Tequila, today...it seems.

[Sitting next to him. Lucky Ramuda. He gets to see a slummed out Jakurai. He didn't bother to change from his loose t shirt and sweats to come up here.]

[remoulade]

( god he’s hot.

ramuda lifts a brow at the getup. and then bursts out laughing, shifting to lean against jakurai. )

You look like a bum, ya know.

[zazen]

I have days off too.

[Putting an arm around Ramuda.] Tell me all of the constellations in the sky tonight.

[remoulade]

Mmkay!

( it sounds bright, lacking the fake lilt he puts on around people who aren’t the dirty dawg. he doesn’t even mind that he’s resting his head against the other man’s collarbone. )

So, that one is Orion’s Belt. Aaaaand we have the big dipper over there.

( slyly, he snags jakurai’s hand to trace out the stars. )

[zazen]

[He allows it. Drunk Ramuda is sort of cute in his own way.

He moves their hands over.]

Over there is Cygnus.

[remoulade]

( he’s unguarded in a rare, special way. )

Was it part of your training?

[zazen]

Identifying constellations? No. I just spent a lot of time between places.

[Dragging their hands over back to Orion's belt.] If you look, you can all all of Orion too. His body, his sword.

[remoulade]

( ramuda cracks up again. )

I don’t need to see his sword, Jaku.

[zazen]

[Rolling his eyes. Pushing the nearly emptied bottle of tequila away.]

It's not normal for you to drink alone.

[remoulade]

( ramuda’s smile fades. )

It was a shitty day. I wanted my brain to shut off for awhile.

[zazen]

You could have called me.

[Putting a bottle of water in his hands.]

[remoulade]

( he uncaps it and takes a short swig. )

And make you play hero again? Mmmmm.

( he swishes the water around in the bottle. )

But here you are anyway.

[zazen]

I'm not playing the hero.

[Shifting so both of his arms are around Ramuda.]

[remoulade]

( ramuda falters, a weak laugh peetering out. )

Then what are you playing?

[zazen]

Company, I guess.

[He finds Ramuda's hands.]

[remoulade]

( company.... ramuda allows it, assisting in threading their hands together. )

Why do you keep coming to find me?

[zazen]

Why did you come to find me?

[Hm, this is comfortable.]

[remoulade]

Ooooh. Touché.

( ramuda twists his head to the side to glance up at jakurai’s face. )

[zazen]

Well? You are the one who sought me out in the first place. What do you have to say for yourself?

[Looking down at him.]

[remoulade]

No faiiiir. Asking me when I’m drunk.

( he pouts, extremely dramatically. )

[zazen]

You could answer me, though.

[Resting his chin on Ramuda's shoulder.]

[remoulade]

( ramuda closes his eyes. )

Your reputation preceded you. I had to have you.

[zazen]

That's fair.

[Looking down at their linked hands.] I brought your favorite food, and a pack of cigarettes for you. Do you want to come home with me?

[remoulade]

( his favorite. of course he knows his favorite. )

Don’t you work early tomorrow?

[zazen]

I do.

[He's still here.]
