[ It's rude, but Alex can't help but snort lightly. ]
Oh, that it? It's just a word, bud. [ Alex almost says man but finds himself unsure...and that's a can of worms for another day. Okay, that minor crisis averted. He leans against a counter in the pharmacy, feeling a little mentally spent. And, if his slightly shaking hands are any indication, physically as well.
(Damn, he was hoping that was going to run its course soon. Nerve damage, the doctors said, unpredictable, the doctors said, yeah, well apparently not even death can solve some things.) ]
Still, I... I'd drink to that. [ Uncertainly, at first, but he follows with a nod. It's bad. Drinking the happy juice of Wonderland, in retrospect, was bad. Any levity he gained was cheap, cheated, false. Now it just feels empty and poison. ] ...The hell even is this stuff? You got any...clerical insight?
