Six Sentence Sunday - 03 Jun 2012

For today it's back to Side Effects. We rejoin our would-be scientist, Max, as he and Damien discuss getting their prospective research project okayed by their professor:

"Why me?" I asked.

"Well, I did all the hard work--besides he likes you better than me."

"That's only because I don't argue every point he tries to make during the lecture."

"No, it's because you," Damien chuffed my shoulder with his fist as he grinned his silly lopsided grin, "are just an apple-polishing little squib."

"And you," I poked him in the chest as I picked up his verbal gauntlet, "are an over-educated, under-socialized mental behemoth."

And so we went, back and forth, all the way to Professor Simmons' office--he really does like me better.
