Rond Vidar leaned over the table and continued to whine. "come on! you have to we have a deal.."
"no." Brainiac 5 was as stubborn as ever.
"its a tradition that i take you out. now lets go." he made a movement that pointed at the door.
"i am not going any where today." Brainiac 5 looked up from what he was doing. "and I'm really NOT going anywhere with you."
"why not?"
"this day tends to be horrible . And looking back they all have one thing in common you."
"you're making that up."
"last year, we went to a carnival and you broke three of my toes trying to win a stuff duck."
"i didn't know the mallet could snap back like that."
"the year before that when you took me to an underground chicken fighting ring. Where i believe i caught a form of the black plague."
"you couldn't expect me to know they were fixing the fights by using germ warfare."
"or the year we went to a concert and we ended up getting kidnapped for nine weeks "
"come on, that is a story you are going to be telling for the rest of your life."
"then there was the year you set me on fire." he glared. "twice."
"hey you can't prove that it was me the second time."
"then there was the time let me get drunk and tattoo your name on my ass."
"did i not tattoo yours on mine as well."
"the year you had me go visit my mother in the crazy house. And she drugged me, cut out my left kidney and i woke up in a barrel filled with ice. "
"okay I'll give you that one."
"i have more, they do down hill from there."
"so your really not going to come out with me."
"no."
"are you going to eat the cupcake i made for you ?" he pointed to the red velvet cupcake on the work table that Brainiac 5 was siting at.
"no, because if i do I'm going to choke and die."
"well then." Rond sat down next to his friend. "i guess we just have to do it in here then."
Brainiac 5 held one hand up, leaned to side his and pushed himself back so they were the distance of his arm apart. "you have to remain this far apart from me at all times."
"i promise."
Brainiac 5 gave him a look like he didn't believe him but went back to his work.
Rond drummed his fingers against the table. Brainiac 5 didn't look up from his work leaned over to get reached for a tool. Trying to be helpful Rond picked it up and held it out for. Brainiac but the Green skinned Boy did not look and leaned right in the tool. It hit him in the eye.
"OW!"
for the rest of the night Rond Sat in the corner of the lab as far from Brainy as he could get him while still in the lab, Hands a feet tried to a his chair. At 11:59 he smiled and spoke. "happy Birthday Querl."
