"Shrink Dani!"
"Shrink John!"
Lisa's eardrums were being assaulted by two children talking over each other with similar requests. John wanted to see his sister shrunk while Dani wanted to see her brother shrunk. Honestly, it wasn't all that surprising considering what the twins just saw happen to their parent's coffee table.
"Whoa there. One at a time." Lisa smiled. "I might have two ears but it's hard to understand the both of you when you talk over each other. Let's try this again, alright."
The twins nodded and John spoke up first. "I want to see you shrink Dani."
Lisa nodded. "Why?"
John seemed a little shy now. "We could recreate the movie Ant-Man or something."
She made a mental note that John also seemed to like superheroes. "Okay then. How about you, Dani?"
The blonde answered without the same shyness as her brother. "I want you to make John tiny."
Lisa hummed. "Why's that?"
"So he can fit inside my dollhouse." Dani answered. "He still owes Barbie a date."
John actually groaned. "Do I even want to ask?"
"Not really." He sighed with something like resignation in his voice. There was clearly a story there.
Lisa tapped her chin in thought as she pondered the best way to go about this. She had science fiction technology in her possession and two kids who wanted to shrink the other for different reasons. The question is, who did she zap first. Should she blast Dani for John or vice versa? Maybe she could try to suggest something different like shrinking them both at the same time?
"Okay... I think I've decided who'll shrink first."
The twins seemed to be listening with rapt attention.
Lisa adjusting the shrinking ray and took aim, shrinking...
