Duo eyes the team roster, and then the team. And Carlisle. And also Duck.

This is going to get interesting fast, isn't it?

"Hi Duo!"

Enthusiastic waving at 3:00!

"You're on this team too? That's great!"

maxwellsdemon02 September 10 2009, 03:56:04 UTC

"Guess so!"

He wiggles his fingers back at her, then adds in an undertone- "Just tell me you aren't playing because of crazy take-over-your-brain shards. Please. Make my day."

Duck turns bright red, and hastily covers Duo's mouth with her hand, looking around to see if anyone heard.

"This isn't - this isn't anything to do with that!" she hisses to him, in a stage whisper.

Then, forgetting to whisper: "Anyway they're for your heart, not your brain!"

maxwellsdemon02 September 10 2009, 04:08:38 UTC

He plucks her hand off his face, and kindly gives her arm back to her. "Juuuust making sure. In that case, I didn't know you liked baseball."

Carlisle, for his part, is staring at Duo now.

"Take over your brain shards?"

maxwellsdemon02 September 11 2009, 02:54:45 UTC

He coughs. "They're for your heart, not your brain?"

That'll totally distract him. Nice job, Duo. Apparently he's been picking up subtlety tips from Duck.

reallyaduck September 12 2009, 02:25:31 UTC

Duck jumps in with some frantic babbling. "Oh, he's not talking about anything, he's not talking about anything important I mean!"

Because if there is anyone who can smooth this over with poise and get Carlisle not to pick up on anything hinky, DUCK IS TOTALLY THE GIRL FOR THE JOB.

"He just meant, uh, he was making a weird joke! Cause I'm really bad at baseball so he thought it was funny I'd decide to play, hahahahahahaha, and you know Duo his sense of humor's really weird, so . . ."

maxwellsdemon02 September 12 2009, 02:37:43 UTC

Duo gives Duck a slightly betrayed look. Like she's one to talk about someone's sense of humor being weird.

reallyaduck September 12 2009, 02:46:59 UTC

Duck looks guilty. Also shifty. But then remembers that DUO BROUGHT IT ON HIMSELF BY TALKING ABOUT SECRET STUFF, OKAY, and does her best to harden her heart.

(Anyway it's true.)

Carlisle, meanwhile, starts to look for the nearest baseball equipment.

"Let's move on, shall we? Because neither of you are making any sense to me."

reallyaduck September 13 2009, 02:19:26 UTC

"Great!" says Duck, clearly relieved.

NO SENSE IS GOOD SENSE. Uh.
