I need a stiff drink and a stiffer cock if you’re game.

[redforce]

Bad night?

( rhetorical, because he can feel the anger emanating from hawk like fresh rope burn flaring under his skin. )

You know I'd never turn down a drink.
Lucky for you, I've got a bottle of cognac with your name on it.

( acquired under less than reputable circumstance. yes, he stole it from giles. )

[homosexuals]

Understatement of the year.

[he probably feels it better than anyone else here except for tim, on the receiving end.]

My kinda man. Where are you? I'll head over.

Your wife is apparently a fan, by the way.

[redforce]

He has good taste, then. ;-)
But I can only imagine that puts you at greater odds with Tim.
Set's favor isn't something he holds in very high regard.

( or any regard. )

I'll meet you at our tent.

And I don't expect Set will be back for some time, if that worries you.

[homosexuals]

Tim is friends with plenty of people I don't have a very high opinion of, and I've managed to keep it together. If he can't do the same, we're in worse shape than I thought.

It doesn't. Think he'd ever want to watch?

[he's on the move. shanks can probably feel the angry, steely blue of his temper inching closer.]

( despite currently being in of one of the most stable relationships in saltburnt (somehow), shanks is, frankly, the last person who should be giving relationship advice — so while he thinks to say you've figured it out before, you'll do it again ... he is not emotionally equipped to have that conversation.

and, a conversation isn't what hawk asked him for, anyway. )

He does love a show.
Do you want to wait and ask him yourself?

( as shanks nears his tent, that steely blue clouds his senses for a brief moment, like the dark swell of an incoming tsunami, a storm headed directly for shore. hawk needs somewhere safe to make landfall, to rage without consequence, and shanks intends to give him that. he's a pirate, after all — he's meant to weather storms. )
