Where's My Super Suit?!
By Morgana Ravenheart
A/N: So, I saw a gifset of the iconic super suit scene in The Incredibles. I suddenly had a thought, has anyone done this scene from Honey's point of view? So I did a little research...
... and, no. No it hasn't been done. So, here I am. And I'll finish IML and LPG and TMV and FTS soon. I know. Just... give me time, work's been fucking me over.
Mrs Honey Jones stood in the kitchen, over the stove and stirring a pot. She wore a deep red cocktail dress with her hair in a complicated braid. Tonight was the night. They'd been planning this dinner for months and months. She checked on the starter and everything seemed to be in order. Then she heard her husband, Lucius, call from the bedroom.
"Honey?!"
Honey gave a smile, straightening up. "Whaaat
"Where's my super suit?" Lucius asked.
Honey faltered. "Whaaat?"
"Where. Is. My. Super. SUIT?!"
Oh, crud. "I, uh, put it away!"
"WHERE?!" Lucius yelled over an explosion.
Honey frowned, "Why do you need to know?!"
"I NEED IT!"
"Uh-unh! Don't you think about running off, doin' no darin'-do! We've been plannin' this dinner for two months!" Honey called back, indigent.
"THE PUBLIC IS IN DANGER!"
"MY EVENIN'S IN DANGER!"
"YOU TELL ME WHERE MY SUIT IS WOMAN! WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE GREATER GOOD!" Lucius yelled.
Honey turned to the door, hands on hips, face contorted, "'Greater good'?! I AM YOUR WIFE! I'M THE GREATEST GOOD YOU ARE EVER GONNA GET!" she yelled at him.
Honey heard Lucius' sigh.
"Honey, please. People could die. Now I love you, and I promise we will do this tomorrow night, but please. I gotta go," Lucius pleaded.
Honey sighed, moving towards him. She cuffed him around the back of his head. "In the laundry room, on the top self," she said. "Now go and help Bob out."
Lucius grinned, kissing her quickly before dashing off.
Honey smiled and went to get changed. The food could keep for one more night. If supers came back, she guessed that they'd have to get used to it.
Why, oh why, did she have to fall in love with a man who freezes everything he touches and risks his life for a living? Honey smiled and put a hand to her belly. Oh well. Maybe this time it would be different.
A/N: Well, there you have it. One of my favourite scenes in that movie. In a whole new perspective.
