[ Ahβ a shockingly complicated question when you've made friends with a bartender who sees ghosts and the spirit of your dead partner has latched himself onto you. That is too complicated to explain, so instead she just says: ]
No. [ A shake of her head. ] It's not too bad. I've... met people here. Good people. [ A small private smile, behind her glass. ] And there's not too many familiar faces I'd want to see here.
If you ever see anyone with this markβ [ She turns her head away, tugging down the collar of her leather jacket so Vi can get a good look at the brand on the back of her neck. Scarred skin raised into a distinct pattern of a skull in a flaming circle. ] Gimme a heads up because they might want to kill me.
[ Furiosa decided this was a less complicated then saying she has a boyfriend. ]
[ Are they friends? The realization is suddenly striking to Furiosa, who has never had the luxury of something casual and easy like this. Friendship. It's a nice thought.

Okay. I'll warn you, if I see it anywhere else.
[ And then she takes a drink and smiles again, a flash of teeth. ]
I'm glad you've met good people here, then.
