“Hmm he could but he’s busy at the moment so it’s just the two of us. Sorry to pry you away from the alcoholic that punched you in the face.” he said in an amused tone, casually pouring himself another drink.

He grinned at his friend before taking a few more shots. He didn’t bring all this alcohol to just slowly take a few shots. He’s making sure that both of them leave this room inebriated or even stay in the room that way. Before filling his glass for the third time, he quickly topped up Dino’s. Had to make sure the glass was completely full.

“Hah, it’s fine. At least one of us is responsible…” he trailed off and heaved a sigh. “And he’d probably punch me again, now that I think about it…”

Dino muttered a small ‘thank you’ before draining his glass. Years of attending social gatherings had left him with a decent tolerance for alcohol, which was something to be thankful for at occasions such as this one. “Well, you can at least distract me with telling me how you guys have been doing, maybe.”

The Varia swordsman merely watched the other down his glass like nothing, thinking that Dino and Xanxus would make pretty good drinking partners. Soon enough he downed his own. He always seemed to enjoy the warmth that hard liquor gave him. It was especially nice in the winter. As for the taste, he has grown accustomed to that over the years.

“Well if that’s what you think then that’s fine. It’s not my place to tell you what to think or do. But I understand if you don’t want to be a bother, just don’t think of yourself as one regardless of what you feel, say or do. You’re just acting on what you believe in and even if that makes most people weaklings, it’s the right that everyone has. For now, just relish the fact that you’re single and the ladies want ya!” Sounding serious as first, but ending loudly with an obnoxious laugh to lighten the mood.

“I suppose,” he muttered, hand nursing his glass of whiskey. “Grazie, Squalo.” He took a languid sip before speaking up again in a tone almost too hesitant to suggest, “Xanxus should join us.”

His eyes were focused elsewhere until Squalo even suggested the last idea, making him laugh genuinely for the first time since they started talking. “Hm, that’s a thought.”

He gave a loud of snort of amusement, shaking his head slowly. “I’ll grab both then. Just give me a moment.” In a few moments time, Squalo came back carrying a few large bottles of some of the finest hard Italian liquor. Almost too much for him to carry.

“That’s the problem with you. You give up too easily but I guess if that’s the way you want things then that’s just how it will be. Live for today, die for tomorrow. Since tomorrow will always stay as tomorrow. It never seems to come. Or something..” He didn’t really even know what he was saying anymore and hoped it made sense to Dino more than it did to himself.

Meanwhile, Dino got up to fetch a pair of whiskey glasses, then proceeded to gingerly taking one of the bottles from Squalo, opening it and pouring drinks for the both of them. He promptly drained his glass soon afterwards, feeling the alcohol leave a trail hot against his throat, making him furrow his brows in slight disdain.

Well, the first shots were always uncomfortable.

He snorted. “I got what you meant, and it’s not that I’m giving up,” Dino started pouring himself another shot, “More like I don’t really want to be a bother… I guess. He’s fine. I’ll be fine, eventually. Then everything will just fall back into place again.”

“So what kind of drink would you like? Nothing too fancy like those dumb mixed drinks either.” He rolled his eyes and flicked the blonde’s forehead. “Well it’s no problem, just don’t expect this to become a habit, Cavallone. I won’t always be there to make you get over him. But all I can really say is that if you do love the kid, then try showing it to him again and maybe things will improve?”

“Something hard.” He muttered, not feeling the need for a round of cocktail drinks, either. And as an afterthought, he added: “Scotch or whiskey.”

Dino rubbed at his forehead with a nervous laugh, and shook his head. “I don’t think that’d be a good idea. I mean, it was nice while it lasted, I just have to it let go now…”

“I know, I know. He’s a dumb brat that made a bad decision. One day he might realize how much he needs you but all you can really do is be a damn good tutor to him!” he announced, slinging an arm around the other’s shoulders for a bit of added comfort. “Tsk.. but you technically have quite awhile ago. Or did you forget when I appeared on your doorstep that night?”

“Hm, who knows. But yeah, you’re right…” He replied, a mirthless chuckle lacing his voice. “Just let me, alright? You know how I don’t really like being indebted… and, well, I guess I really needed this talk this time around so, thank you.”

A small grin. “Well, I kind of figured. Kids change. No one can help that. But he doesn’t know what he’s missing out on.” Squalo paused for a moment, then tilted his head slightly. “How about a few drinks? My treat.”

“Hah, I suppose…” a pained expression crossed Dino’s face, came back and camped there. “Still, I wouldn’t miss seeing him grow for the world. That much, I think I can grant myself.” He turned back to look at Squalo, and nodded curtly. “Sure. Only if you agree that I’ll repay you the gesture some other time.”

“Nothing, nothing.” The Cavallone boss raised his hands defensively, a small smile on his face which he hoped to God came off as reassuring. “It’s fine, I was just feeling a little… nostalgic, is all.”

“Nostalgic? Tch, how lame.” He let out a long sigh and hesitantly gave Dino a pat on the shoulder. “Is it about him? Or am I wrong?”

Dino raised a brow, “I swear, you surprise me sometimes.” A sigh escaped from his lips. “Yeah…it is.”

sharkyvoiboy replied to your photo: Sometimes, that’s just the way things are: things…

“Oi, Dino! What the hell are you going on about?” He didn’t want to admit that he had a slight worry for his friend but like hell, he’d tell anyone about that.

“Nothing, nothing.” The Cavallone boss raised his hands defensively, a small smile on his face which he hoped to God came off as reassuring. “It’s fine, I was just feeling a little… nostalgic, is all.”
