"You know what your problem is?" Zoisite said, staring into his drink morosely.

Nephrite shrugged, staring up at the ceiling, which kept coming forward and retreating in a way that was positively flirtatious. "The fact that our queen is going to enjoy stripping the skin from my back with those talons if I don't get those sailor senshi?"

"Yes - no - I'm talking about a more immediate problem," Zoisite said with a frown, refusing to be distracted from his line of thought.

"Which would be?"

"Monologuing."

Nephrite squinted. The word was a bit too long at this time of the evening. "Mono... loguing?"

"You know - going on and on about how you're going to win and we're going to take over the world? I mean, I understand you want to savour your victory but it's usually better to do that after you've won." Zoisite picked up his glass and gulped the whisky down. His fragile appearance belied a liver which could outlast almost any alcoholic.

"If you're so good at this, you do it," Nephrite retorted. "You stand there and keep quiet."

Zoisite looked at him, his green eyes as cool and distant as the ocean on a summer's day. "If it was me going after them, I wouldn't let them see me until I was certain I could kill them. Then I'd gloat."

Nephrite snorted. He got up, steady on his feet despite the fifteen shots of whisky. "You're just the same as the rest of us. You won't be able to resist." He yawned. "You'll be there yammering away... like the rest of us." He vanished into the shadows, heading for his room.

Zoisite watched him go, then looked at Nephrite's glass. He shrugged, picked it up and drained the rest of Nephrite's whisky.

No sense in wasting good alcohol.

He starts monologuing! He starts this, like, prepared speech about how "feeble" I am compared to him, how "inevitable" my defeat is, how "the world will soon be his," yadda yadda yadda. Yammering! I mean, the guy has me on a platter and he won't shut up!

DISCLAIMER: I do not own these characters, they belong to Naoko Takeuchi. Neither do I own the little speech at the end, that belongs to Pixar. ;D
