thirteenth trick

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[The sight of this spiky haired miscreant may be surprising. He's obviously just as surprised as he stands there, a cup of ramen in one hand, and the other currently with a finger doing the tango in his nose. He stares blankly at the starry expanse, which stares back. It's apparent that he has no shame, as he keeps on picking his nose while taking in his surroundings.]

Hmmm. I'll give her ten seconds to give me a welcome back kiss. After that, it's anyone's call.

[Mrrt.] Fine then. [He lets go of the glass and reaches for the bottle instead, tagging a long swig. He's swaying a fair bit now.]

[Ikki stares. Did Hei just totally let him steal his drink?

Ah, hell, why not. Ikki takes a long sip himself and makes a face, but he's not spitting it out. Chances are he's raided Diva's cupboards out of curiosity before.]

[Hei raises his eyebrow, peering vaguely in Ikki's direction.]

Little young, aren't you?

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Hey, we're celebrating, aren't we? [He passes it back, though.]

[contract_star]

[Hei just keeps drinking from the bottle.] Mm, celebrating.

[Ikki rises from his seat to get a soda.] You alright over there? You don't look so hot.

[contract_star]

Just fine. [He raises the bottle in salute and takes another swig.] Celebrating and all. Cause you're back. Back from, uh, being gone. [He takes another swig and starts speaking very pointedly to an area just to the left and above Ikki's head.] Gone forever. I thought so, at least. That's, you know, that's what happens. But you're not, and that's good. Yeah, that's good.

[Ikki notices this. He grabs his soda, cracks it open and sits back down.]

Y'know, Hei-san... I'm over here. [He leans to the side a bit and smiles. He's so glad to have his doofy friends back.~]

[contract_star]

[Hei smiles despite himself and despite all the alcohol and mixed emotions.] Yeah. Yeah, you're right here. [He reaches over and after missing once or twice manages to grab Ikki's shoulder.]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki helps, and when Hei securely has his shoulder, Ikki leans forward to hug him.]

[contract_star]

[Hei still get's a little stiff and confused about surprise hugs, but he's fairly drunk so it's not so bad. After a moment of surprised blinking he hugs Ikki back.]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[After a moment...]

C'mon, nii-san. Let's get you back to Diva-san's place.

[contract_star]

Mmph. Probably a good idea. [He gets to his feet, wobbling quite a bit.]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki is there to lend a shoulder.] 'Course I'm right.

[contract_star]

[Hei leans on him rather heavily.] Always.
