[congratulations you actually got her to stop and think about it.
truthfully?]
No.
[this is delivered after what looks like pondering really hard about it-it's hard to pay attention to the movie and to think about such serious questions at the same time! at least when Edward's not actually trying to multitask.]
he'd totally enjoy this movie a lot more if she weren't around, but really, it's basic plot structure. which he's not terribly familiar with, but he does know how to keep things interesting, at the very least. ]
[she settles down after that, watching more peacefully-or at least as peacefully as the term implies with her usual fidgeting, and laughing out loud at whatever she finds funny. when it ends, she has a new goal in mind.]
Spike! Spike! Let's go to the sea. With Faye and Jet and Ein!
[because she can look for mermaids, and if she sees one, everyone should see it too.]
What? No. [ that's the stupidest thing he's ever heard. besides, mermaids aren't real (though, let's be real - if someone can genetically alter people to turn into apes? mermaids can totally be real). ] We're not gonna change the course so you can go to the beach.
[ this is why cartoons suck. ]
Just go lay out in the sun when we land. It's the same thing.
Like doing my job?[ ROUND UP CRIMINALS GET MONEY ] Making sure I actually get the information I need to do that.[ and here look he's changing the channel back. where is big shot. where did it go in an hour and a half. ]
Is that seriously all the gratitude we're gonna get? We let you stay here, and all you do is want to take a vacation. Next thing I know, you and Faye will be ganging up on us.
[and there she goes, out of his personal space, in the direction of where Jet will be. of course, she's going to rephrase it to be "the next time we get a bounty out by the beach can we go to the ocean" which is an entirely OTHER question, but regardless.]

[you do know she could hack the Bebop again and change course herself, right. that's if she got upset enough.]

he frowns and reels back, practically leaning over the armrest of the sofa. ]
...Go whine to Jet about it, Ed. I have better things to do.

spike scowls, eyes trained on ed for a long moment.
