Guess you're on voicetest duty.

Look, do me a favor and don't make this weird. Okay? Here, why don't we try setting up some ground rules? Just to keep things simple. Like... Okay.

Rule #1: Don't be an asshole. Yeah?

Rule #2: Try and keep your fucking dad jokes to a minimum. I mean, not that we've known each other all that long, but sometimes? You're almost as bad as - Ugh, forget it.

Rule #3: When in doubt? See Rules #1 and #2.

There. Easy enough, right?

That's hard to picture. Someone as bad as Barry. [ Aw He likes your dad really! ]

[bluntweapons]

[Moira's eyes narrow a bit at that - You mustn't speak his name! - but she'll allow herself to relax a little around Claire's brother.]

Okay. Maybe not as bad? But I'm just being honest. This guy's puns are still pretty fucking terrible.

[big_badass_hero]

[ Chris laughs because no one's puns could be as bad as one of the kids he shares headspace with. Barry's tame compared to Grayson. ]

Okay some of them were pretty bad.

[phenotype]

Easy to remember, at least.

[Family issues: it's a thing, apparently.]

[bluntweapons]

[Y e p.]

I think so, yeah. Always good to get this sorta shit out of the way before anything goes down, just so everybody's on the same page.

[phenotype]

Heh. Less likely to have things go wrong that way.

[Finally, someone who kinda sorta gets it!]

[luciani]

You should give your mun a break. They're family! Family is the most important thing in the world!

[bluntweapons]

Family? [She snorts in disdain.] Yeah, uh. Maybe not the best way to describe it.

[Family's a bit of a touchy subject for her.]

I was thinking something more along the line of, like... partners, maybe? Or something like that. I dunno. Point being, you've gotta put your foot down and set some boundaries if you wanna be taken seriously.

[torsion]

If only your rules were as easy to follow as they are to reiterate. For some, anyway. Mine's unfortunately fond of puns.

[bluntweapons]

Oh no, yours too? Ugh, mine's just the same way and it's the absolute worst.

[torsion]

Yeah. Narrowly escaped being under jillted, even. Guess we can both be thankful that we evaded that kind of treatment.

[virologic]

Living proof that procreation can be such an unbelievable wasted effort and crushing disappointment.

[bluntweapons]

Whoa, whoa, what? What the hell did you just say?!

[virologic]

Despite all her other... shortcomings, at the very least, my child wasn't hearing-impaired.

[infectant]

Hm. Burton's... spawn.

Quaint.

[drunksniping]

Mmmmhmhmhm. And how is that working out for you, little rat?! I'm sure such a very particular set of regulations don't work with that atrociously inept partner of yours, do they?
