*Waking up under a floral print bedspread, Sniper went to the closet without much thought, ignoring the woman who was sleeping on the other side of it. He put on his BLU shirt, his hat, slung his bow over his shoulder before...*

Alroight, if this is some kind of joke, it sure as hell ain't funny. This had better not be what it looks like. Because if I'm back in this troppo place there's gonna be hell t' pay.

Truckie? Crowley? Spy? Either of ya spooks? Anyone wanna let me in on why I'm back in this blasted nightmare of a town?

Action in front of 625 Topper Street

Where th' bloody hell is my camper!?!

*And he's just storming around yelling as if that'll make his Land Rover miraculously appear out of nowhere.*

It's been pretty quiet actually. Nothing really bad has been happening. The zombies were a regain for someone, but the town itself hasn't done anything dangerous. We just had silly flowers on Valentine's Day, and then everyone got mixed up memories, but it wasn't too bad.

Someone regained zombies? Strewth that's awful.

It's probably the calm before th' storm an' now that I'm here all our houses will fall down or something.

[forgotten_titan]

People come all the time; I don't think the town is going to go all apocalypse on us just because you came back. That would be waaaay too much like Mega Apocalypse of the Dead 4.

Way too .. th' what now?

[forgotten_titan]

Mega Apocalypse of the Dead 4. You know, the coolest movie of the year? There's this group of kids and they have to survive a horde of zombies that brought the end of the world! It's a great movie!

Back up here.

1968. I ain't been t' the cinema in about 10 years anyway.

[forgotten_titan]

Oh. Whoops. Sorry about that.

[There's an awkward silence as she finishes off the last of her toast. Now that the important stuff was done and over with, there really isn't much left for her to say to him. She picks up the plate and heads to the sink, washing it to buy her some time to think.]

*He gazes thoughtfully into his coffee mug for a moment.*

There even a movie theater here?

[forgotten_titan]

Yeah. It shows all these ch-, I mean, 1950s movies there. You could go and watch something.

[bye_to_yer_head]

I just might. Considerin' how much free time I have in this place t' do nothin'. Though I heard there was a shootin' range now.

*He actually looks marginally cheerful about that.*

[forgotten_titan]

[He had to bring back up that whole shooting people for a living thing, did he? She's still uncomfortable with it, but she's not going to say anything.

With the dishes done, she glances quickly at the clock; time to go to school.]

Anyway, I gotta go to school. I guess...I'll see you later?

[bye_to_yer_head]

Sure will.

An' .. thanks. Fer th' coffee.

*He gives her a small salute with the mug in his hand.*

[forgotten_titan]

[She had not seen that coming. Blinking, she gives him a nervous smile in return.

N-no problem.

[He was still a murderer, she mused. But at least he had some manners. Maybe they just got off on the wrong foot last time. Whatever it was, at least it looks like things will be less tumultuous between them. For now.]
