[ A young man with hair that looks like a fashion choice isn’t far from the action figures in question. He isn’t looking at them now because someone else is, and Tommy would prefer to keep any action figure purchases that he makes for the nerds in his life quiet.

But he’s certainly close enough to recognize that something’s Not Right about the guy in the trench coat who’s talking to himself. Because he’s talking to himself.

So Tommy pays attention for a second. Maybe even ten. Weird look. Mutant. Makeup. Who knows, he’s old as dirt so he could be a fan of the Cure or Marilyn Manson. It’s all very local loony, and Tommy half expects to be hit up for a loosey.

And then… Fedora produces another action figure box out of nowhere and leaves it on the shelf and walks off. That’s not how capitalism works.

You dropped this neatly on the booth.

[ The words are possibly in the air before Tommy blurs to a stop a few feet in front of Fedora, holding out the box.

What the hell, he has time, and this is more interesting than a superhero farmer’s market.
