Title : The WonderWoman Conundrum

Rating : PG (maybe a bit of language, though).

Genre : Friendship. Itsy bitsy teeny tiny hints of Shenny.

Length : 333

Disclaimer : Crap, I still don't own Sheldon. I don't own WonderWoman and her super-friends either.

Notes : Something I thought about while reading an awesome book about the most famous Marvel and DC Comics' covers.

By the way, I don't know squat about Halo, so I don't have the faintest idea whether you can play it at three against two or not. I also like a lot comic books, but I don't know everything about it. On the contrary, in fact. So if I ever said anything wrong about superheroes, please mention it to me.

So, there are two versions of this OS : this one is the second that I wrote. I put it first because it's the shortest, and the second one (which is the first one that I wrote) is some kind of « Director's Cut » version. I wanted you to have the short and the extended versions of the same story. I actually prefer this one, it's a lot more what I had in mind when I had the idea.

"Hey, why don't the superheroes ever date anyone?"

Too preoccupied by getting their ass kicked at Halo by the Sheldon-Penny team, Leonard, Raj and Howard didn't bother answering the young woman. Sheldon, however, seemed to consider the question.

« Actually, Penny, you'll find that a lot of superheroes, although they often have relational issues because of their double identities, have partners. » explained Sheldon without stopping staring at the screen.

« No, I meant female superheroes : you know, super heroines.

- Oh. Well, indeed, despite being most of time sexually attractive, they are very often emotionally charged, but don't engage in intercourse that much.

- Yeah ... I don't know about you, but I find it kinda sexist. Y'know, Batman can have sex with whatever bimbo he wants, but whenever Harley Quinn wants to have a little romp with the Joker, he always refuses.

- Not that I want to cut in, » cut in Howard in his usual lewd voice, « but if I remember correctly, on the cover of the 205th issue of the first of the « WonderWoman » series, march-April 1972, WonderWoman was straddling some sort of huge phallic shaped missile. I think the symbol was pretty clear! » he ended in a chuckle.

« Yeah ... If I remember correctly, Howard, » she remarked, « it was 1973, not 72, and she was thinking « Suffering Sappho - Unless I can stop this missile - I'll destroy New York! ». Now, I'm no Antic Greece expert, but I believe that Sappho is pretty much the lesbian icon, right? »

Penny shot at look at the three guys : their gazes were drifting away, ecstatic smiles growing on their lips. She could only imagine they were now picturing WonderWoman getting down on Catwoman, or something similar.

Shaking her head, she turned back to Sheldon ; they exchanged a complicit glance, both hit a few buttons on their game handles, and « Game Over » appeared on the screen.
