Melody sips her drink, calmly nodding and smiling, and speaks quietly out of the corner of her mouth to Priz. "Just smile and nod, smile and nod. It's the safest thing to do. Who knows how long they've been off their medication, right?"
Using a foot, she swings the kitchen door open a crack, peering into the gloom beyond. "ValJon! Order up! Where's my burgers, man?" Soft scraping noises come from the vicinity of the grill, and a few moments later a plate is deposited on the warming sill. Melody takes it gingerly, and slides it across the bar to Priz.
The bun is toasty, the lettuce crisp ... all in all it looks remakably like a cheeseburger one might find at some upscale fast food franchise where the waiters have those annoying suspenders covered by funny "flare" ...
She sighs and rolls the baubles around on the bar, shaking her head. "Guys, the jewels are cool an' all , but I don't think the boyfriend would like it much if I took jewelry from other guys, you dig? It'd be much more helpful if you'd just ... fix what you break, you know?" She gives them both a dimpled smile. "There's construction stuff all over, and Vito, if you could make us another decent bridge to the next building over, that'd really be great..."
