'duude~ guess what? i heard they're /still/ talking about the way i quit!'
Hazel bounced over to Green viridian eyes flashed to her amused expression before alighting back to the cards in his hands whereas amber eyes flickered between the two of them across the table as though following an invisible string before he, too, returned to the game of Uno
'pfft- they're still on about that? it's been what, months now?
you're turn'
her head bobbed, small smirk growing 'yeah,
and also,
my sister quit just the other day an' my friend- you know 'er-
had already put in her two week notice and her last day is tomorrow,
well they tol' me tha'at least three other people'd quit the job,
'-Uno.-'
an' even the /trainer who started up this entire branch is looking into another one/-!
an' the supervisor is as well,
an' that the leads'oo never do'any work actually /have/ tuh now that there's'onestly a shortage o' workers (not that there hadn't been already),
plus overtime galore since there's literally no one else-!'
'Uno! let's see you beat THAT!' Green gloated [he had slapped down three plus two's] to Red,
whose eyes glinted in the lamp light before setting down a skip, two reverses, another skip, and two plus four wild cards in quick succession,
calling out his own Uno and the color yellow his opponent's jaw tensed as he drew the cards,
slapping down a yellow and red seven,
daring Red to lay down his final card .
'...'
a gloved hand reached for the deck,
face unmoving at the 'Yes!' across from him Hazel began to slowly back away into the kitchen,
freezing as Red glanced at her while placing a red zero onto the steadily growing stack
'..uh. i'm just,
gonna go now..?' she points towards the living room's couch where Pika and Vee lay, sliding behind and down the kitchen wall until he could only see a stray curl
'Can you get us some drinks?'
the curl agreed
