[perfectdistance]

Sure.

[Press X to doubt. He definitely doesn't sound convinced.

He'll start with the fries.]

[perfectpower]

[They're sweet potato fries, which are covered in cinnamon and sugar and are delicious. But they're definitely not a healthy vegetable.

Bradley takes a bite out of his sandwich, but then a funny look crosses his face as he suddenly stops chewing. He found the lettuce.]

[perfectdistance]

[Hehehe.]

What's the matter?

[perfectpower]

[He swallows the bite.

Then he lifts up the bun, pulls off the piece of lettuce, and holds it up.]

They're tryin' to poison me.

[perfectdistance]

You're not gonna die from a piece of lettuce.

[perfectpower]

[Tosses the lettuce at Nero.]

[perfectdistance]

[Dodges away, as the lettuce hits the water behind them.]

It wouldn't kill ya to have a balanced diet.

[perfectpower]

Now yer tryin' to kill me-

[His sentence cuts off as he suddenly looks to the water.

The reflection of Bradley is flailing while trying to shoo the floating lettuce away.]

[perfectdistance]

[His gaze is caught by the same thing Brad's is.]

... Huh? What's up with the water?

[perfectpower]

I...don't know.

[He's just watching now, as reflection!Brad starts to complain out loud.]

I want you, not yer discarded food!

[perfectdistance]

What the fuck.

[perfectpower]

What the fuck.

[The reflection-Bradley finally shoos the lettuce away, only for it to drift into reflection-Nero's face.]

[perfectdistance]

[The water Nero waves it away.

Real Nero squints into the water.]

Did you do something?

[perfectpower]

[Looks to Nero.

Looks to the water again.]

I think they're moving.

[perfectdistance]

They talked too. Did you cast something?

[perfectpower]

No, I didn't. And I'm guessin' you didn't either.

[perfectdistance]

'Course not, why would I bother?

[perfectpower]

So if it's not you and it's not me, then who did it? None of those bastards from home are here to fuck with us like that.

[Bradley's reflection laughs in response to that.]

If ya wanna find out, why don't ya lean right over and look for yourself?

[perfectdistance]

[Immediately grabbing Bradley's sleeve like he's absolutely convinced that he would do it on an impulse.]

Don't.

C'mon, ain't you curious?

[perfectpower]

[That's probably a good idea, Bradley absolutely would have leaned in if he were by himself.]

...let's go then.

[The reflection is starting to get impatient though. It can't let Bradley leave, no matter what.]

Heh, yer just jealous. I'd win over Nero in a heartbeat, and ya wanna keep him away so he doesn't have the chance.

[perfectdistance]

[Nerves are beginning to overtake him, taking Bradley's hand in his and starting to pull them both away from the water.]

You don't always have to be such a coward.

[perfectpower]

[He's holding onto Nero's hand tightly as they walk. No way is he going to let some water call Nero a coward.

Meanwhile, the reflection of Bradley has a lot to say.]

Watch, he'll just fuck the sadness outta him instead of talking about anything. That's what they always do.

[It is taking all of his willpower to keep walking away right now.]

[perfectdistance]

[ Some water that looks exactly like Nero and that knows he's a coward. Is it really name calling? Both parties certainly know its true. ]

They're so predictable. It'd be much better for both of them if they fucked us.

[ WALKING. FASTER.

What the hell. ]

[perfectpower]

[Why are they being called out by WATER?

Bradley is practically powerwalking now, until they're both out of the room. Freedom from heckling.]

What the fuck was that?

[perfectdistance]

[Their reflections really did show what was inside.

They should really stop doing that.]

Hell if I know. How long do you think they're gonna be around?

[He can't avoid all water forever, he's a cook!]
