Lana was grateful when she saw Lucas, knowing him through Emilia and the fact that a friendly face was helping made it all less embarrassing over all. âI mean.. I can be clumsy Luke but you know Iâm slightly more graceful than knocking over the majority of a display..â she pulled a faces laughing herself. She picked up a couple more boxes and stood up, dusting herself off with one hand before putting them all of the hook, lucky for the help as it was now completely put away,
âI honestly havenât ever come on a Saturday before so I have no judgement. Iâm only here to pick up the latest Crystal City comic. But I think theres some Avengers game release this weekend.â holding up the comic in her hand shaking her head in disbelief. âHave you never been here before dude?â kinda shocked because sheâd thought Lucas might have been into this kind of stuff.
âBut do I really know that? Hmm...â He gave a thoughtful hum, clearly joking as he continued to smile at Lana. âAs they say, the proof is in the pudding.â Lucas gave a dramatic juggle of the last couple items heâd scooped up, as if that proved his point, before chuckling lightly. He was only eighty percent sure that heâd even used that phrase correctly, but it still felt wildly satisfying to say.
âAh, that would do it.â He nodded sagely, straightening up to stack the last couple card packs and boxes alongside the ones Lana had put away already. âIf thereâs even a rumor about some new Avengers thing, the whole internet implodes. -- Iâve never heard about Crystal City, though...â Lucas tipped his head, trying to get a better look at the comicâs front when Lana showed it off. He shrugged a little, no familiarity striking from the cover art. âYeah, no, Iâve never been. Iâm not really big into comics.â Or reading in general. âBut I mightâve tried to swing by here sooner if Iâd known they had board game stuff, too.â He nodded specifically to the display theyâd just picked up, wondering for a moment what other gaming things they had mixed in with the Marvel and DC merch. Glancing back to Lana, his brows lifted a little, grin going cheeky. âI had no idea you were a comic nerd.â
