"Thank God," Beth muttered, looking from the boy to Ershey again. "He wants a smoke," she concluded, her narrow-eyed gaze finally settling on the boy. "Ain't got one. Go away."

"Touuchyyyy," Copper commented with a laugh. "Sorry to offend, love," he added, though he didn't quite mean it. What'd he do, anyway?

"Yeah, welcome to the worst perpetual bad mood this side of the bloody Atlantic. And don't call me 'love'," she growled. A year in London and she still couldn't stand it.

Copper squinted at the girl on the couch, then looked up to the ceiling thoughtfully.
"Might wanna do a little self-maintenance, Miss. ((Lol his girl-version of "buddy")) Sounds like ya got dirt in yer ring and it's making ye irritated."

"That must be it. What a brilliant observation. Go away."

((Hahaha in Irish slang... Ring = Vagina idk if you picked up on that.))
"I live here!" he said, glaring at her now.

((Haha, I did! Beth + sexual innuendo = sarcastic and dismissive.))
"Well, so do I now, God help me! So why don't you go up to your bunkroom, that you live in, and sleep it off like a good drunk and leave us alone?" She was starting to hope Ershey would say something before this got any uglier. Seeing as they both knew how ugly her everyday social encounters could get.

"Oh, sweet innocent thing," Copper laughed. "I'm not drunk. My lady friend spilled her drink on me. I'm high as fuck, though."

"Oh, excellent. If you're also on a self-destructive tailspin of grief and like to throttle people, you'll be an old friend reincarnated."

"You're awfully quick to judge," Copper observed. "Nothing to do with grief or self-destruction. Believe it or not, getting high just feels good, it doesn't destroy me, nor give me the energy to get in fights. Again, you talk big, Miss. But you don't seem to know shit."

She closed her eyes in despair. "I'm not trying to analyze your deep emotional motives for getting high. I'm being bitter and sarcastic so you. Will go. Away."

"No deep emotional motives. I just like how it feels," he shrugged, grinning. "And I'm more likely to respond to politeness," he hinted.

"Then go meet someone polite," she suggested helpfully.
((Haha, I can just picture poor Ershey miserably watching this whole conversation. Should we hold for her?))

((AAH SORRY I'M HERE!))
Ershey couldn't help but simply watch the two as they exchanged remarks. She hadn't met the other newsie before either, so she was just as lost as Macbeth. Once she realized the two took a pause in their banter, Ershey cleared her throat and looked at Macbeth.
"Well," she said smirking, "Welcome back to Manhattan, Beth. Here's hopin' that it won't be as crazy as the last time I saw you."
