(Mun again! I know, 2 in a day, but I’m sick and bored 😅

Don’t worry, Goliath, you’re in good company 🤣

While Liberty has picked up a good bit of modern slang, her pattern of speech is still very similar to Goliath’s, and she can switch between the two whenever she’s with him and Hudson or the trio of youngsters.

This may seem duplicitous or two-faced, but I feel like it’s very smart on her part. She’s socially aware enough to know how to speak to be understood clearly depending on who she’s with.

Add onto that her passion for reading, and her lexicon improves vastly, and sometimes she’ll purposefully use complex vocabulary to mess with the trio if they’re getting on her nerves (which is more often than you’d think)

Brooklyn: Cool
Brooklyn: Cool
Brooklyn: Cool
Brooklyn: Cool

Brooklyn: Cool

Broadway: It's a new word we learned last night*

Lexington: It indicates a positive response

Once again, Brooklyn starts the thread of doing something they're unsure of how Goliath would react to, but the other two are right on his wavelength. It's all very appropriate for each of them. Brooklyn just does it, Broadway explains why they did it, and Lexington explains the behavior. Action, social responsibility, information sharing. There are probably better ways to put it, but so far, this feels like the roles these three often are falling in to people called Furi (me).

Goliath is so perplexed by it. They're moving so much faster than him. He had no real interest in integrating into this world even if he wasn't going to stop the others, but now he's faced with the prospect of having his own motivations to actually care about this stuff, and I don't think he totally knows how to process. He did just fine with the names and all the new things he saw, but a new slang word, new language, is suddenly throwing him off.

Between Demona showing up and giving him a reason of his own to look forward to the future and embarking on a mission that isn't quite gargoyles-like, this is one thing too much apparently in this moment. Poor Goliath
