[ dave doesn't seem remotely as determined because he's almost casually giving dirk a hard time here about...apparently playing keep-away? sure. that seems fun. he makes his plans on the fly, always, but it's occurred to him more than a few times that even if he can't do unstable loops (wouldn't for this lowkey shit anyway, dead daves are the enemy) there are some very interesting ways to abuse stable timeloops here.
like.
even more so than at home.
because here? dave can talk to himself without anyone else tuning in. there's no need to be in his own line of sight to use hand signals or body language to clue himself in on shit. he can talk directly into his own mind and no one else will ever know.
so the dave who is stationed out of his own eyesight and out of attack range but who is specifically there to give him a full view of the battlefield (himself, after this is done) simply says Below and dave reacts to the actual dirk. he hadn't flinched at the afterimages though he'd tensed up - not in the sense that he was upset, but in the sense that he was trying to figure out where the attack was going to come from so he could avoid it.
he's probably not very upset since dave is just.
laughing...as he uses a one-dave-army advantage to dodge and tap dirk's arm before jetting off. he's going to keep using his own future intel here? so you're going to have to out cheat the worst human-kid cheater here, or figure out a way to stop dave cheating to start with.
or just like
get him to stop dicking around, that is also an option ]
Tag, you're it.
[ considering the amount of amused taunting dave just loaded that with, dirk is probably not going to call it quits though. ]
