Sidekick Tryouts, just outside the dorms

Hello there, prospective do-gooders! I am Professor Tick, and my side needs kicking! Err, that is, I need a sidekick. I could always use a hand grading things and running my class, but that's what a TA is for. You'll be helping me with that and assisting me in my other work.

You'll be expected to help me on my patrols [OOC: Patrols are assumed to happen at all hours of the day. If Tick's not around, he's patrolling, coincidentally being in exactly the places where stuff isn't happening. Sidekick is not expected to join him on these patrols, but it would be nice if they scheduled his routes or something. Not that he'd follow that. He goes where Justice leads him.]. You'll get a snazzy costume courtesy of Professor Beeblebrox's class. You'll get a spiffy super name! And you may even get some extra perks if SCIENCE. WILL. JUST. WORK. WITH ME!!!

Anyway, the tryouts will consist of five tests. At the end of the day, a new sidekick will be chosen! Keen!

Good luck to everyone!

Test 1:

Answer the following:

Name:
Super-Name (Not necessary: my sidekick back in The City is named Arthur!):
Special Powers/Abilities (if any):
Battle Cry:
Are You Dedicated to Justice?:

I know, isn't it? Honestly, you can just look at people and they'll do what you ask. I barely ever have to threaten any more.

Just tell me that it was you in the security room the day the tape was being made and not some random airman. Because one, less embarrassing, and two, kind of hot.

Discount? You owe me a serious take of your profits! And I'm searching the room now.

Sheep innards, chickpeas, same difference?

It's because they've heard the stories.

Oddly enough yes, made $120 that day covering for Chankowitz.

You won't find anything. I know how to hide things better then you!

Hmm. Wonder how that happened.

Wow. I'll remember that day even more fondly now. And I didn't think that was possible. Hope you enjoyed the show.

Stupid black ops training. Not gonna stop me from looking, though.

I think Murray did it.

What's not to enjoy?

Look all you want, you won't find anything I don't want you to though. I hope.

He's not here. Let's blame him for everything.

You guys set me up, didn't you?

We'll just see, now won't we?

Exactly.

Me? Never! It was all Danny's idea, he started it

*Is not worried at all. Except for a little.

So glad we agree.

Liar. And you're all a bunch of pervs.

Which, of course, I adore.

I'm going to make you suffer, Jack. I haven't decided if you'll enjoy it or not.

OOC: What the heck thread are you mostly on tonight anyway? I just got back from belly dance lessons and I want to roleplay.

Am not! Honestly it was! Are you insulting me or complimenting me?

Never mind.

I...am not really sure how to respond to that.

[OOC: I'm not really sure yet, I'm still getting caught up from yesterday, Jack's probably gonna end up wandering over to Beka's Attic Post though, feel free to crash and make Jack's life hell.]

Are you trying to blame him to save your own neck? Besides, even if it was Daniel's idea, you participated enthusiastically.

Took you long enough to realize, didn't you?

Well, you'd better figure out how to respond to it one of these days before I decide to make you suffer out of subtext. Just so you know.

(OOC: Cool. Because snarking at Methos and Duncan can only go so far.)

I never said that I didn't, just that Danny started it.

Shut up.

That is just uncalled for.

[OOC: Yeah, I imagine you can only go so far before you run into that "I'm not supossed to know this" area.]

I'm just saying that even if he started it, you share some of the blame.

And here I thought it was fair warning. *wink*

(OOC: True. Spent some time looking at paperwork very intently and not listening to the Immortal issues discussion.

And, ah, did I just wander into areas in this conversation that perhaps I shouldn't have wandered into with Janet? Because I have no idea what you're up for as regards our characters' interactions. So let me know what I should or shouldn't hold back on.)

Fair enough.

So mean.

[OOC: See, that's what screws me up here, sometimes I don't remember until the last minute that I'm not suppossed to know whatever I just typed. It blows.

And no, you didn't wander into anything bad I just... didn't get the right tone of voice. I was trying to do that whole...thing. Kinda like Michell's from Full House's "How rude!" but it is incredibly hard to get across without any vocal range. It's hard to tell whether I'm getting it across right because in my head I know how I want it to sound.

Sorry about that. :)]

OOC: I'm about at the point as a player where I want to say, "Fuck it all with all the subtext, damn it. It's a smutty, slashy, ooc as all hell game and we're damn well having fun with it, so who cares what's subtext and what's text?"

Unfortunately, I think this might tick off some people.

Personally? Take whatever the hell you want from subtext as text for Janet. I don't care. Because, good God, if I could write vamp!porn between Dru and Angelus in this game, why the *hell* would I have a problem with Janet and Jack getting it on, given the magnitude of the chemistry between them on the series anyway?

Er, actually, I have written Jack/Janet/Sam, I just need to damn well finish the thing so I can post it on my RL LJ.

Anyway, no big deal. It's why I asked. Now that I know what you're doing, I'll how to interpret what you're saying.

~~Oh, and I just have to say: No wonder the rumors started about you guys! Good grief.~~

~~What's that supossed to mean?~~

Gosh, the two of you in the security room together? And watching Sam and I? Good God, your eyes must have been glazed over when you left the room. So what did you think I meant.

Not that I know if anything happened. Nor would I want to know. Unless you wanted to tell me.

Oh that. Heh. Tell you? Tell you what? I assure you that nothing at all happened. *Grins*

~~I know that look. It's the look you get when you're lying to me.~~

~~Not lieing. Stretching the truth maybe, but not lieing.~~

And yet it's still the same look you get every time you say something that I know not to believe. And so I don't believe you.

It shows a shocking lack of trust on my part, I know.

[OOC: If I'm going to keep getting a conversation between two people who aren't me in my inbox, I'm glad it's you two. You're funny people. :)]

(OOC: *snicker* Oh, thank you. We're hopeless.)

[OOC: Sorry about the spammage, glad we're funny though! If you want us to scoot somewhere else it's no problem though.]

[OOC: Did that sound like a complaint? Keep talking, dammit! Dance, monkeys, dance!

That is, of course, what I say when I'm trying to nonchalantly tell people that they can continue to spam my inbox all they want. I say it with monkey imagery.]

[OOC: It's all Janet-Mun I swear, when I get around her Jack grows fun.

Dude, my Mun lj is

clex_monkie89 so I know the whole monkey thing, and I applaud it.]
