[ Another thump as Rex flops onto the bed besides César, who manages to say through his laughter. ]

How—How did you manage to guess you were half-Mexican correctly and not guess you were Catholic?

[ Rex lets out a huff, but there's a lot less annoyance in his voice when he speaks again and there's force behind the complaints. Because man, the other dude sounds like he really needs the laugh, and César's laughter is making something warm rise in his chest. ]

Because I craved tacos and burritos, not bland communion wafers and that weird grape wine! ... ... huh, I know what those taste like. Weird! And stop laughing!

[ Which elicits César to start laughing anew. There's shuffling movement and the sound of a pillow fwumping repeatedly against a body. It cuts breaks into César's laughter as he tries to move away. Unsuccessfully. ]

1/3 because Rex talks too fast

[ César doesn't say anything else, keeping right on laughing through the pillow continuing. Rex snorts with laughter at that thought. ]

Nah, it's more like I only realize I know about something after thinking about it. I was craving burritos one day and went to an authentic place and recognized everything on the menu and a lot of the decor and there was fútbol on the TV that I was super excited to watch, sooooooooo I was able to figure all that out. But I live on a military base, so César's home altar here was the first one I've run into.

[ Then, slightly defensively, but it's for show. ] But I knew I was Christian something because I get really into Christmas. Just like how I'm into anime and manga and deep sea exploration.

[ César pipes up, almost innocently, between calming laughter. ] Those are my fault, you know.

rexthebuilder: (COME AGAIN WHAT)
From: [personal profile] rexthebuilder
[ RECORD. SCRATCH. All thoughts cease. Rex sounds absolutely horrified. ] They're what?

pineapplesalmon: (a quick suggestion)
From: [personal profile] pineapplesalmon
[A choking laugh. Rex is still silent in horror as César explains.]

Japanese animation. Cartoons. Manga is Japanese comics. Some of it is for kids, but there's shows for teenagers and adults, too. They tend to have more serious plot lines, and use the freedom of animation to tell stories that'd have impossibly expensive special effects if they were live action.

That being said, there's a whole genre of live action shows with practical effects called Tokusatsu, or Toku for short. But they can only do so much. Usually several fake city blocks get destroyed. And then there's a sub-genre called sentai that involves a team of masked color-coded superheroes that fight monsters or aliens or some other sort of threats with martial arts, giant robots called mechas, and team attacks.

rexthebuilder: (eyes narrow)
From: [personal profile] rexthebuilder
[ Rex's tone turns suspicious... there's no reason to mention any of this, UNLESS. ] ... César, whyyyyyy do I know all of those terms? Why do I know exactly what you're talking about?

Date: 2024-12-24 03:30 am (UTC)
pineapplesalmon: (a quick suggestion)
From: [personal profile] pineapplesalmon
Precisely! And speaking of... [And then, César whispers something too quiet to hear in Rex's ear.]

Date: 2024-12-24 03:35 am (UTC)
rexthebuilder: (don't rub it in)
From: [personal profile] rexthebuilder
Mecha OC?! Dude, this is not the time to be telling me my builds' backstory! [César laughs.] I'm just glad ten-year-old me was cool instead of lame like you! Your soda pop can lab doesn't even have a name!

rexthebuilder: (baby brother mode activated)
From: [personal profile] rexthebuilder
[ Oh ho. Oh ho ho ho. Rex's mood immediately becomes jubilant. ] You're right! He's taken so long to name it that I get to name it now.

[ A laugh from César, who apparently isn't going to stop him, and Rex sticks out his tongue audibly before continuing. ] Those are the rules! Okay, so. It's gotta be a name that's mostly lame but vaguely cool.

rexthebuilder: (hmm trying to look smart)
From: [personal profile] rexthebuilder
Yeah, dogs are way cuter. And it's a vehicle that can fly in space so. I dunno, USS Famous Science Person? This is going to take some thought.

[He sounds very happy to have this task, though.]

pineapplesalmon: (a scientist's humor)
From: [personal profile] pineapplesalmon
You can think?

[The pillow beating resumes immediately, followed by César's laughter.]

rexthebuilder: (bad teenager joke)
From: [personal profile] rexthebuilder
[Rex pauses in his pillow beatings to consider this.] You are a cool priest. César doesn't have it here. So there's plenty of time to come up with something obnoxiously awesome!

1/2

A little bit of everything!

pineapplesalmon: (confidence)
From: [personal profile] pineapplesalmon
[At the exact same time, snickering at the names as Rex laughs at them.]

A little bit of everything—heyyyyyyyyy. [Another laugh from Rex.] Less experiments and more engineering, often on a microscopic level. But I have equipment for 3d printing, welding, programming of machinery, some circuitry stuff. And also it can go 99% to the speed of light.

rexthebuilder: (evil smile upper hand)
From: [personal profile] rexthebuilder
[A moment as Rex processes this, then.]

USS SNAKE NUTS!

[HOWLS. HOWLING. DEAD.]

pineapplesalmon: (you're funny rex)
From: [personal profile] pineapplesalmon
NO! [Also laughing.]
