(no subject)
[New Year's Eve Underground: Crowds everywhere; far-reaching sounds of merry chaos; heat and sweat; wild celebrations fueled by alcohol, fireworks, blood, death and sex.
New Year Day topside: Few about; quiet; cold and snow; City and surrounding areas sleeping off yesterday's effects.
With bottle of spiced blood wine (was to be the Lieutenant's Christmas gift) in hand, Luke visited Hall of the Missing. Walked thru the gallery, doing the usual pass-by checks and stopping only at those few he felt close to. The last one, also as usual, he lingered on for some time before exiting the building.
Next stop was at the graveyard. Sought out the Egyptain tomb and once again climbed it. Looked to the west at the City, then turned on the flat roof to sit facing the opposite direction.
Snowfall had ceased; eastern sky clear enough for sunrise. As the glowing disk peeked over the winter forest range, lone being from one particular world uncorked a bottle and silently toasted absent acquaintances and his brother.
