voicemail for Bruce; cowboy_newsie June 27 2011, 01:52:21 UTC
Hey, kid, it's Jack. Call me when you get a chance-- less your fingers can't reach the buttons or somethin'.

Well, if you do, and you aim to become this age, then when I'm done with it I can give it right back to you.

[ Griiiiin. ]

Then they won't be wasted.

[A flat look-- though, again, tinged with amusement.]

Bad enough we both got the same face. Like hell I'm makin' it so we's twins.

[ He reaches forward and pokes Jack in the nose. Hey, making use of his apparent age, right? ]

Why not?

I'm the older twin, by the way.

[He sticks out his tongue in reply.]

Not unless you was born before 1882 you ain't.

[ ... And he sticks his tongue out right back. ]

But I'm older in terms of years lived.

I dunno, you look eight to me.

[And he makes a face at him-- horrible, all bared teeth and crossed eyes.]

[ And Bruce steps back, scrunches his nose- and punches Jack very lightly on the arm. ]

Okay, that's just gross. You look demented.

[He laughs and reaches forward, shoving him lightly in return.]

It's a talent.

[ This is his face: :T ]

Uh huh. Right.

[He sneers for a moment at him before staring.]

Christ, you are weird to look at. Do it feel different in your head at all?

rookminor June 28 2011, 00:53:48 UTC
Well, no. It feels exactly the same except I suddenly only come up to a person's hip if I'm lucky, and I'm like a third of my usual size, and everyone seems to think it's okay to pinch my cheeks.

Oh and immaturity is entirely physical.

You could get away with a lotta stealin', you know. I remember bein' eight, that were a great age for stealin'.

[He lies back, closing his eyes.]

Or just trick people without bein' a pervert about it.

[ His face softens, and he pokes Jack in the nose again. ]

I don't need to steal. I just use my boyish good looks to get people to give me stuff.

You're one of the lucky few, by the way.

Hmm?

[ He picks up a shirt and spins around with it against his chest. ]

You gave me this, right?
