{ oo6 } Voice / Action

[Not filtered like a boss. Just another example of Cas' recklessness right here.]

This town's sure goin' to hell isn't it? Good thing I don't care, otherwise I'd have a real mess on my hands.

Well if anyone wants to enjoy a drink while this shit gets real, I'll be at the bar.

[Filtered to Finas]

Hey... uh. Figure maybe we should talk. I gotta head in ( Read more... )

That... is probably a good idea. What time do you get off work, and where would you like to meet?

bethebetterman October 22 2010, 05:07:34 UTC

Eleven. If you wanna meet me at the bar when I get off, we can walk to a place nearby. There's a restaurant just down the block.

action predatored October 22 2010, 05:15:16 UTC

That sounds fine, I'll meet you then.

[Doot de doo- convenient timeskip is convenient.

lt was turning eleven when he got to the bar, hand in his pocket and head lowered a bit. Sighing a bit as he waited, wondering how they were going to approach the subject.]

action bethebetterman October 22 2010, 05:20:58 UTC

[Once it turned eleven, Cas untied the apron at his hips and threw it over his shoulder, ready to get the hell out of there. He could never leave soon enough.

Spotting Finas, he walked out from behind the counter and grabbed his arm, tugging him out the door.]

Good, you're not late. Let's go, I'm starved. [He was just gonna play the "dodge the subject" game for a little while.]

action predatored October 22 2010, 05:27:59 UTC

[Well if he wanted to dodge the subject for now then that was fine with him. Letting himself get dragged along, it would probably be better to discuss it while seated anyway.]

When am I ever late?

action bethebetterman October 22 2010, 05:39:58 UTC

Hm. Good point.

[He didn't have much to say while they walked to the restaurant. He let go of Fin's arm once they were outside, and once they got to the place, considering the hour, they were seated quickly. He rolled up his sleeves and looked across the table at Finas, his voice lowered.]

... So. Uh, about the other night...

action predatored October 22 2010, 06:08:25 UTC

[Thankful for the late hour, that meant few people to eavesdrop on private business. Once seated he shrugged off his jacket.]

Yes... About that.

[A pause.]

I would like to know your honest thoughts on the matter, Casimiro.

action bethebetterman October 22 2010, 06:20:17 UTC

[He'd be lying if he said he was entirely confident about the subject they were delving into. He looked around subtly to make sure no one was around to eavesdrop.]

Sheesh, no pressure or anything. [Joked as he rubbed the back of his neck lightly. How should he go about this... Damn, and he thought he'd had it all planned out at the bar. Now he couldn't remember any of what he was going to say.]

My honest thoughts, huh. Well, I don't regret what we did, and uh... [His hand ran over his hair, gaze awkwardly averted to the window as his voice lowered.] I guess I'm kinda hoping you don't regret it either.

action predatored October 22 2010, 06:39:22 UTC

No... I don't regret it. We were sober and knew what we were doing so it would be redundant to regret a conscious act. However... [Hesitating then, unsure on how to articulate what he wanted to say.]

Was it the right thing to do, Cas?

[Voice softer.]

Was it just because of the trauma we experienced the day before, or... [Voice trailing off.]

action bethebetterman October 22 2010, 06:51:37 UTC

[Cas looked back at Fin and ran a hand over his mouth while he thought. Asking Cas about what was the right thing to do, Fin?]

Hell if I know what's right or not. But it's what I- what we wanted to do, and that's really all I give a damn about.

[He paused, voice reduced to a mere murmur as he looked straight at Finas.]

... It wasn't just from that on my end.

action predatored October 22 2010, 07:08:30 UTC

...Nor on my end. [Said finally as he let Cas' words and their meaning sink in, maintaining eye contact.]

What now then?

[He wanted to know how Cas felt and what he wanted before giving his own input. It was a rather heavy matter after all.]

action bethebetterman October 22 2010, 07:22:46 UTC

[This was tricky stuff they were getting into. But Casimiro did have enough confidence that no matter how awkward this conversation might get, their rock-solid friendship would stay in tact. He grinned a bit at Finas' answer.]

That's the question, isn't it. If we decide to do anything from here, this damn town's not gonna make it very easy. I'm open to suggestions...

[He wasn't much of a planner himself, and hadn't thought anything out further than what had progressed the other night.]

action predatored October 22 2010, 18:53:33 UTC

These things are never easy.

[He took the time to think about it now, because according to the time period they were in and how strict the town seemed to be... pursuing a homosexual relationship wouldn't end very well, would it? Then again they were able to have that night without any droning, perhaps if they kept things behind closed doors the town didn't care? Was all the sneaking around worth it? Taking the moment to watch the other man for a bit, thoughtful. No matter what their friendship would remain the same, they have been together far too long to let something like this ruin what they had.

Rubbing his face, feeling rather pensive. It was... a big thing.]

All I know... [Starting slow, since he was still planning out his next words carefully.] is that it has been a long time since I have felt... that. For anyone.

[Elbow on the table, chin in his palm as his attention turned to Casimiro again.]

...It seems like it would be a shame to forget and move on.

action bethebetterman October 22 2010, 19:58:13 UTC

[It was possible Finas could hear Cas' heartbeat increase after he'd said that, and his cocky grin softened into a genuine smile. A long time for Fin, sure, but Casimiro had never really felt like this before.]

Yeah... it'd be a damn shame. I say we go for it. Hell, what've we got to lose, an arm, a life? Tch, been there, done that.

[Although it would've been nice if Fin had his other arm back. He would've liked to grab for a hand right about now to emphasize his point. Oh well.]

I think it'll be worth it. Don't you?

action predatored October 22 2010, 21:12:00 UTC

I'm sure we'll be fine as we keep things behind closed doors, but really I don't see that being much of a problem.

[He couldn't see them having public displays of affection anyway. The smile almost caught him off guard, so used to the smirks and the cocky grins. He returned the smile with one of his own. Not as brief as his others usually were too.]

I do. Really I don't see it being much different than how we already are.

action bethebetterman October 22 2010, 22:29:21 UTC

Good, guess that settles it!

[The waitress interrupted to get Cas' order, and he just handed her the menu saying "surprise me- oh and a beer", before turning to Finas again.]

Probably won't be too much of a difference at all. I'd like to get my vampirism back soon though, so I can at least be awake when you are. [That was looking to be inconvenient. He was already exhausted and Finas was probably just starting his evening.]
