Dudes. And Dudettes. And people that are other than those.

Haunted House next month. Loki and I are going to do it. Part of his learning what Halloween is about. Anyone wanna help? Gonna have to figure out a good site for it, but if you think you've got useful skills, definitely raise your voices.

Because this is gonna be the spoopiest thing EVER.

He seemed more interested in this one than Thanksgiving. Which makes sense. You know if we still worshiped Asgardians, he'd be the patron of the holiday.

Uh... Better than spookiest.

[wasinnocent]

Nobody is ever interested in Thanksgiving. I'm sure he'd take credit for it somehow. Can't say I know too much about modern Halloween but I'd been under the impression it was something humans made up pretty recently.

[She 100% believes it's just something he made up right now. ] Is that an actual word or one you just made up?

[doubled_speed]

I'm interested in Thanksgiving. All the food.

[Halloween is the best, and he's sorry you've missed it.]

Been around all my life. And Spoopy is a meme.

[wasinnocent]

Can't say I've ever really celebrated it. Or seen it celebrated. So I guess I don't know what kind of food I'm missing.

Is it going to help or hurt my image if I admit I don't know what a meme is?

[doubled_speed]

Thanksgiving is all the food really. Anything you want is probably appropriate. Or maybe the Kaplans just made a lot of shit so I'd be able to eat while making sure they had food for themselves.

I mean, it makes you old or boring. But it's okay, you can learn.

[wasinnocent]

Was that the entire point of the holiday? Food and nothing else?

Older than most of you, but definitely not boring. [ That's just rude. ]

[doubled_speed]

The point is supposed to be, like, gratitude or something. For life.

As for the not boring, prove it?

[Everyone is boring until proven otherwise.]

[wasinnocent]

I can see why you only care about the food aspect now.

How do you prove you're not boring to someone that's already assumed you're boring?

[doubled_speed]

I'm a speedster, I like the food aspect because my metabolism is insane.

[Well, if Tommy knew that, it would make life easier for her, wouldn't it? He grins to himself.]

If you're boring, you won't be able to come up with an answer. But if you're interesting, you can come up with something interesting. Seems fair.

[wasinnocent]

I knew a speedster back home, she was a pretty impressive warrior on top of the whole speed thing. What about you?

[ She laughs. ]

Fair enough. Not sure if you're old enough for the kind of not boring things I'd usually suggest.

[doubled_speed]

I make things explode. I phase through things. I hit things while going really fast.

[No one has ever taught him to actually fight. His training to be a living weapon was mostly about going fast and explosions.]

I'm eighteen and I have plenty of sex, lady, if that's what you're getting at.

[wasinnocent]

That doesn't say you know how to fight. What happens if you get caught in a situation where you can't rely on going fast?

Eighteen is insanely young for me. [This is...hard to believe....sorry Tommy. ] Plenty of sex huh?

[doubled_speed]

I can always go fast. It's what I do. And if I can't, I have my team to support me.

[Except he doesn't have his team right now so whatever.]

See, you'd old, if you're saying insanely young. And okay, so maybe less since I got here, but a guy whose fingers can do what mine can gets attention.

[wasinnocent]

Not always smart to just rely on other people.

Extremely old. [ Oh no. Now she's trying to not laugh. ] Can't argue with that. Everyone likes a man that knows what to do.

[doubled_speed]

Dude they mostly rely on me. Don't get things wrong, okay?

[Extremely old? Ouch. That sucks for her. For him, though? Nah, he'll keep moving on.]

I know. Which is why I'm always with company. Was. Whatever. Same difference. Anyway, any other ways to prove you're not boring?

[wasinnocent]

Oh, right of course. Sorry for getting confused. I hope you'll forgive me.

[Is it sarcasm? Maybe.]

I fought aliens with Sherlock Holmes and one of the three Musketeers once.

[doubled_speed]

They'd get shot up so much if I wasn't there to take the weapons from the bad guys. So don't knock it.

...

That story sounds SO fake. Still, it sounds cool.

[wasinnocent]

You don't have to convince me, I believe you.

It was pretty cool. Holmes and Watson were more cool than D'artagnan, but that's just because he had complications. You'd be surprised how fast Holmes was to accept that there were aliens. He claimed he'd deduced it before he saw them transform.

[doubled_speed]

Okay, even if this didn't happen, you definitely get cool points for how creative the story is. But if it's real? Fuck you're cool.

[wasinnocent]

[She laughs.] Why would anyone make up that specific of a story?

[doubled_speed]

Don't know. Why would anyone make up Lord of the Rings?

[Touche!]

[wasinnocent]

Boredom and a too much free time.

[doubled_speed]

And we have lots of boredom and free time here.

[wasinnocent]

Touche. But I've had an exciting enough life that I don't need to make things up.

[doubled_speed]

I mean, that's fair. But you're definitely cooler for what all you've said.
