[She hasn't been in a real fight, hasn't punched anyone through a wall, hasn't even found someone annoying enough that she could justify killing yet. Someone might just be bored out of her mind, to the point that Tea is willing to even take suggestions from the rest of the population.]

So besides being used for labor and expected to save the world whenever they need us to, what the hell is there to do around here? Because I'm finding a whole lot of nothing and sitting around doing nothing is not something I enjoy. The gangs around here just aren't enough to keep me occupied. [She starts to think of ways she can make her own fun when she's bored--which some people may not approve of.]

The little trip under the sea at least was something to do--before it started to get old. Is someone trying to kill us with boredom?

If you can't make your own entertainments, you deserve the boredom. There's so much out there for someone of wit to discover.

[funkindofwicked]

[Oh look it's a little brat trying to talk like an adult. How annoying.] Sorry kid, but I'm not one of those "imaging you're a pirate" types. Now go pretend you're trapped in a room without air or something.

[bacondivination]

Mmm, no, you can try that yourself. Suffocating yourself may well improve your mood. If it does not, you doing so will still improve mine.

[funkindofwicked]

Too bad I don't pay attention to suggestions from brats with so little offer.

[bacondivination]

[ Eyeroll. ] You have fun with that.

[funkindofwicked]

[She cares oh so little.] Whatever. You run along now.

[She shuts down the conversation. She really does hate kids.]

If you're really bored, maybe you could try taking a nap.

[Is this guy for real?] Why the hell would I want to sleep during the day?

[twomeals]

Why not? If there's nothing better to do. [He usually doesn't get up 'til at least lunchtime, himself.]

Re: video;

[funkindofwicked]

I want something fun to do with my time, not waste it on sleep I don't even need. [She rolls her eyes.] Not much for getting things done, are you?

[twomeals]

Well, I don't usually have anything to get done, so...

[funkindofwicked]

So you're lazy. Or some rich kid with no responsibility. You'd think you'd have more to suggest that a "nap."

[twomeals]

I wouldn't say rich....oh, but you could around town, too! There's all sorts of things to see. Does that count as a suggestion?

[backinakidflash]

Seriously? It's a city. You're alive! Don't just sit around and do nothing - do something fun if you've got too much downtime. Go to a party. Throw a party. Go for a swim. Go window-shopping. Learn how to cook something new. Or how to play an instrument. Or knit. Or skateboard. Draw. Perfect your spitballs. Something.

[funkindofwicked]

[He rambles but Tea isn't so slow she can't keep up with most of it. And just because this brat gave up more suggestions than the last one, she'll respond.]

We just finished a party a week ago, another one this soon would be boring. Swimming gets old after an hour. Why the hell would I shop for things I'm not buying? And why would I want to learn how to do something I don't care about? Filling your time with waste just because you have time to fill is pretty pathetic. I'd rather do something worthwhile. [Not that what she finds worthwhile is likely to fit anything other people might consider that way.]

[backinakidflash]

[Bart shakes his head a little at this.]

But that is worthwhile stuff. Nobody can be on all the time. You need time to decompress. Those are hobbies. They're not waste. And you might like some of them. At least you won't be sitting around bored. Now that's a waste.

[funkindofwicked]

Sorry, the argument for the "worthwhile" nature of spitballs is lost on me. And I'm pretty sure I decompress just fine. Maybe I've had enough with decompressing.

[backinakidflash]

Hey, you never know what could happen next around here. What if it turns out Dumbass's one weakness is saliva?

[funkindofwicked]

I'm pretty sure the idiots who drool all over themselves while crying about how terrible he is would have already saved this world.

You don't do such a good job of promoting things, kid.

[Tea already deduced Clark and Kal were the same person back in dreaming, there isn't really a reason for Kal to fly out to Jor-El's suite and change into the super suit.

So it's Clark Tea gets.] You could just get a job? Or simply a hobby, I doubt there isn't a single thing on the turtle that doesn't catch your attention.

[funkindofwicked]

[Oh hello to you, too, Mister Superman.]

I have a job. They take up a few hours a day. And so far the hobbies around here are even more boring than having to work for money. [She's used to just having money handed to her to pay for things on a mission. Who needed to pay bills?] Unless you're willing to keep me occupied, you're not doing much to help my boredom.

Video;

[andaway]

I'm not here to entertain you, though. You said you were bored and I was simply trying to find a way to help you with that.

[He only barely refrains from asking her what the job is, it's none of his business.] What is it you would like to do anyway, Galatea?

Video;

[funkindofwicked]

Hm...punching things. Learning new ways to punch things. Flying. Traveling the world. Beating up my opponents. Watching action movies. You know, simple stuff. It's not like I asked for a harem to keep me amused.

[andaway]

[Knowing some of the hormoned teenager he's seen around he wouldn't have been surprised if she had managed to get a harem, but he refrains from saying so. She seems to have a healthy ego already, plus he doesn't want to give her any ideas.]

I have been trained in different fighting styles. I don't know how many you already know but we could still spar either way? A little training wouldn't hurt me either.

[funkindofwicked]

[Good thing, she has an age limit. Teenagers are too...excitable for her.]

Spar with you, huh? You so sure you could keep up with me?
