Slouching in a booth.

Coffee with three sugars don't help--

With massive hangover.

Try a glass of water

and two aspirin, set down

with deliberate care.

"Thank you, sweetheart." He pushes away the cup of coffee, accepts the asprin. Pops them into his mouth, one and two, and swallows them dry. Throat coated. Chased with a drink of water.

"You're welcome, dear."

She takes a seat across from him, keeping her voice to low volume.

"Must have been some party."

A smile twitches across his mouth and fades, his tone faintly wry when he murmurs back, "It wasn't."

"It was the Atlantean."

"Ah."

She offers a sympathetic smile. "The morning after that is never fun."

"It was an interesting way to use time." With an absent shrug of the shoulders.

She grins.

"Oh, it always is. The aftermath is just a painful sort of interesting."

"It was vivid," he agrees. Smirks. "I might have had an epiphany, but I was so drunk, I forgot it."

"One of the other pitfalls of Atlantean--the moments of genius you'll never remember."

"Such a shame," He drawls, and stretches out across the bench. "Next time, I might have to write it down."

She nods.

"Yes, but could you read your handwriting in the morning?"

"I don't think so." With a sigh, he shakes his head. "It just breaks my heart."

She reaches over to pat his hand lightly.

"There, there. I'm sure you'll persevere."

He quietly removes his hand, "In certain things."

Eyes her. Shakes his head again.

She arches an eyebrow, expression vaugely amused.

"I forgot. Human contact is like loud noises when you're hungover."

Vague nod, and he slouches farther. "Offering grilled salmon teriyaki when you're not even hungry," he mutters. He might be sulking.
