[You are so freaking weird, Tommy.]

Seriously, how are we even related...

[dickmoves]

You know you want to. Come on, Mr Von Trapp. You can't pass up this opportunity.

[selfhelp]

[...Billy isn't sure he wants to know why Tommy even knows that name, let alone why it's relevant right now.]

Okay, ignoring the fact that this is the most ridiculous thing you've ever suggested, what makes you think we could actually fool anyone? We look and sound identical for the most part, but we act nothing alike.

[dickmoves]

Ahem.

[ Tommy straightens up, adjusting his posture a little. Clearing his throat a little dramatically, because this is going to be fun. ]

"Listen. If the ringbearers had flown Frodo to Mordor they would have been spotted immediately. Sauron would have known and they would have been shot down. Besides, if they could just fly there it wouldn't have been a good story. Just... stop talking and watch the movie."

[....

Must... resist...]

...Nerd.

[Goddammit.]

[dickmoves]

[ I SO TOTALLY JUST WON. ]

You just can't appreciate a good book.

[selfhelp]

[NO HE WILL NOT PLAY INTO YOUR GAME GODDAMMIT]

Movies are better. Uh. Book are boring and don't last long enough to...

[....]

...I can't say that with a straight face!

[dickmoves]

[ IMMEDIATELY BUSTS A GUT LAUGHING. ]

You are terrible at this! But we can work with it. I thought you were supposed to be innately good at acting or something.

[selfhelp]

[Oi. OI.]

That's such a stereotype, oh my god!

[dickmoves]

Acting is a superhero stereotype?

[selfhelp]

[Billy gives Tommy a long, searching look, just in case he's getting trolled.

....

....

....

Okay, fine, he'll bite.]

Nevermind. But no, not all supers are good at acting. If you want someone who could actually act this out, you should be asking Teddy...

[dickmoves]

Because it's a twin thing?

[selfhelp]

[Hrnnghhh. He feels like he's getting trumped here, but how often does Tommy, you know, want to hang out and do something brotherly? And while this is kind of extremely unorthodox as far as brotherly bonding goes, it's a step up from nothing.

Still weird. Really, really weird. But Tommy must be pretty bored and desperate to be suggesting it.

....

Hmmm.]

...Okay. If, if I agree to do this, then you owe me a favour. And I will call in that favour, which you can't argue with, at my own convenience. That's the deal.

[dickmoves]

Okay, that's not cryptic or unsettling at all.

[selfhelp]

What, you don't trust me?

[dickmoves]

Not particularly with mysterious favors, no.

[selfhelp]

Well, suit yourself. Offer's on the table.

[IT CAN'T BE ALL ABOUT YOU, SHEPHERD]

[dickmoves]

[ ..... ]

Okay. Fine. [ He's just bored and desperate enough to do it. ]

[selfhelp]

[....HOLY CRAP HE DID NOT THINK TOMMY WOULD ACTUALLY AGREE

Okay. Okay. ....Okay. He'll have to deal with that later.]

Mm... alright, then.

[This is 100% a mistake but whatever he'll take it.]

[dickmoves]

[ SUCKER I WIN. ]

[selfhelp]

[He's already thinking up potential ways to make you regret this, don't worry.]

So when do you want to do this? And, like... how? Think we could find stuff like hair dye and coloured contacts somewhere?

[Dye would be pretty easy, but the eyes...]

[dickmoves]

Are you or are you not a wizard.

[selfhelp]

Witch.

[Semantics.]

And yeah, I am, but you're not. How do you plan on faking magic?

[dickmoves]

I could pretend to teleport.

[selfhelp]

I'm not sure if you've noticed but my magic tends to get... sparkly. It's not exactly subtle.

[A lack of it would be a bit of a red flag, wouldn't it?]
