Hmm already having flashbacks? I thought it would take longer
English
-
You startled him, he jumped a bit, looking over at you then smiling, playing dumb. "Flashbacks? What are you talking about?"
-
You spaced out for several seconds
-
"A man can't think?" He chuckled a bit as he took another sip.
-
There's a difference in body language between thinking and recollections of memory
-
He nods. "Yeah...I guess there is." He adjusts his feet, looking down. He looks up again and makes eye contact as he starts speaking. "Alright, I was having a flashback....not a pretty one."
-
Besides I can smell the chemical changes in your hormones and if there's a sudden change I know something is wrong
-
He drinks from his glass again silently.

[b]stares at him then walks over to a bookshelf[/b]
-
He looks over at you, sipping at his glass again.
-
[b]pulls a large book off the shelf and tosses it to him[/b]
-
He catches the book with one hand, holding his glass with the other. He inspect the book.
-
[b]its abnormally heavy[/b]
-
He looks at you then sets his glass down on a nearby table and begins flipping through the book.
-
[b]after 6 pages he discovers it's a hollow book with a very old bottle of whiskey[/b]
-
He smiles, shaking his head and grabbing the bottle. "Lethal, you son of a bitch."
-
That could be taken as a compliment this time
-
"It could." He smiles and downs the rest of his glass, pouring the ungodly old whiskey into his now empty glass. He offers some to you as well.
-
I'm fine I'll start drinking when I find a legitimate reason not to
-
He nods, taking a sip of the brew. "Goddamn...waited to drink that for so long. Easy the best I've ever had."
-
Tell me something...how is it that you're able to love one person then another after their demise?
-
He sighes, looking down then back up, swirling his drink around in his glass. "I uh...never really forget, I just....cope. I adjust to that feeling and keep going, well not anymore." He takes a long drink of the whiskey.
-
I understand...if you ever need help dealing with some things I'm here [b]pulls out a pocket watch and observes the time[/b] 5 minutes and the desert is ready
-
He nods, pulling the glass from his face. "Sounds good."
-
Lets just hope Finny doesn't eat it all
-
"One can only hope with that man..." He chuckles.
