[her fur gets all fluffed up and annoyed like she's embarrassed, and out of SPITE she bites his hat. just once. and then jumps down off his shoulder and transforms back into her girl form, standing in front of him.]
... Sure. [she has a little bit of a hard time calling him a friend just yet, but - yeah.]
she scrolls through his phone to get to the Amazoom app, and then jabs at the options.]
Yeah, it's these. So like, I bought two of the weapons and the Wonderball thing, just to see what would happen. They showed up pretty fast. I started with three? I don't know if you got more, I can't see how many you've got, but it should be at the top.
[she says, casually.] You're right though, there's no way I'd stick around for the whole limit. And is it like, tantrums about everything or a specific thing? And also, why, and also how.
You know that's like, more common than not, right?
[people thinking she's garbage!] Anyway, I told her I'd hurt people who deserved it, and she called people like that villains, and it was a whole thing.
That's stupid. [ both things, but he doesn't linger on it being common because people commonly agreeing on hating others is just, like, what happens sometimes, clearly. so the second part is important ] Guess that'd make me a villain for her too.
[she may have used it on purpose because she thinks it's funny to hear her mouth do the scott pilgrim thing]
Yeah. I figured you'd get it. [this is why he's blorbo.] The heroes are the knights and the Institute where I come from, and every single one of them --
[... there's a little hiccup of a pause here, like hesitation. and then, more fiercely:]
-- every single one of them would run a sword through anybody they thought was evil without a second thought.
... Yeah. [ there's something a little wry for a second before he smirks again ] "Wanted: dead or alive" is pretty much just a fancy way of saying the government gets to decide if they keep you locked up for the rest of your life or chop your head off in a public place if you get caught.
-- Right. Right, yeah, I do. [she shakes out her arms, shakes out her legs, and then looks up at him with a grin. yeah, yeah, that's the idea.] A car race I'm going to kick your @#!$ at.

Date: 2023-09-19 02:20 am (UTC)I'm going to try the Wonderball thing too. [ LITERALLY DOES IT IN FRONT OF HER IT'S FINE ] I think three must be standard, that's what I got. Neat.

Date: 2023-09-19 02:26 am (UTC)A cape? [ stop trying to get him to cover up his tits!!!! ] And I got a card of that little wolf mink.
[ i understand nimona doesn't know what a mink is ]

no subject
Date: 2023-09-19 02:33 am (UTC)[ no this isn't normal. anyway; ]
It lets me blend into the night for ten minutes? I guess? What's your star do?
no subject
Date: 2023-09-19 02:36 am (UTC)[anyway!] If I pin it to someone they throw a tantrum for an hour.
no subject
Date: 2023-09-19 02:41 am (UTC)[ she didn't know with mink either tho. anyway; ]
I guess that's kind of funny if you're not stuck with them the entire time they're throwing it. It gets way old after an hour.

no subject
Date: 2023-09-19 04:15 am (UTC)... Yeah, maybe. But here's the thing: villains are cooler than heroes. They can do whatever they want.
Because like, people see you as a bad guy? #$^% it, own it. They're never going to change their minds anyway, so why bother trying?
no subject
Date: 2023-09-19 04:33 am (UTC)You're talking to a pirate, Nimona. Preaching to the choir. [ his grin's a little sharp ] "Heroes" back home are the marines.
