I just thought of this... I guess cursed thought. Eli getting overwhelmed by brainrot when he gets to the Surface? Like is there for a few days and then it goes:
Trixie: "What's up my Sigma?"
Eli: "... What?"
30 seconds later:
Pronto cleaning near the photography room but then overhears:
"WHAT THE HELL IS SKIBIDI TOILEEEEEET!????????"
I'm honestly grateful I made sure that the Surface Bound AU take place at the same time as the original TV show, approx 2012. I cannot stand a lot of Gen Alpha brainrot terms ^^; (2012/Gen Z brainrot terms weren't much better, but least I could understand it XD)
So it'd be more along the lines of (and just cause I can, I will be posting a clip of Elliot Goes to School);
Trixie: "Total Bad Luck Brian mood." Eli: "Who is Brian and why does he have bad luck? Did he step on a Hexlet and get cursed?" Trixie: "No no! It's a meme! You... you guys don't have memes down there?" Eli: "Oh! A meme! No, we do have memes, just... not that." Trixie: "I have so much to teach you-" 30 seconds later: Pronto is cleaning near the photography room but then overhears: Eli: "MLG PRO SON! GET 360 NOSCOPED BRUH!" Trixie: "THAT'S THE SPIRIT ELI! TOTALLY!"
That said Elliot Goes to School clip (Elliot Goes to School: Field Trips)
