>APPROACH THE USELESS DRUNK

[Which bar is this, exactly? Look, it doesn't matter. The only important quality for it to have is that it is at least somewhat clean, fairly quiet, and serves alcohol. And at the bar there is a young man with a glass of whiskey at his elbow and a tongue between his teeth, building a veritable mansion of cards.

Seriously, he must've been at it a while. There's at least three decks in this thing. He's also talking to the bar tender who appears to be ignoring him.]

Ah, how about this? If I get up to two hundred cards in this, you become so impressed that my drinks are on the on house? How's that?


>BE APPROACHED BY A USELESS DRUNK

[It's still a bar, somewhere! But now that guy, you know, the one who is definitely several drinks into his night, he was spinning idly on his bar stool while bothering the poor bartender with nagging complaints the government is coming your way. He must've gotten bored and is looking for a new place to be a nuisance.

But he's scooting over to a seat near you; across if you happen to be at a table, next to if you are at the bar. He slips his chin into his hands, smiling with what appears to be a sly, cheerful interest.]

What's your opinion, then? Is American government doing enough to make up for their "accidental" kidnappings? I'm a little amazed that they're so rude they haven't even offered a lifetime supply of whiskey.


>DO SOMETHING ELSE

[IDK man it's your prompt now]

Yo, I don't know about all your drinks, but I'd pick up another one for you if you can really get two hundred cards in there.

[Hermes was just planning on sitting at the table and nursing a beer or two, but she can't help but be a little impressed by both this guy's growing card mansion, even while drinking, and his complete inability to get the hint that the bartender wants him to shut up.]

...Maybe. I'll put like a dollar towards it.

Hey, hey, don't push your damn luck. Do I look like I'm made of money?

[Actually, compared to where she was before, she's got a job AND she's getting cash for just being here, so... yeah. But she'd still rather use it herself.]

You're about to knock it over yourself anyway, come on.

Listen, I already said you're about to knock it over, why am I gonna buy you a drink to make sure of it?

[That said, though... it would be kind of satisfying to knock it over herself.]

...But yeah, fine, you have a deal. Here, give me a card.

[She holds out her hand for one off the top of the deck.]

Finish building it and I'll knock it over, but I want a card first.

I want to hate you on principal for this waste of time, but honestly I'm too impressed.
