“Hey, I get it. No faith. Was just in the army, no big deal.”
“Yeah, I’m on top of it. And I’d offer, but I’ve got a job. Sorry.”
“Oh, right, I always forget about that. In that case, sure, carry me away, off into the sunset preferably. Best if you have a white steed too.”
“Anything cool? And kidding. Mostly. Let me know if you find a dinosaur something though. Screenshot it and send it over?”
“Are you gettin’ lots of tips, at least?”
“Nuh-uh, guess not. Would you be out there playin’ if you didn’t have to work through it?”
“I’m whining, how dare you make me look on the bright side. Just for that, I’m going to say no. Never. Not even with the charming smiles or blowjobs in the back alley.”
“Nah, I’m not a fan of the whole running around and not paying attention to the shit going on around you thing.” He realizes that it makes him sound almost like a grumpy old man, but better that than the paranoid man he is.
“Might live. If not, I’ll carry you to the emergency.”
“Uh, I dunno. It’s pretty easy. A little reading and a lot of tapping. Some sliding? Mostly walking around. It’d be a bonding experience for you guys! No way I’m stepping between that.”
“With those tiny arms, really? You’d leave me here to die, let’s be real. Be honest.”
“Doesn’t sound too bad. How you doin’? You’re actually playing? Dude, wait, nah, nah, no kid wants to spend all her time with her dad.”
“Really?” She turns to take a quick glance around, as if she’ll see something. Just lots of people wandering with their phones. “Makes this place look a lot more populated than it is.”
“Oh yeah, definitely does. Like everyone is out every single night, I swear it never slows down. I’d love the liveliness if I didn’t have to work through it. How come you ain’t partying though? Not your people?”
“Gotta be.”
“C’mon,” he teases. “Don’t be stingy. And I dunno, you’d have to let her catch ‘em and figure it out.”
“Stingy? Ow, now you just hurt my feelings.” He puts a hand to his heart and pouts.
“Alright, can a five year old play it? Like be real here. Is she gonna play or would be doing it for her? Or, hey, easy babysitting, I’ll pay you.”
“C’mon. It’s a Raichu now.”
“Maybe you should try it out when you’re off. Wouldn’t your daughter like it? There’s dinosaur ones.”
“Shit, look at you go, catchin’ em all.”
“Aw, nah come on, Dad’s phone is Dad’s phone. Judging by whatever I’m seeing, I’d never get it back. Right? ...How many dinosaur ones, though?”
“Just missin’ out on the pokemon stuff, I guess.”
“Is that what everyone’s lookin’ at their phone for?”
“Probably, yeah. Not gonna lie, Iit’s kinda fun watching them walk into walls. The really really really tiny asshole part of me loves it. ” And makes it happen but he leaves that tidbit out.
“It is a lot busier. What pokemon stuff?”
“THE pokemon stuff, where’ve you been? I=Under a rock? In a ditch? Swimming across the Pacific? Or wait, is this the other one?”
“Yeah, tons of people going on about that app. All over the news, huh?”
“You playing?”
“Nah, just listening to people play it all day while I slave away like the tireless, dedicated worker I am. You get your pikachu?”
“Business has been crazy since that pokemon stuff happened. There are just people hanging out all over the square?”
“Are you training them to… steal cars?”
“Was just on my way home from work, thought I heard something.”
“I mean the goal’s stealing airplanes but you gotta start somewhere.”
“Seems like you thought righ...right... Dude” He lets himself trail off, as if distracte dby something behind Leo. He doesn’t know shit about squirrels so he can’t completely create an illusion of one, but he can make a furry squirrel tail be wagging back and forth from the inside of Leo’s car.
“Oh, I can like you and still keep secrets.” In fact, he could count on it.
“No, but maybe I should.” When the flower gets tucked into her hair, her smile grows. “So you’re not busy anymore, then?”
“Now I’m beginning to think you work for the FBI.”
“Psh, I’m a dad, when am I not busy? I have some downtime, actually. You? Have time to grab breakfast or a cup of coffee?”
Nora’s hand is coiled loosely around a glass of bourbon, her finger rapping against the side of it. It’s hard to say how long she’s been tucked away, sitting at this table, and nursing this drink and the last. But that’s the least of her concerns. More pressing matters pick at her brain, all of them loud, clashing, and multiplying – a fact that makes her take a long sip of her drink now.
“Hey.” Simar presses up against the counter with a small nod. It’s late and he’s itching to get home. Last call had been a while ago and people’d been slowly filtering out, but the woman still sits in the corner of the room “We’re closing up in a minute.”
“Y’know, I don’t doubt that.”
“But hey, what’s going on? What’s got you out here?”
“Nothing much, man. I’m actually training squirrels. How about you?”
“Just don’t want to let you in on it.”
“Sweet talker, as always.” When she’s with Simar, she tends to let other thoughts disappear. “I’m great–– didn’t expect to see you. It’s a nice surprise.” When he emerges with a flower from his backpack, her smile is mixed with surprise and confusion. “That’s beautiful. Do you always keep one in there, just in case?”
“Ow, I’m hurt. And here I was thinking you liked me. I guess I could never be so lucky.”
“Always, don’t you?” He waves her question off without an answer as he tucks it behind her ear. “I agree about the nice surprise. It’s a great way to start off the morning”
“He dropped them when I noticed. Must’ve realized he was in over his head.”
“Nah, I don’t know. If he had the balls to steal your keys, he was probably seconds away from getting away with your car, too. Squirrels these days.”
“Any day now, I’d say. Any day.” Truthfully, she doesn’t really know the first thing about him. Stranger is her interest in the opposite.
It’s difficult not to smile at his own that he’s wearing. “Oh, I’m sure you never run out at a bar.” Especially since Simar seems to fit the bill of being a fun bartender. “Sorry to interrupt what you were doing.”
“That just sounds like you’re nowhere close.”
“Nah, it’s no big deal. I’d much rather see you anyway. Sup, beautiful, long time no see.” As he’s getting up, he makes sure she sees him rummaging through his stuff for just a second before he pulls out a flower for her -- though it was a piece of paper only seconds ago.
