A Mundane Geezer One Shot




You're Geezer, professional duelist and part-time knight. You and a old friend from a theatrics have decided to meet up at a shopping center, both to talk buisness and catch up a little. You wish you both kept in contact more than you did and you know it's on you to a degree but he doesn't seem to mind this. 

Geezer: How about this one?

Snipe: Uh, hard to gauge, try it on yeah?

You pull down a rather expensive coat from a rack and waste no time getting it on. You struggle a bit snapping the buttons down.

Snipe: Not like that..... you need help?

Geezer: No I got this. 

Snipe: Make sure you don't got anything overlapping, you wanna hear a proper click.

Geezer: Hold up....

The buttons connect successfully.

Geezer: There we go. 

Snipe: Kinda like that. What's the tag say?

Geezer: Uh..... I mean I just got a big check so I could...

He sees the triple digit pricing on the coat.

Snipe: Shit, you really wanna drop that much? That's a investment.

Geezer: Maybe, you think it looks good?

Snipe: It looks good, don't get me wrong! Sure ain't a week's paycheck good though.

Geezer: I got a bonus but.... yeah that might be much for what it is. 

Snipe: I mean it's up to you, your money right?

Geezer: Guess so. I got time.

Snipe: You got time! 

You pull off the coat and place it back on its proper rack. 

Geezer: So uh, how's working at Capital been?

Snipe: I mean it is! It's work. Honestly wish I was doing more than stunt shows but...

Geezer: But it puts food on the table.

Snipe: Yeah, that's really all there is to say on it. Ah well, still too early to say I'll never touch the big screen right?

Geezer: You wanna be in the movies?

Snipe: So bad man, at this point I don't care if I'm the lead or not. Just want that breakout role.

Geezer: Nobody at your job got the hookup for a audition?

Snipe: I mean I'm doing one later this month but... I just wanna have my name on a poster you know? Go out there, do good work, maybe be a household name by my mid 30s. Like... you think I've got a shot, right? You've seen me in action.

Geezer: I mean yeah, you put in a lot of work. Better than I did in class. Hey how's this one?

You zip on another coat.

Snipe: That's kinda nice actually. 

Geezer: Could rock this maybe. 

Snipe: Nah, yeah. Tag?

Geezer: It's in the budget range, no worries.

Snipe: I wanna see.

He pokes around for the tag dangling from behind. 

Snipe: Do it, hellava bargain. Seen these go for way more. 

Geezer: Yeah?

Snipe: Yeah. Hey so uh... I got a question.

Geezer: Go for it.

Snipe: I heard a tip that you're gonna put on a show at the park yourself yeah? Not just a lot of yadayada?

Geezer: Yep, a duel actually. Actually why I called you up to begin with, didn't wanna pop in and then have to tell you "Yeah I'm just here on business."

Snipe: If you wanna hang out I'm down you know? You don't gotta wait for a occasion.

Geezer: Yeah, sorry about that. 

Snipe: Don't sweat it, you're all g. Hey, you wrapped up here yet? Getting kinda hungry.

Geezer: Yeah, think so. Not seeing anything else in my price range that I'm liking too much.

Snipe: Cool, take to the register. Dying for some late brek right now. You feel me?

Geezer: You got money? If not I can cover you.

Snipe: I got cash, don't sweat it bro. 

Geezer: You wanna go up ahead?

Snipe: I'll wait on you I think. Don't take long.

Geezer: I won't.
