Presley takes the vape—or, really, he takes a copy of the vape, which glows gold as he shakes it in Mary Grace's face. And suddenly, everything's moving again, everything going topsy turvy as Ducky and Hermes collide, both of them somersaulting into the dirt.
“DUCKY! And—Hermes! Sorry, shit, did she hurt you?” Richard Pompel shouts, jogging toward the two of them. He offers a hand to help Hermes up, but Ducky is already trying to scramble away again, just fucking stoked on the idea of digging up some mandrakes right now.
“Just my pride,” Hermes grunts and takes Pompel’s hand. “And also my coat. Is there a tailor in town?”
“Maybe not a tailor, but I bet you could trade a Morgenstern for a—DUCKY, not the mandrakes again!” Aaaand he’s off again, scrambling after his rambunctious baby before she can piss off his business partner better than he ever could. As Hermes brushes the mud off his sleeves, a huge metal tub of water just behind him glows blue at the edges. Just below the water, Peckenpaugh awaits, so take a dip.
