Robin 003 Ⓡ video/action for Goldenrod/FOURTH WALL

[usedacrobatics]

This is your friendly neighborhood Boy Wonder speaking.

[Speaking, and standing dramatically atop Goldenrod's Radio Tower, with a Taillow fluttering behind him and another aerial Pokemon holding his 'gear offscreen.]

If anyone wants to be rescued, uh, now's the time.

[He reaches into his utility belt and removes a shiny red Birdarang.]

I've got my toys back.

So, you got your toys and acrobatics back then?

[He's got one hand balancing on the point of the radio tower when he calls back, so he'll just let that speak for itself.]

Yes, thank goodness. What about you?

[lifts his shield into view]

Same here. It's like I have a missing limb back.

[Robin giggles. A shield?]

So invulnerability... Not one of your powers, I take it?

Video

[starspangledavenger]

Definitely not. I'm just a super soldier, but this shield is as much a weapon as a tool of protection for me.

Re: Video

[usedacrobatics]

What do you do, club people over the head with it? Pancakes for great justice?

Video

[starspangledavenger]

I can serve up some eggs and sausage with that too if you like. [gives a flat but amused look]

Re: Video

[usedacrobatics]

So it doubles as a skillet as well as a griddle.

That's American ingenuity.

Re: Video

[starspangledavenger]

Yep, it's a true all American invention. I can serve up a side of Nazis too.

Re: Video

[staystraught]

No way. Stop yourself from getting served, maybe, but it's a shield. For parrying, not attacking.

[starspangledavenger]

It being a shield doesn't make it any less of a weapon if you know how to use it properly.

[Wonders if this kid is trying to provoke him into demonstrating]

Re: Video

[usedacrobatics]

[Obviously.]

You could say that about a spoon and it'd still be lame.

[starspangledavenger]

My shield is much better than a spoon.

[it might be working]

[usedacrobatics]

Can't eat ice cream with it, so I don't see how.

[He just giggles at how clever he is. Because it also sounds condescending.]
