[The best part about having weird shit happen in this town? Gift time! It's like Hanukkah if instead of lighting candles you get punched in the face. She is super excited when she gets her box: What's it gonna be? More powers? More cool stuff from home? More of Nasira's panties? The possibilities are endless--

Diner

[Lex walks into the diner and lo and behold, observes Annie, the bane of his existence in Mayfield, sitting at the counter. His reaction is automatic]

You again...

[notsaul]

What, a girl's not allowed to eat? Fuck off, Baldy. [french fry at yo face]

[greatestmanll40]

[Lex's eye twitches as the fry bounces off.]

... I merely find it consistently off that I keep running into you.

Despite my efforts.

[notsaul]

Yeah, well, I know I'm really hot and shit and you're probably into all kinds of freaky stuff, but stalking an underaged girl? Probably gonna get you put on some lists. [THROWING ANOTHER just go away man she ain't in the mood for this shit]

[greatestmanll40]

[Lex dodges this fry. He's getting a little... annoyed.]

Dammit, girl.

You have been insulting and annoying me since I arrived here without any justification!

If I so wish to stay here and enjoy a hot meal then I shall regardless of your opinion of me.

[notsaul]

I already told you my fucking justification: Because it's fucking fun. Today? Not so fun. So fuck off. Go sit over there where the shine from your bald-ass head won't fucking blind me.

[greatestmanll40]

Hmph.

Has something finally shaken you? That hellish April Fool's Day joke perhaps?

[notsaul]

I'm not a fucking martini; I don't get shaken.

[greatestmanll40]

Perhaps I should be more blunt and with more common vernacular...

You look like one sorry, sad, sack of shit.

[notsaul]

And you look like an old penis, but I don't fucking judge.

[She sighs loudly, running a hand through her hair.] I just got something really fucking stupid back from the town, okay? Are you fucking satisfied?

[greatestmanll40]

For the most part.

And if you'll pardon my curiosity, just what did you get?

I theorize that the town itself is playing with our emotions through these regains.

[notsaul]

[Without another word, she slams the Purple Heart down on the counter hard enough to crack it.]

[greatestmanll40]

[Lex walks in for a closer look]

A purple heart.

Admirable, though I assume it's not yours.

I'll wager it belongs to a loved one of yours?

[notsaul]

My big brother.

He lost his arm.

[greatestmanll40]

As a former President, I can imagine your brother deserved that medal.

[notsaul]

He sorta sucker-punched a djinn.

I have been told it was awesome.
