[ that's a promise, one allison won't have any trouble keeping. it's nice to know that she and ben are in this together -- they're a team again, and this time, part of a healthy team, one that's going to do some actual good, instead of imploding on itself and destroying the world in the process. besides, allison's generally been pretty good about speaking up, has been since she was young. ]

I bet you one read through of a book of your choice that you couldn't get through one issue of a magazine of mine!
Oh hell yes, are you kidding me? I will TAKE that bet.
[ Would Ben read something like that under his own steam? Probably not. But Allison has tapped into that primal sibling reflex of needing to prove your sister wrong when she says you couldn't do something. It's on now. It's so freaking on. ]
You find a magazine and you can sit there and watch, I'll go cover to cover and then you're gonna have to read some Chekov.
[ He's not cruel! He's not going to pick something long! She should be grateful, since obviously he's going to crush this little bet or theirs. ]
