I--

[ she glances down, like she is realizing she is not in her suit. and then nods slowly. ]

Yes. Pretend to be hip with the youth.

[ and she will walk over to them, clutching her phone. ]

Hey! Did you guys see a weird lizard? I saw a video on twitter.

[ they all start talking all at once about the lizard dog. amazing. ]

[axilium]

[somewhere behind steph, there is the sound of someone trying not to laugh, maybe.]

Wowzers. Don't suppose anyone snapped a photo?

[vigilantics]

[ she just mouths 'i hate you' but then turns her attention back to the teens when they, again, start talking excitedly

one of them holds out their phone



little foot is doing a wheelie one of their skateboards. ]

Ah.

[axilium]

[he smiles innocently! love you too, bestie.




he lets out a whistle.]

Wow. That's a very impressive lizard dog.

[vigilantics]

Uh huh. You should learn to do that.

[ a pause. ]

Or Hikage...

[ that would be really funny.

anyway. business. she will do some chatting to find out where this groovy guy ran off to. ]

[axilium]

Please, Steph, I'm allergic to strenuous effort.

[and yet here he is on this dino hunt...

sure hope that the dino didn't steal the skateboard while it was at it, though.]

[vigilantics]

I'm going to get you an epipen.

[ i hope it did

but the kids will point them in a direction, and steph will wave bye and start ushering them that way. onward. ]

[axilium]

[can't believe they'll end up having to chase a skateboard-riding dino down the line]

So, where to now?

[vigilantics]

They said that way... and that Little Foot seemed to enjoy the attention it was getting? So maybe large crowds are a good sign.

[ she sighs ]

Wonder if we can keep a baby dinosaur as a pet for a while.

[axilium]

[large crowds and a dino, however baby, sound like a recipe for disaster, so he cringes a bit.

but then he grins.]

Oh, let's do it. Hikage will freak out.

[vigilantics]

We'll have to come up with a name. It looked kind of like a Malcolm?

[ a pause ]

I mean, we can do Little Foot, which is still slightly stereotypical.

[axilium]

[mock gasp]

Names are important, Steph. It'll be bullied forever if we give it a stereotypical name.

[vigilantics]

Oh, what was I thinking? We wouldn't want our baby to be mocked at dinosaur school.

[ the horror. ]

Sanji?

[axilium]

I'm trying to decide if Sanji would be offended by that or honoured, and which one I'd find funnier.

[vigilantics]

He should definitely find it an honor. This is a very special privilege anyone could have.

[axilium]

Need I remind you that you were about to name it Little Foot?

[vigilantics]

Listen, Little Foot was a hero, and it's not his fault that the youth of today wouldn't appreciate it.

[axilium]

Was he now? Please explain how for the unenlightened.
