked down at her best friend, before bringing her into a Gonard-sized hug. "Oooh thank you! You're the best friend ever!"

"Yeah yeah, no problem, now let me go Mitsuki!" She broke free from her friend's grip. "Knowing how dense Mikey is, I'm gonna wish you a LOT of luck, girl!"

--

Laying all alone on the couch in his apartment, the American looked all around in a slow, 'bored to death with nothing else to occupy my time' mood. The thought of having this long a vacation time hasn't dawned upon him this greatly since his days in high school during week-long holidays.

"Man... after this, we're gonna get the WHOLE summer to ourselves, and the best thing I could come up with is 'going to visit my folks'? Man... I'm such a dweeb." He breathed deeply again, eyes steering back at the ceiling. "Still... it's been more than a year already since I came here, got this sweet acting job, and with the whole culture shock still setting in, I feel like I still haven't gotten myself adjusted here." He sat up again, at the sound of knocking on his door. "W'ever. Just a minute!" He opened his door, smiling to see Mitsuki at the door. "Hey Mitsuki."

"Mikey! Hi!" She beamed back, quickly flustering herself. "Um, h-how are you?"

"I'm doing alright. Not doing much of anything, though. Just chillin'." A small burst of awkward silence settled in. "Would you like to hang with me for a bit, Mitsuki?"

"Oh, su-sure!" She fluttered a response, walking slow steps inside. She felt the inner voice inside her telling her to not back down into silence, so the best she could attempt is small talk. "So, have you decided on someplace to go for the vacation?"

"Well, I'm not really sure right now." He sat back down. "I thought about going back to Ohio to visit my old town, see how everyone's doing. But it would feel weird if I went by myself; I wanted to at least bring someone from here to there to show them around."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I mean, you and Gonard and Guano and Lily were all great in showing me around Tokyo, introducing me to your customs, traditions, lifestyles, and all that. It still feels weird, to be honest, but I am starting to get the hang of this place."

The girl started blushing slightly. "And you wanted to repay us in turn by showing us around some place in the U.S.?"

"Of course!" Mikey sounded a little excited. "I mean, my hometown's a, whatcha call it, a quaint place, but even I would want to see New York, or Hollywood, or Miami even! And if I got to see it with you guys, it would be all LEVELS of amazing!"

"Ah, I've always wondered what Hollywood's like. Maybe we could go there sometime? Together?" The blue-haired girl got all hopeful.

"Yeah..."

The moment once more dwindled into awkwardness. Both crossed sights quickly before turning away, feeling almost painful streaks of red covering their faces. Both opened their mouths at the same time, but halted.

"You first, Mitsuki."

"Okay..." She looked into his eyes, noting a realization that they were like faded sapphires peering into her very conscious. "Mikey, I..." It was now or never-- "MIKEY I LOVE YOU!"

Now his face was aflush with crimson and eyes widened, seeing her emerald eyes on the verge of tearing up. "Mitsuki..."

"Mikey, I've loved you since the first time we met you. You're so charming, handsome, reckless, fun, and amazing... and even when you paid little attention to me, or paid more attention to Lily, or wrecked my first photo album, or even when my heart conflicted with what was the right thing to do, I never stopped loving you!" Her eyes shut themselves, trying as they could to halt the stream of tears seeping from her closed lids. "I can understand if you don't want to be with someone like me; I don't deserve to be in the same room you're in, Mikey..."

She stood straight up and was about to take her leave from his sight, but her arm was grasped tightly by the only other person in the room. Her eyes opened the instant she was pulled into a hug by the American male. Toe-to-toe, his forehead placed against the middle of her neck, he only strengthed his embrace.

"Mitsuki, I've been feeling the same way..." He said gently, unintentionally netting an inward gasp from the Japanese female. "And, I'm sorry I've hurt you so many times... you're so cool, and alluring, and sweet, and loving too. Really, I'M the one who doesn't deserve your love, Mitsuki."

"Mikey..." She turned her gaze down slightly, meeting their eyes again, his sapphire blue eyes no longer dulled but now seemingly brighter to the girl.

(A/N: For a visual aid, Mikey's not drawn in his American artstyle anymore, but rather like everyone else now. Heh... turning Japanese)

His hands were loosening their hold on Mitsuki's body, and beelining calmly to her arms, clasping them serenely. With fingers tugging onto her sleeves, Mikey planted his lips on Mitsuki. His eyes shut themselves to better take in the taste of her lips, while her eyes were bolted wide open, feeling a mad blush overtake her. Rather than fighting it though, she gave in to her dream come true and kissed him back, revelling in the feel of her bliss coming to life.

