The prompt was Matt/Adam, watching Alias
"See that's what I like about Weiss," Matt said, as he tipped the popcorn bowl to better share with Adam. "He's loyal. Look how fast he drops everything to help when his friends need him."
"He's boring as hell, Matt. The only scene that would be interesting to watch him in is if Sark tortured him."
"Pfft. Sark wouldn't last a day as an internationally-sought criminal in real life. He's too soft."
"What? He's not soft, he's just refined. He is obviously quite a brilliant strategist, as well."
"Yeah, right. Here I thought he was one of those guys who just keeps getting foiled when he tries to be part of world-domination schemes. What are those guys called again? Brilliant? No. Strategists? No. Oh, yeah, wait, I remember - they're called dumbasses."
There were several moments of silence before Matt finally said, "Sorry. Present company excepted, of course."
