[ACTION because I felt like it.]

[During Asch's shift at Good Spirits today, there's a decidedly underaged and unchaperoned young lady settling at the bar. She sets a miniature ox on the stool beside her and waits patiently to gather his attention.

This guy's not Buffy and he's not Jack. that means he's got to be Asch right?]

[ACTION] jksdhfjskdfdf

[dissonates]

[It doesn't take long for Asch to give her some attention; children in the bar are rare enough, but it's not often when animals are in here. He lifts a brow at her (and her cow thing), resisting the urge to be snippy and instead goes for the vaguely polite approach. Buffy would be so proud.]

...Can I... help you?

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

Nope! [Well she certainly sounds happy enough to be hanging out in a sen of sin and villainy.]

I'm here to help you. Jack said you were sad.

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

[...Oh. Jack. He's so helpful, isn't he.

Honestly, he's not sure whether to be more annoyed or just surprised. He didn't think the man cared enough to mention it to someone else.]

I'm not... sad. I was just having a bad day.

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

[Oh, Jack cared all right. He cared enough to mention it to everyone else.]

Jack says you could use a good and proper fucking. So I brought Ben to give you one!

[A gesture to the ox. Isn't he precious?]

WHAT

WHAT THE HELL HAS JACK BEEN TELLING PEOPLE]

I don't- you shouldn't be- that isn't-

[SPLUTTER]

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

What the hell does that bastard think he's doing!?

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

[Normally, Clementine would take great and tremendous issue to that swear word there. But ohgod volume. She shrinks back until she nearly falls off her stool.

Please don't be mad. Ohgod is he going to pull out a gun?]

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

[No gun, but his expression sort of makes it seem like he's going to start spitting fire any second.]

You can tell him that I'm not so desperate that I'm going to sleep with a cow!!

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

[She huddles at the edge of the stool, prepared to drop down and break into a run if necessary.]

That's not what I said..! It's not sleeping.. Just a good and proper fucking. You know. Like from Jack's world?

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

[.....]

Did he even explain to you what that word means?

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

Yes.

It's like a hug. But better.

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

[Oh for god's sake.]

It's nothing like a hug. It means having sex.

[Something he is absolutely not doing with a goddamn cow.]

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

[ . . . ]

Oh.




[Yeah she's been a fairly sheltered kid. She doesn't have a frame of reference for the whole 'sex' thing.]

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

[...Does she not understand that, either? Ugh, seriously? Well, it's not his responsibility to give some random kid sex education.]

Geez, just ask an adult. Someone who isn't that blond idiot.

Anyway, the answer is no.

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

Oh. Okay.


[She lifts up the ox by his front hooves anyway though.]

But. Maybe you should give Ben a hug anyway? It might make you feel better.

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

[Ugh, just when he thought he'd be rid of her.]

I seriously doubt that.

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

How can you know if you don't try it?

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

I'll know, alright? And I have no desire to smell like someone else's weirdly-coloured livestock.

Re: [ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

[Hey. HEY.]

Ben just had a bath today! He doesn't smell!

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

[Fine then he smells like bathed cow 8( Though there is mercifully not the scent of farm stinking up the bar right now, he'll give her that.]

...Whatever. I'm still not hugging him.

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

Just try it! Are you scared he'll hurt you?

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

I'm not scared!!

[ACTION]

[smallsurvivor]

Then you can prove it by giving Ben a hug.

[ACTION]

[dissonates]

Like hell. I don't have to prove anything to anyone. Now hurry up and go home! Little kids shouldn't be in a bar.
