On being canon updated at a, uh, really interesting time.

[crockblocking]

So, you pick now of all times to do this? Seriously? Anyone ever tell you that your timing sucks?

Because it really does.

I could always learn more of those for performances. Dad and I try to keep things as legitimate as we can when it comes to paying customers.

Not to mention, I do enjoy a challenge.


[And stop this bonding thing, too. She's supposed to be over you.]

[allthesenors]

You could say that I'm a fan of performances.

[Grins.] Oh yeah? Want to see one in action?

[Team bonding is critical! And he just wants to show her a magic trick. That's all. No other reason. Nope.]

[backwordscompatible]

Considering your flare for the dramatic, that's not surprising.

Sure. Show me what you've got, Boy Wonder.


[Of course not. What other reason could there possibly be?]

[allthesenors]

[Wiggles his fingers for a moment, before he reaches behind her ear and reveals a quarter.]

Tada. What do you think? Do I have enough magical moves to make it as a magician?

[A career in magic, in case this whole dynamic duo thing doesn't work out.]

[backwordscompatible]

[She laughs, and gives a slow clap in response]

Not bad, not bad.

All we need now is a pair of over-sized shoes and a red nose, and you'll be all set for children's parties.

[allthesenors]

Would you believe me if I told you I've worn stranger costumes while undercover?

[backwordscompatible]

[She thinks about this for all of half a second]

Why, yes. Yes, I would.

...but I'm afraid I'm still going to have to ask for details.

[allthesenors]

Once I was trailing a the son of a corrupt mobster, who is a huge fan of Star Wars, and there was a convention within driving distance.

[backwordscompatible]

Tell me you weren't Boba Fett

[allthesenors]

What if I tell you I was?

[backwordscompatible]

[A purposely melodramtic sigh]

And I had such high hopes for you, too.

[allthesenors]

Don't lose hope just yet, young padawan. I actually went as young Anakin and had an R2-D2 with me. I built it myself and just told people I made it using a vacuum, but it had some built in devices that I needed.

[backwordscompatible]

Anakin, huh?

I suppose that's slightly better. Even if that's still technically a Prequel character.

[allthesenors]

Am I detecting a Star Wars fan?

[backwordscompatible]

Let's just say I appreciate the classics.

[allthesenors]

Imagine if I had dressed up as Jar Jar Binks.

[backwordscompatible]

[The blankest face ever]

No, thank you. I'd really rather not.

[allthesenors]

Me either. Plus, the point of the mission was to infiltrate and gain his trust. If he had seen me as Jar Jar, he probably would have fanboy raged on me.

[backwordscompatible]

Hell hath no fury like a scorned Star Wars fan, huh?

[allthesenors]

Maybe, there are some other hardcore fans out there. What other classics are you into?

[backwordscompatible]

Oh, you know. The usual stuff.

The Godfather Trilogy. Maybe the occasional B-flick. Something Mike and the bots could really tear to shreds.

[allthesenors]

[Stop being awesome, Zatanna. It's not fair.]

No way, you're into MT3K too? Then again, it's not that surprising.

[backwordscompatible]

[She can't help it. Baby, she was born this way.]

A show all about making fun of bad movies in all the best ways? How could a girl resist?

[allthesenors]

[osnap.]

Superman has kryptonite and girls have guys and bots who troll?

[backwordscompatible]

It's my one true weakness.

Don't tell.
