[The smirk gets an eyeroll. Because that's basically the only way to respond to Wally's shit-eating grin. Which is so not really adorable ohmygodDickshutup.] You could just do my homework for me. You know, read my textbook and do all my work while you're sitting, bored in your class.
[And then he shrugs, taking another sip from his drink] That could work too. But at the same time that would make the upper classes, when you finally get there, so much more boring. Unless you just showed up and took random science classes. It's whatever you want to do, dude. It's your everyday life and all.
[That gets a blank stare, which quickly turns into Dick fighting off a smirk and a laugh.] Yeah, that's why it's a battle every day to keep Artemis and Megan off of you. I don't know how you manage. [But seriously, the pun does kill him, and he can't help but start laughing.]
Dude, I'm not going to do your homework. [Wait, no, think about this as a business opportunity, Wally.] Unless you, like, pay me or something. You could literally pay me in food. I'd never go hungry again.
[He shrugs.] I dunno, I'll talk to my counselor once I get back to school. For now, let's not talk about school, because it's just another reminder that I'm going back in a week.
Dude, I'm not going to pay you to not be bored. I can do my homework by my self. [And that's when he finishes his drink, tossing it into the trashcan at the end of their table, making it in easily and smiling his 'I'm just too awesome for my own good' kind of smile.]
What? Come on, you're the one who said I should do it in the first place. [Also he just really loves free food. So I mean, any day without free food is a sad day.]
[Wally follows suit and quickly dumps all his trash in the trashcan.] Okay, but you are not getting me to ride the Ferris wheel. I freaking hate those things.
And dude, no. Ferris wheel? Come on, that's like, kid-stuff. We're hitting the rides.
[And by rides he actually means the one roller coaster and a few of those really sketchy twister stomach-drop rides. Because there's no fun unless danger's involved.]
[But now they're walking toward the rides! And Wally's just kind of laughing at how excited Rob is, because it's times like these that he remembers Rob is still only thirteen. Not that being fifteen makes Wally much more mature, but sometimes it feels that way, even if it was only two years ago that he was thirteen, too.]
Yeah, well, you can go get torted up by a bank if you'd rather.
[And Rob doesn't even care right now, because yeah, he is totally excited to be here with his best friend going to ride a bunch of rides. He can't remember the last time he rode a ride. Not since he's become Robin, that's for sure.]
