Random excerpts from obscure series fics

Well, too many incomplete thoughts, I have, and some I don't really want to talk about, so a meme instead:
There's a meme that'd been floating around the middle of last month, I think, to post one sentence from each of your current work in progress. Well, I can't really resist. Since I think these stuff will never really see the light of day anyway, I might as well post excerpts (that make absolutely no sense without context). Not to whet appetite or anything, since one of these is from a fic in the fandom of one (seriously; I can't locate any English fic for it online, and not that I'm too sure Japanese ones exist either). The other one isn't exactly a fandom of one, but I'm not involved with it, so it kind of feels almost the same.
From the 'fandom of one' fic:
"Don't worry. I don't really care. I know only women listen to my songs."
"That's not true! I do, too!" Celen put her hands over her mouth (as if she realizes she has revealed something of herself she shouldn't).
---
"Anyway, go try it at your place. This place seems like it might be crawling with bugs of the human kind."
Jun looks a little disappointed. "I suppose you're right, Mama. Hopefully I won't die from it. Thank Dad for me, will you?"
"Sure. And you can take one of your reliable friends with you if you're afraid the medicine will kill you."
---
I can't really tell anymore when he actually can take care of things, or when he desperately needs help and simply putting on a mask saying otherwise.
---------------
From the 'I'm not involved with fandom' fic:
What, Mimura-kun? Do you want me to scream and rail at fate--at the genie here? He won't give me money no matter what I do, so I can't waste my time on him. And speaking of time, I'm late for my supermarket job!
Wait...Tamiko! You can't go like that.
---
Oooh. Your boyfriend wants to pay you. How insensitive! I'm glad you did slap him.
Thanks, but in the end, I come to work in a place like this, so maybe he's right in thinking that money can buy me.
Yamada-san? You don't sound like you're very angry at him.
---
Have...you really ever been on anyone's side besides yourself?
Such a skeptic. But my track record is not the best, I'll admit.
---
Yeah. Even if your house comes down around you tomorrow, you would still say 'I'm fine'.
But it WON'T, will it?
That was a joke.
Oh. Oh, I see.
