[ So here's Jesse and Collette, grinning stupidly at the camera and looking like they've got a plan up their sleeves. Jesse's the first to speak, rubbing his hands together excitedly: ]

Okay, so like... I heard there's superheroes here. Like real, bona fide superheroes. Costumes and everything. And, like, where I come from, you know, we don’t really got superheroes except in stories. So we were thinking it'd be real cool...

[ Collette glances at Jesse, then to the camera. She blurts out something that surely will never ever cause immense embarrassment once she learns the extent of the super heroes she's been around (discounting Barnaby and Kotetsu, who are weird anyway): ]

... If we could meet a few of you in person, and maybe even get an autograph!

Unless it's not on your world or you drop out of school or you pay someone to do your math for you!

[nanite]

you can get paid to do math for other people?

[whatsupcroc]

Oh yeah. In fact, sometimes you can get paid well to do math for other people.

[nanite]

[ you are teaching him valuable things yes good ]

but math's so easy

[whatsupcroc]

So's swimming and people still drown! Easy for one person is another person's Mount Everest.

[nanite]

you talk like one of the motivational posters they hang up in the school cafeteria

[whatsupcroc]

Stole all my best lines right off them!

[nanite]

most of my friends just quote star wars

[whatsupcroc]

There's a few good Luke, I am your father moments out there still. And I don't think "These are not the droids you are looking for" will ever go out of style. Let alone talking like Yoda!

But clearly your friends haven't been surrounded by enough motivational posters when bored.

[nanite]

my friends have mostly not needed those. prep school tends to be all the motivation you need

[whatsupcroc]

I had no idea prep school was that motivating to be honest!

[nanite]

well if you're the right kind of person i guess

[whatsupcroc]

I kind of find the more high octane stuff motivating, studying's kind of a necessary evil or something like that.

[nanite]

high octane studying?

[whatsupcroc]

Sure, depending on what you're studying! Or practicing.

[nanite]

what did u study

[whatsupcroc]

Flying and the fine art of crocodile wrestling.

[nanite]

that doesn't sound like a school taught you that

[whatsupcroc]

Extra-curricular education's still education!