Her hands placed themselves at his sides, keeping a firm hold on her beloved American. Both dislodged their lips slowly, a pair of greens met a pair of blues, seeming to glitter faintly, before both meshed their lips in unison. Sighs of joy left as their lips were pressing slowly into each other's. Their lips finally locked perfectly in place, with Mikey daringly outlining Mitsuki's lips with his tongue. Her tongue in turn met his, both feeling close-to-electric vibes coursing through them, as their tongues acceptably tasted each other, alongside their hands travelling all along the contours of their held bodies.

With mouths separating, save for a faint trail of saliva connecting their tongues, both eyes were locked dreamily in place. The male ran a hand carefully across her cheek, her skin almost like plush to him. "Mitsuki..."

"Mikey..."

He looked quickly at the door, then back to her eyes. He only smiled widely as he headed to his door, and locked it. His hands found their way back to her sides. "Mitsuki, even though I told you I love you, I want to show you how much I love you."

Her smile quickly went to a crimson blush, immediately getting the gist of his declaration. "M-Mikey, you... you really want to..." With his nod, her smile returned to her. This surpassed even her wildest dreams she had about him. "Oh Mikey... this is so bold of you to say, even beyond your usual standards..." She stated with a wisp of seduction.

"So, care to try me, Mitsuki?"

"I'm all yours, Mikey Simon!"

Her body glomped and seemed to overall overwhelm him, pressing her lips deeply on his. He reciprocated the kiss, then released the Japanese female's lips, in favor of his hands locking with hers, guiding her to his bedroom.

--

From the shut door, a thick trail of shedded clothing graced the messy floor, with undergarments now dropped down from hips and kicked off of feet; Mikey and Mitsuki, perched on the edge of his bed, were now in mere awe, gazing upon each other's unhindered, nude bodies.

Mikey's eyes were fixating themselves all over her body, from her shapely legs, her wavy hips, her luscious figure, her full, curvy chest, to her lengthy ocean-colored hair and emerald eyes. He thought she was like that portrait where a naked woman was riding a giant clam, only many times better. Add to the fact that her face flustered a slight pink with his eyes locking on to hers made him realize that she WAS human, that she was right here, and she wanted to be his.

"Mitsuki..." His hand touched her cheek again, while his other arm wrapped around her side and brought her closer to his side.

"Mikey..."

Her arms in turn lashed wispfully around his back, as their lips pressed once more against each others. With skin against skin, the warm, euphoric sensation of holding each other drove them even closer, desperate for an even greater reach of this desire. Their lips opened, with tongues padding and wrapping around themselves, hands gripping earnestly onto their bodies.

After the break of lips passed, the American's lips proceeded to her neck, pecking and tasting Mitsuki's warm skin, with his hands latching now onto her sides, pushing both of them down onto the bed. Detaching and retaching his lips to her warm neck, Mikey continued kissing down her neck, hearing soft sighs of delight leaving the girl's mouth. Planting pecks on her collarbone and proceeding carefully down to the top of her chest, he could feel some hesitance from his co-star.

All it took was a glance from his warm sapphires, for her fears left her almost immediately, nodding to him to continue with this kind act. His body shuffled on top of hers, one of his hands grasped gently onto one of Mitsuki's soft breasts, and soft blue eyes lit up from the soft gasp exiting her lips. His fingers started to massage slowly, while his free hand wrapped around to her lower back, dipping into the curve of her backside.

One of her lithe hands swept right through his strands of orange hair, pulling the top half of Mikey's body down to meet hers, resting her head on his shoulder as she kept cooing lowly. His free hand once more roamed across her waist, resting itself on her thigh, as his fingerly ministrations grew stronger, pulsing more desire through the Japanese girl's body.

He could only let a smile cross his features, the feeling of love washing over him was catching up to him. He kissed alongside her neck once more, her moans becoming like a sweet tone to Mikey. His body slid down a little to accomodate his lips pressing against one of Mitsuki's nipples, netting a deeper groan, his lips more than triggering the now-sensitive nerve. With both her hands now roosting in his soft hair, his digits began swimming down her sides, caressing her creamy smooth skin, with one hand following the path between her legs.

His lips kept licking and sucking on her, and tugging playfully on her as well, drawing an increase in the volume of her groans and gasps. Mitsuki's eyes shot wide open when his hand found her entrance, coupled with a high squeak of a gasp, diverting her American from his pleasing act.

