That whole adult thing

[xp_jubilee]

I'm pretty sure that I should not be the person small humans look to for inspiration.

Just Saying.

You're safe - being an inspiration to us would mean you'd actually have to speak to us now and then. ;)

[xp_jubilee]

Shh. I think I hear the sound of someone not knocking on my door.

Kid, you wanna talk to me, come talk to me. I'm the weirdly small chick doing high kicks on the back lawn in the afternoons.

[xp_spectrum]

Wow, way to totally miss the point.

You're not an inspiration to any of us, because you don't actually show any interest in us or our doings. Don't flatter yourself that we'd give you that much recognition.

[xp_jubilee]

Ouch, kid. I'm gonna need some lotion for that burn.

You need to step back a bit, look a little closer. Work doesn't leave me a lot of time, but that doesn't mean I don't care, or I don't pay attention.

I think you're doing a great job with that school program you're doing. And I'm told you're doing great with your powers as well.

I'd have taken my rotation training you little hellions but I haven't exactly been in the country, yeah?

[xp_spectrum]

All that's totally fair. But don't call yourself an inspiration when you've barely been around us, okay?

[xp_jubilee]

If it makes you feel better, kid. I wasn't actually referring to the munchkins here. At least, not directly.

Like I said however, I may take a turn at trying to show you all some tricks, if things stay somewhat sane for the next month or two.

[xp_spectrum]

Munchkin? How old do you think we are? Grade school?

[xp_jubilee]

What's wrong with munchkin?

[xp_spectrum]

1) It's ableist as all fuck. It's a derogatory term previously used for little people, taken from The Wizard of Oz.

2) It's demeaning and cutesy and implies that people younger than you are small children.

3) I'm seventeen, goddamnit, not seven. 'Munchkin' is a term for babies and toddlers, not for teens, no matter how old you are.

[xp_jubilee]

No munchkin, got it.

I think, if we're being pedantic, small humans are the ONLY ones who can look up to you.

You're too tiny for anyone else to notice.

Have a great day :) <3

[xp_jubilee]

N'aww. You're so cute when you're being a smart ass. I believe the term you're looking for though, is smol. As you, are tol.

[xp_topaz]

I say the same thing but nobody listens

[xp_jubilee]

Obviously we need to band together in order to become completely unsuitable. I'll bring the questionable ethics and you can bring the bad reading material.

[xp_topaz]

Brilliant. The mansion won't know what hit it

[xp_blink]

it's a mad, mad world

[xp_tarot]

Is there a small human looking up to you, or are you making statements to try to provoke some sort of inspirational conversation among the younger but taller than you humans?

[xp_jubilee]

Probably making statements, that one.
