AFTER-ICE-CREAM-PARTY

[pecker]

[Boy everyone is so bloodthirsty tonight. And now a kid is dead and another is gonna execute. Do y'all need some baskin robbins, because it seems like you do!!! So before everyone can leave, Niwatori raises her voice louder than it's gone before now to draw a little attention, and then deflates immediately when she actually gets it.]

Excuse me, please! U-um... this case was really hard, and I think we could all use some time to cool our heads before we finally go back. So... ice cream? Who's with me?

[she'll lead the pack there and anyone else can go home or to visit Clarisse on the set of Orange is the new Black.

Niwa's not that good of a host though, she just gets her own ice cream and lets everyone serve themselves. Who is she to limit your freedom. (Someone who doesn't want to be partly responsible for a Millium Monstrosity, that's who.)]

Ugh. So, an asshole who’s also too stupid to realize when you’re firing back? Truly the worst of both worlds.

[Jughead suffers.]

[From the cradle to the grave.]

Sometimes he has it in him to get enough that he wants to punch me for it. I’ll take what I can get.

[robitussin]

...See, if it were me I'd absolutely punch back, but I don't think that's very useful advice.

[burgerprince]

Well, I've done it before.

[It was great.]

[robitussin]

[There's a grin at that.]

On a scale of one to ten, how satisfying was it?

[burgerprince]

In the moment, I’d give it a ten. Afterwards...

[A pensive head tilt.]

A four.

[robitussin]

[At that, she frowns.]

I'm guessing he punched back?

[burgerprince]

Nah.

[He cringes.]

My dad was there.
