CJ was so much more fun to write now that i have figured out who she is. “20 yo who hasn’t learned that giving no shits can be powerful but also terrible” and was like huh yeah i knew a lot of people like that when I was that age (in comparison to me chronically overthinking everything)

 

anyway “chat” what nicknames are you throwing at CJ? IGNORING THE FACT THAT CJ IS TECHNICALLY A NICKNAME FOR HER INITIALS

(Ash “you don’t like being called Charlotte casually? Ok well i shall register that info under the Deadname category forever and CJ is now officially your name”
CJ “Ok sure”)

Ash points to Cj and grins. "Although, you are older than me, so technically you are the grumpy OLD git out of either of us!"
CJ points back. "Not by much! You can't claim inclusivity to "Grumpy Old Gitdom" and then exclude yourself!"
ASh chuckles. "Don't care! I am doing it anyway! I will be whatever I want to be!"
CJ does a mocking zombie pose. "So we gotta promise each other to not turn into boring, mindless zombies, right?"
Ash cheerfully yells "ANd remain young anf awesome forever!"
In the background, the older grumpy customer closes the drawers and staggers away using his cane, He looks backwards slightly at the loud, gossiping duo.
CJ grins evilly. "oooor I will have the right to call you an old man every shift, got that?"
ASh beams evilly back. "Fine, but I will also get you a nickname if you do!"
CJ continues. "Bring it on! Let's see your creative side! I am sure i can do something better for you than "Old Man" as well!"
ASh grins slyly. "It'll at least give you something to do for a while!"
CJ laughs. "Alright, I will hold ya to it!"
