[ Eddie doesn’t look particularly amused by that comment. He doesn’t respond, but he shoots Robin a withering glare as he pulls himself up onto the counter beside her and follows her lead almost exactly. He obnoxiously reaches over her to swipe a lollipop of his own from the display, rips the wrapper off with his teeth, turns to spit it ever so politely into the garbage behind him, and begins to partake in the exact same freak behavior of chipping away at the hard candy layer.
But his thoughts are the opposite of hers. As a connoisseur of only the finest junk food, can’t help but think that sour apple doesn’t taste nearly sour enough here in the Horizon, but it’s what he has available to him, and he chomps away at it with his brow furrowed in thought. ]
Guess I’ll, uh, just have to soften the blow somehow.
[ It’s his turn to shoot her a teasing grin, and he chuckles, leaning into her shoulder like they’ve been proper friends for years and not just for weeks. ]
You two ever going to sick of coming to my rescue?
[ Well, Eddie, you see, they didn’t come to your rescue that one time because you said you wouldn’t try to be a hero… ]
