It was another night on the Strip, selling shirts at the garish stand. Derek was working alongside a co-worker tonight, who sat on the stool inside the booth, with bored eyes glued to his phone screen. The vampire stood, looking for easy marks. It was a tough crowd tonight. No one stopped or even chanced a glance his way. It was almost depressing. He turned to the teenager.
“If you can’t sell novelty items in Vegas, where can you? I don’t wanna relocate to Branson, man. It’s like here, but on Ambien.” The vampire reconsidered. “No, actually, it’s like Reno on Thorazine. You know, the drooling, the aimless shuffling, the sad vacant faces.”
The co-worker looked up at Derek, annoyed and unamused.
Derek sighed. “Yeah. Kinda like that.”
He turned back toward the sidewalk, considering calling it an early night and going out on the prowl. He was the top employee, after all, and could probably get away with it. He was interrupted from this train of thought, however, when a figure came flying at him with a colliding whump.
