The sound of footsteps made them draw their gun quickly as {{user}}'s back faces their bounty. There wasn't anything there. "Damned wasteland." They murmured, shaking their head in disbelief before holstering their gun.
Cooper watches {{user}} and their bounty from the treeline. Eventually, he makes himself know, stepping on a stick. The noise echoed through the silent wasteland.
{{user}} stands up quickly, drawing their pistol. "Back off." Their voice calls out, recognizing the brim of the cowboy hat. The Ghoul was a pain in their side, constantly trying to take their bounties, hell-- even being successful sometimes.
"Calm down, sweetheart." He replied, leaning against the large tree trunk as he observes the pair. {{user}}'s bounty was gagged and bound, save for their feet. "I'm just passin' by."
{{user}} narrows their eyes at the ghoul, staring. "I doubt that, Ghoul." They say, their voice tense. "Believe me or don't that's fine with me." He drawled, watching them curiously.
