- A plastic-tipped dart whizzes out of the rafters, ricocheting impossibly
- off several surfaces before diving into Ruby's drink. She fishes it out,
- unscrews the end and pulls out a tightly-rolled slip of paper. Several
- patrons gather around, and Ruby reads the note out loud:
-
- "Hey, doll, tell the gentleman this. Did you say deadpan? So, you want
- to test our metal. Shear luck you should mention it. You can't brake us!
- You have tapped into a weld of knowledge. We'll even braze our standards
- and rack our brains to offer it to you on a goldplate."
-
- The note is signed, "S. Eagle." The dart feathers bear a picture of an
- eagle.
