[Action] Please don't rock my boat

[promisebreaker]

[ Peter is sitting cross-legged on the sand inland far enough that he's past the rising tide. He's got a stick in one hand and he's drawing something in the sand. He's very clearly focused on what he's drawing. Occasionally, he reaches up and blurs out what he's written with the heel of his hand then re-draws it.

If one stands over his shoulder and looks, his sand drawings are clearly plans for some kind of shelter. He's taking their mission seriously, not necessarily because it was dictated to them, but because he wants to be prepared. No one will be surprised that he was a boy scout when he was younger. ]

As a self professed nerd, don't underestimate the devious plottings of a six-year-old when Dodge Ball is involved.

[ Said teasingly, but yes. Nerd. Bullying was pretty much just a part of school. Thanks, Flash.]

[ aww. her smile softens, and then she bumps his shoulder lightly with hers ]

I think nerds are a seriously underrated demographic.

[ he chuckles and bumps her shoulder back lightly. ]

Someone's got to invent all the cool stuff.

[ he's pretty at peace with all the nerd stuff, even moreso now. ]

[antiapocalypse]

Definitely. Where would we even be without DVDs?

[promisebreaker]

And cell phones and remotes and televisions and mp3 players. I mean, we have a lot to thank the geeks and the nerds of the world for.

[antiapocalypse]

[ "MP3 players" works okay, but call them iPods and she's gonna stare at you blankly ]

I'm still waiting for my flying car, though.

Or. Well, any car, personally.

[ he would have had some explaining to do. ]

I kinda prefer a skateboard, but then I live in New York City.

[antiapocalypse]

[ dooon't worry it's totally coming ]

Sunnydale isn't exactly known for its subways. Or buses. Or taxis...

[promisebreaker]

[ yeah, it's inevitable. ]

Small town? [ Because that's the only reason he can imagine for not having public transit. ]

How was that?
