Location: idk, pick a bar.

It wasn't entirely too that Hollis found himself drinking, alone, in a bar. In fact, he rarely found himself alone in general and he wasn't quite sure why he was now. He didn't have to be... But he assumed he wouldn't be the best company today. The anniversary of his parents death sat heavy on his shoulders. It always would, no matter what people told him. Hollis was the sole reason his parents were no longer around. And thinking about how they were gone and he wasn't just...never sat well with him. That was why Hollis dove head first into medicine. He wanted to make his parents proud of him in some way.

As he sat at the bar, tapping his fingers against his glass, he noted how low his drink was getting and how the bartender didn't seem to want to come down to his side of the bar. Clicking his tongue, Hollis released a huff and ran his fingers through his hair, "Have they come down here once?" He asked aloud. If Hollis was going to drink, he was going to drink... and he would rather it not be interrupted by the lack of booze in his glass.

Will worried. Sure he was used to Hollis ignoring the group chat. The lone wolf didn’t want to put up with the craziness that was the wolf chat. That was normal. What wasn’t normal was for Hollis not to answer his texts. It took Will a few tries to track him down in the last possible place that he thought that he’d be. The man usually was one to face his problems than looking for solutions in the bottom of the glass. That worried Will even more.

“Not since I’ve been here. Maybe I shouldn’t have dated her mom.” The attempt to make light of the situation wasn’t the best, but it was something that William hoped would put at least a small smile on his face. “Wanna tell me what’s wrong Doc?” He slid onto the stool next to him.

Najelon glared in confusion at the wolf. So he got to call the Incubus stupid and ridiculous names but they weren’t allowed to use his full name? This new nonsense was high up the pile Will had been building all his life. And yet, the Demon let it slide because the next thing he received was a perfectly deserved compliment.

“Yes, it does, Will.” He stressed the syllable as much as he had been the past few weeks. Readjusting in the seat to look better at him, Naj finally let a pleased smile take over his features. “Of course, you did. I’m impossible to resist.” One more fixed stare as if to make sure he wouldn’t cause any more trouble and the Demon relaxed enough to search his pockets for a cigarette.

The smoke swirled up in the air as Naj sighed. “I like you here, you make parties more…” He cocked his head to one side in thought. “Entertaining.” A knowing smirk. He took another drag and warned Will before letting the smoke out. “But you better don’t go wandering where you shouldn’t ever again, hear me?”

-

As well as Naj hid it, William was no fool. He knew the amount of work that went into getting this place back to the exacting standards of the demon. Whether he’d done the work directly or merely coordinated all the efforts, the place deserved more praise than most realized. If Barbie wished to remain untouchable, then Will was more than willing to play into that illusion.

The old wolf grinned, letting out a chuckle. “Nothing is impossible, but you are pretty attractive.” He threw him a wink. It was far more than the physical that appealed to William. The were often flittered from one person and task to another, never spending all that much thought and time on anything. Getting to spend any extended amount of time with Naj was a compliment to both parties.

Will licked his lips. The ghost of tobacco lingered on his taste buds, leaving Will jonesing for a puff. It was ages since he quit, but sometimes he missed it. “Does that mean that you are gonna come down from on high and boogie woogie oogie with me?” Not that he ever expected the invitation to be well received. “Where exactly is off limits?”

A small scoff. “William.” Dark eyes landed on the trespassing Werewolf, following the trail of glitter and worked up security guards, already facing trouble on their first day. At least, they were smart enough not to step on the platform as well. Just an ice cold glare and a wave of his gloved hand was enough to let them off Will’s tail.

Not that it bothered his new guest in the least, now extra comfortably seated next to the host, staining the chair with scented glitter. Najelon sighed. “I just did, though. And you should be thankful for it.” The Demon raised his chin proudly. He looked back at Will, stared at him for a second. Nothing got passed the old wolf. Another reason why he was one of the few of his kin that Naj fancied. “It’s too soon for me to join the party, I’m just being a caring owner. You, on the other hand… Should be high as a kite by now, knowing your usual ways. Did you come straight to me?”

-

The wolf wrinkled his nose at the greeting. “Don’t call me that.” The last time that someone used his full name was his alpha reprimanding him for his behavior. Before that, it might have been his adopted parents. Hearing it from a former lover or one night stand or whatever it was, felt just wrong. “The place looks nice B T dubbs.”

