[chemwhiz]

[Good morning evening Route! It's time for everyone's favorite kind of post-the accidental video post. Today's accident is brought to you by the abbreviation lb! Also because Wally Jr. thinks it's his job to record whatever's going on if Wally isn't holding the Gear or if Wally hasn't blatantly told him not to

Dude. Dude. Dude.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME IT WAS THIS BAD okay we're going training. You're coming with me and you finally get to see what it's like to go through BAT TRAINING. RIGHT NOW. LET'S GO.

[Trainer mode to the extreme AND HE'S NOT TALKING ABOUT THE POKEMON KIND.]

[chemwhiz]

[He'd love to, except there's one more little problem...]

Yeah, dude, about that... [SUDDENLY EVERYTHING AROUND HIM LOOKS SO MUCH MORE INTERESTING.]

[hackintheaster]

................ [He knows Wally is avoiding talking about something. YOUR BRO KNOWS YOU TOO WELL, MAN. NO USE TRYING TO HIDE ANYTHING when your body language gives you away.]

What?

[chemwhiz]

I'm kind of... out of shape. Like. Really out of shape. You put me through Bat Training now... I'll probably die. [And he really doesn't want to admit this, but-] I can't even run a mile, dude.

[hackintheaster]

Well, we're going to get you back in shape. Slowly but surely. I'm not going to kill you, dude. Trust me.

But wait. Seriously? You didn't retain, like, any of your stamina? [And this has him more worried than anything. Cause what if coming here took away more than just superpowers? What if he's not as in shape as he used to be?]

[chemwhiz]

Yeah, that's the thing... [Hey, that tree looks interesting. Except he knows that won't work again-not that it really worked the first time, either. So he sighs, and looks back to Robin. Time to explain some things.]

Before I became a speedster, I didn't do a whole lot of, you know, physical activity. Sports were never really my thing, so, I mean, I was never really in shape to begin with. Now that I'm normal again, all that training as KF? Obsolete. Just being a speedster kind of instantly got me in shape and kept me that way, but yeah... Can't exactly run faster than a plane anymore, so... this happens.

[And he's staring (a little miserably) down at his flab again, poking it a little and groaning. This is what he gets for living on a diet consisting of mostly cheese puffs.]

[hackintheaster]

[And he can definitely see how uncomfortable his bro is and he smiles, putting his hand on his shoulder. He can be comforting, after he gets the making-fun-of out of his system.]

Dude, it's fine. You just need some work, that's all. Welcome to the land of the mere mortals. You don't think I was always this ripped, do you? [Ego boost +1] It'll take time and it won't be fun but I'll totally get you into shape, you just wait.

[chemwhiz]

[Okay, maybe Rob got him to laugh a little there. Good job, bro.] You mean baby acrobats aren't born in peak physical condition? Dude, I'm disappointed. You could have been a new genetic discovery.

But, uh... thanks. I mean, you're no Canary, but I guess a Robin's close enough. [Because I haven't actually made this pun yet.]

[hackintheaster]

I'm already a new genetic discovery. I mean really, who wouldn't want these genes?

[Not gonna lie, at first he takes that as a total compliment. And then when he realizes it's a pun, he just rolls his eyes, still smiling.] Wow dude. Just...really?

[chemwhiz]

[Broshove!!] Dude, shut up. I don't need you rubbing your perfect genes in my face when I'm having a total self-image crisis here. [Except he's kind of laughing while he says this, so he's at least acting like it's not really a big deal.

But now he actually laughs.] What, the Boy Wonder didn't see that one coming? It just... had to be done, man. How could I not?

[hackintheaster]

You always need me rubbing my perfect genes in your face. If I don't, you may lose sight of what true beauty is. [But even he has a hard time getting the words out because he's laughing so hard.]

Don't sell yourself too short. Even you can surprise me with the creativity of your puns. Just when I thought I heard them all.

[chemwhiz]

[He's still mostly laughing, but there's also some eye rolling action going on.] You are so full of it.

[Then he puts on one of his stupidest grins.] Guess that earns me the title of pundit, doesn't it?

[ and jsyk pundit = some sort of scholar. ]

[hackintheaster]

And you love it. If you didn't, you wouldn't keep me around. [ :D ]

You know what, Wally West. Yes. Yes it does. [And here's some eye rolling action right back at ya, coupled with laughter. Always laughter.]

[chemwhiz]

[More eye rolling and shaking his head.] Dude, whatever.

So how does it feel to be in the presence of a great scholar?

[hackintheaster]

To be perfectly honest, I'm a bit underwhelmed.

[chemwhiz]

Ouch. Way to bruise my ego, Rob.
