“Is that why you’re here right now?” Eugene asked, liquor loosening his lips and mind. “Don’t have any family?”
Eugene winced as soon as the words left his mouth; the words sounded much harsher to his ears than they had in his head. Snafu, however, seemed unaffected; instead of answering, positively or negatively, he busied himself with lighting himself another cigarette. He was almost sure that the question had been thankfully dropped completely when Snafu spoke.
“Think the better question here is why are you here right now, Sledge?” Snafu asked through a cloud of cigarette smoke, eyes still fixated on the ceiling above. “From how I hear it, you got a nice cushy family just beggin’ you to come back. Pay for your ticket and everything just to have you back, wouldn’t even have’ta ask.”
“I- the shop,” Eugene stuttered, cursing the alcohol in his system for clouding his mind. “Someone’s gotta keep it running while Bill’s gone. It’s a lot of work-”
“Yeah, sure, the shop that’s been closed more than it’s been open this week sure is keeping ya busy. Don’t know how you manage,” Snafu countered. “Admit it, Sledge, you’re hidin’.”
“Well, what about you?” Eugene snapped, annoyed that the relaxed air that had surrounded them for the past few hours was so suddenly ruined. “You never answered my question. Do you actually not have any family or are you hiding too?”
“Too?”
“Shut the fuck up, Snafu,” Eugene hissed as he propped himself up onto his elbows and drank from his glass until it was drained; he could hear Snafu chuckling darkly but he made no acknowledgement towards the other man.
After he set the empty glass on the floor, Eugene collapsed back down next to it. There was a beat and then Snafu popped himself up into a sitting position and refilled Eugene’s glass before he filled his own. Out of the corner of his eye, Eugene watched as Snafu brought the glass to his mouth, drained it and refilled the glass silently while wincing slightly. Snafu set himself back on the floor and stared at the ceiling, eyes unfocused, for a minute before he spoke.
“Yeah, sure, technically I got family still,” Snafu answered slowly. “Just cus they’re blood don’t mean I consider them family anymore.”
There was another pause so Snafu could take another drink from his glass; Eugene stayed silent and didn’t move, unsure if there would be more or if that was that.
“Daddy ran out when I was young. He was a piece of shit so we weren’t too broken up about that. Wouldn’t go so far as to call him family. Hell, don’t even know if he’s alive.” Another pause, another sip of alcohol. “Mama had me real young. Parents either kicked her out or she ran away with my piece of shit daddy, don’t know. No grandparents to visit.” Another drink; his glass was almost empty again.
“What about your mom?” Eugene asked quietly when Snafu stayed quiet.
ok so like i met julien gauthier and cliff pu and nicolas roy today??? at like the after game skate for the charlotte checkers and like i had never skated before today??? and i fell and sprained my wrist like an idiot but like
i talked to cliff pu when i first got on the ice and i was like “please dont watch when i skate away because i dont wanna fall in front of you” and he laughed and it was great
but a bit after i fell he skated over to like check on me and see if i had fallen which i had (obviously) and he laughed and said “but i didnt see it so at least theres that”
and basically this is just a long winded way of saying cliff pu has the best laugh i’ve ever heard
