So, you made an account. What are you gonna do now, actually send me somewhere or sit on your hands and make Russian prison jokes?

Yeah, I thought so.

[bests]

Really?

[kneecaptain]

Hey!

[bests]

You walked right into that one. I had to say it.

[kneecaptain]

You didn't say anythng.

[bests]

Technically, I did.

[kneecaptain]

Well, okay, you didn't say anything much.

[bests]

I didn't need to. You got my meaning.

[kneecaptain]

What d'you know about fun, anyway?

[bests]

I know plenty about it, contrary to popular belief.

[kneecaptain]

Uh-huh.

See, I can do it too.

[bests]

Never said you couldn't.

[kneecaptain]

If you'd said I couldn't, I'd've done it even faster.

[bests]

Ha! I knew there was a reason I liked you.

[kneecaptain]

C'mon, my good looks and winning ways weren't enough?

[bests]

Nah, you're not really my type when it comes to looks. And, you know, in general.

I also distinctly remember a lot of losing at first when the team with us on it first got together, so there go those supposed winning ways.

[kneecaptain]

Ouch.

[bests]

I love you, kid, but playing along with banter that involves good looks and winning ways skirts a little too close to flirting for me to be comfortable with it. Your girlfriend could probably kick my ass six ways from Sunday if she really wanted to.

[kneecaptain]

It's just an expression.

[Also don't call him kid.]

[bests]

[ nope he is forever kid in her mind ]

It was either get a little mean and explain the score, or call you handsome and shove everything into awkward territory. I don't know about you, but I like the former a lot more than the latter.

[kneecaptain]

[he's older than you, carol]

I'm not gonna dent that easy.

But jeez, I don't think you gotta be pining for her to call a lady beautiful. [That is just good manners.]

[bests]

[ technicality!! ]

Yeah, but you don't flirt with people as a regular thing, so it's different for you.

[kneecaptain]

And you do?

[bests]

I do. Not as much as I used to, but... [ shrug ] It's fun.

[kneecaptain]

Yeah, and you're the expert on fun. We established.

[bests]

Joking or not, it's really strange to hear you say that.
