Wm notices something's strange about the counter worker, but chooses not to comment on that and instead continues where Taco left off.
Fresh battery for a moderately-sized school bus.
The possum is a potential perpetrator; he did place possum poo in the plum pot."Oh yeah, I'm familiar with Paul. kicked his sorry ass to the curb the second he started trying to pull some shit. If he sent his friends up here... You fools got another thing comin'."
It's just then, when the worker lifts up his visor to size up the group, that his eyes widen in shocking recognition.
"Oh my god, it's you guys!" the worker says, tossing the hat aside to reveal himself as none other than myself, Afterwards.
"It's been so long, what are you guys doing out here?"
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monster...our bus' battery died just outside of town.
The possum is a potential perpetrator; he did place possum poo in the plum pot."Right, Paul did mention that... Here, lemme just ring up the items for you, free of charge. Man, he shoulda just told me he was with you guys."
I start tapping and clicking things on my computer, before heading to the back to grab the battery.
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monster"Also do you have any food? I barely got to eat because of the riot going on in there"
Ever put tea in a coffee mug? Or coffee in a tea mug?"Yeah feel free to raid the minifridge, it's right behind you," I call out from the shelves. "This is all coming out of my paycheck, so help yourselves."
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monster“Wait a minute, After, you moved to a new town and got a whole-ass job in the time it took for our bus to break down? That’s efficiency.”
HuzzahWaaaait wait wait wait, I have a concern. Won't the owner if this joint try to get us to pay up anyway?

Ever put tea in a coffee mug? Or coffee in a tea mug?"Yeah," Puma agrees with Wm. "After the burger factory, the hospital, and... I can't remember what else, we don't want more people after us for breaking the law."
He may be a giant, nightmarish brute, but like all villains in this series,he sure can sing."Don't worry, the manager's out for the day. We'll just make a run for it before he gets back. This job sucks anyways."
I lug the the battery onto the counter and slide it over to the others. "Is this what you're looking for?"
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monsterWell, I think so, but I'm not fluent in bus parts. That'd be Paul's job. Speaking of which, where is he? I didn't see him on the way in—
Just then, Paul comes back through the door, his shirt torn and his head covered in bandages and an ice pack. He sees Afters and is immediately thrown into a revenge-fueled adrenaline rage.
You! Fucking Cu—
Wm then jumps up and tries to calm Paul down.
woah woah woah there, Paul, easy, deep breaths, calm down, when you're hotter than grease, say yes to peace... Okay, the short version is, we know him.
You know that price-gouger?!
Well, it's a long story...
One recap of the entire road trip up to the burger factory later...
So he wanted to steal a pet cow?
Yup.
Damn.
A long beat passes.
Soooo, battery part?
Huh? Oh, that? He takes one quick look at it and says Yeah, that'll do.
The possum is a potential perpetrator; he did place possum poo in the plum pot.“Sick, let’s get out of here then!”
Huzzah"Your mob had better not followed us here!" Elena says as she's carrying as much food as she can
Ever put tea in a coffee mug? Or coffee in a tea mug?“Oh god damn it. ¿Ahora que?”
Huzzah"Oh shit! It's El Cabrón!! He's real!!!"
I scream and duck under the counter.
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monster"Poor guy's name is an insult..That's his actual name right?"
Ever put tea in a coffee mug? Or coffee in a tea mug?"I don't know, that's just what we call him," I say, peeking up from behind the counter. "But nobody's seen him for 77 years, and nobody's gotten close enough to ask and survived to tell the tale."
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monsterWm pulls out his pope card from last page and brandishes it yet again.
The possum is a potential perpetrator; he did place possum poo in the plum pot.I am hiding behind the counter with my legs to my chest, whispering under my breath,
"Santamaríamadredediosruegapornosotrospecadoresahorayenlahoradenuestramuerteamen"
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monster...Wm can't say he saw that one coming. So he pulls a Mulaney and shouts...
SCATTER!
And then turns to El Cabron and asks, in the entirely wrong language...
Drei minuten Vorsprung, bitte?

“Hello sir, I believe we had a companion of our’s named Paul come in here? He may or may not have attempted to haggle/tussle with a worker here? Either way, we need the engine parts he was looking for.”
