“It’s the worst of all the foods the Jewish people invented.”

“Not the worst, that’s really mean. There’s worse food that all people create!”

“You’re welcome.” Wally chuckles as he looks at the applesauce then back to the kid. “I don’t know how they get the color that way, I’m guessing there is some food coloring involved. I’m sure there’s an organic version somewhere that doesn’t.”

“I hope so, everyone keeps telling me that it’s important to eat more organic food than inorganic even though GMO’s help feed more people but actually aren’t good for people- It’s a really confusing debate. I hope I can find one though, this stuff is seriously wonderful!”

   ‘ you’re welcome ! ‘   an immediate response of knee jerk manners / her smile just as reactionary.   however ; it faltered with a second inspection of the weapons. she reaches out gently. not wanting to immediately grab his hands,   but it kind of ends up like that.     ‘ oh gosh,    here, please let me help put them on for you at least –   i mean, you should disenfect them first. not that i’m saying that your hands are dirty, gosh! i’d never imply that but uh .  yeah. ‘ her smile now sheepish,   but her hands are still grasping onto the others.

He tried not to flinch when she grabbed his hands but it happened and he could only hold himself rigidly while she talked. He didn’t want to lash out, no. “You’re fine,” he said. “You’ve given me bandaids you don’t have to..” He hesitated for a second as he looked at the red crescents in his palms.  “You don’t have to help me.”

It was always interesting to hear how different his son views the world than he does. He never really considered all the various book types, especially when it comes to fun books compared to classic literature. They were just all well books to him. “You know that does make sense. I don’t think a lot of people enjoy the language in those older stories. Shakespeare was never my favorite.”

Brandt pursed his lips, “The thing about Shakespeare is you have to know how to read Shakespeare. All of his stuff in general is pretty poetic and follows a iambic pentameter. But once you get that it’s easy. I do prefer productions though, if good Shakespeare is done right it sounds like they’re speaking today’s English and not something from forever ago. But it is dated, I guess? I know a lot of people can’t read stuff from the 1700′s forward because English was just so different and dramatic. To me it’s like this eye to the past about how people were thinking and writing,” he leaned in a little once he saw the sign for the book sale and put his turn signal on. “However, Stephen King’s work is ass- I mean trash.”

“Takeout is, like, a lifesaver.” Dinah said. “Uh, I mean, sure? What type did you have in mind?” She paused for a moment before saying, “I’m, uh, Dinah, by the way.”

“Oh uh, I didn’t think about that. Chinese, since it’s your favorite?” He stopped then held his hand out to Dinah. “Forgot about introductions, sorry. I’m Brandt.”

“It can be at times. I mean take this instance it could have formed into what I wanted it to be but then it decided not to and do its own thing. I always thought other people’s abilities were cooler than mine. I mean I have two brothers and a dad who are really fast and a mom who is a badass fighter and has great archery skills. I’m sure what you can do is cool too“ Aqua said. She always felt compare to her family her thing wasn’t as impressive.

“Water is sort of like it’s own personality then? But yeah, I really understand how you feel. Everyone in my family had amazing control of their powers and abilities but then it kind of gets to me and it’s like.. rocky, I guess? I just don’t have near the control that they do. But they tell me that training makes you better, no matter what it is you’re trying to improve on.” Brandt always felt.. on the side in comparison to his family, for a number of reasons but definitely his lack of control was one of them. “I can guarantee that water is a lot more fun than what I do.”

[brxntjordan]

“True and hey it’s good to know you’re not part wicked witch or you could have just melted right now.“ Aqua replied with a laugh. She felt good not having gotten in trouble. “I don’t know how to really explain it because I don’t know much myself. I guess I just take the water particles in the air and just make something or at least attempt to make something in my case.” 

“Yeah, you’re pretty right about that,” he grinned and listened to her as she spoke, genuinely interested in what she was doing.  “Wow, that’s honestly really cool that you can do something like that. Everyone tells me water is a fickle thing.”

“That’s fucking disgusting,” Abe says reproachfully, taking a step back.

“Wow, such harsh feelings over applsauce,” Brandt says sarcastically, “Why?”

“You make a good point.” Luke admitted after giving the other’s words some thought. “Does your dad like vines? I think mine does or he’s just too nice and keeps letting show him vine compilation after compilation.”

