those “monkey brain/human brain” posts except the monkey brain is presented as the rational one

monkey brain: extra body hair provides warmth and producing it but then cutting it off wastes valuable nutrients

human brain: hehe leg smooth

*looking at a tiger*

monkey brain: that animal right there is a dangerous predator adapted for stalking, chasing, and quickly dispatching of creatures like us. we should find high ground to get away from it before it sees us

human brain: hehe kitty wana pet

monkey brain: the ocean is the last place we want to be right now. we’re not built to swim and we’ll likely drown within five minutes. and let’s not even get into what might want to kill us once we get into open water

human brain: wheee swimmy

Thor, through text: Brother, we need to have a serious discussion. Call me that we might talk.

Loki, through text: One moment I can’t find my phone

Thor, through text: OK

Expository dialogue techniques that don’t rely on characters randomly explaining things to each other that they should already know, but do rely on your characters being obnoxious gits:

1. Character A fucks something up hilariously; character B upbraids them at great length about exactly what they did wrong.

2. Character A wildly misreads a situation; character B corrects their misconceptions.

3. Character A tells a complicated and implausible lie; character B points out the obvious holes in their story.

4. Character A can’t find their destination; character B provides rambling and discursive directions.

5. Character A has a straightforward question; character B requests a series of extremely pedantic clarifications.
