[she knows there's alcohol in here right? well. still valid. molly is going for the harder stuff though, just clinking around behind the bar.]

Well. Let's see. Monday was nice. Spent some time with a friend. Got have a threesome on Tuesday, that was pretty much the high point. Wednesday I almost drowned. So-so. Thursday, club through my chest. Not a great one. Friday, two people dead. Saturday, we solve the crime, but it's still sort of a shitty solution. So that puts us at today. I'd tally that up to be quite a lot of bullshit for one week, yes.

[messybench]

[ she's too lazy to get alcohol she's just sitting down ]

Threesome? Good for you, you kinky purple dude.

[ she's a little jealous he's getting more action than her..... ]

Get the feeling it's only gonna get worse, though. So bone down and friendship when you can, I guess.

[headmt]

[just raising a bottle like, cheers! at the good for you. yeah! good for him. but,]

Ah. Yes. Law simply said as much to me. Certainly running out of people who aren't so easy to distrust.

[messybench]

[ raises her whipped cream ]

Yeah, well, you're probably safe. Mr. Popular. Plus, pretty sure everyone's too afraid of Harrow to do anything to you.

[headmt]

I have my doubts that popularity will mean a thing as the noose tightens.

[...]

I worry for Harrow a lot, you know.

[messybench]

I think you're safe.

[ alli for endgame.. ]

Yeah? I know she's squishy under that super mean exterior, but she does seem like she can handle herself.

[headmt]

[do NOT curse me like that]

I'm sure she can, but the thing about wizards and mages and the lot is they've got perfectly squishy exteriors too. Concerns such as being knocked over by a stiff breeze and simply passing away.

[messybench]

I dunno, man, I think she's got more grit than you give her credit for. She survived the vore giants.

[headmt]

Of course she has fucking grit.

[A little snappy, almost? And then backs off just as quickly.]

... I'm just saying that no one needs to have that much grit. To do it all by themselves. Sort of the point of finding other people in this shitty fucking universe, isn't it?

[messybench]

[ man he's talking to the wrong person ]

Yeah, well, I'm about the same size as her and I've always had to look out for myself. It's not that hard.

[headmt]

[ maybe! he just looks her up and down quickly though, arms crossing. ]

Fuck that. [And then he just takes a shot of whatever he was holding. Something clear and strong then.] Then you've left me no choice. I'll simply have to do it.

[messybench]

Do what?

[ she looks incredibly wary of whatever friendship speech or promise he's about to unleash ]

[headmt]

[nothing quite so bold as that. his points one finger at her.]

Same deal as any two adventurers in a bar. I'll warn you of any knives heading your way if you do the same for me.

[messybench]

Oh, I was so afraid you were going to give me a heartfelt speech about friendship or something gross like that.

[ yawns a little... ]

Fine, deal.

[headmt]

Am I really coming across as the heartfelt speech person? That's bottoming out for me. That's not good.

[so much vulnerability . . . ]

[messybench]

Kinda, yeah.

[ yawns...... ]

You are kind of a nerd.

[headmt]

Fuck off . . . ?

[rude.]

Can't even read. Don't think it's possible to be a nerd if you can't read.

[messybench]

Nerds come in all shapes and forms. Even dumb nerds.

[ feelings bad and hard ]

[headmt]

[ I mean. respect. it's fine. ]

Dumb nerds who manage to nab the only killer we've caught so far.

[messybench]

Yeah, good job on that. How'd you think of the plan?

[headmt]

Not to take credit from myself, but mostly Harrow's idea. I just had the ink - gave Wrath a tattoo not that long ago. Tested it myself first. Seems Law didn't try to hard to get rid of it, mind. I think it would have been possible.

For example I'd have cut the skin off my fingers and gone in for more healing, but that's just my idea.
