It seemed like a good idea at the time... ]

Well, I'd wait until someone I don't like is sitting in it.

[nepotism]

Making enemies already?

[meta]

Why put off for tomorrow what you can kill today?

[nepotism]

Generally, if you killed them already, they won't be enemies anymore, so much as memories.

[ a beat ] Though, I guess the bad guys can get rezzed too, sometimes.

[meta]

[Knowledge (fourth wall): 11]

Especially if they're fan favorites.

[nepotism]

Not really sure our nemeses get a lot of fangirls around here.

[meta]

Really? Lame. It's the best reason to be a villain.

[nepotism]

And here I thought the appeal lay in the evil laughter. [ He examines a rack of guns, gesturing towards the ammo boxes below. ] We've got a variety of rounds too, if you want something specific. Incendiary, that kind of thing. Unless melee's more your style.

[meta]

On a hunch, I'd say I'm good with both. Incendiary, you say? [He goes over to admire the ammo.]

[nepotism]

Yeah, so don't go lighting up in here or anything. Might be a bad move.

[meta]

I'll take that under consideration. [BUT NO PROMISES.]

[nepotism]

So. You got any questions for me?

[meta]

Yeah. Why do hot dog buns come in 8-packs and hot dogs come in 10-packs? Makes no sense.

[nepotism]

[ he barks a laugh, and slaps him on the shoulder ] C'mon. Let's try the range.

[meta]

[Deadpool nods cheerfully and then grabs some of the bigger guns. Then he starts singing in an off-key voice as he moves to follow Fred out to the range.] I like big guns and I can't deny...

[...though really, he still wants to know the answer to that hotdog question. It's weird.]

[nepotism]

[ AND HERE THEY ARE IN THE RANGE. Fred stands off to one side, folding his arms and gestures at the targets. ] Show us what you got, Tex.

[meta]

[BOY IT WOULD BE COOL IF I HAD AN ACTUAL CHARACTER SHEET FOR HIM seriously I'll get on that someday but for the purposes of today I'll be pretending his bonuses add up to 5 since that seems like a good number to add to things and that means ATK 12.]

[nepotism]

[ it's a stationary target, so... we'll say that hits, even if it's far from being a bullseye. fred's more interested in watching his technique. ] You handle it like a guy who knows his way around a gun, at least.

[meta]

Sweet. [He turns around and shoots again, getting a 19 this time which I'm assuming is a bull's eye. Maybe not one of the perfect dead center ones, but still pretty good.] The first one was just warm-up.

[nepotism]

Suppose you'll be wanting me to field certify you next or something.

[meta]

It'd make it a lot less illegal for me to carry it around. [Considering he'll... probably do it anyway...]

[nepotism]

Don't quote me on this, but I think my squire's getting arrested on my watch reflects poorly on my record.

[meta]

Or it'd paint you as a badass devil-may-care kinda guy who does what he wants.

[nepotism]

... Tempting.

[meta]

Either way, man. [He whips around and shoots one more time (atk 23) for another bull's eye.]
