So, it's officially a year since I first signed on to this place. I kind of wish I could come up with something insightful to say, but considering people's reactions to that sort of stuff, maybe it's safer just to pass.

[Private to Tim]

How easy would it be to talk you into a snowball fight?

[Private to Shego]

What's your schedule look like for today, out of curiosity?

Sounds good. I'll see you there.

[Aaaand six minutes later? Hi gym, Shego's wandering in in her workout gear to do some quick stretches before Dick shows up. And to flaunt her abs at anyone who happens to be around. Shut up, they're perfect.]

[Dick may or may not have been antsily running around being a show off acrobat all day up until this point, so shows up in the gym and doesn't bother with stretching because he is a monster like that.]

Hey.

[Loser.]

Hey.

[She approaches the training mats, cracking her knuckles.]

Soooo, are you feeling especially delicate today, or can I use my powers?

[It's a sign of utmost respect for him that she's even bothering to garner an opinion on this.]

[Awww Shego. c: Dick is just grinning and following her to the mats.]

Powers would be great. There's a disappointing number of people on board who can keep up with us, so I figure we'd better take advantage of it when we can. [You are included in this we, as the other options are too often people who are like oh yeah I've taken a karate class. :V]

[Those people are also losers. She grins and takes stance, hands flaring up preemptively.]

I'll try not to throw you through anything too heavy.

[Shego you think everyone is a loser. He takes a stance of his own, still grinning.]

Aw, but I haven't broken ribs in like three months!

[Maybe if they stopped losing so much she'd change her mind okay. She makes the first move, keeping her powers dialed back - no need to be punching through concrete or melting steel right now.

It's depressing how unusual you're making that sound, you know that?

[batmanschmatman]

[Considering Dick is made of neither concrete or steel, he appreciates your discretion, sidesteps and smoothly lashes out at her.]

I know. And I'm exaggerating.

[She falls into the rhythm of the match - blocking, dodging and countering his blows between dealing out her own.]

Sure, I bet it's been at least three and a half.

[batmanschmatman]

I think it's actually been longer. [... It's probably bad that this is a I think versus an I know, right?]

[Little bit. :c She half-laughs as she moves.]

You think? Well hey, I take everything back.

Hey, I'm just glad I got out of the whole Halloween thing relatively unscathed.

Speak for yourself. I figured that being gnawed on by shambling drones was the kinda thing that only happens once in your life but no, apparently the zombie port just wasn't enough.

[batmanschmatman]

Why would you ever think a crazy thing like that?

Re: Spam

I know, I must have been wasted. No such thing as 'enough' suffering on the Barge.

Maybe this is all just an elaborate plan to get us to appreciate what we had back home more.