"M-Mikey..." Her lips barely let out.

"Mitsuki... are you--"

She interrupted him. "I'm fine, Mikey... Please, don't stop this feeling..."

True to her request, his fingers continued exploring her sex, each one teasing her in such a tiny way that all together made Mitsuki want him even more. Her body was moving closer, drawn to his movements, her hand unintentionally, yet somehow instinctively, clasped onto Mikey's full arousal. She blushed another crimson tone, as her lithe, lovely fingers gripped his sex, drawing out a groan from her Mikey, who in turn had lunged his middle finger inside her as well.

The blue-haired girl felt like she was on fire now, from both the feel of his streamlined middle finger slipping inside her, and from the sudden perverse thought of how filled she'd be with his penis inside of her. Her fingers worked slowly in turn, stroking him off slowly, netting an infrequent string of gasps from Mikey, while his fingers started playing with her cave, stroking her nether-lips while his middle finger pumped into her moist warmth.

The two were lost in a state of bliss. Everything that existed around them seemed to fade away, phasing out of the stream of time; there were only two beings, a man and a woman, drawn to each other, sighs, gasps, and groans amplified for their own senses. Their senses were treating them to desires that human beings craved the most. And coupled with strong emotional attachments, the desires became stronger.

Mitsuki wrapped her free arm around his lower back, drawing him into a long, heated kiss. Her lips parted with his, looking him deeply in his eyes. "Mikey..."

"Mitsuki..."

"Mikey, I..." She tugged lightly on him, sending his body a message. "I... I want you inside me."

He only nodded. He would fulfill the request of the woman he loved. But a nagging thought prodded the back of his mind. "Are you sure, Mitsuki? I wouldn't continue this if you weren't comfortable with it."

She smiled dreamily at him taking her feelings into consideration. "I am sure, Mikey. I love you more than anything. With you, I would be eternally happy."

He then positioned himself in front of her, as bodies were nearing each other, and the American slowly pressed himself inside of her warmth, loving the enveloping feel of her warmth. He kept sliding himself until he came to a halt, looking wordlessly into Mitsuki's eyes for permission to take her innocence away. And with a confirming nod, he thrust himself completely inside her, taking both their virginities away.

Mitsuki gasped sharply at the action, biting her bottom lip to keep her discomfort a secret. He leaned in and kissed her gently, weaving his fingers in tune with hers, letting the both of them revel in the pure delight of sex. His lips parted slowly from hers, her slight whimpers going away, replacing her with a more, delightful feeling inside her.

"Are you alright, Mitsuki?" Mikey asked shyly, planting a kiss on her cheek.

"Y-yes, I'm fine, Mikey..." She nodded, looking up into his brilliant, sapphire eyes. Her soft, nude legs locked themselves along his legs, her lips moving into a state of seduction. "So... as you were, Mikey Simon."

His lips moved into a fierce smirk, as he pulled out almost completely, before pumping back in. It was an awkward feeling at first to the both of them, but as his body kept a constant rhythm, the awkward feelings became first nature to them, small gasps seeping out of their mouths. The warm feeling of flesh wrapping around his sex drove the actor into a sweet euphoria, sending him the signal to please this girl; to give this sweet, selfless girl everything that she deserves.

His hands gripped onto her soft hips, and built the pace of his movements a little faster, grinding his hips against hers, the soft, building moans of his co-star sounding delightful to his ears. The feel of skin-on-skin pushes Mikey even closer to her, sinking his lips to her neck, nipping forcefully at her skin in time with his thrusts. Her moans were a mix of shock and pleasure, her fingers digging into her lover's back, her legs wrapping themselves along his hips.

Mitsuki's legs were pushing Mikey's hips deeper against her, making his thrusts become deeper and harder, driving newer, electric sensations through their bodies. Her moans were becoming louder, almost foreign and unbearable to contain inside, while Mikey's grunts and groans were sent through her neck, making her feel the reverberations. As he pressed harder and deeper, her hands dug into him, and in one quick instant, Mikey was now with his back against the bed, and Mitsuki was atop of him, looking deeply into his eyes.

Her hips started bouncing at a fast pace, desperately wanting to feel even more of him inside her love-canal. A loud, sharp gasp from her sweet mouth, her lips meshed deeply into his, sealing their lips together, thrusting their tongues against each other, feeling moans pass off into each others' mouths. He groaned deeply in their liplock, his hands gripping her rear tightly. She pumped her hips even faster now, the tingling, near-euphoric sensations driving the female ever closer to her release, cued with her louder moans.

