I13DT - Surprise Party

by **Janice Gilbertson** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:31 pm

"It's not a competition, Will."

"The point is, we like you."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:40 pm

"As long as I stay within your defined parameters. I know I make people uncomfortable when I use my powers; Cecil laid it out clear to me in the sauna."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:46 pm

"And Cecil's not your friend. Unlike the people here."

by **Kevin Gravis** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 2:47 pm

"Dude. And my mutation never make anyone uncomfortable? Or McManus? Or Steph? Or John? Or Victoria? I can keep going."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 3:00 pm

"Can anyone here honestly say Will makes them more uncomfortable than, oh, let's give an example...me?"

by **Byrna Cooper** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 8:25 pm

"Will, we don't find you uncomfortable."

Bear tried to avoid the lead in to Mira's insinuation.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 2:48 am

"Really?"

by **Kevin Gravis** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 9:38 am

"Really. We're still buds man."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 12:18 pm

"Even when I'm shifted?"

by **Janice Gilbertson** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 12:34 pm

"Aren't you, like, always shifted? I mean, in some way."

"Besides, I've talked to you when you were a telly just fine."

by **Laura Weston** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 12:55 pm

"We're siblings in this shifting thing, Will. I can't be uncomfortable with you."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 1:02 pm

Janice Gilbertson wrote:"Aren't you, like, always shifted? I mean, in some way."

"Besides, I've talked to you when you were a telly just fine."

"But then you started freaking out about the possible effects of electricity, and said you were going to go tell Sara..." Will said, blowing things out of proportion.

by **Janice Gilbertson** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 1:04 pm

"No, I joked that it was a good thing I didn't plug you in and cook you."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 3:23 pm

"..c'n survive being cooked," Will muttered, shooting a glance at Mira, who was conveniently looking elsewhere.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 3:28 pm

"And that's why it was a joke and not genuine concern."

by **Kevin Gravis** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 3:46 pm

"To be perfectly honest, if I had your powers I'd abuse the hell out of their pranking potential and annoy everyone. Nothing you've done even comes close to what I'd do. I'm in no position to judge whatever it is you think I am judging."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 3:53 pm

"I did that in high school," Will admitted. "If anyone had caught me..."

by **Kevin Gravis** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 3:59 pm

"See, that just makes me like you more," Kevin smirked.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 5:24 pm

"Did it here, too, when your mind got set back to teenager-mode," Mira pointed out. "No one disowned you then.

Well, almost noone."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 5:26 pm

"So glad to have you here to help." Sara says, doing an okay job not sounding openly sarcastic.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 5:46 pm

"My POINT is that his friends aren't going to get mad at him just because he shifts into things," Mira said, glancing down her nose at Sara.

by **Robin Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 6:05 pm

Meanwhile, with everybody distracted, Robin has waddled over to the wall where the advent calender full of delicious bits of chocolate is hanging and is sloooowly stretching out her arms along the wall to yank it down.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 6:25 pm

"Yeah, I'm sure you would all be thrilled if I snuck into the towels in the rec center again, or something."

by **Laura Weston** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 6:27 pm

"I would find that funny actually. A little on the high school boy level maybe, but still funny."

by **Janice Gilbertson** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 6:28 pm

"Besides, we've been pranking you as it is."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 6:29 pm

"And if people get upset they'd get just as upset at the invisible girl, Aisha, sneaking into the changing room to jump out at them with a 'Boo!'."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 6:55 pm

"So, if I were to...start hanging out more. As non-humanoid things....you wouldn't be upset?"

by **Byrna Cooper** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:02 pm

"Well, as long as we weren't oblivious to it sure?" Bear suggested.

by **Kevin Gravis** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:05 pm

"No reenacting scenes from The Thing either," Kevin joked.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:26 pm

"So, like...a schedule?"

by **Robin Stanton** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:29 pm

Meanwhile there's a sound of thin cardboard tearing, followed by the sound of cheap plastic crinkling.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:30 pm

"I think it's more about... making your presence known? Unless you're actively trying to prank someone, I guess." she adds with a smirk in Laura's and Janice's direction.

by **Kevin Gravis** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:34 pm

"Your daughter is stealing Christmas by the way," Kevin pointed out.

Candy narc.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:38 pm

"What?" Sara asks, looking around until she notices Robin stuffing her face with advent calender chocolate bits. "Oh for the love of... Robin!"

by **Robin Stanton** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:40 pm

Robin laughs and wobbles over to the couch, let's herself fall flat on her face and just kind of flattens out until she fits underneath the couch.

by **Janice Gilbertson** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 11:12 pm

"Okay, can I use this to point out something?"

"Robin has absolutely no hang-ups about shifting whenever she feels like it."

"And that's beautiful."

"I think it'd almost be a crime if that ever changed."

"Her dad's got to start loving himself a bit more for that to be possible, though."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 11:44 pm

"Robin's also too young to be self-conscious about these sorts of things..."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 11:44 pm

"And YOU'RE old enough to know better."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sun Jul 13, 2014 12:45 am

"Janice and Altamira are right. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a toddler to coax out from under the couch."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Jul 13, 2014 12:46 am

"Pow pow," Mira said, nodding at Janice.
