“Are you still thinking or… What’s happening?” ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀

the voice seemed familiar, but nope, it couldn’t be —— RIGHT?? jj turned around to take a look at the stranger, and her eyes widened. this could not be happening again. “spence– i thought you were–” back in the house?? she thought. that wasn’t the type of joke spencer would make ( only if they were both being silly. ) besides, she KNEW spencer from the tip of his toes, to the top of his head – and this wasn’t it. jj blinked, swallowing hard. whoever this was … it held a remarkable, if not EXACT familiarity with the girl’s boyfriend. “wh– who are you??” she asked him, furrowing her eyebrows.

even despite the fact that it was rather clear that she was speaking to wheatley, when she would begin her sentence with the name ‘spence’ he would glance back to see if she had actually been talking to someone behind himself. his eyebrows would knit together in confusion when seeing that it had in fact been himself that she’d been talking to, returning his sights back to her. despite his own blooming concern when hearing her tone, wheatley manages a smile. she must’ve mistaken him for someone else-- but, to be fair, all humans pretty much looked just about the same to him, too. a mix-up was an understandable mistake. “my name’s wheatley-- pleasure to meet you.”

spencer just kind of blinks at the other. sure, this happened to other people, but not him. he watched himself make the horrendously executed chemistry joke, and just arched a brow. henry told better jokes then that and he was eight. still, he gave the man (himself??) points for trying. “well, you tried, so that’s something.” he offered a smile, hands shoved in his pockets. the man’s eyes watched the other, curiously. once over the initial oddness of meeting someone who shared your face, it was kind of cool to meet a twin of yourself. “i have one.” he announced to the other, rocking a bit on his heels, “two chemists go into a bar. the first one says ‘i think i’ll have an H2O.“ the second one says ‘i think i’ll have an H2O, too’ — and he died.” he grins at the other.

wheatley hardly has any time to try and ramble out an apology or even be embarrassed with the fumbling over words before he would look up and see that the male in front of him looked oddly familiar, and yet he couldn’t quite place his finger on it. perhaps that was for the best, though, considering wheatley was just getting used to the concept of even being a human himself-- and realizing he had met someone who looked exactly like him to every last detail? that would’ve been a guaranteed meltdown. he doesn’t allow himself to ponder the other’s appearance for too long before listening with great focus to the other man’s joke, and sure enough, he breaks into a small fit of laughter at its conclusion. “that was a really good one, mate, seriously. brilliant.”

‘ ————- well it was certainly a good try. ‘

“i appreciate you saying so, really. i could try to make up for that disaster with another joke-- but it would probably go just about the same as that one just did so that actually might not be such a good idea, now that I’m thinking that over.”

“sure hope you didn’t hurt yourself thinking that hard.”

“my pride may have taken a few hits there, if I’m being completely honest, but physically, no.”

susan’s eyes light up with amusement as he rambles. growing up in the magical world meant that she didn’t quite get the joke but he was trying and she had to give him credit for that. “that wasn’t bad and now that you’ve tested the joke on me you’ll be able to tell it properly to the next person.”

he’s used to being met with irritation whenever he rambles too much without ever reaching his point or punchline, so he’s rather surprised when he looks up and finds that she actually looks rather entertained as opposed to being annoyed, a smile promptly finding his lips. "it was a bit of a train wreck, honestly, so sorry about that. but i appreciate your listening!”

“are you done yet?”

"it’d probably be for the best if i was considering how that just went, really. so yes.”

“i’d tell you a chemistry joke, but i know i wouldn’t get a response... er, actually... that’s... that didn’t make any sense, did it? not sure where i messed up on that one, if i’m being honest... oh! okay, hold on, i think i’ve got it now. alright, i’d tell you a chemistry joke, but i know i wouldn’t get a reply... no, no. that’s not it either... wait! aagh, obviously! it should’ve been ‘reaction’! like a chemical reaction’. that wasn’t…  that wasn’t how that joke was supposed  to go, yeah.”
