【 @tewwor ( higu ) | ❛ don't know about that one, chief. ❜ | mixed bag prompts , accepting.
instinctively, teeth are bared, a huff following close behind. ( an inkling of frustration, a glimpse of rage. ) it's quick, transient, then gone. slinking deeper into the shoddily made &. poorly maintained bench, lucifer clicks his tongue. all smirks, all devilish wit, whole once more aside from the itching against their back. higu insist it doesn't stop—— that it's only going to wane then surge. not even hell offers such an evil punishment ... yet that's on brand for THEM. ( father above and all. )
❛ well, you're young. in a sense, not as young as the rank and file but ... well, ❜ he lets words hang—— just as he, in a sense, timeless. seeing each and every side of the world, its eras and ages, more privileged than even his brothers in some regard. ( it doesn't give perspective; only fans' flames lit an eternity ago. ) still, humans did peak in one regard ... food. gluttony, a sin for sure, but with plenty of means to indulge in it. ( even the devil himself stays tempted. ) hence the burger held between his fingers. ❛ but let's not get used to callin' me chief. sheriff, maybe. not chief. ❜
lifting the top bun of his burger, features scrunch, barely managing to hide disdain. quick to rise, quick to stomp off towards the cart it came from. ❛ OI! no mustard, i said no mustard. satan in hell, man. ❜
Given your own nature, are you really the one to judge? (To Rex! From the BG3 party meme)
party banter / accepting !
touché. nanites hum as if responding to a provocation; his body is an interwoven mix of machinery and humanity, yet all himself. he raises his hands as if to ward off any further barbs hurling towards him——features slack with the faintest hint of sheepishness. guess what goes around comes around when it's a matter of judging a book by its cover. still ... compared to EVOs? this might as well have been a drop in the bucket ... sort of. long as he looks past the moving things around with their mind parts. he's trying——okay!
"okay, okay. you're right. i can make machines from my hands and you're a talking ... i wanna say ... groundhog? makes us both a little bit strange. but, really though, you're sure you're not an EVO..? never had any run ins with a guy named van kleiss? about this tall," he gestures, "big metal arm? talks a LOT about EVOs being the next step in his big, bad, evil empire?" no? no.
"thanksmanyou'realifesaver." words hurtle off his tongue like a racecar zipping around a track——all in less than a second, a picosecond, actually. "er, i mean, thanks, man. i'll be sure to cherish this burger that could've totally saved your life. minus the pickles, can't eat those." a loose grin hangs off his lips before hurrying to take the burger in question. running low on calories ... well, that's a speedster's personal hell. far as wally knows, though, he might've had it the worst. it earned him, at one point, the name 'kid mouth' rather than kid flash. least that's what dick loves to call him even to today.
plucking the top bun from the burger, he gently flicks the pickles off onto a napkin and takes his first bite. ah! delicious calories. exactly what every growing flash needs—don't fact-check that. you're hearing it from a true professional, after all. right now, wally's in heaven but really wondering if he's got enough on him to pick up a nice shake. some fries too——oh, and one of those little wildcat toys.
"so, between starving to death and crying, what exactly is there to—" a light burp. "excuse me, uh, what exactly is there to do around here? 'm a bit new to this tourist thing." sort've. long as the words stretched a bit.
@amcssing asked → “ you gonna eat that? ” wally to mark / yeah im back again ( src. / accepting. )
Like in many such prior cases with many other individuals, Mark's first instinct is to just hand over the discarded half of his burger without any complaint.
That's not what he does, though. It's not like he was going to finish it either way, but his second and more important instinct is to be really annoying about the whole situation. There are some real desperate people out there who will only let go of their hard-earned food kicking and screaming—Mark just wants to go out being a little bit of an asshole about it.
"Sorry, I just ran outta all my money and this is the last good burger I'm ever gonna get," he lies. "I mean, I guess you can take it, but I'll just starve to death after. And cry. I'll cry an' I'll starve to death about it. Is that what you want? You want me to die? Wow. What a cruel and unjust world I live in."
He leans back in his seat, offering a look halfway between judging and amused. Then he shrugs, breaking out into a smile.
"Nah, you can have it."
What if we were both doctors & shared oranges 🤨
