So today's Decoration Day. I heard they were calling it something different, now, but I forget what. And that's the thing about remembering, is that once you stop it's hard to even figure out the shape of what it is you forgot.

But- there's gotta be a parade or something, right? I think I better watch, at least. I'm prob'ly supposed to.

Want company? I do love me a good parade.

[ Oh-so-casual tone which is completely belied by the encryption. ]

Am I allowed to answer in really bad Spanish? ¡Yo quiero Taco Bell!

[deadthenred]

You want- Taco Bell? [You are a confusing person, Spider-man.]

[incywincyhero]

Well, now that you mention it ...

[deadthenred]

Actually, pal, I think you mentioned it.

[incywincyhero]

Tsk. Tough crowd today.

[deadthenred]

It's Decoration Day and you promised me a parade.

[incywincyhero]

All right, but I'm not buying your ice cream.

[deadthenred]

But I've never had any.

[incywincyhero]

Now you're just having me on. What about those soda fountain places, didn't they serve ice cream there?

[deadthenred]

Sure, but it was worth a shot.

You wouldn't believe what people'll believe through these things.

[incywincyhero]

What can I say? I have an insight into the human psyche. And family who told me lots of "back in my day when a soda cost a nickel" stories.

[deadthenred]

I told Tony Stark we hadn't invented condoms.

[incywincyhero]

You'd think Tony of all people would know better than that.

[deadthenred]

I also told him we hadn't invented oral sex.

[incywincyhero]

Okay, this conversation is now going in directions I'm not sure I want to follow.
