Backdated to the 16th [audio for now]

[stop_flashtime]

[Have a much squeakier sounding Flash speaking] Clear, would you stop messing with that? No one needs to see this. Just want to hide until it's gone.

Fine. No one will be seeing it. I promise. No video.

You turned on the audio, didn't you?

Hey, you never said anything about being heard. I did exactly what I was asked to the letter. It's not like I called your linemates to come see.

Clear, start running, I'm going to kill you when I'm normal again.

[OOC-Italics are Flash, normal is ClearAgumon]

Shut up.

I'm going to go find a hole to hide in.

[fasternlightbot]

Oh c'mon, this wouldn't be so embarrassing if you didn't take it so seriously. It could even be fun.

[stop_flashtime]

Quick, Crash wants to carry me around.

[fasternlightbot]

Crash wants to carry me around at times too. And I'm not even tiny.

[stop_flashtime]

...

Shut up.

Do I need to tell them where you're hiding?

[fasternlightbot]

Let Crash have some fun. He's short and carrying people makes him feel better.

[stop_flashtime]

...

Will you guys keep him from killing me if I tell you?

[fasternlightbot]

I'm thinking about it. As much as I'd like him to make the choice, he's really stubborn and I think it'd be good for him to learn to lighten up.... Alright. I'll keep him from killing you.

[stop_flashtime]

You had better follow through. [Sending the location information now. He's not hiding terribly well.]

[fasternlightbot]

I will. [even if Flash's digimon is an annoying pain in the ass]

[Quick jogs to the location, not too fast because of the egg he's holding, but still faster than most. He spots Flash and grins.] There you are.

[stop_flashtime]

[Looking up at Quick] Go away, Quick.

[fasternlightbot]

[crouching down to Flash's level] Not gonna happen. Linemates have to stick together. [That's not the sticking together the phrase means, but he doesn't care.]

[stop_flashtime]

Quick, back off. I don't want to have to hurt you.

[Clear is snickering.]

[fasternlightbot]

[Quick looks to Clear disapprovingly] Shut it, Blocky. I said I wouldn't let him kill you, but I can still smack you over the head.

[with that warning, he grins back at Flash] And I don't want you to hurt me either. But you can't stay hidden for this whole thing. At least not here. What if you get low on energy? And do you really want your only company to be your digimon? He'll make more fun of you than anyone else.

[stop_flashtime]

No fun.

... Fine.

[fasternlightbot]

[He moves to place hand on the floor so Flash can climb on. It's better than being picked up against your will he figures.] Let's find a better place for you to stay. You can ride on my shoulder so I'm not technically carrying you.

[stop_flashtime]

[Climbing onto Quick's hand.] I think I can handle this...

[fasternlightbot]

[Waits until Flash is ready before carefully lifting him up to his shoulder] I can't keep you hidden from Crash, I hope you know. It's probably better if you just let him have his way and carry you around for a little bit. He could want worse. But it's your choice if you want to fight him over it. [Now where would be a good place for Flash to stay while like this...]

[stop_flashtime]

...

[resigned] It other words, it's inevitable. I might as well give him his laughs?

[fasternlightbot]

I doubt he'll laugh. Gush at how tiny you are? Most likely. But agreeing to what he wants gives you more options to negotiate than if you outright fight it. Like maybe you can get him to let you ride instead of carry you. Little things like that can make all the difference.

[stop_flashtime]

You know, you are right.

[fasternlightbot]

[grins like a loon] Surprising, isn't it?

[stop_flashtime]

Yes, it is.

[fasternlightbot]

I guess I had to be right sooner or later~

Let's see. If I put you in the kitchen, you'll have food to last an eternity. No where to really sleep though. I could probably grab a pillow from somewhere, if you're okay with that.

[stop_flashtime]

Sounds like a plan. And Crash can fuss over me if he wants, for a little while.
