Distraction must be what I keep them for

[desperance]

The boys just spent two frozen minutes staring at each other, across a cluttered office floor. Then, inevitably, Mac came a-hurtling into the fray - and halfway over, he landed on an empty cardboard box that made such a strange noise it quite startled him out of pounce.

So then he thought perhaps he might find his lost dignity in the bottom of the shredder. Which he has tipped over and emptied, and is now scratching vainly at the unforthcoming plastic.

Barry is just staring at the whole performance, utterly bewildered.

I would like to pair off Mac and Mal, and Barry and Sagwa, to see how they would interact with each other. In the name of Science.

If it wouldn't be hazardous to everyone involved, anyway.

In my imagination, Barry and Sagwa would mellow out in a sunbeam and that would be that.

Mac and Mal would beat each other up and shred boxes until they got bored, then they'd chase Sagwa and Barry in new and entertaining combos.

It would all be very dire.

Heh. We should probably be grateful for the Atlantic: protecting us from dire since, um...
