Propmt 25: Crash Test
Could be read as sorta Gibova like, but that wasn't the intention.
Crash Test
"Er... is this safe?"
"I'm not even sure this is legal."
"Oh, come on guys!" Otto finished fixing up Sprx's seatbelt as he spoke. The red monkey was sitting inside the Hyperbuggy along with Gibson. "I need to test the new hyperarmor I installed on this baby yesterday."
"Yeah, but with us?!" Sprx protested.
"Don't worry, it won't hurt, I think."
"You think?!"
Meanwhile, Gibson was frightened for his life, shacking too much to join the argument or even say a word.
"Yeah!" Otto said. "If the armor works, you should be able to leave the buggy without it or you guys having even a dent! Well, unless you crash too hard and get whiplash or something.
"Otto, what are you doing?"
Sprx and Gibson cheered silently as Nova walked up to the black eyed trio.
"I'm performing a crash test on the Hyperbuggy." Otto explained. Nova raised an eyebrow and walked over to the two restrained in their seats. She turned back to Otto after a moment. "Um... I kinda needed these guys for um... combat practice. Yeah, right, combat practice."
"Hey Nova," Sprx whispered, leaning towards Nova, "remind me to reward you later for saving me." He puckered his lips and made kissing noises.
Nova smirked. "Actually, Otto, I only really need one person for combat practice. You can keep the red one." Sprx jaw dropped and Nova helped Gibson free himself.
Gibson gained the same smirk as Nova. "Thank you Nova. I assure you I will be as much of a challenge to spar with as Sprx."
The two walked off to watch the crash test unfold, and that's the real reason Sprx's teeth were so bad when they were shooting Soul of Evil later that week.
