Old Ways – Gargleblaster Microstories #209

Posted on April 15, 2015 by EagleAye

Malika desired giving up the Old Ways to be normal.

She opened a restaurant.

Then the last drunken customer of the night grabbed her butt. “What’ll be the main course?” he grinned salaciously.

Normal be damned!

Malika bared her fangs. “Marinated Human!”

    I think the Old Way is fresh humans, so “marinated” is still progress. 🙂

    You could say he got his just desserts 😉
    My daughter worked in Lone Star while putting herself through university. She had a table of four do a runner one night. They didn’t get far, she took off after them and they were caught between her and the security guard at the entrance to the casino (across the road). She returned to the restaurant with the money for the bill (and a tip) to the applause of the other diners.

      Haha! Oh, yes he did. That’s a really funny story about your daughter. Good on her! She really must know how to intimidate wayward customers if she came back with a tip as well. I see you raised her well. 😉
