first leap of faith ~ action

[While walking around campus today, you may come across one particularly handsome and well dressed...

...puppet.

It will just be sitting there. Chilling. Should you look away and back, however, it will suddenly be gone... only to be found sitting somewhere else nearby.

There's no one else around, is there?

Those with a quick eye may catch sight of a dark blur as the puppet moves. If you stick around long enough, the owner might even speak with you. Right now he's just testing the waters.]

That would require Gotham to be--

[Pauses. Waaaaaaaaaaait.]

Whatever gave you the idea Gotham City was a fictional place?

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

Why the motherfuck wouldn't it be?

[worthyheir]

Because I live there, and I've lived there for a while now.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

Aight. Fine.

You're from Gotham, then.

I'm from Houston.

[worthyheir]

Are you expecting me to pretend Houston is a fictional city now?

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

No, that would be stupid.

[worthyheir]

Most of this conversation has been stupid.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

True that.

Don't know why I motherfuckin' bother sometimes. My genius is so underappreciated.

[worthyheir]

[Rolls his eyes.]

Just keep your creepy puppet away from me, or I will cut it up.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sure.

He's got better places to be than near you anyway.

[worthyheir]

That's a poor insult.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

If I was tryin' to insult you, you would've been insulted.

That was just statin' facts.

[worthyheir]

[Rolls his eyes.] Whatever.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

You and me should hang, motherfucker.

I'll get you schoolfed proper.

[worthyheir]

I don't "hang" with people who can't speak proper English.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

Proper is relative.

Proper English now sure wasn't proper a hundred years ago. Another couple hundred and the way I talk now might be the most proper lingo around.

[worthyheir]

[Rolls his eyes.]

Then come bother me in a couple hundred years.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

[Dave laughs again.]

I'll make sure to bother you often, brother.

[worthyheir]

Come bother me and the destruction of your puppet will be the least of your troubles.

[knightofmirth.livejournal.com]

You break my heart, man.

[worthyheir]

Good.
