Why do I need a sidekick?

[beatsfor]

Because it was suddenly a worthwhile activity.

[2804]

We both know if I say anyone else, you'd get jealous.

Like if I said Wanda was included? I'm sure you'd cause an earthquake somewhere.

[2804]

Because every super powerful being with infinite life needs someone to hang out with when I'm not around.

[2804]

So, they're good dreams?

[beatsfor]

So there is someone else on the list, you're just keeping it a secret.

[beatsfor]

You worried about me?

[beatsfor]

Back at the start, always. Since then... Mostly, yes.

[2804]

There is only one other person who would ever be on that personal a list for me.

[2804]

Yes. Shut up.

[2804]

Okay.

( well, that's to be expected considering all that's happened. )

That's good, then.

[beatsfor]

Right.

[Yeah, that's what she expected - although not for Agatha to say so.]

Well, look at that. I'm not jealous at all.

[beatsfor]

Aw, sweetheart.

Don't worry. I wouldn't let you have the goat back now, anyway.

[beatsfor]

Do you ever dream about me?

[2804]

I would hope you wouldn't be jealous of a rabbit and


Your own son.

( yes, there was a pause but it was just from the grief that always came with the memory and not with any trouble admitting the fact. )

[2804]

Good, thank you.

He's kind of cute. I think he'll suit you.

[2804]

Yes.

Of course I do. More than I probably should admit if I want to keep my cool and aloof reputation.

[beatsfor]

[there's a pause before the reply, too.]

No, never him.

[beatsfor]

Is that a compliment or an insult?

[Not that it matters. She likes when Agatha insults her, too, mostly.]

[beatsfor]

I've never believed you were aloof, and I'll always believe you're cool.

[2804]

Sorry, darling, you're always going to be second cutest. Maybe third if you're being particularly annoying.

[2804]

A compliment.

You're good with animals and he whines as much as you do.

[2804]

That's because you know me better than anyone else does.

[beatsfor]

In this specific case, I'm okay with being second. In a lot of ways.

But don't pretend you don't find me cute when I'm being particularly annoying.

[beatsfor]

Oh, good. I'm glad to learn the goat doesn't whine.
