Indeed we are. [He did. Having grown up in an environment where food wasn't always readily available, he didn't complain about offers of it] I have not.

[backendbat]

[he knows the look-- has seen it in plenty of child soldiers.

and unfortunately (??) for Trowa, he's about to get the best of Bataburger. he speeds up, if anything]

You're in for a real treat.

[lionwhisperer]

[There did seem to be a strange need for child soldiers...

Trowa had never tried it so he was willing to give it a try]

I'm curious to try it, since you are recommending it.

[backendbat]

Well it's better than McDonalds...but not sure if it's better than Jack in the Box.

[that's really telling
to anyone who knows what that means]

[lionwhisperer]

Impressive. Definitely worth trying.

[Trowa had tried both at some point]

[backendbat]

[it doesn't take them long to peel out into the city, finally, all that fresh city air pollution and other cars honking and swerving]

Glad to hear the approval in your voice.

[lionwhisperer]

[There was certainly an odd dichotomy about being in the city. There were a lot more people to recognize you, but it was also easier to get lost in a crowd. Trowa appreciated the last part]

I don't know that I have had a burger in a while.

[backendbat]

[who wouldn't recognize two circus boys like these]

You like regular ones? Or have you tried turkey burgers? We can try that next time.

[lionwhisperer]

[Yeah, they were pretty obvious if only because they clearly had qualities that made people pay attention to them]

I do. I have tried those as well. Seasoned right, they are not bad.

[backendbat]

[the really tall pants? the flips?

bataburger-- ah yes, there's the familiar wings]

Good to hear you've had some experience there.

[lionwhisperer]

[Yeah, those tended to do it.

Trowa leaned over to look at the building as they approached]

I take it this a favorite of yours. Anything you'd recommend?

[backendbat]

Well, it's more convenient. And the fries are good. I'd just get a burger combo-- get the rootbeer too, it's pretty good.

[at least the drive through line isn't long]

[lionwhisperer]

Convenient does help. Sounds like a good option. I think I will do that.

[That was good at least. They wouldn't be waiting too long]

[backendbat]

Good deal, man. Anything else that sounds good, you just say so, we'll try it.

[imagine that, a superhero encouraging junk food]

[lionwhisperer]

Sounds good. So far, sounds like what you recommended will be good.

[Once in a while, junk food is fine. Trowa doesn't eat it every day so it's not so bad]

[backendbat]

We can only hope.

[they move up in line, one more to go]

[lionwhisperer]

Yes, that is true. Since actually experience may vary.

[Not saying it would be bad, just that they might be having an off night for example]

[backendbat]

[long as they don't both have to go to the bathroom....

and now it's their turn, thankfully]

[lionwhisperer]

[Oh look it was their turn. Trowa would tell Dick what he wanted in a low voice so as not to have too many people speaking all at once]

[backendbat]

[he orders cheerfully, and they roll up to the next window, money exchanged, ect!!]

[lionwhisperer]

[Trowa sat passenger seat, quietly watching. When the food was handed out in exchange for money, Trowa held out a hand to help take the drinks and bag of food so that he could put them in the drink holders or hold the bag so Dick could drive]

[backendbat]

[he hands the goods over happily, humming as they drive away. the smell is delicious, and totally fattening, just with one whiff that might be a couple of pounds added. not that he cares!]

Feel free to try a couple fries while we go.

[lionwhisperer]

Thanks. I think I will try a few.

[He settled the bags in a safe place so they weren't likely to spill]

Thanks for driving.

[backendbat]

No prob, seriously.

[he's happier to know Trowa is getting fed-- and not in trouble for the most part]

[lionwhisperer]

[Yeah getting food was important. At least he usually had money to feed himself. When he was on the run, he might skip meals for the sake of hiding or putting distance from the person looking for him. At least the trouble wasn't too bad]

Hope I'm not keeping you from anything.
