Yeah, I guess, for fun or some shit. Any idea what you want to bet?
[There's a few minutes before Accelerator texts back a response. Jon can't be meaning what happened out in the fog, there's no way he could know his knee was broken. He hasn't mentioned it to anyone, so the only people who would know are John and Harold.
Besides, it's not like it matters. Echo's resurrection brings you back to your previous state of health, so he's back to normal, and his left left in particular is back to its regular weakened state.]
My leg is the same as it always is, brat.

[This child needs to stop being so nice.]
I need the crutch for the rest of my life. My brain injury is permanent.

[That's a sudden swerve in the conversation that makes Accelerator blink in confusion.]
What? Why?
What? Why?
You have your mom and dad. And Robin.
[That's... three people! That's so many people!]
Have you met Toph?
[That's... three people! That's so many people!]
Have you met Toph?
I'm saying there are better people to hang out with around here than me. I'm not good company.
[This reply doesn't come for several hours.]
Why are you asking? I don't want anything.

[Ugh, kids. He's too tired to argue right now.]
Second floor of the library.
Second floor of the library.
I'm out right now and headed back, so I'll meet you there.
[Whatever this is he isn't looking forward to it. He'd rather crawl into bed and sleep for sixteen hours (which is still his plans afterwards) but kids are gonna kids and he'll just deal. It takes him a bit to get back to the library from the northern end of Etraya due to the trolley, and when he does he drags himself up to the public area of the second floor, looking around for Jon.]
( and jon- er, superboy is there!
he’s standing there in his uniform that maybe needs a bit of a wash, holding a plastic bag there dangling in front of him. when he catches sight of accelerator, he smiles and lifts both his hands to do the most awkward sort of wave EVER with both hands still holding the bag and so it’s more of an elbow wave, but! a wave has been given and he makes his way over to the other kid. )
Hey! I’m here!

[Auugh, kids. Why do kids have to be here? It's a lot easier to be miserable when there aren't brats running around, especially ones with the same sunny disposition as Last Order.
He sighs and walks over, looking more tired than usual. Despite having taken some time out of his day to go vent he doesn't have the slightest bit of dirt on him. Having an auto reflect is handy.]
Okay brat, what is it?

( coming to stand in front of accelerator, he drops the bag down there and starts to rummage through it. )
Remember when we were back on that weird Earth and at that convention they had with all those heroes and villains? Well, I took some stuff with me from there and I was going through it all recently since we got back from the last mission ( and he’d been a little bedridden with his injury until the sun could heal him, but! details. ) and so here.
( at that, he holds up a mask for accelerator that is very flimsy cardboard made, but! that’s not all! he’s also pulling out some comic books and even a science book that he holds up for the other kid to take. )

[Okay, that explanation makes sense, but Accelerator stares at the mask because what the hell is that? Count Chocoula? Oh God, the pun is so ridiculous, and it's so childish.
He's dead silent, baffled as he takes everything Jon pulls out of the bag. The comics and the science book look kind of interesting, at least.]
... You think I want this stuff? [Why??? Did he bring it over???????]
