IC Prospective: Timon (fifth year)

[metaphoricalhorizons]

Character: Timon Berkowitz
Mun: Takato
Plot specific: N

Note to self: don't ever eat bugs again.

Even on a dare.

Or drunk.

There's nothing worse than feeling something wriggle down your throat and then belching it up later.

Just because it was fun when I was a kid doesn't mean it's fun now.

[Batty always posts voice, and he always toes the line between talking and shouting really, really closely.]

Why would you eat bugs? You're not an owl; bugs are nasty, nasty to eat if you're not an owl!

...Have I ever eaten a bug?

Voice

[metaphoricalhorizons]

...You question why I eat bugs and then you wonder if you've ever eaten any.

Classic Batty.

Voice

[injectified]

Classic me? Is that like, um... Original Batty? I didn't know I was being imitated. I definitely don't think I come in other flavors.

Voice

[metaphoricalhorizons]

No no no, I mean it's just like you to say something like that.

Voice

[injectified]

Oh! That makes more sense! I was thinking, you know, Coke. Stuff like that. Classic Coke. Secret formulas.

Voice

[metaphoricalhorizons]

I know what classic means. I just don't get what that has to do with the conversation here.

Voice

[injectified]

Oh. Yeah, well, that kind of thing can get a little... Jarbled. For me. Bad connection. Aheh.

So why did you eat bugs?

Voice

[metaphoricalhorizons]

...Right. I'll pretend I understood that.

Well...I don't really remember.

Re: Voice

[injectified]

Thank you!

Ohhh. Amnesia is not a good sign, my friend.

Voice

[metaphoricalhorizons]

No kidding. [There's a small sigh.] I think someone spiked the punch.

Voice

[injectified]

OH! That's loads better than actually having amnesia!

Oh. Should I stop shouting?

Voice

[metaphoricalhorizons]

Nah, the hangover's passed. You're good.

Voice

[injectified]

Great! Because I am not sure how long I could control this.

Voice

[metaphoricalhorizons]

Not long I'm guessing.

Permavoice!

[injectified]

That's probably true! But hey, there are worse things to be stuck with than a loud voice.

So, how's the good ol' sidekick doing?

[metaphoricalhorizons]

Just so long as you don't use Sonorus I think we're all good.

...I kind of upset him, but we're good now.

[injectified]

Ooph, that'd be a nightmare, huh?

...Oh yeah?

[metaphoricalhorizons]

Yeah.

[injectified]

Oooh, that doesn't tell me much.

Come on, what happened?

[metaphoricalhorizons]

Pumbaa kinda got upset when I said I wasn't going to eat bugs anymore.

...It's kind of our thing.

[injectified]

Your thing is eating bugs? Well, okay.

I'm sure you two will work it out though, if there's still any lingering issues. Nothing can really come between you two.

[metaphoricalhorizons]

When we were kids. I'm trying to grow out of it but he makes it so hard.

Thanks, Batty. That means a lot.

[injectified]

Hey, maybe you're just meant to be an owl like that.

You're welcome.

[metaphoricalhorizons]

You say the weirdest things sometimes, you know that?

But I guess they're just weird because you word things differently.

[injectified]

You're not the only one who tells me that, so I figure it's true.

But that could be it.
