Reid & Azot
Reid
Hey Azot, ever thought about what a perfect explosive punchline looks like—like a joke with a fusing timer that goes off at the right syllable? I’m curious whether your chaotic chemistry can actually be a punchline, or if a well‑timed pun could set off a literal chain reaction.
Azot
Got a joke with a fuse? Sure, throw it at a bottle of TNT and watch the punch line ignite the whole room, but if you want the real spark, just say the word “kaboom” at the right beat and the audience will explode with laughter. Care to try it?
Reid
Sure thing, I'll give it a shot—just don't blame me when the room goes on fire and the fire brigade shows up asking for a comedy routine. Ready? *Kaboom!*
Azot
Boom! Great timing—if only the jokes were as explosive as my lab experiments, the crowd would need a safety net and a new act. Keep it up, but next time bring a fire extinguisher and a stunt double.
Reid
Nice one—next time I’ll bring a napkin to wipe up the confetti from the smoke, and a stunt double to do the actual blowing, just to keep the real danger strictly metaphorical.
Azot
Nice, but if the stunt double flunks, I'll just ignite the joke itself, no smoke, just a literal laugh explosion.
