21- Never as fun the second time around

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Anyone who happens to wander near the Astral Kitchen will see someone sitting a the table, hunched over and with their head pillowed in between their arms. This someone currently happens to be Jack.

Jack is hungover. This is what happens when you drink half the bar trying to find the kind of liquor you used to drink before your memories were wiped. Unfortunately for him, he's not even sure if he ever found it, thanks to his head feeling like it's being pounded into the ground by someone very very angry and with just as much energy.]

[He knows the voice. At least that means he doesn't have to raise his head] What?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[he sighs] You're hungover.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

...yeah. [He may sound slightly guilty about this, but that's just your imagination Doctor. Really]

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[he sighs and sits down across from him] What brought this on?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

You said I drank. I wanted to find out what exactly it was that I drank.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

I didn't say you drank regularly. In fact you avoid it. ...Did you figure it out?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Oh. And...I can't remember. Maybe? I should ask the guy I was drinking with....

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Who were you drinking with?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

He was a guy. Kept pouring me drinks.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[he just runs a hand over his face] I would advise asking for names from these people.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

What for? I just needed the names of the drinks.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

It's good to know who you're talking to, especially in this state.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

What does it matter?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

What if it had been the Master? Or...I don't know, someone else against you.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Half shrug, because he doesn't have an answer to that]

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, aside from the hangover, do you feel all right?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

What else is there to feel but the hangover.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

That's a very depressing statement, Jack.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

...what, why?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh, well, it just... Never mind.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Headache. Ever have one of those? Thinking doesn't help.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

I get headaches frequently these days. [hi, Master, that's a jab at your damn drums] I might have something to help?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Like what?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh, well, I have had hangovers before and I keep pills in my pocket for them. Just in case, that sort of thing.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mind something for the headache.
