Until a week ago they had been John and Larry. Larry said, “Fuck it. If God is dead then I don’t need to use my God given name anymore.”

“What should we call you now?”

“Rambo.”

“Fuck yeah. Call me Cobra.”

They toasted over goblets of gasoline and went to see how Will was doing with the robots. Will became Commando. Commando thought he knew two things. One: drinking out of goblets was medieval and badass. Two: Robots could save the world.

“That’s a fuck ton of gasoline that guy with hair is using,” Cobra says.

Rambo says, “Yep, he’s got gasoline and legs.”

It’s a pointless observation. The church is really burning now. The Reverend says something about building a mountain to God and throws himself into the fire.

Rambo forgets where he is, forgets what he’s watching, and chalks it up to the gasoline intake or maybe thinks he has a slag stuck somewhere in his head.

The sky is blue.

The smoke is black and covering it up.

Cobra has two eyes and a unibrow and for a second Rambo wants to punch him in the face to make the unibrow separate in two.

“Smells like burning,” he says.

Cobra coughs and asks if he wants to go to the refrigerator graveyard and see if Commando’s there.

Rambo can’t remember where the refrigerator graveyard is but says okay and that he thinks the El Camino is sick and he’s pretty sure there’s a dead woman filled with slags in the bed of it.

Cobra tells him the world is mostly water and evil anyway and they pull away, chugging gasoline straight from the plastic milk jug.

Neither one of them can remember what Commando said about goblets. He might have been talking about goblins.
