why ask me a question if you're just going to answer it in the next breath?

[ So she doesn't have to answer, perfect. ]

because of my winning personality, obviously.

[pinch_hitter]

HAHA yeah right no really

[polemical]

go fuck yourself, harrington, i am a DELIGHT.

[pinch_hitter]

Joel is possibly the coolest guy in this entire town and you're telling me that he hangs out with you because you're a delight.

[polemical]

hahaha i'm gonna tell him you said that. you think joel miller is COOL? okay.

[ Like she doesn't hang on every word that comes out of that man's mouth. Look. It's different, okay, shut up. ]

and yes. that's exactly what i'm telling you.

[pinch_hitter]

What do I care? I don't care. Yeah I think he's cool but obviously you're a knock on his record.

[polemical]

okay that's great to know. i will definitely tell him. i'll tell him you said that, too.

[pinch_hitter]

Munson

Munson listen don't actually tell him that. Obviously why would you do that. You don't need to do that.

[polemical]

not so cool and collected when i'm calling your bluff, are you?

[pinch_hitter]

You know

You're a mean person. A very mean person.

[polemical]

you're just sensitive because you're sheltered and grew up without having to share your bed with a raccoon like the rest of us.

[pinch_hitter]

Holy shit did you have to share your bed with a raccoon?

People didn't have to do that. You're lying.

But if you're not that would be awful they're like really aggressive.

[polemical]

you're also really gullible, aren't you.

no. i never slept beside a raccoon.

some did get in our kitchen once but we convinced them to leave.

[ Wayne chased them out and refused to let Eddie adopt one before he boarded up the hole they crawled in through. ]

[pinch_hitter]

you know what forget it. I'll find someone on my own to help me with my munitions.

[polemical]

first it was the phallic imagery of the baseball bat, now you're talking about munitions??

did you break your hand or something?

[pinch_hitter]

WHY ARE YOU SPEAKING IN TONGUES

[polemical]

i'm making another dick joke, don't mind me.

[ Is it tempting to make fun of Steve? Of course it is. And she's not good at resisting temptation. But despite what he says, she's not actually mean, and Steve's still new in town and he's had a rough go of it lately.

She's been recuperating in warmth and safety for months. She can afford to be kind. Ish. ]

i can't help with bullets and shit, you gotta talk to maria miller about getting on patrol duty and they'll make you pass a test first, but the baseball bat i can probably swing. metaphorically. i've never swung an actual bat in my life.

[ Random pieces of wood or pipe? Yes. An actual baseball bat? No. ]

[pinch_hitter]

Thanks for clarifying nothing but your own sick mind, Munson.

Munitions isn't just bullets. It's like... equipment and stuff. Weapons. Storage.

You'll have to do more than metaphorically swing it. It's gotta be weighted and shit. You think Byers and I got here by luck? No. It was a baseball bat.

[polemical]

you're just an easy target, harrington.

alright sun tzu slow your roll i was trying to be nice. fine. my point still stands, though, you gotta pass a physical and shit before you're put on patrol. but that can be dealt with later after we get you your incredibly specific piece of wood.

jeez. you're worse than my uncle ever was about this shit.

[pinch_hitter]

Obviously I'm not an easy target or I wouldn't have made it this far.

Second how the hell did I end up in the same town as you.

Also who said I wanted to patrol?

And what, your uncle liked baseball?

[polemical]

jesus christ, we get it, you're very tough and heroic. nobody's disputing that. relax.

don't ask me that, you're the one who followed me here. i found jackson first.

forgive me for my incredibly obvious assumption.

yes. and that's all i'm going to say on the matter so it's time to change the subject.

[pinch_hitter]

You need to loosen up. Jeez.

[polemical]

no.

[pinch_hitter]

Uh

YES

[Take that!]

[polemical]

no.

look. do you want my help or not?
