Excerpt: Well, then, get off my foot. And you should probably have your head looked at or something."
"Yes, I'm sure they'd know just what to do about prophetic visions. Adjust my reception or something."
1. Field Of Flowers
"You are such a hopeless romantic, Clow."
"Thank you, Yuuko-chan. Would you take this flower as a show I appreciate your beauty?"
"Quit being all cheesy and ridiculous. Besides, there's a whole field of them out here."
"So you don't want it?"
"...I didn't say that, four-eyes."

2. Dance Dance Revolution
"It's a revolution!"
"... I'm sorry, what?"
"Ouch. I think things are coming through again. From Sakura's time. Though why they would consider ballroom dancing as a revolution... Ow!"
"Well, then, get off my foot. And you should probably have your head looked at or something."
"Yes, I'm sure they'd know just what to do about prophetic visions. Adjust my reception or something."
"Reception of what?"
"I explained television to you, didn't I? The magic picture box?"
"Just shut up and dance."
*
3. Strawberries
"No fair, I want them now!"
"You'll appreciate them much more if you wait until I make the tart."
"But--"
"Yuuko-chan, trust me. This is the best way to serve strawberries. Except with cream. By a naked woman. I might consider eating them raw for that."
"If that's a hint, I'm not taking it."

4. Sweat Out The Fever
"It's so damn hot."
"You've got a fever, Yuuko-chan, of course it's hot."
"Make it better, you lousy magician."
"What do you think I am, a doctor?"
"Well, the way that you brag about your skills..."
"... I'll just make you some soup."
"I hate soup."
"Do you want to feel better or not?"
"You could fan me for a while..."
"...I'll be right back with that soup."
*
5. Ambition
"The problem is that you have too much ambition, you four-eyed bastard."
"Save the argument for when we're out of the dragon's range."
"I mean, what in the world made you think that he wouldn't wake up when we came in there?"
"I figured I'd think of something."
"What's your genius plan now?"
"Just run faster!"
*
6. Dragon Tattoo
"You have a tattoo?"
"I was in Sing-Sing for a while. It's a tradition to get tattoos there. It looks like that stupid dragon that almost killed us last week."
"What are you going to do when you're old and have a wrinkly old dragon tattoo all over your back?"
"Um... not get old, I suppose."
"Oh, right."
*
7. To Save A Soul
"In the name of all that is holy, please stop singing that song!"
"But it's catchy."
"But nothing. If you don't want that pointy staff shoved somewhere uncomfortable, you should stop singing right now."
"You're no fun when you have a hangover."
"You're no fun when I have a hangover either."
*
8. Past Mistakes
"Clow, I don't think that's a good idea."
"Nonsense, Kero, she'll love it."
"Not for your anniversary, Clow."
"What woman wouldn't appreciate this fine piece of machinery?"
"A toaster isn't a good gift in any dimension."
"But they haven't even been invented here! It will be a novelty."
"No electrical outlets, Clow, remember?"
"... Oh. Crap. What would you suggest, Cerberus?"
"Flowers. And lots of groveling. And don't under any circumstances mention the toaster."
*
9. Courageous
"Holy crap, what did you do to her?"
"Clow, what happened?"
"Ow. Ow. Oh, don't touch my side there. Ouch. I didn't do anything."
"Really. Cerberus, go find the medical supplies, would you? I think we're going to need plenty of alcohol."
"That's a great idea, Yue."
"To pour on your wounds, Clow. Now, what did you do to Ichihara-san?"
"We just had a bit of an argument-- owowow, that stings like the devil-- about my death."
"Really?"
"Apparently-- stop it with the alcohol already, Yue, just let me get infected-- I'm not allowed to die."
"That might put a crimp in your plans, Clow."
"It certainly put few dents in her frying pan. But overall I think it went well."
"..."

10. Sensuality
"Clow, won't you come to bed?"
"Hmm, let me finish this last thing... almost done..."
"You've been mumbling at that one spell for an hour. I don't think it's going to work. Come to bed."
"But I... no, that parameter won't work for this object... um, I need to finish this before... what are you doing?"
"Nothing. Nothing at all."
"Oh my. Oh dear. Okay, I'll finish it tomorrow."
"I knew you'd feel things my way eventually."
"You are a horrible, wonderful succubus, you know that? --Oh my God. Do that again."
