week 2, monday

[vigilantics]

[ GOOD MORNING

guess who got dragged to the petting zoo? damian. it was damian who got dragged to it. ]

Is it still a date if it's babysitting?

[bittybat]

[HE HATES THIS SO MUCH. He despises this specific task. Why would this be a task when he's TEN? Horrendous.]

I should hope so, otherwise it'd be pointless to babysit you for an hour.

[vigilantics]

Pet some goats, Damian.

[ it's said so flatly. ]

[bittybat]

Why pet goats when I can pet tigers, Brown?

[They are GOING TO PET TIGERS, especially baby tigers.

ALLOW HIM THIS ONE THING.]

[vigilantics]

You can pet both, Damian. There isn't a limit on petting.

[ but at least he is excited ]

[bittybat]

I will pet every animal.

[But first, yeah, he beeline straight for the deadliest creatures he can find.]

[vigilantics]

Uh huh...

[ she watches him go.... cute ]

[bittybat]

[This isn't the first or the last time he is going to immediately jump onto the fence to scale it.]

Why aren't you going on a date with your two idiot boyfriends?

[vigilantics]

[ she makes a face. ]

They're not my boyfriends.

[bittybat]

[Hm. He just looks at her once he jumps down.]

Hikage got his pants in a wad taking up for you. And you flirt with Belph more than you pay attention to trial.

[vigilantics]

I pay plenty of attention to trial. I do take this seriously, you know.

[ she frowns ]

And it's not like I asked Hikage to do that.

[ it. admittedly annoyed her but it's fine ]

[bittybat]

[It looks absolutely like he doesn't believe her as he squats to pet some of the cubs which waddle over.]

This still doesn't answer the question of why you aren't trying to go on a date with them.

[vigilantics]

Why would I?

[ she watches him pet.... ]

I'm happily single.

[bittybat]

[He throws her a Look, but continues giving the wild tiger babies some love. Yesss, who is a precious baby murder machine? YOU ARE!]

So if the two of them fulfilled this same task with someone else, and then began fancying the person they were with...?

[vigilantics]

Then I'd be perfectly happy for them.

[ she sniffs ]

How jealous do you think I am?

[ steph kicks years of jealousy issues under the rug ]

[bittybat]

[It's clear Damian believes this is the biggest lie he's ever heard told in his entire life. The question only gets her another look, very pointed.]

Fine.

[It sounds like a gremlin sort of "fine." Like he has some kind of future intent.]

[vigilantics]

[ ... she does not trust this. ]

Fine.

[ but she'll turn her attention to some baby animals, because she does not want to argue about her love life with damian. ]

[bittybat]

[No, please talk about your love life with Damian. He watches her for a few moments before ignoring her in favor of adorable baby animals.

It's a little while before he decides to speak.] Idiotic tasks aside, have you found out anything else about this place? [As if they are

not trying to be on a babysitting date. He can't just have a normal fucking outing.]

[vigilantics]

Nothing that would help us actually get out of here, no.

I'm mostly trying to get people's titles and powers.

[bittybat]

The fact people are so willing to tell someone else their ability is astounding and stupid. Especially after being warned.

[He makes a face, though it doesn't exactly seem like a condescending one? Amazingly? It's very "Bruce-That's-A-Terrible-Idea-Children."]

[vigilantics]

[ she just grins ]

Should I take that as a no about exchanging teams then?

[bittybat]

At least make an attempt to find a way to figure it out without me having to say it openly, Brown.

[He gives her a withered look.]

Such as: [to her, now] have you already used your power this week for the task?

[vigilantics]

I have not.

Mostly because I need to use it on someone who already knows what it is.

[bittybat]

[Hmm. He looks thoughtful.]

Your power has stipulations? Unlucky.

[vigilantics]

It's not that exactly. It's just... tricky, I guess, and I'm not entirely sure how it'll actually work out if I use it.

So it'll be overall easier if I used it on someone who knows, and then we can see how it went.
