There's something to watching Bart play computer games.
It's not that he does it faster than anyone else. There's a limit on how quickly the commands go through, and Bart has to slow down to something on two or three steps above regular human game-freak.
It's more to do with how he just doesn't make a wrong move *twice*. Occasional death, dealt with before it has a chance to really register and back on the horse, jump, kick, run, left, left, power-up *charge*.
Die, restart.
Jump, kick, run, left, left, *pause*, power-up *charge*, jump right...
There's no break in the motion, none that Ray can see. Computer games aren't his usual projects, but he has a sudden wish to design one, just to see what Bart would do to it.
No, what he *really* wants is to get Bart into programming. Hacker-Impulse would be a terrible thing to unleash on the world, but a helluva thing to play *against*.
Maybe he can buy Bart a few books, leave them around. Cyberpunk and programming for dummies, just to get him started.
"You want the other control?" Bart says. "I've almost clocked this, we can play something else two-player."
"Just what I was thinking," Ray says, settling down next to him.
Punch, jump, duck, *explode*.

Secondly Thank you for writing this pairing...
Hacker Impulse would rock. *Brain goes to happy place with Ray and Bart having fun pitting seized supercomputer facilities against each other* Ok back now; You've done something remarkable, got two geeky things I'm addicted to and fused them.

What is you icon? Is it a GITS SAC reference, or am I reading too much into articulated shoulders and origami?
