[ Welcome, everyone, to the S.S. Tourist! Please enjoy your stay aboard out little ship - there's dinosaur meat courtesy of Allen and Sokka, at least four slugs (be careful, they're really Fenris' even if he won't say it), Winn's officially out of his comma, the coffee machine is behaving more or less (Kirk has poetry for you to sweet talk it if you need it). All aboard! ]

Which came first, though, the chicken or the egg?

[winn]

Well, considering we were named before we had set personalities, and we were raised by the people who gave us those names - which one's the chicken and which one's the egg? Either way, parents' fault.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ here there be monsters ]

Ah, well. I actually think Winn is a nice name.

[winn]

Thanks. [ he smiles reassuringly. he's not going down that road, he's consciously trying to get off it. ] That's the upside of nerdy names, they can usually be shortened to something that isn't half bad. Hence - all of the Hanks.

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah, I was just lucky mine was actually an Earth name too.

[winn]

Yeah, that was really lucky. Though, people have some weird names out there, you could've probably gotten away with anything. There was a girl in my high school named Story Book Johnson, really made me feel better about Winslow Schott.

[takingkarabusiness]

That's just a name that's begging to be a fairy tale themed superhero.

[winn]

[ he laughs, congratulations kara, he actually laughs. ]

That would pretty awesome. I just remember her rolling her eyes at people a lot.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ yaaay ]

Maybe a really benign villain then.

[winn]

The kind you can just - lightly shove into submission.

[takingkarabusiness]

Put some books out of order in the library.

[winn]

And then be frustrated forever when no one even notices because internet and e-books.

[takingkarabusiness]

Maybe she's watching this and getting ideas right now.

[winn]

Would be like her, she was always kind of a follower.

[takingkarabusiness]

Sick burn.

[ she (not so) subtly pushes some more food toward him ]

[winn]

[ he picks up a piece, but ends up toying with it instead of eating it. ]

That would be the villain name of the guy who tried to set the chem lab on fire.

[takingkarabusiness]

That's a bit of a stretch...

[winn]

Really? I think it works.

[takingkarabusiness]

"Sick" isn't a good first name though.

[winn]

Yeah -- I was thinking villain name, not given name.

[takingkarabusiness]

Oh! In that case, yeah. I was thinking first names that double as villain names.

[winn]

Yeah, no, I think his real name was like Josh or something.

[takingkarabusiness]

Josh is kind of a proto-villain name, not going to lie.

[winn]

He's definitely made for villainy.

[takingkarabusiness]

I'm sure there are some decent Joshes out there.
