'E-cigs'?

You gotta be fuckin' kidding.

Electronic chargers like umbilical cords...how many things can a person be plugged into at once.

Just don't get me fuckin' started on vapes, brother.

[sniktt]

Guess it depends how many holes they got ready and willing.

You sound like you're hopin' I'll get you started.

[littlepriest]

[ Rust's face relaxes just enough to allow something amused to come through, eyes narrowing and lips stretching into a modest smile that looks almost thoughtful. You know, despite what it seems, Rust is kind of always looking for someone to get him started. ]

Are we still talkin' about the same thing?

whispers don't

[sniktt]

[Not to sound repetitive, but: you gotta be fuckin' kidding.

Even Logan's cigar looks unamused.]

I fucking hope so, bub.

[littlepriest]

Sorry, man... Just making sure we're still on the same page. [ Since you turned Rust's metaphor to freaking nightmare fuel, then managed to sound suggestive. Rust can't tell if he's being hit on or threatened. ]

And it's really not worth bitching about vapes. I'd be here all fuckin' night, and well, this is a bar, not a lecture hall.

[ Oh yeah, this is a bar setting now. Rust taps his cigarette into a plastic ash tray, shoulders hunched over elbows planted into the wood counter top. It's also a smoking-is-cool bar because heck it. ]

who let either of us on the internet

[sniktt]

[Logan makes a noise in agreement. Or, it's likely agreement, but it's a monosyllable grunt that's made towards the bartop and not Rust's actual direction, so it's anyone's guess. Let's just hope the narrator made it sufficiently clear so there's no actual confusion.

Something in Logan's face goes distant at the mention of lecture halls. He squints across the bar.]

Thank fuck for that. Had enough kids crawling around my ankles lately.

[littlepriest]

[ It's difficult to determine whether or not this guy's speaking figuratively, or literally. Rust looks over at him with a discerning gaze, one brow arching up in the man's direction.

Rust pulls in another lungful of smoke. ] Unless you're telling me you're some kinda day care teacher, I'm gonna need to question you on the context of that. [ But please, make his day, if that's where this is going. ]

[sniktt]

[Alright. Fine, you got him. Logan makes eye contact right back, eventually turning to breathe out smoke with a slow smile.]

Yeah. Somethin' like that. [There's teeth in that smile, cigar temporarily held away from his mouth.

It fades on its own in heartbeats, though, a shrug ending in one of his elbows on the bartop.]

Taking the weekend off, though.

What on Earth will they think up next?

[strikingblue]

[Shadow near the ceiling asks]

Looking for someting dhe Professor von't mind in dhe house?

[Yes, Kurt is poking fun at you Logan. It's what he does.]

[earth_shatter]

I hear they're healthier for you.

[verpissdich]

[Smirk.]

You mean those electric cigarettes that're blowing up in people's faces. Yeah, great idea, aren't they?

[atombomb]

I wonder how long it'll be before they decide these things are worse than a real cigarette. Just about everything gives you cancer these days.

[sniktt]

[Did Logan ask for this, though? Did he? All he wants is to be left alone. To complain about his fruitless online shopping in peace.]

Might just need to move out, at this rate.

gotta admit i assumed this was an avalanche with a new pb, but hello oc!

[sniktt]

I'm not smokin' for the health benefits.

[sniktt]

I'd say it's the dumbest suggestion I've heard all week, but I don't want anyone feeling challenged.

i appreciate your bio summary so much

[sniktt]

Don't know about cancer, but they're sure as hell worse than real cigarettes.

Felt like I was sucking on an empty tube.

I didn't even consider the similarities tbh

[earth_shatter]

There are no health benefits to smoking. Only risks. Which most people can get.

[verpissdich]

[That was not a snort.] Don't understand why people are trying to find replacements for smoking. Just smoke already.

[strikingblue]

[Ah, but misery loves company. Especially a blue mutant prankster sort of company. Nightcrawler drops down agilely into the light, trying not to look amused.]

Perhaps dhe special mutant school next door vould be bettar?

ah thank youuu~

[atombomb]

To their credit, though, they do smell a whole lot better.

How did you even get your hands on an e-cigarette? You didn't confiscate that off of one of the kids, did you?
