A new candy store is giving free promotional candy to try and attract new customers. At first, it’s delicious; it’s easily one of the best candies you’ve ever had. Only, within twenty four hours of eating your first piece, you begin to have extreme tooth pain that can last for up to a whole day. It feels like a cavity, but a trip to the dentist reveals nothing strange. It just hurts. While the pain eventually fades, you’ll remember how much it hurt. Is your drive for Halloween Candy dented or are you still gearing up for more?
To say Louis was entirely upset was an understatement. He had spent the better part of the day sulking about over the ordeal that was the candy from the foulest pits of hell. No, not a one pound bag of sugar free gummi bears that you could buy off of amazon. No, this was local. Some downright local, home grown bull s**t life ruination that he’d walked right into like he was goddamn 12 and had to just not any form of self control because haha what was that oh right something he’d lost when he had free time and was laid off of work. Some store had a promotion going, giving away free samples and like any regular mook, Louis had gone in, and grabbed a ******** handful because what was better than the low low price of free? Um, nothing. But okay yes, that was bad of him. Not as bad as murder, (which was his other job occupation so hey it wasn’t like he was being evil eating a handful of free candy) but just-.
In pain, Louis had gone so far to go to the dentist, banking on the fact his old work had dental care as an option he’d signed up for. But the dentist had looked at him, his teeth, and then back at home, given him a bottle of painkillers and sent him out the door. Nothing wrong his a**. Part of him wanted to go out and enact some kind of retribution for finding nothing, but more, he wanted to take out that damn candy store and it’s free candy because nothing else explained why his teeth hurt as much as they did. He didn’t eat anything out of the ordinary aside from that candy. It was the common denominator or whatever people liked to all it. That thing you just knew was the reason ******** what logic and science said. Science was a dentist running tests and finding nothing.
God, he hated this. Rolling around on his bed, Louis debated powering up. Maybe the pain would lessen? It was possible maybe. He could- or it might make it worse? What if it was some kind of order candy and that’s why it was hurting so mu- nah. ******** senshi and knights were too dumb for that kind of leg work. Plus if it had been, the higher ups would have shut it down. Louis was left with little to no recourse. He had to just wait it out and writhe in pain while his teeth went through this hellscape that was a tooth ache drawn by taking a handful of free ******** candy from a stranger. Rest in god damn pieces his jaw. Grumbling as he took another pain pill, Louis wondered where his life had gone so wrong that he worked for a group that killed for kicks and couldn’t afford to pay him. Talk about modern day capitalism at it’s finest.
The pills did nothing, but hey, better than never trying.
