[It's just another day.  Another day since nuclear annihilation and being shot by cannibals.

Holland checks the mail on his way out.  He hadn't gotten anything yet, but since Canada got the moose, he was sure he had something coming.

But it's not until he gets to work that he opens it.  Big mistake.]

A - [The Pharmacy]

[It's slow at the pharmacy

B;

[decadenzas]

[...welp, there's something you don't see every afternoon.]

Trying to make a fashion statement?

[gezellighe]

[Riding right by, riding right by and not going to stop unless someone makes him.]

[decadenzas]

[it's not like he's the kind of person who would yank a bike right out from under an unwitting cyclist!! ...no he totally is, but he decides not to be that asshattish for once, running beside him at an matching pace like the persistent thing he is.]

Are you in a rush?

[gezellighe]

[Speeding up with a frown!]

[decadenzas]

[hup! leaps ever so gracefully onto the handlebars.....]

[gezellighe]

[Woah there, bike. Good bike. He'll stop himself from patting the bike, anyway he's distracted by Charles sitting there. . .]

Don't touch my bike.

[Braking harder!]

[decadenzas]

[tumbles off gracelessly!! ...no just kidding he infuriatingly manages to land on his feet, and even more infuriatingly stands where he landed, directly in front of the bike, because hey every minute is a good minute to start a conversation!!]

You bought another.

[gezellighe]

No, somebody bought it for me. A German.

You're not off the hook; you'd better still pay me.

[Look how intimidating these fluffy ears are Charles! Be afraid.]

[decadenzas]

[he is positively shaking in his boots...] I'll pay you before the holidays begin, then. [because he is actually getting kind of tired of being in debt and reminded about it so often...

not that it will stop him from breaking other people's things in the future, but it's a start!]

Is today a special occasion? [Halloween has already passed]

[gezellighe]

No.

[Everything is normal and nothing is weird.]

Why are you asking. . .

[decadenzas]

[a pointed stare directed right at those oh so intimidating ears.]

I wasn't aware you had a penchant for wearing out of season costumes.

[gezellighe]

It's not what I put on this morning.

[Huff. He'll move the bike forward a little. Patient he is not, right now.]

[decadenzas]

Did it magic itself onto you, then?

[HOLDS A HAND OUT TO STOP HIM

and reaches into his pocket with the other]

[gezellighe]

[He going, going. . . .]

It's Mayfield. The town gave it back.

[decadenzas]

A rather useless regain, that. [hey don't leave gosh!! he's holding his wallet out.]

[gezellighe]

It isn't as if I wanted it.

[Okay, okay. He likes the sight of money.]
