On the inevitability of things breaking

~teacup

Hey ~bartender,

how's it today?

Do you have one of those fluffy chocolate cakes somewhere? I'd really take a byte.

While I was entering I noticed the padlock fell from the navbar and broke.

I recall talking with someone here about how things may vanish someday without making a noise, and how that would be so sad.

The padlock made me remember not all things vanish instantly, sometimes they break and sit in the dust waiting for someone to notice.

I really hope this is not the last time it breaks, as in, I really wish to see this thing break and get repaired - that means dedication and toughtfulness, affection, right?

Ah yes, we did have some issue with that lock... who would have guessed it'd be so hard to find a locksmith in this city? All sorted though! One fully chocolate byte coming your way!

Bartender! :D

Thanks, I'm really craving it!

Would you and the locksmith also be so kind to have a drink on me tonight? I'll gladly pay the tab :)
