Work Text:

Louis (stoned out of his mind): And then he turned himself into a pickle! Funniest shit you've ever seen!

Haru: Yeah... that's great, sweetie, 'specially since this is like the hundredth time you've told that story. I told the dentist to go easy on the Novocaine, but he didn't listen... like always.

Louis: Yeah that's great, honeybun. So this guy turns himself into a pickle an--

(Haru groans in utter annoyance. Legoshi is shown hiding behind the bushes).

Legoshi (chipmunk tone): (Haru-chan... what's your relationship with Louis-senpai? How can you prefer him to me?).

Jack (also stoned out of his mind): Well, let's see... he's charming, suave, witty, clever, charismatic, totally not into eating feet...

Legoshi: It was a rhetorical question.

Jack (shrugs): Could've fooled me.

Legoshi: I told the doctor to go easy on the helium, but no, he had to let the new intern handle that leaky tank! Why doesn't anybody listen to me!?

(Bill walks on by).

Bill: Maybe it's 'coz you're a weirdo pervert Larry Stu with the personality of a thumbtack and the charisma of month-old eggplant.

Legoshi: Nobody asked you, Tony!

Bill: Whatever, Thumbelina. (Leaves).

Legoshi: (Note to self: buy a Death Note at the Back Alley Market ASAP).

Jack: Legoshi, buddy? Don't you think you're exaggerating a bit?

(Legoshi keeps quiet for all of ten seconds).

Legoshi: Rhetorical?

Jack: Rhetorical.

Louis (crying): And then Father took us to the dollar store next door and made us play "Pin the Glasses on the C.E.O.," and...

Haru (rolls her eyes): Rex dammit...

Legoshi: Huh... Senpai's nuttier than a fruit loop. Who knew?

Louis (solemn): Actually, the correct term is "fruitier than a fruit loop," seeing how "fruity" is commonly used as an antigay slur an--

Legoshi/Jack: NOBODY ASKED YOU! (They leave).

Louis: Get back here! I haven't explained my plans to host half-naked synchronized sand swimming/rugby/water polo on the next Olympics! (Goes after them).

Haru: Note to self: bring ear plugs next time you take someone to the dentist and/or to get their tonsils out. Your sanity will thank you for it. (Leaves).

Great story.
Poor Haru, what she has to deal with, and Louis constantly friends with benefits zone her lol.
Looks like Louis and Jack both are stoned from their oral surgery, and Legoshi having a chipmunk voice means helium right?
Bill left as he came in this story, insulting Legoshi lol.
Oh dear the death note would definitely be too rare to be a Black Market item lol.
Louis lecturing them on the terminology lol.
Poor Shishigumi, they hate water, but they might swim for Louis lol.
Oh dear God, Louis might get the 701 boys involved in his half-naked synchronized sand swimming/rugby/water polo on the next Olympics as well lol.
Thank you for your hard work and effort making this story.

  "Looks like Louis and Jack both are stoned from their oral surgery, and Legoshi having a chipmunk voice means helium right?"
  To be fair, the doctor let the new intern handle the tank, which happened to be leaking, so...
  "Bill left as he came in this story, insulting Legoshi lol."
  It's his whole reason of being, after all. Tiger Boy became irrelevant after Legoshi outgrew him, so to speak.
  "Poor Shishigumi, they hate water, but they might swim for Louis lol."
  I dunno; I like to think Manga!Agata (not to be confused with Anime!Agata) would be willing to give it a shot, maybe Dope, too. The older members from Sabu onwards, however... if they can put up with freaking Melon, they can put up with pretty much anything.
  Thanks again for your kind feedback. Always look forward to hearing from you.

    Oh, thanks for confirming that.
    At least in the Black Market Turf War quiz, it confirms that despite Bill's insults, he sees Legoshi as a friend and just likes teasing him lol.
    Right before they threw Legoshi into the ocean with cement shoes, the Shishigumi were literally talking about how drowning is a fate worse than death for them(felines), which is why they hate water and why they were going to subjugate Legoshi to that same fate because he is a wolf(a canine).
    Anime Agata? Manga Agata? Is there a difference?

      "Anime Agata? Manga Agata? Is there a difference?"
      Anime!Agata doesn't look anything like Manga!Agata, as he has the same generic gold fur as the other Shishigumi, i.e. he lacks the one physical distinction that makes MA stand out from the group (dark fur). Unlike MA, AA acts more like a youngblood Yakuza (he's more willing to prove himself/get his hands dirty, i.e. he's the first to punch Legoshi when he goes to the Black Market to "rescue" Louis after Gouhin gives him that haircut).
      I like MA a lot better, but the fans definitely flanderized him, and AA doesn't stick around long enough for us to get the gist of him. By "flanderized" I mean that people took a coupla of Agata's characteristics (him being the youngest Shishigumi/friendly/likeable compared to the rest) and exaggerated them to a fault, as in they tend to fawn/gush all over Freckle Boy, conveniently forgetting/ignoring he's a member of the Lion Yakuza, regularly cannibalizes on herbivores, and he'd kidnap/murder you in a heartbeat if he were ordered to.
      All those nasty bits tend to fall on the wayside of Agata's cuteness, babyface or whatever you like to call it. He and the other lion bois are certainly no Melon, but they're still pretty dangerous, as in you shouldn't associate with them or seek them out under any circumstances.

        I see, I just view Agata as the same person.
        When it comes to display of characteristics, it more has to do with how the anime cuts out a lot of stuff from the manga to fit the content into 12 episodes per season, so to me, it's more of lack of screen time, rather than writing of the character, because if Paru wrote Agata differently between Manga vs Anime, than there would definitely be a need for labels like Manga (insert character name) vs Anime (insert character name) lol.
        And to be fair, the Shishigumi are no doubts criminals involved in horrific crimes and murders, it's just that Louis's influence on them have soften them up a bit because they love him and with Louis they don't have to live up to Lion stereotypes "Kings of Beasts", so they are a bit more chill relax lol.
