"That's a shitty name, Pim."

Pim frowned in response to Y/N's remark. "Don't say that! See-- here at smiling friends, the most important part in making clients smile is having a cheery demeanor yourself! Try it! Say, 'YIPPEE!'"

"No."

"YIPPEE!"

"Shut the fuck up, Pim."

The two turned to see a new face standing outside the door they were approaching. They stopped walking and Pim gasped excitedly.

"Charlie! We were just coming to say hello to you! Meet our newest coworker, Y/N! She came along with me to make you HAPPY!!!!"

Charlie shoved his hands in his pockets awkwardly. "Shit, Pim, you know I only called in so you'd play Shy Ghouls 3 with me. I-I never really... needed cheering up."

"O-oh..."

"Y'know what I mean? Like..." He let out a short laugh. "I'm not the--the cheering up sorta guy. Like--well, obviously, you know, I cheer people up. But I'm not the sort--I'm not the sort that needs those types of things. Pim." Charlie motioned towards Y/N lazily. "U-uh... she--nice to meet you, by the way, 'm Charlie."

Y/N nodded. "Nice... to meet you too, I guess..."

"Y'know, Pim, she can join us too, I guess. But... I'm all good." Charlie put his arms out. Y/N's fingers twitched for the gun in its satchel beneath her shorts. "See? I'm comin' out over my sickness, I'm... I just got the sniffles now. Nothin' took bad, maybe just a dry cough. Or two. But we can all go play video games, you get a day of free pay... not to disrespect the boss, but I think you deserve it a little, you know what I mean? You, too, new guy."

Y/N cringed. Pim glanced between the two of them, his hand to his mouth in thought. "You... you think so? I-I don't know, Charlie, it doesn't sound like the greatest idea..."

Y/N was totally on board. She got to sit in Charlie's apartment, the place he was most vulnerable, while him and Pim played videogames. And while they weren't looking---

POW POW POW

Pim, Charlie, and Y/N ducked down, covering their heads. "HOLY CHEESE, CHARLIE, WHAT WAS THAT?" Pim cried.

Charlie looked around frantically. "I-I-I--sometimes my neighbors get into fights, I--I don't know, Pim, I-I-"

"FIGHTS?" Y/N cried. "THOSE ARE 9MM HOLLOW POINT ROUNDS!"

"I TOLD YOU, CHEAT ON ME ONE MORE TIME...!"

"DON'T YOU YELL AT ME WOMAN!"

BOOM

Charlie cried out. "Holy shit I think that was a mortar--that might--that might have been a mortar--that--that's not good right? Those things--those aren't good."
