green drabbles

Ensemble – pre-series Schoolyard Rumor

“I don’t think it works like that,” Willow said dubiously.

“Sure it does. It’s a scientific fact,” Jesse argued.

“Exactly. Everyone knows it,” Xander said.

Willow eyed them both. “Scientific fact? Let’s see proof.”

“How can we, when you won’t try it?” Jesse winked at her.

”There is no way color makes a difference, you two.” Willow went back to eating her snack.

“We’ll get proof. We just need a delivery system,” Xander said, shaking the M&M’s out into his hand. He started separating them out by color.

“Green makes you horny, Willow. Trust us,” Jesse said.

Willow rolled her eyes.






Angel, Spike, Connor post series – Wearing of the green

Connor winced as he went to cut down the demon. “I can’t believe St. Paddy’s Day got ruined.”

“You’re just lucky we showed up,” Spike said.

“What I can’t believe is how drunk you are.” Angel eyed his son sourly.

“Hello, college student, a drinking holiday, Irish blood, what the hell are you expecting? A saint?” Connor rubbed his arm, setting his blade down.

“Get tagged, kid?” Spike asked.

Angel went over and examined Connor’s arm: no wounds, just a new tattooed arm band of stylized Celtic knotwork in green.

“Got something to say?” Connor asked.

“It’s kinda cool.” Angel smirked.

*dies* Green M&M's!!!!!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

surely i'm not the only one who remembers THAT rumor. Wonder if it's still going around the high schools

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Oh, I remember it. I'm sure that's why the Green M&M is female, too; and one of the commercials where she was benig "interviewed," she was asked, "C'mon, are those rumors really true?"

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i was surprised at the other person's M&M drabble when several people didn't know the legend and she looked it up and posted a link. I figured everyone knew that, especially because that commerical addressed it

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yeesh.

What are they teaching kids nowadays?

[masqthephlsphr.livejournal.com]

I have a clay novelty jar that I bought at an art festival once that says "green M&M's" on the side. That bit of folk wisdom is pretty common, I think.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i thought so too but several people i've run into since posting haven't

[mzzgoddessblue.livejournal.com]

I really like them! Love Angel's remark to connor 'bout the tattoo, and love the m&m's!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Hee! Loved both of them!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks very much

[scribesds.livejournal.com]

I loved these drabbles! And no, I haven't heard the rumours about green M&M’s. I obviously had a deficient childhood…

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. Maybe it's not a UK thing since someone else at open_on_sunday did the M&M thing and a lot of people hadn't heard it.

I grew up hearing how green M&M's make you horny.

[scribesds.livejournal.com]

Does it work??

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

not in the least except in the mind of teenaged boys maybe

[scribesds.livejournal.com]

Darn. Better cancel my order for a big box of green M&M’s then!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i know, so disappointing

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks.

[catvampcrazines.livejournal.com]

Hee, both of these were cute and amusing.
