A grimace appeared after she mirrored his look; Hal scoffed and waved her off. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. How could no one have heard of Green Lantern? It was only one of the most recognizable names in the entire 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅. “Are you telling me you’ve never heard —

“Goldfish?” Hal laughed heartily. “I like that. That’s good. You know, before I became a big shot in the saving-the-world-department, I used to gamble my baseball cards on the playground when we played that. Now ain’t that somethin’?” The fond memory made him laugh again.

Dark eyes flicker to the intergalactic bit of jewelry he’s flashing, a brow raising —- unimpressed, clearly.

“Well, I prefer Go Fish. No nonsense, straight to the point.”

[𝙷𝙰𝙻 𝙹𝙾𝚁𝙳𝙰𝙽 , 𝙶𝚁𝙴𝙴𝙽 𝙻𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴𝚁𝙽. @oathrescinded]

Hal broke out into a smile, held up his hands, and shook his head. “No. Not me, darlin’. I’m sure you already know everythin’ there is about me, seein’ as I’m Green Lantern and all.” He narrowed his eyes. “You 𝒅𝒐 know who I am, don’t ya?”

Hal lifted the glass, said, "Thanks," and then took a sip. He studied the flavor by swishing the contents around in his mouth before he swallowed with a loud gulp. "This ain't poison, is it?" he said, tilting the glass. "Not exactly top shelf. You give this to all your guests?"

“Why the fuck would I play backgammon with a buncha yahoos when I have this,” Hal brandished the intergalactic ring on his finger, “the most powerful weapon on God’s green Earth? I’m more of an Uno guy, anyhow.”

Hey. You made it sound like you were playing backgammon.

Don’t put words in my mouth.

That’s Mister Headache to you, young lady. Whatever ever happened to respectin’ your elders? Did they not teach you that over in Gotham?

Hand over the bottle; I’m getting all worked up and need to take the edge off. You said you had whiskey?
