Who would've thought Helena Pierce survived a bullet to head and still continued her work to get people to the safety of Sanctuary. Despite her triumph over death, she had to account for another gruesome looking scar and relentless headaches. This time men were avoiding her not because of the wedding band, but the large metal plate welded on the back of her head and an eye patch. The eye patch was fine, but the metal plate was hard to ignore. Helena was too proud to wear a hat, so she wasn't helping her situation.
"A beanie wouldn't hurt, doll." Moxxi tells the hard working widow, as she pours her another drink to down out her headache.
"It's fine. I've said it many times before, I still love my late husband and it's thanks to my new scar that men keep their distance." Helena says with an exhausted expression.
"I have to admit, it's quite the beauty mark."
"Keep your sarcasm to yourself. Your ex-boyfriend did this to me."
"Which one? Anyway, it looks like you're errand boy has returned." said Moxxi, motioning towards Zer0 walking through the doorway.
"Ah, good work, here's your reward." Helena says as she hands him some cash.
Zer0 - $
"Most Appreciated." Zer0 tells her before taking a sit next to her.
"What''ll you have, sugar?" Moxxi asks, slightly taken aback since he's always the odd man out when it comes to drinks and food.
Zer0 shrugs his shoulders while showing IDK on his visor.
"Then let me hook you up with my special." said Moxxi, fixing up a potent alcoholic beverage for the Vault Hunter.
"Here' your Moxxi's Special Badass Pandora's Box... and straw." Moxxi presents a glass cup that was in the shape of a cube. Inside was a crimson liquid accompanied by an ominous red glow, tasty!
Zer0 takes his cup and raises it towards Helena, hoping she would do the same. Helena was hesitant, but leaving the assassin hanging would be rude.
"Yes, yes, cheers." Helena says, clinking her whiskey glass with whatever Zer0 had.
Zer0 - :)
Once she took a sip, Helena looks over to watch Zer0 insert the straw under his helmet. "Weird" was all she could think. Realizing that Zer0 drank Moxxi's concoction in one go, she witnesses him slowly sway back and forth.
Zer0 - XD
"Are you gonna be okay, Zer0?" Helena asks, slightly laughing with her question.
"I think he's happy. Right, lover boy?" Moxxi says, grasping his helmet and making a kissy face.
Zer0 - ;3
"See." said Moxxi before releasing him.
"Shadows and ice melt/Beauty revealed by the sun/Scars are so sexy" Zer0 slurs and wrapping his arm around Helena who jumps at the sudden contact.
Zer0 - (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
"Nope, not happening." Helena tells him, placing a hand on his visor to stop him.
"That's too bad, sugar." Moxxi tells Zer0.
Zer0 - ):く
"Cool your jets. I'll buy you another drink." said Helena, patting his head.
Zer0 - X9
