I looked around the smoky bar, scanning the wide array of seedy customers who were patronizing the place. It wasn't long before I saw the occasional odd glance my way; some of them didn't look too friendly. Maybe it was my gold turban. Maybe it was my rather ratty coat. Perhaps it was my lack of pants.
A little bar floozy waltzed up to me, whispering in my ear, "It's because you're narrating out loud. We can all hear you."
"Shut up and give me some sugar, Trixie!" I said, grabbing her in a tight embrace, getting set to plant one on her.
A slap was all I got for my trouble. "You called me a floozy a second ago!" she said, her eyes afire. "But...uhh...you really weren't kidding about not wearing pants, were you?"
"Noone's ever given me a pair, no matter how many favors I do," I coolly protested.
"You could always go to the Sears store and buy some," she told me.
"You're one crazy dame," I responded, smacking her on the behind for good measure. I was pretty sure that was the sort of thing women liked.
I got another slap for my trouble. Apparently, this was NOT the sort of thing women liked.
"You're still narrating," she said, "It's not even eight a.m.; are you drunk already?"
"Listen up, all you gumshoes and....errr...gumsandals, and...errr..gum barefoot people and whatnot!" I yelled to the bar patrons. "I'm only gonna say this once today! 9th Circle of Heck Agency is hiring any lowlife, high life, or middle-life out there with a private dick license." I giggled a bit, and debated making a comment to the floozy, but decided against it. Three times is a charm, but not where face-slapping is concerned, I don't think.
"There's untold fame and wealth in it for any of you who've got the gumption to join me. And oh yes, cash bonuses for successes in treasure hunts. Any of you interested?"
