Re: 2/2

[In the amount of time it took for Miguel to come back, Kaine had gotten bored and explored their hotel room. The complimentary tea and coffee, the kitchenette, the bathroom.

The mirror in the bathroom...


He stands there for a while, taking in his reflection. It wasn't that long ago when he only saw himself when he looked in the mirror. Now who was he? Peter, Aracha, Kaine... all three stared back at him.

...God. He needed a shower. He'd spent the last week or so in a stupor, either depressed or drunk or both. Not a lot of time for personal hygiene. Who knows when Miguel would be done chatting up the locals, anyway.

By the time he does come back, it's to the sound of a shower running. Kaine can faintly hear what he's saying through the walls - knows enough to rinse off and finish up. Gotta towel off his hair.

Muffled, from the bathroom:]

But did you get the booze?
