Awkward Bonding Time
Sure he may have been pretty much the only team member to not live at the HQ but it didn't mean that Harry didn't spend a lot of time there. There was never much to do at home and he rather liked his teammates. While he get along with everyone at work and school, he didn't really have many close friends. Which was understandable, Harry didn't really open up much.

But more than anything he wanted everyone on the team to get along at the very least. Ideal scenario would be that they were all good friends and Harry was trying very hard to make sure they hit the minimum 'getting along' level. Though he was having a tough time with Lenny. Although he understood why.

Still, he had to try. So Harry goes to find Lenny to see if the guy was free to do anything.

Harry doesn't like to argue, or even disagree too much with people, so the slight 'you can't be serious' look he gives his teammate is about as far as he'd go. But he refrained from pointing out that there was little logic in putting a nervous guy who hated conflict to the point where it was almost a phobia on a space-stuff powered superhero team. He had no illusions about himself. "That's...an interesting idea. Only one way to find out right?"

	Lenny gives Harry a "I didn't say it was logical" look in return. "Very true. ...where the heck are we at?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He has to go consult his notes and hope the list was right. "Mrs. White, the Rope, the Lounge, Mr. Green, the Candlestick and...I think that's it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sounds right," Lenny agrees. "Okay, what about Professor Plum in the Hall with the Revolver?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	With a shake of his head, Harry shows the Professor Plum card. "Miss Scarlet with the pipe in...the kitchen?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hmm, I got the pipe," Lenny says putting down the card. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't think you'd make a very good murder suspect Lenny," he smiles in what was the Harry version of teasing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh I don't know..I know a lot about how the human body works," he says dryly. "I'm sure I could think of something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah but you'd have to convince people you can be violent. A lead pipe and you? I don't know..." Although in a movie murder mystery he has a feeling he and Lenny would be prime suspects. The non-violent pacifists? Yeah, they'd suspect the least likely people. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Indeed," Lenny replies, drinking his soda in the image of complete nonchalance. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Indeed," Harry agrees and takes a sip of his own soda. (Reply to this)(Parent)
