I open my eyes as I realize Salt telepathically hung up on me, "That asshole." I mumble to myself. I see Kasey in front of me, crossing her arms expectantly, "Oh, shut up. There's no way bleach and ammonia makes mustard gas."
"Unc', I know what I'm talking about."
"Bah! We're taking this to Wikipedia!"
Back to the restaurant
"Oh, it's cool. I understand. Uh," She looks awkwardly at Salt's arms, "Care to tell me how you lost them. I mean, if it doesn't bring up any bad memories."
