when: vague noises
where: A Bar
warnings: Drinking and Gay

[ Alright. Didn't take a genius to put together that this wasn't the most ideal situation for Kravitz. He'd been updated by Taako before anyone even knew Kravitz was around. Then there was the hologram thing. No way Taako is just ready to jump back into a relationship he hasn't even been in for a year. And no one would blame him.

But that didn't mean that Kravitz was fine either. The way he saw it? He was the closest thing to a friend that Kravitz had here. Maybe even at home, too. He wasn't a popular dude, Death. But. Hey. He liked him. And he needed a friend. At least he could relate with years of knowing Taako, knowing what it was like to be with a twin.

He sends a text to Kravitz ]

Hey man. How about me and you go hit up this cool new bar I heard about?

[ Don't make him say why. ]

Comments

[ Maybe that should be it. Maybe it should be that easy. To think of his Taako, back in the Faerun he remembers, and just be content to wait to go back to him.

Kravitz sighs, elbow on the table, and rests his cheek on his hand. ]

I don't know how to think of him as some... other person. I'm not sure I can, even if I did want to.

[alldenim]

[ It's. Such a good point that Barry knows would affect him too. ]

Yeah. Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. Those two twins... They're hard to overcome, huh?

[ He says it with the most love in his eyes and heart and down to his very soul. Yes, he loves Lup, but he also loves Taako. They're family, in one way or another.

But maybe he can help lighten Kravitz's mood. He grins and gently nudges him. ]

You think Taako can be a pain in the ass now? Imagine what it was like with doomsday every year.

[rapsheet]

[ That's fair. Kravitz might not have a hundred years of memories to pull from - at least not ones involving the same people, or even usually people at all - but he thinks he can very much relate to how impossible the twins are to look past. Don't believe he didn't try, after all. As unbelievable as it sounds now there was actually a time when he was considered quite good at his job. ]

Oh?

[ He lifts an eyebrow and attempts a smile, at least willing to let himself be cheered up now that he's gotten the worst of his fears off his chest. ]

[alldenim]

[ Barry smiles, trying to keep up the light humor. There's... nothing to really do is there but just keep smiling? The only way he can help is keep the boss in good spirits (HAH) and listen to him about his problems. ]

Imagine extreme apathy mixed with extreme stress. It was buckwild.

[ He relaxes against the table again. ]

But, there was a few times that were amazing. There was this world that was nothing but a tropical beach. He taught me how to swim and convinced me that I should do something about being madly in love with his sister.
