He scowled right back but kept his eyes on the road.

"Tetrapod vertebrates" he mimicked her, laughing. Sometimes she could be such a geek. "Besides, fucking Raptors were birds. I've seen Jurassic Park Three. Fucking Raptors were birds and they had fingers. Birds don't have thumbs, that's why they can't pick anything up."

He met her gaze with raised eyebrows, as if she dare contradict his fact. "I'm telling you, fish have legs." Signalling, he pulled off the road and into a side-of-the-road diner. Parking up he switched the engine off and it was quiet in the car and the radio died away.

"You've seen Jurassic Park? That's your scientific proof? The third movie in a lackluster series? Not even the original, but three, and you're going to try to school me? Fuck off," Jenny replied quickly, scowling further at him. It was mostly the laughing that got her riled up. He was always laughing at her when she said something serious.

"I'm sorry if vertebrate is too many syllables for you. I can define if for you, if you'd like?" she offered, raising an eyebrow at him, a somewhat arrogant look on her face. How did he always get her like this? He was such an asshole.. mostly.

"I want scientific proof, and that means backed up by legitimate scientific journals and findings, that fish have legs. If you can literally prove to me that fish have legs, I'll eat my sneakers."

Charlie looked crestfallen. "You don't like Jurassic Park? They had like, dinosaur experts on set making sure everything was scientific. That's your fucking scientific proof!"

Charlie fished in the dash for a few seconds, grabbing a few crumpled notes and a shit load of change before stepping out of his car and locking up.

"I will ask Professor Baer about it, get ready to eat your goddamn sneakers."

"I only ever saw the first one," Jenny admitted. "We watched it with our dad when it was still kind of new.. it was scary when you're like five, okay?" she added, climbing out of the car once he did, and slamming her door behind him. Again, just another little tactic she liked to employ to get under his skin. It never failed to piss him off, just that little bit.

"I want Professor Baer to tell him himself. Or write it done. It can't just be word of mouth from you, because you'll lie to me, and don't act like you won't."
