“That… that was amazing! How do you do that?” Penny exclaimed. “I’ve
never seen anything like this firsthand! I’ve heard stories of people
doing stuff like this but I’ve never seen it with my own eyes!”Penny
was so excited to see something like that that she completely forgot
about being extremely tired. She grew from just being mildly intrigued
by the Repairman to suddenly very interested.
“Oh,” the Repairman shrugged, “that’s just Toon physics.”
He noticed her taking a strong interest. He couldn’t help but smile a little at the attention. He was a Toon, after all. Still, something about the way she looked at him made him…uneasy after a bit. Like he might be strapped to an operating table or something if he wasn’t careful.
What, her? No, that wouldn’t happen…
He shuffled back a little and cleared his throat.
“Uh, yeah, never really thought about it. I just go towards the other universe, and then I’m there.”
He hoped that would satisfy the kid. He wanted to stay intact, thank you…
No, no, it’s fine…
