[The camera shakes a bit as it turns on, revealing an extreme close-up of a blonde teenage girl bundled in a blanket. As she pulls back, a room is shown in a general state of disarray with clothes thrown over every surface.]

Just my luck I got stuck here before I grew any. I gotta find me some clothes, 'cause these?

[She holds up a tiny, child-sized pair of jeans with a raised eyebrow.]

Ain't exactly gonna cut it this time.








[ooc: Bobby is sixteen for the weekend! Have fun, City.]

My clothes don't fit either. Everything's too guyish.

[horseish]

Least you got a starting point. I don't reckon most've these'll go over my arm.

[newspider]

Yeah those don't look promising. Do you live with someone you could borrow from?

[horseish]

[Oh yeah, Bruce has shirts. Now only to surmise how much he's going to freak out when she leaves her room not being ten any more.]

Maybe. They won't exactly be the right size either but it's something.

[newspider]

Better than a blanket anyway.

[horseish]

As long as I can leave the house without losing any toes.

[newspider]

That's always good.

[horseish]

[One hand emerges from her sheet-bundle to give him a salute.]

In the flesh, yeah.

[candothat]

Your accent has gotten more difficult to understand.

[Why mention the obvious?]

If you need clothes, I think that I could borrow from Uhura or Sophie.

[horseish]

I reckon I got enough together sos I can go out and buy my own.

[Sorry, Chekov. Rural California in the 30s wasn't big on grammar.]

[candothat]

I only understood a part of that, but it sounds good.

[horseish]

I think I'm good.

Sorry, Jocelyn reckons I sound like a ranch hand these days. She's still sore I left school when I did.

[He's just going to stare for a minute, putting two and two together, and then make an extremely confused face.]

Bobby?

[horseish]

Got it in one, buddy.

Re: Video

[recognize_an_opportunity]

You look...

[Yeah, he's trying to think of a word here.]

Older.

[He fails.]

[horseish]

Last time you saw me I was ten. Looking older'n that don't take much doing.

Re: Video

[recognize_an_opportunity]

How old are you now?

[horseish]

Sixteen.

[Bruce would have skimmed on past if it weren't for one thing - the filter he set up to notify him of new posts from Bobby.]

Bobby?

[Oh, great.]

[horseish]

[These responses are getting a little repetitive.]

Yes, it's still me.

[hulkbusted]

So it's going to be one of those weekends. Great.

I can get you a set of sweats for now.

[horseish]

Thanks. I wasn't half little back then.

[hulkbusted]

Depression-era nutrition will do that. [He's already on the move, tucking his device in his pocket and switching to audio.]

Hungry?

[horseish]

[It's only '36 where she is, Depression-era nutrition is her life.]

God, yeah. I ate a good chunk of what was in the kitchen already.

[Oops?]
