Sam found himself on a bar stool- lit cigarette in hand and glass of scotch to his left. He neither drank often or smoked at all- but times were different and so was he. Paige was undoubtedly dead at this point, as was the immortal Jay and the impossible Elizabeth. He had seen the latter's body, and no one had heard or seen a hide or hair (or feather) of his younger sister. The team was broken up, Jeb back in school and Mels back in Kentucky- going to physical therapy three times a week. Sam had failed them all, and it was time to drink.

Not even women posed the same interest as they once had, no longer were they beautiful adventures for him to explore. They were distractions, something to keep him from planning a revenge on Charles, and a revenge on Erik. The woman ordering next to him was no different - even if she was well... different. He glanced over to her- attempting to take a long drag before speaking.

It failed, and he coughed for almost a minute, turning red as he spoke. "... let me- let me get that."

Nova looked over at the man before reaching over to take the cigarette from his hand. "Soon as you can breathe again," she teased warmly before taking a drag and blowing the smoke into the air. She handed the cigarette back to him before accepting the beer from the bartender.

She opened the beer and took a sip before setting it back down. No matter how deep into space they went, alcohol was always best on earth. Resting her cheek in her hand, she turned to look at Sam with interest. He was a handsome guy and she had been trapped on a spaceship with a dragon, a silver alien and Scott, who had enough women troubles.

"I'm Nova," she offered holding out her hand. Frankie was a name she found herself using less and less.

He couldn't tell if 'Nova' was a code-name or not. It was just on the cusp of a real name these days- but if she was trying to assume his side by his reply, tonight was not the night for an honest answer. "C.B." He replied, taking her hand within his own. Already the man had drank his share of beer- doing his best to combat with any attempts at healing his liver threw at him.

"You from 'round here?"

"Was, once upon a time," she said looking around. "I've been gone for...gosh, feels like forever." Space did that to you. Made you lose track of time, see ghosts.

Letting go of his hand, Nova grinned. "What about you, Handsome? You from around here?" She knew he wasn't, accent and mannerisms alone told the tale but she wanted to hear it from him.
