[Brandon looks, for all intents and purposes, bored as hell.]

You know what this place really needs?

[Bit of a pause. Purely for dramatic effect, you understand. He is an actor.]

Twitter.

And if you have to ask me what that is, you're seriously dead to me. Like. Don't even try.

[sharpes]

... I actually have no idea. Never thought about it.

[HMM.]

[controlledvariable]

No one's ever called you sappy pet names before? [come one Brandon apparently you've dated heaps of girls.]

[sharpes]

A couple people tried. Never stuck, I guess.

[Aka he never dated anyone long enough...]

[controlledvariable]

I'll do my best to come up with something cringe worthy. Just for you.

[AKA she is going to date him long enough for one to stick]

[sharpes]

Gee, Steph. You're a charmer.

[Total deadpan.]

[controlledvariable]

You love it. [don't even try to pretend otherwise]

[sharpes]

Maybe.

[He holds his fingers up, index and thumb a few centimetres apart to indicate just how much that is.]

[controlledvariable]

[Steph gives him a look, that distance better increase dramatically in the next few seconds or someone's metaphorically sleeping on the couch tonight.]

[sharpes]

[And he, like the jerk he is, sticks out his tongue.]

[controlledvariable]

You're so lucky you're cute. [It's the only reason she puts up with your shit, Brandon.

Well not really.

But you know.]

[sharpes]

And charming. And talented.

[Uh huh.]

[controlledvariable]

Don't forget modest.

[wait she means the opposite of that]

[sharpes]

It's very gracious of you to notice.

[Leeeeeeeer.]

[controlledvariable]

You're not exactly subtle about it.

[She's still talking about the exact opposite of modesty]

[sharpes]

Who needs subtle?

[K A N Y E S H R U G.]

[controlledvariable]

I've heard it can useful sometimes.

[lbr Steph is literally as subtle as a brick to the face]

[sharpes]

Uh huh.

['Prove it'.]

[controlledvariable]

Uh huh. [A little bit mocking, there, but she grins] I was subtle about having a crush on you, and look where it got us.

[N...o... she wasn't subtle at all.

Also "a crush". Steph are you twelve.]

[sharpes]

[oops that actually makes him laugh.]

Subtle like getting punched through a wall by a supervillain, you mean.

[controlledvariable]

[cue one kicked puppy expression, (mostly) faked]

Aw, come on. Was I really that obvious?

[sharpes]

Babe, you were so obvious.

[THEATRICAL EYE ROLL.]

[controlledvariable]

You started it.

[Stephanie Brown: actually a five year old]

[sharpes]

You wanna come over here and I'll finish it, too.

[EYEBROW WAGGLE.]

and then they made out forever the end

[controlledvariable]

There's an invitation if I ever heard one.

[And 'come over here' she does, wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him soundly.]
