[she digs around in her pockets and presents this and this!]

Yep. The Amazoom. I got something funny from the Wonderball, so look, I think you should.

[ballies]

[ ooh. two people she hasn't see yet. ]

It looks like they're of us? [ gasp ] I can't believe we have merch?? That's really cool actually. Do I have an action figure? I'd better get an action figure.

[ come on come on come on ]

Let's go then, I want to get one!

[sharkgirl]

[help she laughs, tama is fun, hello]

Go go go! [ushers her off!! go!! she will come with, bouncing along.] I think you'd make a really #%$!ing excellent action figure - man, not this again.

[nyeh]

Anyway, if you find a card of me you're obligated to give it to me.

[ballies]

[ i love miss tama. ]

It got you too, huh? Jolyne was honking like a squeaking horn all over the place. [ LMAAAAO. clown. ] Imagine your action figure though, what would you want it to do?

[ hmmmm. she'll stick out her pinky finger. ]

I'll trade you for me, if I get you. Deal?

[sharkgirl]

Deal. [immediately. she will pinky finger swear with tama.

as for the action figure...] You know when they give action figures big buff beefy arms that move? Like you squeeze a button and they slam their fists down on something? That.

[ballies]

[ pinky swear!!! dammit i'm committed to collecting these now. ]

Like a 'hulk smash' kinda thing?

[ she mimes smacking her fists on thin air. ]

You could have little blocks with your figure for it to break.

[sharkgirl]

[i know i got these and was like oh no. i will never have tokens.]

Yeah, exactly. [she has no idea what the hulk is but she can gather from context clues. she copies tama in that motion, smacking her fists down.]

The little blocks are the penguins.

[ballies]

[ me rolling and getting good cards like ohhhhh free addiction. ]

It's been three days, you're that anti-penguin already?

[ she is rolling for her wonderball. wowee. ]

[sharkgirl]

Nah, I just think they're funny. They go dood no! when you stand on them and then don't do anything to fight back.

[she peers over tama's shoulder...]

I'm anti-tiger, though. [that is your team, nimona.]

[ballies]

If they stage a rebellion, they'll probably go after you first. Imagine a swarm of penguins running at you like "dood, dood, dood, not cool dood!!"

[ terrifying. ]


...? Did they do something?

[sharkgirl]

Okay but you say this like it's not the funnest thing I've ever heard. A full on battle against every penguin in here? $%#! yeah.

[as for the second question:] They said I couldn't beat them in a fight and also tried to mansplain my power to me, so they're dead to me.

[ballies]

There’d be a looot of “dood”ing.

[ oof. ]

That fast, huh? It’s not going to be an issue, being at odds with your team leader?

[sharkgirl]

[a shrug.]

I don't really care if my team wins or not. [her world can go fuck itself!] So I don't see why I have to be buddy buddy with some guy who sucks.

[ballies]

Isn't there a whole thing about saving our home worlds in the whole... winning team thing?

[sharkgirl]

Yeah. If you believe any of the stuff they're telling us.

[ballies]

It's not like we have much else to do but go along with it for now. Worst case scenario, it kills time. Best case scenario, we find out a little about how to go home.

[sharkgirl]

[she shrugs.]

Yeah, whatever. [flippantly!] Do you want to go home?

[ballies]

Yeah. I was doing something back home. I need to see it through.

[sharkgirl]

... What's your world like?

[ballies]

It... could be hard to explain, based on what you're used to. It's really built up and busy. A few people here have said they don't have the levels of technology we do -- computers, cellphones, vehicles, modern living everywhere.

[sharkgirl]

[eyebrow raise]

We have flying cars and digital billboards, if that's what you're worried about. I knew what a cellphone was before I got here. [what the fuck is nimona's canon: an essay]

[ballies]

Oh thank god. Trying to explain computers to people has been giving me a headache.

[sharkgirl]

[she cackles at that]

I know, Ace didn't know what cars were but he knew what a robot is. Like, what. [she grins.] We've got computers, too. And the internet.

[ballies]

He's from an era of pirates, they pretty much vanished hundreds of years ago!! He tried to make fun of the fact where I'm from we have so many landlocked places and he doesn't even have a fully completed world map!! They're still completing it!!

[ she likes ace. ]

Man. We're going to need a technology 101, I don't think Temenos knows what a phone is and he tried to ask me about magic so I know he's not from where I'm from. [ ....... ] Do you know what magic is? Outside of video games?

[ballies]

[ seriously though what the fuck ]