Their lips released each other in unison, letting out primal, delighted groans, both bodies shuddering their much-needed release. Her body climaxed her fluids on his length, while he shot a warm torrent of his seed inside her shuddering frame. Mikey's arms held her tightly, drawing her back into an embrace, pressing his lips gently on hers. Mitsuki kissed back, cuddling herself up to him, feeling leaky tears seep from her closed eyes.

Lips parted slowly, drawing short gasps from the lovers. "Mitsuki," His eyes saw the slight path of tears down her cheeks. "D-did I do something wrong?"

"No, Mikey." She said softly, nuzzling her head into his shoulder, an innocent smile curling up on her features. "I'm just so happy right now... I dreamt of this moment for so long..."

"Oh." He said, deciding to smooth out the lengthy strands of her azure hair. He looked down at her closed face cuddling up to him. "Listen, I'm sorry it took me this long to tell you how I felt."

She looked up at him, smiled again, and planted a kiss on his cheek. "I understand, you just had to work some things out." Her head laid down possessively on his chest again, wrapping her arms around him. "I love you, Mikey."

He nodded, and kissed the top of her sapphire head. "I love you too, Mitsuki."

Pulling the bedsheets from underneath their bodies, Mikey threw them over their bodies, drawing even more warmth to their beings. His ears picked up the soft breathing of his sleeping blue-haired angel, and he closed his eyes as well, hoping that tomorrow will be even better for the both of them.

"Okay guys," Guano had pointed out some changes in the script for the season finale of the LilyMu show. "I decided to look over some of the things that went wrong here."

"Whazzat?" Gonard, in his evil costume and colors, inquired curiously, about to eat a sandwich.

"Well, firstly, I had the tech guys look at that mechanical dragon, and they assured me that it wasn't going to explode prematurely on us. Secondly, special effects will be used up the wa-zoo here, especially for the big finish that just came to me last night!"

"Lemme guess..." Lily fumed. "It's going to involve that bonehead Mikey being the hero AGAIN?"

"Read it and see for yourself, 'princess'." Guano teased as he handed the diva the script. Ignoring her confuzzled expression, followed with a 'W-T-F is THIS?!', the little purple director looked around the set. "Hey, you guys seen Mikey anywhere? And Mitsuki for that matter?"

"Sorry we're late!"

All prepped in their stage outfits, Mikey looking heroic as usual, and Mitsuki all tough (but inwardly smiling inside), the both of them rushed to the director.

"Jeez, you guys certainly arrived late." Guano looked up at the both of them, noticing the both of them blushing out of embarrassment for being tardy, not noticing that the both of them were holding each other's hands.

"Yeah, sorry about that, Guano." Mitsuki rubbed her head, giggling lightly.

"We were just going over some 'personal' issues last night, I guess." Mikey nodded, smiling shyly over to the blue-haired girl.

"So much that you didn't come home last night, Mitsuki?!" Lily fumed, but then the realization snapped at her: the hand-holding, the dumb smiles on both of their faces, the two of them spending all night 'going over personal issues'. Her expression turned white with shock. "OH...EMM...GEE!!!!!"

Gonard smiled wide, figuring out what went on with the two of them. "About time you two got together! Congrats! I'm so happy!"

"Yeah, me too!" Guano chirped, but then got a scheming face. "In fact, this chemistry just gave me possible new material to work with for next season!"

"Oh who cares about next season?" Mikey shoved the topic aside. "Let's just finish this season now, and get on with our summer vacay! I'm thinking New York, L.A., and Ohio!"

"I'm down with that!" Mitsuki agreed.

"OKAY! Places on the set, everyone!" Guano roared in his director mode. He looked up at the still-shocked Lily, while the other characters got to their spots on the set. "Lily! Come on!"

"M...Mitsuki... she actually did it." She smiled lightly, huffing her shoulders. "I'm finally proud of her." Her diva mode came back on. "Now she's going to start talking non-stop about that bonehead American everyday now! What have I DONE?!"

"LILY!" Guano roared, startling her. "Move it!"

"Okay!"

And as if on cue, the actors got to their spots, props and scenery lined up perfectly, and the prop mechanical dragon was turned on by Yoshi the cameraman, roaring with a mechanical snap. All the actors hoped it wouldn't explode again, so they could get this part of the finale done, and on with their vacation.

And for Mikey and Mitsuki, something more.

"AND... ACTION!!!"
