Video 003

[actualwizard]

[Billy's face appears on the screen, it's clear he's worried. It's also kind of obvious he hasn't slept; dark circles rim his tired eyes. He looks exhausted and not at all like his normal bright self.]

Uh, has anyone seen my boyfriend? Tall, blond, incredibly too good looking for me, answers to the name Teddy. I seem to have misplaced him.

[Or he was still avoiding Billy. Or the real reason he couldn't find him was that he'd been sent home, home before they could even talk about what happened. Before he could apologize...at least Teddy wouldn't remember anything.]

If you see him, tell him...just tell him I'm looking for him.



Private text to Kate.

Tell me you're still here. I can't lose you too Katie.

(OOC: Action is also fine if you want to find him wandering around looking for Teddy. He could use the distraction :) Edit: He's also apparently now at the bar, someone keep him from drinking too much? Yeah? )

No! I'm... God I'm an idiot! I shouldn't have... I was stupid. [He knows that Billy has a boyfriend, that's why he's here! And he'd still... He was an awful person.]

[actualwizard]

Hey, no, it's- I mean I kissed you back. It's ok, we're drunk and you're cute and yeah. Too much vodka. Stupid vodka.

[voiceinthedark]

[Sam gives a watery laugh, and looks about as miserable as it's possible to get.]

I should know better.

[actualwizard]

[Oh, Sam. Billy reaches out for him. ]

If he wasn't here...or well not here but. I should know better too.

[voiceinthedark]

[Sam takes a shuddering breath and looks back up, catching Billy's hand. He manages a watery smile.]

Sorry. It's not- we are so drunk.

[actualwizard]

[Billy can't help but move forward, wrapping his free arm around Sam and bringing him close. He looks like he's about to cry and Billy feels awful. He leans his forehead against Sam's resisting the urge to comfort him by kissing him again. That would help no one.]

So drunk.

[voiceinthedark]

[Sam curls against Billy, letting out a heavy sigh and closing his eyes. He feels stupid now, stupid for doing it, stupid for reacting like this.

He laughs weakly.]

Haven't been this kind of drink for ages. Not since- since Alice.

[actualwizard]

Whose Alice?

[Hes hesitant when he asks but too curious. He tightens his hold on Sam, bringing him closer.]

[voiceinthedark]

[They end up curled next to each other, Sam's head resting against Billy's shoulder. It's comfortable. It feels nice.]

She's- she was- we had a thing. She was amazing. Funny and smart and way way out of my league.

[actualwizard]

Was this before or after...everything?

[voiceinthedark]

After. She was the old Runner Five. I mean, the third Runner Five. The current one, they're my fourth.

[actualwizard]

[ So that means... ]Oh, Sam. I'm sorry.

[voiceinthedark]

[Sam shrugs, the pain now is a dull throb every time he thinks about her. It's been months. It's been months and sometimes he still feels like he'll wake up and she'll be there.]

I sent her out to the hospital and she- she never came back. I mean, not as a human anyway.

I had to watch them shoot her to help Five escape.

[actualwizard]

[ Billy doesn't say anything, he isn't sure theres anything he could say that Sam hasn't already heard. So he just pulls him closer and drops a kiss on his lips, briefly. Giving what comfort he can. ]

[voiceinthedark]

[Sam sighs and manages a smile when Billy kisses him. He slumps and rests his head against Billy's shoulder.]

Sorry. I was meant to be here to make you feel better.

[actualwizard]

Don't apologize, clearly we both needed someone tonight.

[voiceinthedark]

Yeah. Looks that way.

[He presses one last kiss against Billy's neck before straightening up a little and reaching for the bottle.]

We are gonna be so hungover tomorrow.

[actualwizard]

"I could always will the worst of it away. Or I could try, I've never actually done that before, but I can sometimes heal people when I want to. Shouldn't be too different?

[voiceinthedark]

Sam gave him a sceptical look. "Is when you're already wasted really a good idea to be trying out something that messes with your head?"

[actualwizard]

"I meant in the morning. No magic when drunk, its a rule."

[voiceinthedark]

"Heh, are you sure? I mean... what if we wanted more booze? Or like... what if we wanted a joint or something? Could you make it appear?"

[actualwizard]

"I mean we could just ask the closets, but I could," He pauses. "I've never actually had a joint before."

[voiceinthedark]

"There was a settlement a couple of miles away from Abel," Sam says, and Billy will hopefully not question the 'was', "loads of teenagers. Grew their own weed. We uh... traded a lot of stuff with them."

[actualwizard]

Billy laughed. "That doesn't surprise me at all. I wonder if the closets would give you weed."

[voiceinthedark]

"A lot of it was medicinal. Some of it was definitely recreational." Sam grinned at him. "Well, they'll give me vodka. Can't hurt to try."
