.059 - video musings

[captain_jtkirk]

You know, a year ago I thought it was pretty cool that I have my own action figure. But now I have a lot of them, of people that I know pretty well and I think it's actually... really creepy.

This is someone's toy and you know they never stop at the action figures. What if there's a board game or footie pajamas or something? Tiny little backpacks with my face on it.

And what if we all have weird crap like this out in the universe somewhere? Some kid could be playing the Prefect game where you try and sell everything you own. Or you can hit a little inflatable head with a frying pan. Or you could be like some people here and rip shit up that doesn't belong to you. [Does he mean Trip or Tim? WHO KNOWS YOU BOTH RUIN HIS THINGS :|]

Shit, what if there's costumes too?

He did thrive on attention, so maybe he was a little disappointed that she didn't even comment on it.

"I bet you have a boardgame too."

"Kimmy, maybe. I'd bet more that you have a video game. Imagine: tens of thousands of 13-year-old nerds, sitting around getting their kicks out of pretending to be you."

Said Shego, not realizing her position as a playable character in a video game franchise that sold over one million copies.

"You'd be in her boardgame. Arch nemesis and all that."

She was going to insist that Drakken was the archnemesis but that wasn't an argument that would hold much water so she just frowned for a moment.

"Well, not any more. Dr. D's probably replaced me by now."

"So what if he has."

[gotgreenmagic]

"I know. Who cares."

It's complicated, Kirk. It'd be like if you chose another mouthy green girl to be codependent BFFs with.

That wasn't a fair comparison, Jim totally cared more about her than Drakken did.

"You can keep your creepy action figure if you want."

She offered it back. "I'm good. You're obviously not gonna stop until you've got the entire population of the Barge hanging out on your desk."

"I think I'm moving them. I'm suddenly creeped out by the whole thing."

"Does that mean you'll be mad if I get you the footie pyjamas at port sometime?"

Re: Spam

[captain_jtkirk]

"I'll take them if you wear them at some point."

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

"Tempting, slick, really tempting. Think I'll get you the tiny backpack instead."

[captain_jtkirk]

"What would I even put in a tiny backpack?"

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

"I don't know. Your sense of shame?"

Re: Spam

[captain_jtkirk]

"So it'll just be an empty tiny backpack?"

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

She smirked at him. "Maybe you could squeeze your crippling shyness and modesty in there too."

[captain_jtkirk]

"I lost track of those years ago too."

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

"Spare me. You never had those things to begin with."

Re: Spam

[captain_jtkirk]

"Then you're just being mean with the tiny backpack. Get something useful like, slutty Starfleet underwear."

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

"Like you have any use for that either." She pulled a face. "I really hope nobody actually sells that."

[captain_jtkirk]

"I kind of do. It's me, there's need to be dirty stuff to balance the kid stuff."

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

"Egocentric much? It's not just you. You have - I dunno, the Russian kid to balance you out."

Re: Spam

[captain_jtkirk]

"Please. You watched that movie. It was all Kirk and then some other people."

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

"In that case they were all there to balance you out. Collectively. Unless Sulu's secretly a total ladies' man or something."

Re: Spam

[captain_jtkirk]

"There still needs to be dirty stuff."
