voice test; canon is the new 52 shazam

[withoneword]

So, are you going to actually do something with me or did you just do this so I can hear you complain about me 24/7?

I get it already. I'm not as "good" or as "pure" as your other guy, I know. You're just repeating the same crap I've heard for years now. You ever think maybe I used to be that kid? Maybe back then I did think people were pure good. But I grew up. I had to. You wouldn't understand.

And by the way, you can stop avoiding saying "Shazam." Shazam. Shazam. Shazam. See? Nothing. I can say "Shazam" all I want.

You're not nearly as grown up as you think you are.

[withoneword]

You wanna bet?

[arach_nerd]

If that's some lead in to becoming Captain Marvel or Shazam or whatever? Becoming a teenager in an adult's body does not an adult make.

[withoneword]

Shazam. And whatever, there's plenty else about me that's more "grown up" than a kid my age should be. At the very least, I'm more grown up than a kid who says "holy moley" every five seconds.

The kid held down a job as a reporter and do really well at it. He's more mature than some people give him credit for.

[withoneword]

Yeah, yeah, I know. I have to hear rants about him almost every time I open my mouth, you know.

But. He was a lot luckier than I was, if that can even be said about the stuff we went through. He got away from it earlier than I did.

...Now I've seen everything.

Congratulations...?

[blue_suede_hero]

Sorry. Just never seen a version of Billy with this much attitude before.

[withoneword]

[He sighs.]

Sorry. It's just not all that fun to hear about how "wrong" you are as a person.

[blue_suede_hero]

I...

Yeah, okay. I guess that'd be pretty bad. Sorry.
