Howard's spent the entire morning running around, making apologies for the weird way his friend was acting last night. No, he's not sure when Zouichi decided to grow a villainous goatee. Yes, he'll talk to Zouichi about fixing the section of the Med Bay that done got 'sploded. No, he didn't know Zouichi had kidnapped Sakura and tied her to a set of railroad tracks. Yes, Allenby, he's sure babies between you and Zouichi will be quite adorable. No, he doesn't know when the Warehouse got converted into a burlesque house and WAITWAITWHAT
Oh, Howard is so displeased with Zouichi right now.
Zouichi, for his part, was wiping down the bike, apparently oblivious to Howard's distress. He turned at the sound of Howard's voice, giving him a little wave. "Hey. What's what about?"
"Uh. The fact that you started running some kind of cathouse out of my home. The fact that Allenby has hickies the size of cockroaches on her. The fact that Sakura just put up a 'Wanted' poster for you for all the non-slop food on the ship. Um, I don't know, Zou, take your pick what's what about!"
He pauses. "At least you got rid of the trash stache and soulpatch."
Unfortunately for you, Soren, that whole bit where Punchy got eaten by rabid mutant wolves off the coast of a tropical island? Total fiction.
Which is why, as you come home from a funeral where someone thought it was a brilliant idea to play Notorious B.I.G.'s Life After Death over the loudspeakers for the whole ceremony, you find that Punchy's sprawled on your couch with a package of Sour Patch Kids.
"Yo, Skinny, mind if I stay on the down low here with you?"
"What. Are You. Doing." Oh god, he'd gotten Sour Patch Kids dust all over the immaculate black leather and --
"You're supposed to be dead!"
Given adequate time and warning, Soren might have been able to dredge up a modicum of relief that Punchy was alive. Just not now. With his feet up on the armrest.
"Yeah, about that." Punchy figures he's probably more likely to get Soren to agree with keeping him hidden if he doesn't put his boots up on the armrest, so at least he's just got feet with ill-fitting, stained socks on the armrest! "Uh, so I kinda got webbed up in some serious OG's over some stacks and needed to bust out...can I stay here? Please?"
