[iustitiae]

Yeah. It sucks.

[devilsavocado]

It sucks because it's small, or because it's a cave?

[iustitiae]

Both? Yeah, both.

[devilsavocado]

I figured.

[ It's a crappy deal all around. ]

Hey, at least there's a bar, right?

[ Exhibit A: Connor. ]

[iustitiae]

Yeah, cool, I can get shitfaced to deal with it.

[devilsavocado]

[ Connor, no. ]

Hey, if you want an alternative, there's always working out. I usually box my feelings away.

[iustitiae]

I go running every day. You know that.

[devilsavocado]

I could teach how to box, if you wanted to do more than just run.

[ How do you think Matt got his 8-pack, Connor. ]

[iustitiae]

No. I'm -- I'm good.

[ha ha ha ha he doesnt need to box with matt hes
good]

[devilsavocado]

The offer's there if you ever change your mind.

[ He'll help you feel safe, Connor..... by teaching you boxing I promise. ]

[iustitiae]

Thanks.

[he'll think about the idea of matt half naked and covered in sweat later....definitely.......]

[devilsavocado]

[ Enjoy that, Connor. Matt stands up and offers Connor a hand. ]

Here, let's get you to bed.

[iustitiae]

Yeah, okay.

[he puts the empty glass on the table and the bowl from the peanuts too and then takes matt's hand

wow matts hand is warm and nice and
maybe he'll lean on him a little]

[devilsavocado]

[ That's cool, Connor, you are probably too drunk to walk too far without assistance. Matt lets Connor lean on him and starts walking them over to his room. ]

You good to walk?

[iustitiae]

Yeah, I've got this.

[devilsavocado]

Okay, cool.

[ Here we go, just gonna guide you to your room. Don't ask how Matt is doing this without having to guide his hand over the wall, but hopefully Connor's too drunk to ask himself that. ]

[iustitiae]

[nah hes not gonna notice]

And you've got me we're good.

[devilsavocado]

I sure do.

[ Like, for real, he is a rock of muscle. He can very carefully place Connor in his bed, peeling off his shoes before covering him with a blanket. ]

[iustitiae]

[dang hes too nice really]

You're a good friend, Matt. I'm glad you're here.

[cashmere had said it to him and it made him feel good so he can share that love.]

[devilsavocado]

[ Matt smiles. That does feel good to hear. ]

Thanks, Connor. I'm glad you're here, too.

[ Now get some sleep, buddy. ]
