#and then I failed to use the sick Scott cheat code

“Let me get this straight,” Scott begins, fingers massaging his temples in the hopes to keep the headache forming at bay. It won’t work, and he knows it won’t because it’s never worked, but he can’t make himself admit it. “Eggs decided that, despite seeing Mike less than three inches tall with his own eyes, we were all pulling a massive prank on him.”

Said blond nods to state the one putting the summary together is on the right track.

“So instead of telling someone this theory who you trust to tell the truth, such as James or I, you immediately went to David.”

“So we agree it’s that dumbass’ fault,” the business man growls. He hesitates at the glare aimed toward him, however, the angry finger point faltering.

“And instead of being responsible and redirecting him toward someone else, you went ahead and egged him on.”

Eggs grins at the unintentional pun, though for once being wise and keeping quiet with their poor Scott ready to explode at any moment. Definitely bringing it up later.

“Which brings us to you challenging him to demand Mike prove he can shrink and grow, and instead of stopping him, you also requested a demonstration. So, I arrive to the conclusion you two being three inches tall are completely your faults and therefore I have no intention of making Mike grow you back until he sees fit.”

Scott sends a look toward David immediately protesting. Finds himself softening his expression at the realization how terrifying he must look as the egotistical man. The one who’d never back down from an argument and yet is suddenly clamping his mouth shut tight.

When he doesn’t say anything, the significantly smaller clears his throat. “Scott, I’m handheld. Mike picked us up to bring us over to you. I’d rather, you know, not be able to get killed by the first goddamn insect that finds me!”

David then looks over at Eggs with the silent demand he helps them grow back, damn it!

He knew it was a lost cause as soon as the shorter snorts with laughter. “Egged.”

“Look keep him shrunk but tell Mike to grow me back!”
