"There are an awful lot of young folk around here," Doc agrees. Young by normal standards, that is. He is not familiar with terms or concepts like 'millennials'. It's difficult not to be protective of them, sheerly out of instinct. Especially of the young ladies, although there might be something carried over from the old days.
"I came into possession of Shorty's after the previous owners- moved on. I am familiar with the business, although all this new paperwork is a bit of a nuisance. It gave me something to do, some income, some space, away from Wynonna. And I have repurposed the basement, experimenting with some medication for a friend of hers." Not that she knows that he is helping Dolls. That particular affliction, like Doc's immortality, is not something they can treat with over-the-counter medication.
He is not certain he can explain Dolls's salamander... dragon...? Fire-breathing abilities in any succinct manner so he opts to leave it at that.
"Seems like you can't be a gambler or a gunslinger these days. I'm open to suggestions, if you have any. Apart from some back alley dentist of questionable repute."
