Cooper's not expecting Milliways.

[OOM: The Sheep]

But in Soviet Russia the Isle of Man, Milliways expects you.

Cooper notices immediately where he is (not in the pub in the village) and heads straight for the bar. Here, soon enough, he'll be seeing Wells and Spoon and that means he can have more than just a drink.

Happy frickin' day.

Wells found himself locked out of his usual room, but there was a note from the Bar waiting when he came back down to complain, saying that he'd better look at the number on the key the Bar gave him. Annie, it seemed, has been staying in one of the suites for several days.

That's two reasons to be back in the land of hot showers again.

He's down here now, though- finally- washed and shaved and dressed. And will you look there- "Cooper!" he calls out, sticking up a hand.

[krazyglusurgeon]

Cooper sticks up a hand, but says nothing, choosing instead to work on one of his pints.

He needs it.

HE REALLY NEEDS IT.

[milkbonesoldier]

Wells isn't about to argue. He's just sitting down next to Cooper.

They don't have beer in ancient Greece.

Bastards.

[krazyglusurgeon]

He slides one of his pint glasses over.

He can share.

[milkbonesoldier]

Wells accepts the glass and raises it in a grateful salute.

Nothing wrong with wine, you understand, or even that retsina shit, but dammit, he missed the beer.

[krazyglusurgeon]

He gets one back.

"Where were you?"

[milkbonesoldier]

"Ancient Greece," Wells says. "I'm fucked if I know how or why. You?"

[krazyglusurgeon]

"Dead. And in soggy, rotting-fish Hell."

[milkbonesoldier]

Wells thinks for a bit. Then he pats the bartop.

"His next two're on me."

[krazyglusurgeon]

He nods a couple of times before giving his Sarge a grin.

"Got the girl," he says quietly.

[milkbonesoldier]

"Congratulations," Wells says. "How'd you work that?"

[krazyglusurgeon]

"Ran here."

[milkbonesoldier]

Up goes one eyebrow, but Wells just nods and turns his attention to his beer. Cooper'll talk or not, as he likes. You don't push a man for conversation when he's getting over being dead.

[krazyglusurgeon]

"Spoon tell you about the demon sheep?"

[milkbonesoldier]

"Yeah, he mentioned that," Wells says. "Before he disappeared, anyways."

[krazyglusurgeon]

Blink.

"Disappeared?"
