This didn't turn out as planned. Well, none of it did, but this had been a particularly maddening turn of events that resulted in a rather nasty burn on his shoulder from a zapper and the delicious feeling of adrenaline as he ran like hell

Party gestures with the gun, which had been snatched from holster so fast his hand was trembling ever so faintly.
"I will ghost you from the toes up, you motored shit. Next time. Next fucking time."
Kobra peers around Party, sunglasses on tight, expression slack. If the Kid had reached for his own gun, the movement was lost in Party's explosive presence. Then he leans in, whispers something like a hum, that Party Poison shrugs off noiselessly. Ignoring the tense brother, Kobra steps around him.
"We don't have coffee." With that, he crossed over in smooth strides to a booth.
Party runs a hand down the front of his face, streaking sweat with fingerprints of dark dust.
"I think half my heart burned out just now. Fuck." He re-holstered, taking a step in. "The waves were burning hot for you for a while, caught sound you were up to some ballsy shit."

Whatever he might have thought is hidden under a lazy smile, shrugging elaborately. Cherri's all big movement for little gestures, pursing his lips together in a duck-like fashion before responding.
"Weeeelllll," He draws the word out, tasting it, and then snaps back and simply puts his hands up in an 'I surrender' motion. "I needed new shoes."
And, sure enough, bright white sneakers are on his feet, contrasting the neon blue he'd gotten on his suit. He stretches, yawns noisily, and lays down on the counter.
"Lookin' forward to the wonderful times we're gonna have for a bit, motorbaby."

He looks away. Nothing to ask of a guy like Kobra.
"Speakin' of motorbabies, ours'll be out in some dustpile until we can clear up the bleeding rat troubles out this way. Dracs've been popping out of her goddamn ears 'round the diner. Jet and Ghoul have her leash." Party's relaxed some just as easily as he'd popped. He snatches the discarded bandanna, shaking it out and stepping towards said counter. "You need paint for those kicks?"

"Always." The word is absent and Cherri glances over at Kobra before rolling over onto his stomach, staring at Party once more.
"So looks like we're here together, huh? Playin' house. One big happy family with errything and errybody all up in this shit." He winked, kicking his feet up occasionally, staying quiet for a few minutes.
"Did you guys know you're super wanted lately? Like, top priority shit? The fuck did y'all do?"
