"If you were trying to reach Bart Allen. Well. I've got good news and bad news. Good news: this is he. Bad new: this is a pre-recorded me. Because I got bored waiting for people to call and went to do something cool. More good news though: I'll be back to check my messages before you know it. Probably. Usually. Sometimes. Occasionally. Look, it's a better plan to just post a feed that I can tap into anywhere, OK? Hang a sign in your window that says "Bart stop here" is gonna be the fastest way to flag me down. But if you must, leave one."

Depends. Would you consider...

[ He has to pause to think about it. And then pause a little longer. ]

...a lot of glasses drunk?

[backinakidflash]

That's a big yes. Is this going to turn into one of those Very Special Lectures at school where someone needs to make sure you fall asleep on your stomach with your head turned?

[manofiron]

No. Not at all. I am a pro at this whole drinking thing. After School Specials are so not necessary.

[backinakidflash]

[Bart just shakes his head at this.]

Now there's something to be proud of.

[manofiron]

Better than being ashamed of it.

[backinakidflash]

I dunno. I never quite got the whole 'drinking til you can't remember' is fun thing.

[manofiron]

Me either. But then I usually remember the shit I do in the morning. So it's lost on me.

[backinakidflash]

But you don't remember what you were doing 15 minutes ago.

[manofiron]

What were you doing fifteen minutes ago?

[backinakidflash]

Making a sandwich. Eating it. Checking the network. Wondering why there's no mass transit here - you'd think they'd have some sort of elevated transport or something. Running around the block. Checking the network. Getting my hair stuck in a window (long story).

Fourteen minutes ago, I came over to my place and checked the inbox here, and there was the whole song and sage thing. Confusion chills me out sometimes. That was a short and slow minute.

And then thirteen minutes ago, I asked you if you were OK. got worried about a residual tribble infestation. I checked the whole place from top-to-bottom. It's clear. Thought about whether or not we should come up with a new myxomatosis in case they ever come back. Decided it was too risky - Australians were lucky it didn't make a species leap with that kind of kill rate. Then I asked you if you hit your head.

Do I need to do the past twelve?

[manofiron]

Sorry. You did all of that in three minutes?

Do you have a space-time disruptor thing? Magical doohickey? What's the deal?

[backinakidflash]

I am a space-time disruptor. Sorta. Hi, you've reached Bart Allen, one of Tu Vishan's resident speedsters. My minutes are not your minutes.

[manofiron]

How is that possible? Have you always been like that? Or was it some kind of radiation? Experiment failure? What?
