Looking at entranceway

[watchthesuit]

Okay, so I've got good news and bad news. Good news, I like the username. Bad news, I hate the canon point. You do realise my dad will kick your arse after he kills Imhotep, don't you?

Oh, you do? Well, it's your funeral I guess.

[...]

Yeah, that does sound more fun. Can you read Ancient Egyptian??

[watchthesuit]

Yes. Mum taught me. Though Uncle Jonathan had to help with me a bit. I'm not quite fluent yet.

[chloroformedthejanitor]

[Holy crap this kid is smarter than she could ever hope to be. Wow, way to be a failure Annie, really.]

Oh...

Do you...live in Egypt?

[watchthesuit]

No. I live in London. Egypt's is where all the interesting things happen though.

[chloroformedthejanitor]

[Who even uses Ancient Egyptian in London? What the heck.]

Yeah, I bet. Um. How old are you?

[watchthesuit]

I'm eight. How old are you?

[All the tact of his father. Right there.]

[chloroformedthejanitor]

[It's okay, she's still in that phase where she can tell her age.]

Twenty-one. Why? How old do you think I am?

[watchthesuit]

I don't know. You asked me so I asked you. Isn't that how it works?

[chloroformedthejanitor]

Oh. Yeah, it is. You're right. That's fine, then.

Uh, so what's your favorite thing to do??

[watchthesuit]

[Oh, that gets a grin.]

Well, I've got great aim with my slingshot.

[chloroformedthejanitor]

[Ah, a true eight year old, then.

...Except Annie totally gets it, okay.]

Have you ever played paintball?

[watchthesuit]

I've never heard of it. Is it fun?

[chloroformedthejanitor]

Well, you run around with guns that shot balls of paint and shoot people with them.

It's pretty fun, if you're into that kind of thing.

[watchthesuit]

I'm not sure how happy my Mum and Dad would be if I had a gun. Dad can be lenient but I think that's going too far.

[But his face gives away how much he loves that idea.]

[chloroformedthejanitor]

[Just wait til you see guns in the 21st century, kiddo.]

Well, they're not real bullets. They don't even hurt! ....Much....

But really, mostly it's just fun!

[watchthesuit]

You shoot people with guns for fun? [Excuse the 1930s boy for not understanding that straight away, yes?]

[chloroformedthejanitor]

They're not real guns! They can't hurt you.

Besides, it's like, a war simulation, you know? It's about strategy and teamwork....[Don't judge her, okay, she's a product of her society!]

[watchthesuit]

I know all about teamwork. Me and Uncle Jonathan helped Dad defeat the Scorpion King.

[chloroformedthejanitor]

There's always more to learn.

Who's the Scorpion King?

[watchthesuit]

I'm sure there is.

A man who lived 5000 years ago. He sold his soul to Anubis to try and take over the world.
