Redemption: What A Crock [Period 6, Monday]

[sideburnsofwar.livejournal.com]

After the class had assembled in the danger shop, Ares pointed to two lists of names. "I have, purely randomly of course, assigned you to two groups, the Wannabe Heroes, in search of redemption, and the Annoying Sidekicks, who will supposedly aid the Heroes on their quest."

"Now, today, you will choose your sidekick. Or more accurately, your sidekick will choose you, because they're annoying that way. Heroes, your job will be to try to dissuade your sidekick from following you around on your lonely quest for redemption, however actual physical force that would result in damage to your sidekick, while amusing to me, is not generally considered a good tactic. Sidekicks, you stick to your heroes like glue. Let nothing, not even physical force, stop you."

"Well, let's get started."

This shouldn't be too hard. He just needed to act like Cap or Iron Man.

Luke, looking a little sullen, walked over to Teddy. "Hooray," he said, shooting a glare towards Ares, "it is the fearsome Hulking, infiltrator of New York City parades. I'm with you."

When Teddy pictured someone wanting to be his sidekick, they were always a bit more... enthusiastic.

"No kid, it's much too dangerous for you," He deadpanned.

"I can handle danger," Luke whined whined. "I'll be there to hand you your weapons, stop you from turning to the dark side and mock you when you have to wear stupid disguises to infiltrate various headquarters."

Luke was pulling a little too much from how Artoo worked.

"I don't use weapons and never wear stupid disguises to infiltrate headquarters," Teddy pointed out, kinda wondering where those suggestions came from.

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"You should," Luke said, finding his sense of humor again. "It really adds something to the search for redemption thing."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

Teddy looked thoughtful and then pretended to take notes on that. "Funny costumes equals redemption, got it."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Funny costumes equals entertainment for the sidekick," Luke corrected.

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"Ah," Teddy replied, crossing out somethin funny costumes, no sidekicks."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

"But I'd be a great sidekick," Luke said. "I work for very reasonable wages and I've already been in swamps and deserts and trash compactors, so there's really nowhere too strange for me to follow you around in."

That's less sidekicky and more stalker, Luke, but points for effort.

"I didn't know sidekicks got paid..." Teddy said, wondering if maybe that was why they wanted to get rid of the Young Avengers.

He shook his head to clear that thought. "I don't think you'd want to hang out where I'm from."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"It's got to be better than Tatooine," Luke chirped.

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"Alien invasions, people coming back from the dead, weird powers, evil people constantly trying to kill me..." And yes, Teddy was trying to scare him off.

He was kinda naive.

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke stared at him. "Uh-huh...and?"

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Yeah. That worked so well. Plan B time.

"Are you a fan of boykissy?"

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke's eyes went much wider. "In the abstract?" he asked.

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Ah-ha! "No, in practice. Only people who can be my sidekicks are fans of boykissy."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke bit his lower lip. "I'm a fan. Huge fan. Really."

He was taking the assignment way seriously.

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy gave him a disbelieving look. "Are not!"

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"I thought I was Siegfried for many, many hours," Luke said. "I have seen the light."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"Really?" Teddy was trying very hard to keep a straight face now. He had listened to the radio when that happened, after all. "Fan of the glitter and everything?"

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Oh yeah," Luke said. "I just have to break it to my girlfriend."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"Another victim of the weirdness here, huh?"

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Poor Tori," Luke said with a smile. "But I cannot resist the pull of glitter. Or something."

Re: Teddy Altman- WACk [Week Two]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy nodded sadly. "Maybe when you graduate you'll be able to break the pull of the glitter."
