Heyyy, what's happenin'? You've reached the voicemail of one very fine-lookin' man. Wanna chat? Fanboy all over my mad skillz? Declare your undying love for me? You know what to do. [BEEEEP]
He used those words, too. [ Pretty much exactly. Which is weird, but she's not old enough to consider it 'awkward' yet. ] And also 'superhero'. But you're a better one, anyway.
[He laughs easily enough, but it's still weird when somebody calls him a hero. He hasn't really gotten used to the idea yet.]
Aww shucks, Clem. He's like a million times cooler than me. Got that cool armor that can shoot stuff, he's rich, and he's really snappy with the comebacks.
[He also doesn't have a face that makes children cry, so there's that.]
[ Clem wouldn't cry, Wade. She's seen lots worse, trust her on that one. ]
But... he needs to have the armor to be a hero, and you do it all by yourself. And my mom and dad had lots of money but that doesn't mean I'm a hero, too.
And also, his comebacks don't make sense sometimes. [ Because she's 8, but hey. ]
Hey, don't worry. I don't really understand some of what he says, either. You can usually tell the context, though. Snarky and condescending is prevalent in any language.
But, uh... thanks, Clem. It's not... well. I don't really get that a whole lot. Bein' called a hero, I mean.

Uh... don't let on that I said that, though. Somethin' tells me he wouldn't take too kindly to me spreading that around.

I dunno. For some reason, people don't seem to like me all that much.
[He didn't mean for that to sound as pathetic as it did.]
no subject
Well they're doody.
[ Yep, she said it. ]
no subject
Maybe they are doody, Clem. I don't really know. But still. It's nice to know somebody thinks I'm cool.
