You get used to them, plus they're great for fights.

Oh yeah.
Here.

[She digs into her other pocket and pulls out a lighter and flicks a flame for him.]

I'm Roxy.

[nomorefear]

Not for making fists, that's for fucking sure.

[He's not actually a smoker, so after the first two drags which leave him lightheaded, he hands it over to her.]

Is this where I'm supposed to say 'Nice to meet you?'

[gravity_grrl]

No but they're great for scratching. In fights and on scalps.

[She takes it back and takes a long drag on it.]

Nah, you ain't gotta say that.

[nomorefear]

I'm not really a scratcher.

Good, cause that's not really my thing.

[gravity_grrl]

Your ever had your scalp scratched? Like all nice and gentle?

I kind of figured.
So does this Gotham place have any other weird things in it?

[nomorefear]

No.

A lot of weird things. You ever watch the news?

[gravity_grrl]

Aw you're missing out, it's like when you go to the salon and they wash your hair and dig in real deep.

Nah not really.

[nomorefear]

They dig their nails into our head?

Fine, do you read news on Twitter?

[gravity_grrl]

No, but it's like that feeling y'know? A nice deep scritching.

Uhhhh no. I'm not on Twitter, I mostly stick to Instagram or Tiktok.

[nomorefear]

I guess?

Same fucking difference, then. I'm sure Gotham's on there too. The city's viral at least once a week.

[gravity_grrl]

C'mere. I'll show you.

It might be but my stuff is pretty curated to really only be cute cats, fashion, nails and more cute cats.

[nomorefear]

No thanks.

So you shut out the problems of the world and focus on cats and nails. That's definitely one way to do it.

[gravity_grrl]

Fiiiiiiiiiine.

Hey I deal with heavy shit all the time, when I go on my phone I want cute distractions. I have that right.

[nomorefear]

You can't just go around scratching random stranger's heads, dude.

Never said you didn't. I said, that's one way to do it.

[gravity_grrl]

Yeah but yer not a stranger anymore. [She counters with a grin and stubs out her cigarette.]

What do you look at online when yer stressed? Let me guess.....cooking videos?

[nomorefear]

You don't really know shit about me. I could be a killer.

...I do not. I listen to music.

[gravity_grrl]

Yeah and so could I.

Ooooooooooh what kind of music?

[nomorefear]

Exactly my fucking point. Not gonna let some killer dig their nails into my head.

Metal, rock. Mellow shit. Whatever I'm in the mood for.

[gravity_grrl]

Omg it's not digging my nails in but fine. I see yer point.

[She sticks her tongue out at him.]

Mellow shit? Like easy listening old people stuff?

[nomorefear]

Finally.

[What is she, twelve?]

No, like bands that play mellow songs. What, do you not listen to music either? Only cat videos for you?

[gravity_grrl]

Omg of course I listen to music, I'm asking what kind of mellow? That's a real broad term. C'mon, give me specifics!

[nomorefear]

Sounds like you don't when you bring up old people shit. I dunno, like The Weeknd.

[gravity_grrl]

Fuck yeah, The Weekend is awesome.

[nomorefear]

Exactly.
