hey so i saw this one place was giving away a free comic if it was ur birthday and u were 13 or under

[It hasn't really been a year since he turned 13, so it's not like he was lying exactly. He's only been 13 for a little while! The calendar here's just different from back home. That's not his fault.]

so are there any other places that do that?

i wouldnt want them to think nobody will take them up on their offer

[cuff]

Then hey, ah- god speed and all that. Get a goodie bag and get all you can get get.

[killectric]

somewhere with good burgers and sundaes! that munchbox place was pretty good

but i need to bring all this stuff home first

[killectric]

I'll be needing more than just a bag by the end of today.

[HE WILL NEED A GOODIE SUITCASE.] Anyway, I better get to work. Buttering people up takes time.

[cuff]

Yeah, you're set. Better get while the gettin's good.

Good luck, huh?

[memorybomb]

[She laughs a little, though he can't see or hear it. Does he know The Munchbox is owned by Chrollo? Either way...]

Alright, we'll go to The Munchbox. Should I meet you there when you're done with everything?

[killectric]

[He doesn't...rip.]

yeah sure

how about in an hour?

[memorybomb]

[Poor baby.]

Of course. I'll see you then.

-> ACTION

[killectric]

[She sure will! Killua doesn't even bother to stake the place out first this time, he's just sitting at a table waiting, already emptying a thing of fries.]

Hey! [He lifts a hand to flag her over.] I told them to add this to your tab.

[As if he was going to buy food when she was treating him to lunch. HAH.]

[memorybomb]

[Pakunoda smiles and waves at Killua before she heads over to the table and takes a seat.] That won't be a problem.

[A pause as she looks over at the waitress.] Just a strawberry milkshake for me. Two cherries on top, please. [And back to looking at Killua.]

You know the boss owns this place, right?

[killectric]

Oh, I want a burger and a chocolate milkshake too! [He quickly adds before the waitress leaves, and then his attention is back on Pakunoda.

Where the news means he immediately chokes on his french fries.] W-what?!

[memorybomb]

[She laughs lightly at Killua's reaction.] Chrollo owns The Munch Box. He purchased it not too long ago, actually.

[killectric]

... [Killua makes a sour face, pushing away his food.]

Is it too late to eat somewhere else?

[memorybomb]

Well, that's a bit of a waste, isn't it? Still, you're the birthday boy. So I won't say we can't.

[killectric]

Hmmn... [His eyebrow twitches as he considers.] I guess I'll just eat it, but next time, you should really tell me first!

[memorybomb]

Unless he decides to buy any other diners in the meantime, I doubt I'll need to.

But honestly, you don't need to worry about it. It isn't as if there are plans for this place other than good food. [And a Spider hangout, but pfft. Details.]
