[PT-PP-F02] Of Baggage and Beginnings...

[Freyd 0]

Head still buzzing, amber liquid sloshing around the glass re-summoned to do its duty as he foolishly tested the limits of a glitch that left him with an inexplicable condition flashing in the corner of his interface. Freyd was mildly inebriated, at least by his own unreliable assessment.  Another sip, flavour full of burning, yet mostly smooth, he clenched his teeth after swallowing it down.  Like that might somehow help or something?  Elora had been blissfully patient and kind, but bringing home another woman wasn't exactly the sort of thing a partner would ignore, nor should expect to without thorough explanation.  It just wasn't one Freyd was looking forward to providing while drunk, even if only a teeny-weeny tad so.  Mari being Mari was an added complication, plus their history, plus the glaring Eye of Sauron hovering over her head.  The drifting edges of his brain wondered if her cursor opened like a cats' eye when she slept. 

That would be so cool, but also totally Sauron....

"Thanks for your help," he offered, a little more woozily and glassy-eyed than she'd ever seen him.  "Mari... that's Mari, by the way," his thumb jerked behind him accidentally pointing towards Reliq, who'd embedded himself into her favourite cookie jar.  "Anyway... she put herself in jail, see, for like two years.  Because..."  double barrel finger twirls pointed over this head, where his own green cursor fizzled momentarily like an aging neon sign. Anyone might legitimately expect the 'r' in his name to go out at any moment, with supremacy of irony if his own consciousness were to Feyd at the very same moment.

"So... she got out... got let out?  Made it out, somehow, and we ran into each other in the twenty-nines..." Brows furrowed, trying to piece together what that meant.  "But she's in a bad way.  And we go way back, so like... way-way, you know?  And I was so mean to her back then, because I thought she was so cool, and I saw her in this trippy dream once, that couldn't have been a dream, because, like... everybody had it. The dream.  She was like... wow!  And everybody had that same dream!  That was so weird... and she looked like she could such a good leader..."

The last of the latest tumbler content sloshed down his throat, eroding the only remaining vestiges of his equilibrium, leaving only a rather wobbly Whisper behind.  "But she'jj really nishe, in a self-deshtwuctive 'I don't wanna murder peoples no more' kinda way.  And she could jdoo sho mush good if she jush shtopped shabotajing hershelf, yanno?"

A tiny hiccup nearly bowled him over.

"Sho, I figures, she jush weely needsh a plashe to cwash for a bit until she can short shome shtuff out... and then... and... then..."

*THUNK*

That was as far as he would get, at least until morning, when the toll would come due and no amount of antidotes could ever possibly suffice.  Head resting between his own forearm and the tile on the kitchen island, the Whisper in Shadow snored like a drunken purring kitten as he slept.  Inside his noodley noggin, dreams were turning into tangled green and orange hair-like webs, from which he feared he would could find no escape...
