after the event

Someone tell me someone has some cigarettes. I need one. Or a dozen.

What? Are you saying there's no reason I'd be craving a cigarette after all that?

[unsealthecatbox]

I dunno, but is it really something to worry about at a time like this? After all that I'd worry more about what's to come than in indulging your cravings.

[Unnecessarily judgmental and perhaps even unfair, that was. Still, at least she seems to back down somewhat, because she adds:]

I suppose if I come across any I'll get them to you. It's not like I want to take smoking anytime soon.

[She's not sure she will find cigarettes but at least she will pick them up to pass them to him if by chance she finds any]

[hoponpop]

I think you don't know what it's like to be a smoker.

[unsealthecatbox]

Certainly not. The only proximity I have had with cigarettes are rebellious classmates sneaking behind the school to smoke.

[And they sure weren't going to share with her -- not that Ange was ever interested]

That bad, huh.

[Such a comment really illustrates further she's very ignorant about this sort of thing]

Listen, nicotine is a hell of a drug. At this point I don't know how to relax without it.
