One ka-mai in the bar with coffee and a thoughtful look on his face. Have at.


[Summary: Cuthbert talks about Cort's visit to the bar with Roland, who seems a bit disappointed that Bert didn't get hit, with Lilly, who finds the idea of apprentice gunslingers having to prove their manhood by beating Cort up and taking his stick amusing, I can't imagine why, and with Susan, with whom he is angstily nostalgic about Gilead.]

Lilly pats him on the head cheerfully.

"Relax, Koosh, he didn't seem to mind. We actually had a great conversation once I found out we had friends in common."

Lilly shrugs.

"Well, not you guys. You were his students, and apparently some of you," and she pauses to grin at him, "were not the best students you could be."

Lilly tilts her head.

"I don't know, if he could figure out you were making faces by the reflection in another student's eyes, it doesn't sound like he was in any danger of getting rusty to me."

"Oh, of course," Lilly replies, smirking. "We actually had a really good chat, me and Cort."

Lilly blinks.

"Were you supposed to kick his ass when you graduated or something? Because I think that is a tradition that my high school was totally missing out on."

"I wasn't sure," Lilly says. "I thought maybe someone had told him that chicks dig scars and he decided that meant the more scars the more chicks."

Lilly tries desperately to stifle giggles for at least ten seconds before she gives up entirely.

"Ohhhhh, that kind of 'trial,'" she says in between gigglefits. "Why didn't you say? I understand so much more about you guys now."

"Kinda like the ancient Greeks?" Lilly asks innocently before collapsing into giggles again.

"Ancient Greeks," Lilly says. "Founders of my type of civilization, full of wise men... who liked the company of beardless boys, but that's incidental really."

Lilly looks at him, all innocent and blonde.

"What do you mean, Koosh? I shouldn't think about ancient traditions?"

Lilly grins.

"Would you believe attempting to respect your traditions no matter how giggle-inducing they might be?"
