[Reid is sitting in the kitchen at the table. He's got a bowl of Count Chocala and a book. He's reading while eating the sugary cereal. He flips pages fast, eyes skimming over them only a second before he turns the page.]

[Hey. It's one of his citizens. Reading. And liking it.

Obviously there was something wrong with this picture.

America enters the kitchen, looking for burgers to eat. Reid looks busy, so he tries not to bother him. Still, though, he's curious as to what he's doing, and pointedly watches him.]

[It takes Reid a few minutes to care that America is watching him so closely. He finally looks up at him.]

Can I help you?

[idkmybfftony]

..Huh?

[He blinks at Reid.]

Oh, no, I was just watching you read. [He pops open a soda can and takes a swig.]

[yes_imagenius]

[That's weird but...]

Okay.

[He goes back to reading]

[idkmybfftony]

...Well, I mean, you read real fast.

[Sluuurp.]

And I don't see any pictures or anything.

[yes_imagenius]

No pictures.

[Reid watches him for a second before he answers, tucking his hair behind one ear]

Y-yes. I can read 20,000 words per minute.
