* ❪ 🛠️ ❫ ﹕ 𝗵𝗲'𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗹𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝗮 𝗽𝗶𝗻𝘁. a fox slinking out the hole of his autoshop that camouflages peculiar nature. dilated pupils adjust immediately at the coax of attention, philosophical prose causing him to simply stare. a moment to come to consciousness, an interaction forcing him to brush off warped social skills. unused vocal cords stretch for the first time in several hours, a thick accent instantly revealing that he was not a regular. in redstone, in redcreek. �� what the hell are you on about ? ❜ timbre gravelly in nature, intensified by a spasm of cords protesting the lack of water in his system. ❛ hadn't realized my drink came with a psych evaluation. or are you just naturally intrusive ? ❜ features unwavering. small talk. a costly human habit, endorsed by the man across and loathed entirely by the man that replies. sasha can hear it now, his more civil companion ushering him to sit up straight and stop brooding, fix the scowl imprinted on his face like a damn tattoo. within a second he's tapping the bottom of his glass against the counter, breathing out a cold front of vodka. the tight line of his lips are gone, replaced by a soft clearing of throat, glancing up through clear glasses with a sorry expression. he's replacing taut air with jest, despite the monotone drawl that never seems to go away. ❛ do i not appear a ray of sunshine ? what makes you think i'm not celebrating ? ❜
for those who found religion at the bottom of their glass, nicolas could easily be conflated into something akin to a pastor — a priest, even, offering someone just a hint of salvation … two ounces of it, at least. isn't that why it's called a spirit ? semantics aside, this bar top, stained oak whose probably seen just as much blood as any living member of red creek provided ample surface for every admission that slipped past vodka-glistened lips. every fight, skirmish, and accidental knick was immortalized in its unyielding frame, touched by patrons both of this realm and those now of another. the white towel in hand, buffing off the stickiness of your typical nighttime rush, sanctifying it for yet another confessional. “ can i get you anything else, or are you just gonna keep lookin' for the meaning of life in the bottom of your glass ? ” he doesn't blame them, not for the vacancy or whatever it was that muddled a once-lively visage. nico saw it in everyone, more and more with each passing day, that specific draining of life he had only witnessed once, a while ago, and under a lesser, more blameless state of mind — childlike naïveté, the best chaser to all things real. “ i don't think you're gonna find it there - i've stared at enough of ‘em to know that, i guess. ———— or maybe you’ll just be the lucky winner. ”
CAPPING AT FIVE REPLIES or maybe more idk ... — 0 / 5 .
