I am actually pretty brilliant.

I heard you can ask the natives and they know the way through the rabbit hole.

Literally.

But Leo will come over here, right?

〈 which means ray can't tag along. not without putting his friends in danger again. 〉

I don't care what he does, he's harmless. He can go on a date with you again.

OK true, but there are really bad things over there, Len. You shouldn't go alone.

Don't exactly have my partner here, do I?

What are you even going to do once you arrive?

Take in the sights. Find something to steal. See why it'd be harder for us to cross than it is for them.

You should wear the ATOM when you go.

I'd rather wear your panties.

Boxer briefs!

But silk is so much smoother.

And not breathable. Also, I'm serious. What's the harm in going small?

[Ray might have just actually heard him laugh. Congratulations. Or not.]

With panties?

Lack of freedom, mostly.

I'm not discussing the size of my drawers with you.

Thankfully there's no reason to assume you're compensating.

Anyway. I'm in Wonderland, if I want to change size I eat a mushroom.

Compensating for what?

Will you just come over here, your inability to read tone is annoying me.

[ this is just the dumbest of things but yes fine ok tiny little ray in his stupid tiny little suit comes stepping out of his room a few moments later.

and so the ol' routine starts up again. ray grows big. ray starts taking his clothes off. ]

I'm just saying that the whole silk-satin thing is really overrated, jeez.

Leonard puts one leg down on the bed as he rolls to the side, the other still propped up. Draw him like one of your French girls indeed.

What I said:

Commando.

[ where leonard's all smooth lines and charm, ray is inelastic and heavy. there's no stealth to the way the suit clunks against the floor as he moves. the process is always the same: helmet, chest piece, greaves, etc. piece by piece to get reassembled and shrunken back down.

inflexible, ray scoffs. ]

And I assert: chafing.

[Leonard just smiles and finally sits up properly. Well. Properly for him, meaning that his ankle is draped over his thigh and he's leaning back against the wall in what should look like he's slouching. It does not.]

If I see your other self on the flip-side, I'm going to kill him. That's what you want.

[ mid-greave, ray stills for a moment at the thought. it should make him feel better, right? ]

It is, but...

[ he stands straight again, to place the armor to the side. but what? ]

I still don't think you going over there is a good idea. Not alone, not without-- backup of some kind.

[Leonard weighs his communicator in his hand and then suddenly flings it across the room at the mirror. Glass breaks and once more his mirror is broken. Nothing new around here.]

You think I'm actually safer when I hold your hand?

[ ray winces, and only barely holds in a curse. ]

Well, first: the buddy system is proven to work. [ and because he really might be a human-shaped golden retriever, ray thumps across the room to fetch the device. ] And second: don't you always work with a partner?

Nah. And even if I did, he ain't here.

[He watches Ray, pushing himself up a little.]

Careful you don't cut yourself.
