Okay, okay, okay.

[Each of those words has a separate amount of emphasis. Ellie is holding her hands up and gesturing like she's trying to make an invisible margarita or something. Anyone who's ever been around teens should recognize the fact it's teenagerese for some form of frustration.]

I'm bored out of my fucking mind. Anybody want to go exploring? Monster hunting?

[Basically: her AU was that she never lost Riley, that it was the two of them that went across America in search of the Fireflies. She never met Joel at all, and her feelings about that whole mess are so mixed she's even willing to go shopping just to take her mind off it.]

Ohh, Exploring sounds good - I need to get out and stretch my legs [ As normal Marinette ] once in a while. I've been cooped up all day. Sure, I'll come along.

Hey. I've got something you might want to see.

Sure. I've been taking trips out into the abandoned section of the city, anyway. You can come with me if you like.

[ Part of her motivation here is that she doesn't want a teenage girl to go charging off into a dangerous area out of frustration, but Anderson truly does go out into it by herself regardless and wouldn't mind the company. It's not so dangerous, and she's confident in her ability to protect one citizen from the assorted wildlife. ]

[There is a lot going on in his life right now, Ellie, but it's a) the fact that there's a child on the screen that has him pausing and b) the language. Not that he hadn't heard it before, but from someone that young, he was expecting a hand to come from off screen and swat her.

It didn't happen. Pity.]

Shouldn't you be somewhere with adults?

[Yes, Spike. State the obvious.]

All tucked up tight and safe and not out trying to get yourself eaten?

You go monster hunting often?

[He's not entirely alien to the concept of kids that like to murder things, so his tone is mostly curious. Not that he looks like more than a teen himself, anyway.]

[It's been a while since he's seen that familiar chicken face.]

You know what they say. If you're bored, you're boring.

[Just ignore Ivar. He's got to be this way before he'll actually contribute anything useful to the conversation.]
