Caritas; Wednesday [07/10].

Tino was telling Summer all about his weekend, which sounded enough like any other weekend that Tino would tell her about that she started to become increasingly uncertain as to whether or not, from what he was telling her, he had actually been affected by the weekend at all. She tried to ask some revealing questions to help her pin it down a little more, but to no avail. Each answer seemed as frustratingly vague and uncertain as the last.

So finally, she just straight up and asked how old he was now and how old he was during the weekend, to which he just gasped and got all offended that she would even ask him something like that, and then he gave her the cold shoulder for the rest of the shift.

Which, really, was Summer preferred state of being behind the bar, so it all kind of worked out, really.

Margo shrugged. "I want to put on an epic party after a year of being out of the running," she said, grabbing the drinks.

"....what does that have to do with robbing a bank, though?" asked Summer, who was suddenly coming into a possible revelation, because ohmygod, was Margo poor this whole time?

"Unless that's the theme?" she tried hopefully.

"I need a lot of cash to make it happen...?" said Margo, who'd been cut off from her universe for a bazillionty years at this point. "You know ATMs only stock so much, right?"

Because cracking ATMs with impunity was how you generally got by as a Magician.

"Well, yeah," said Summer, "sure. I just, you know....didn't think you were at....bank robbing level at the moment."

Margo shot her a cold look that somehow also seemed like it could incinerate the entire building. "That f--" Nice airhorn work, Tino! "--in his giant concrete p--" Well timed! "...thinks he's better than me at throwing a party. He's not. He's just bored and stupid rich, so I'm gonna beat him on his turf."

And now Summer was glancing over at Tino with a furrowed brow.

"Where the fuck did he get that airhorn?" she had to wonder, followed by a much less well-time blast of it, and she shook her head, attention turning back to Margo, and tried to parse out the gaps in the rant.

"Did he actually say that to you?" she had to wonder, and not just because she was pretty sure she knew who she was talking about but not entirely sure, so it felt like a good way to sort of feel around for confirmation.

"I dared to question the amount of flowers at one of his shindigs and he told me to come back when I hosted something like it," Margo said flatly. "And bank robbery is probably preferable to me freezing a mediocre white man's balls off in his sleep."

"I feel like I could make an argument for the latter," Summer pointed out, because honestly, the world would be a much better place if more mediocre white men's balls got frozen off, although perhaps not always just in their sleep.

But then again...

"I also feel like there's a wide spectrum of options to still explore within those two margins."

"Honey, I like you and I appreciate your party game and your cocktail skills," Margo said, which was more than most people got out of her, so have your moment, Summer. "But considering," certain things they had in common that they had taken very different decisions about, "I'm going to have to pass on the life advice, okay?"
