@ratkiing

he needed a fucking drink. and while there was plenty of beer back at his apartment, he didn't want to go back there yet. waiting at home for him was absolutely fucking nothing. a freezer meal, some beer, a shitty tv show he could fall asleep to. that was, if he could even fall asleep. then, he'd wake up the next morning, figure out which jeans to sell, and continue on with the fucking routine. he didn't really want to deal with that, yet.

so he decides to stop at a pub. he hadn't really taken the name, and he honestly didn't care. just knows that he passes it to work every day, and when he walks in, there's relief to see the place is fairly quiet. friday nights, (at least he thinks it's friday), these kinds of places are usually packed. maybe not a great sign for the bar, but a great sign for him.

(no one to fucking recognize him. he's already gotten tired of that shit.)

he sits down at the bar, and before the bartender even looks at him, just says, "i'll take whatever the cheapest beer is." he can't find it in himself to be picky.

@ratkiing sent: i think i have a bit more experience in this thing than you do. [ ACCEPTING. ]

❝ uh, i think that says more about you than it does me, charlie, ❞ though their tone may sound slightly judgmental, they don't step away. in fact, they do the opposite, crouching closer to charlie so they can peer over his shoulder at whatever they're looking at from so far away. they're on a corner somewhere between paddy's and a coffee shop and have been for about ten minutes now. paris finds themselves halfway between their curiosity surrounding what the hell they're doing and the fear that they'll miss their shift. ❝  is what's supposed to happen gonna happen soon ? 'cause i kinda have a thing at — ❞     they're cut off by charlie hushing them . . . a sound so sudden they nearly drop their phone through a sewer grate. after adjusting themselves, a careful hand placed on charlie's shoulder, paris narrows their eyes and follows his gaze. up ahead, a young woman crosses the street and enters a shop. now that's the ticket, she thinks.

a slow smile creeps across paris' face until she's grinning from ear to ear. she steps back, crosses her arms, and elbows him. ❝  wait, do you have a CRUSH on her ? because if that's the case, i definitely have more experience in this than you do. ❞     they stop their undeserved gloating in order to bounce on the tips of their toes. ❝  charlie, dude, you have to let me help you. i can get you guys talking for sure, ❞

shawn has some important questions for @ratkiing

“So is it law about birds or law for birds? Like are we talking custody battle over the canary post break-up, or helping a parakeet get out of a parking ticket?”

@ratkiing gets a thing of course

it almost feels like sort of a joke. it’s not like hiding the fact that he was a werewolf was hard, save for the day or so that he was stuck transformed into a beast in his apartment. usually he got through just fine by telling everyone that he was sick, and he needed space to deal with it. people didn’t even really ask for explanations, most of the time. which was good, because austin has never been a great liar.

the thing is, he and charlie had a bit of an open door policy. charlie even had a key. and so, austin doesn’t know the exact reason, but he does hear footsteps that sound exactly like charlie’s. and while he should do something, he kind of just finds himself freezing on the couch that he’s too big for now. as there’s a knock and the door turns to open, he pulls a blanket up in a small attempt to cover himself. it is not working.

“h-hey, charlie!” but he shouldn’t have spoken either. aside from the whole wolf man thing going on, his voice sounds so much deeper and more gruff. fuck, he sucks at this.
