[The camera's propped up straight on a table and is pointed at an Asian kid with short black hair and a blue cabbie hat. The kid looks a little young to be on this ship of fools (fourteen? fifteen? sixteen?), but is sitting up politely and has a notepad out and a pen like this is going to be an Important Professional Conversation.]Good afternoon ( Read more... )

Pull the other one, kid. Only thing you can consult on is bloody Tetris! You're what, twelve? I wouldn't consult with you to work my video recorder not that they exist any more, let alone detective work! Does your dad know you're here?

I'm afraid my father's been dead for ten years.

Apologies for Slater anyway, he has no compassion. Also, father ISSUES. thinkb4ublink September 10 2011, 22:46:03 UTC
What's your point? What, you think I'm going to go: 'oh, I'm so sorry! Clearly, this proves that you speak the truth!'

See, in my eyes, you got the opposite. Obviously, you got some bleedin' heart cop to 'consult' wif ya when he oughta just give ya the boot out the door. Listen, thing is mebbe when you're all grown up? Ya, I could see it, maybe. But you could swallow all the criminal psycho and Agatha Christie books in the entire world an' you still wouldn't be good enough! Know why?

Because catching scumbags takes bleedin' experience, don't it? An' a teeny bopper, no matter how invincible ya think ya are, or how 'ard your life's bin til now? Doesn't even begin. It doesn't even begin to bein' enough. Take it from someone who was your age just a few months ago, this is flippin' horrifyin' that it could be true in whatever sick universe you came from.

Your dad was alive, I'd hope he'd shut down this delusion of yours, cause mark my words, Naoto, it's gonna get you killed!

...

We have aliens, zombies, superheroes and robots but Miss Sherlock here is where you draw the line? Seriously?

You need to suspend your disbelief a little higher there, sport.

Yeah. I do. Anyone in that list that can't come up against anything bigger than a pickpocket, let alone this place, let me know.

I cannot even contend with logic that flawed. Here's a tip: other worlds are not your world, 'consulting detective' probably means not getting your hands dirty, and just because you were a helpless moron as a teenager doesn't mean everyone was.

Also, new chick? I'm not defending you, just insulting him, okay?

Since we're trading. Here's a tip: Fourteen? Everyone's a 'moron'. You, me, the geniuses? And yeah, I'm not going ta take tips on what a normal world is from sweetcorn's cautionary tale.

Oh look. A green joke. Original.

And also, no. We're not trading because a) I didn't say a word about 'normal' and b) you're just objectively wrong, but...mm, no, I can't even say it was a good try. D for effort. Try basing your argument on the evidence of the world around you next time, I hear it helps.