He blinked a few times, “I actually don’t know if my dad likes vines. I just discovered them recently..” Maybe he would have to bring them up to see. He didn’t know how he’d just start a conversation about short internet comedy. “I’ll uh.. ask.”

“I have heard that Frankenstein is good, I know that one.” Hal hasn’t read that much, but he does know at least one thing. “Hey any book can be fun if you enjoy it.  What classifies something as a fun book?”

“It’s a good reflection for most things, answers all the questions on most English tests so it works. It’s also really enjoyable especially for it’s time.” Brandt made a face when his dad asked that question and he actually had to think about it. “Uh.. anything from about the mid 1990′s to 2010′s I would consider a more fanatical or fun book. It’s not classic literature, y’know? So it’s a fun book, most people can enjoy it,” he hesitated, “Well.. kids can enjoy it.”

“I dunno, like a quart or something. Applesauce is applesauce so it’s good no matter how big the jar is,” Brandt’s eyes widened at the whoosh of wind but it didn’t stop him from looking down at the jar in the speedster’s hand. “It’s so pink, how fun,” he took the jar and popped open the lid before taking an experimental taste with his tongue. “This is unreal..”

“You got me there, I like the way you think.” Wally always appreciates a good appetite since he could eat everything in a refrigerator in one sitting if he wanted to. He smiles at the reaction. “Yeah it’s pink, it tastes amazing.” He waits to see what the kid’s reaction would be, and it seems to be positive. “Good right?”

[brxntjordan]

“I.. thank you I think?” Brandt was just.. hungry most of the time. it was hard to tell, he also just really liked food. “I don’t get how it’s so good, and this color. Is there food coloring in it or is it just.. this way? It’s sweet. I like it.” He laughed.

“Sorry.” It was the first thing that came out of Aqua mouth after accidentally wetting the person in front of her. She didn’t mean for it to happen but in trying to practice creating a small orb of water, instead came out a spurt of water wetting the front of who was standing in front of her. “At least the weather is warm so you’ll be fresh for the rest of day now.“ Aqua said with a smile hoping to be let off the hook and not cause any trouble.

[brxntjordan]

Brandt jumped back when he was splashed with water, effectively holding his coffee away from him. For a moment he processed what happened then just smiled, shrugging his shoulders. “It’s fine. Water never hurt anybody except for the Wicked Witch of the West. Plus it’s hot outside... but how were you doing that? It looks cool.” 

[brxntjordan]

spvcegal‌:

“Uh, not to be, like, boring and predictable, but Chinese is, um, probably my favorite.”

“Hey that’s cool too, all takeout is good takeout because then you don’t have to cook it. Speaking of takeout, do you wanna go get some?” Yes, he was already hungry again. 

[brxntjordan]

wallacwest‌:

“How big was the jar? Now that’s the real question.” Wally answers with a grin, liking how excited they got. “I’ll have to bring you some hold on -” He runs away real quick, but he’s back before they could blink with some in hand. “Here, try some.”

“I dunno, like a quart or something. Applesauce is applesauce so it’s good no matter how big the jar is,” Brandt’s eyes widened at the whoosh of wind but it didn’t stop him from looking down at the jar in the speedster’s hand. “It’s so pink, how fun,” he took the jar and popped open the lid before taking an experimental taste with his tongue. “This is unreal..”

“I suppose we’ll learn what it’s about together.” Hal says, assuming that the book sale has it of course. Either way he’ll make sure that Brandt gets to read it even if that means ordering it online. “You like the classics then?” He asks, not that he knows what’s good or bad since he doesn’t read all that much.

“I like some classics, others are kind of bad and outdated. I don’t like Of Mice and Men.. but I like Frankenstein, and the Scarlet Pimpernel. The musical is also good but misses a little bit of the charm from reading it. But I also like fun books... sometimes.”

Luke laughed, “I wonder if someone will try to make yeet an official unit of measurement one day.” The idea was certainly amusing and who knew? Stranger things had happened. He quieted down to watch the younger one try. “Exactly like that!”

“If it becomes an official unit of measurement I feel like it’ll confine the yeet too much,” he shrugs his shoulders as he thinks about it. “The yeet is almost like a toss.. but less confined.” Brandt laughs, “I’m glad I did it! I’ll have to show my dad.”

‘that’s disgusting.’ yrsa grimaced in response. ‘clearly better than yours if that’s what your resorting to for entertainment.’

“I didn’t know eating was entertainment,” Brandt made a face in confusion. “Do you.. not like applesauce?”
