100_roadtrips drabble...
Title: Bodhisattva For A Day
Rated: G
Word Count: 100
Characters: Jiroushin, Kanzeon
"Bosatsu-sama...you...what?"
"I'm taking today off. Aren't I entitled to the occasional holiday?"
"Yes; but...Honorable One, who will provide guidance in your absence?"
"Be a dear--fill in for me, won't you?"
"I wouldn't presume to have achieved the necessary levels of enlightenment to advise--"
"Oh, honestly, Jiroushin--like it's *that* hard to spout mysterious platitudes with a beatific smile..."
"Er...yes, Bosatsu-sama."
"Come now--let's have your best 'This existence would bore me were it not so amusing' face..."
"...Like this?"
"...That's more 'My existence would be quite delightful were my boss not so impetuous'; but it'll do for one day..."
"Yes, Bosatsu-sama."
"Chin up, now, Jiroushin; you'll manage just fine."
"...As you say, Bosatsu-sama."

According to the counter in MS Word, that's actually 115 words. (scratches head) But every online counter I plug it into tells me it's 100. The punctuation accounts for seven words of the difference; but I'll be damned if I can figure out the other eight...(shrugs) Ah well. Though I suppose if I'm going to be using the online counters as my standard, I'd best go add four more words to the Goujun drabble.
Ooh, and I see exactly where I can put them, too...