His eyes watched the frazzled team leaving after barely a flick of Naj’s wrist. Such a gesture served as warning for those more cognizant of the danger Naj posed, but William hardly cared about such things. The wolf fought only when utterly necessary. The issue with the guards were just a bit of fun. “I headed here when I saw you.” First he’d indulged in some brightly colored pill offered to him by a beautiful youth wearing barely anything at all. Whatever it was had yet to kick in.

The Nepenthe Reopening | 01:41 am @calamitousstarters https://open.spotify.com/track/37kRP7ApXU1RUb2WO1OEj4?si=b466556a9ef249d6

Dark, lush and more enticing than ever, yet with a chilly feeling that warns you before stepping in. The Nepenthe looked richer and fuller than before, but it also spoke more clearly about the infernal being behind its wheel.

The reopening was a success, the club was filled to the brim and there was still a long line right at the gates. Tons of people waiting their turn to see what’s new and what remains the same. Najelon didn’t want to change it all, nor could his already emptied safe handle any more unnecessary excess. Still, the investment was worth it, he knew Raven had done her best to wipe off any sea remains, so he didn’t hold back with the expenses to honor her efforts.

Everything was going well, as expected, yet he had a nudging feeling, like he couldn’t let his guard down, not even a little, not even at his own home. Things hadn’t gone back to normal, not yet, perhaps not ever. Even the business that used to occur at the lowest level of the building was put on hold until time told of a promising profit. So, the Incubus stayed posted at his seat, the one only he and his special guests could use. Higher than others on a small platform before the main stage.

“Hiya Barbie!” Will plopped down in the seat next to Naj, completely unconcerned about the security detail that scrambled after him. There was no harm that he could cause other than leaving a trail of sparkle wherever he went. He’d have to thank the humans for the recent unearthing of scented body glitter. It was a game changer.

Rather than sit properly, Will swung his legs sideways off of the arm of the other chair. He studied Naj, noting something very different about him from the last few times that they had met. “I take it that you are still missing a few spaces on your Calamity event bingo card. You know that you can’t make something happen by glaring at people.” It was a nice opening. The sort of fun that William craved. Hopefully Naj was not preparing for an incident of some sort or turn to tides on the partygoers.

“then i’m sure we can find somewhere appropriate here. i’d say my place but… that’s certainly not appropriate.” he murmured, chewing on his lower lip as he looked over the other. matias chuckled as he helped the other up, hearing his words, “i mean i can tell you got some life in you, but i don’t want you injuring yourself more than you already are. take it easy, okay?” still, the wink made him smirk, tongue coming out to dart over and wet his lips. “c'mon, let’s go ask if they have a back room they can spare for a little while.”

-

He chuckled. “I take it that you are loud then.” He’d certainly had his own share of roommates in his youth that moved out within a few months of moving in. Usually it was from Will’s singing, but it was the same principle- sort of. “Now you are sounding like Doc.” He should heed the advice of those that knew better. Having to rely upon another to get around sounded like the worst punishment that he could think of, especially if that means that he couldn’t dance if he wanted to. “Yeah, yeah. Hand me my cane before you earn yourself a spanking.” He grinned at Matias’ enthusiasm. “And some Lysol wipes. I know what they did in those rooms last summer!”

How does your character react to stress situations? Defensively? Aggressively? Evasively?

It depends on the situation. If I can laugh it off, that is always my first choice. I'd have way more wrinkles if I took life seriously. A stressful situation involving one of those nearest and dearest to me being harmed is a whole nother matter. Anyone who hurts my babes don't get to live to tell the tale. And if they got hurt doing something stupid, I will still play nursemaid even when they cry out for someone else.

"It's not what it looks like." To be honest, there was little than anyone who had contact with the Syndico Pack would be surprised to find William doing. His escapades became part tall tale, part you had to be there. Still this was something new even by Will's standards. The shirt was unbuttoned to the point that one wrong move would open the entire thing. As for his pants, he had managed to get himself in, but he didn't know how to get himself back out. The camera that he'd been performing to was probably the thing that his friend objected to the most. Still with Jax busy, William found himself with plenty of time. Racking a hand through his hair, Will sat down in the chair, inviting Hollis to do the same. "I feel real things for a fake ass guy, and I'm way too old to play pretend." There it was out in the open. Now he would have to wait for Hollis' response to the romance cover-esq photoshoot that William attempted to recreate for his digital lover.
