Penny laughed. “What, too soon?” she asked, finally slipping out the window.

“You’re the worst,” Iliana told her. “See you around?”

Penny grinned up at her from the rock. “Yeah, I’ll see you.” She checked around to make sure no one was watching as she stepped down. “And...thanks,” she added with a glance back up at Iliana’s window.

“Do you believe in love?” [Iliana, behindthemidnightsun]

Penny let out a long hum as she mulled over the question. It took her a minute, not surprising considering how much they’d been drinking, and she still wasn’t very confident in her answer.

“I dunno. I guess,” she decided with a shrug. “Hard to believe in something you’ve never seen though, you know?”

Penny offered her a crooked grin. “How about a kiss good-bye?” she teased.

“Fuck off,” Iliana returned, laughing despite herself. “Go on, get out of here before we’re both in trouble.”

Penny laughed. “What, too soon?” she asked, finally slipping out the window.

Penny rolled her eyes as she made her way to the way too bright window. “Fuck,” she mumbled, shoving open the window. She straddled the windowsill, glancing down at the convenient stepping stool of a rock below. “Wait,” she said, turning back to Iliana before she left.

Iliana glanced anxiously back at her door before looking back at Penny. “What?’

Penny offered her a crooked grin. “How about a kiss good-bye?” she teased.

“You think?” Penny repeated, laughing and making her way to the window. “You’re the one who doesn’t want to get in trouble.”

“I’m also hungover, and the sun’s out,” Iliana grumbled. She backed away from the window to help Penny through it. “It looks clear. Try to be quiet.”

Penny grabbed her shoe from Iliana and shoved it on her foot. “I’m–I don’t know,” she whispered hoarsely. “I barely remember getting here.”

“Well, if I find anything you left, I’ll bring it for you next time,” Iliana promised. She tried once more to peer out the window, shading her eyes and squinting through the stabbing in her skull. “I think the coast is clear.”

“You think?” Penny repeated, laughing and making her way to the window. “You’re the one who doesn’t want to get in trouble.”

“Right, sorry…” Penny mumbled, finally rolling out of bed herself and trying to remember where her drunk self had left her things. “Where’s my other shoe?”

“Fuck, I don’t know.” Iliana turned away from the window to help Penny look. She eventually found the shoe under the bed, kicked halfway behind Iliana’s hockey bag. She fished it out, then sat up with a groan. “Okay, here. Is there anything else?”

Penny grabbed her shoe from Iliana and shoved it on her foot. “I’m--I don’t know,” she whispered hoarsely. “I barely remember getting here.”

Still smiling her shy smile, Penny nodded. “Okay, um... I’ll see you Wednesday.”

[phone call from Penny] "Um, hi, is this...Kinsey's Cuts? I'm, um... I'm looking for Kinsey...?"

The person who answered the phone had a strong Scottish accent and a sunshine-bright chipper tone. “Yeah, this is Kinsey’s Cuts! Kinsey’s in the back right now, but if you can hold, I’ll go see if I can wrestle her away from whatever wig she’s working on.”@the-forgotten-stars

Penny cracked one eye open to look up at Iliana. Her anxiety was telling her to get up and get out of here before she got caught, but her hangover was making her body a little slow to catch up.

“Fuck...” she mumbled into her pillow.

“I-I will, thanks,” Penny said, knowing full well she was going to go home and immediately do way too much research on swing dancing to prepare for Wednesday. “Any other tips?” she asked with a nervous laugh.

Penny wasn’t quite as convinced as Kinsey, but she was excited to see her again, and try something new. “Yeah, I—I’ll see you then?”

Penny winced sympathetically. “That’s okay—I take the bus everywhere anyway.”

She couldn’t help a small, shy smile as she looked down at the paper in her hand. “Um, I’m...excited,” she admitted, peeking back up at Kinsey.

Penny, hungover and seriously enjoying how comfortable this bed was, only groaned and rolled away, seemingly unfazed by the other person in bed or the urgency of their situation.

“Yeah,” Penny mumbled, managing a laugh. “Never seen her catch on fire before but… I mean, she still doesn’t deserve to go to jail or anything, she needs help not…not that…”

The mention of jail hit Puck hard, and he flinched visibly. He knew how Allie felt about the intrusive enforcers of the law in Night Vale, be they official or vigilante, and the thought of her being detained by them for any amount of time hurt him as surely as the way they’d parted had.  “I’ll do what I can,” he said quietly, getting to his feet. 

Penny nodded distractedly. “Yeah,” she mumbled, glancing back toward the basement door, itching to get back to her work. “Me too.”

Penny’s heart contracted in her chest as she watched Cereza flinch away from her. She didn’t know what else to do except let her get comfortable and listen to her story.

Tears stung in her own eyes, and she resisted the urge to reach out for Cereza again. “I…” Penny wasn’t sure what to say. “That’s not your fault. You–you didn’t make it, you didn’t plant it. You’re…that’s not on you, Cereza.”

“But if I wasn’t there… Twelve more people would have lived. All of them deserved it more than-“ She hiccuped again, smearing long streaks of mascara down her face as she wiped her eyes. “More than me. A broke ass ex-stripper with no future.”

A light flashed from Cereza’s pocket and played a gentle tune. It was her brother calling- it was far past midnight by now.

“Goyo would be better off too.”

“Stop that,” Penny told her, desperately searching for the right thing to say. “It was a bomb, Cer, it would have hurt people no matter what, whether you touched it or someone else did.”

She untied the flannel wrapped around her waist and held it out to Cereza, for comfort or to wipe the make up from her face or to blow her nose in for all Penny cared. Anything to take away some of this pain.

It took a while to get Cereza away from her friends at Desviado, and even longer for Penny to work up the courage to say what had been on her mind for a while now. 

Of course, courage came in the form of several shots of whatever drinks she could pronounce without sounding like an idiot, until she found herself leaning against the wall in the back of the club with Cereza, finally alone.

“Thanks for bringing me out here,” she started, knowing that in this state, once she started talking she wasn’t going to stop until she said what she wanted to say. “I’m having a lot of fun and…well, not just tonight. I’m having a lot of fun with you, and… I just…” She glanced down at the floor, embarrassed. “I haven’t felt this way about anyone in… I don’t know, probably ever.”

Penny shrugged and glanced back up at Cereza, unable to mask the hope in her eyes. “I like you, short-stuff,” she finally admitted. With only a moment’s thought, Penny reached out for Cereza’s hand, looking for some kind of comfort or assurance in the gesture. “Like, can’t get you out of my head, fucking butterflies in my stomach like you.”
