Jay feels like some company tonight. Or at least being where there are other people. Being alone in his own head just seems like a bad idea right now. He finds himself a seat with his back to a wall, toying with something small and sparkly with a distracted air.

Come bother him as much as you like.

Well, that really wasn't fun. Rae supposes she couldn't truly expect the weather to hold off for a little thing like her fighting for her life, but it would've been nice if it had been a little more considerate, you know? Con had been impervious to the icy rain - of course he had - but Rae's experience had been a little more... well, human. Her fingers, slicked with blood and exposed to the elements, had soon gone numb and clumsy. It hadn't been an easy night. When they had returned to her apartment, her only thoughts were of the hot shower she was about to have. The three hot showers she wanted to take in succession, and the long, soaking bath she wanted directly after, and the twelve hours or more of sleep she wanted after that. So what if that would put her waking up around sunset tomorrow.

But the door to her bathroom, of course, has other ideas.

Rae shuffles into the bar today, exhausted, soaking wet, and shivering. Her black sweater and sweatpants cling to her, sodden and still dripping as the ice melts. There is ice in her hair from the sleet that had gotten caught in it, and she smells of cold sweat and blood. The melting ice and rain may have washed much of the blood from her, but some of it remains, and the scrapes and minor injuries that show where her sweater has been torn still bleed sluggishly.

"Unnnnnngh," Rae makes an exhausted noise of complaint in her throat as she sees where she is. She hadn't been expecting Milliways. Now she has an entire set of stairs to climb before she can reach her shower. Why so cruel, universe?

As Enzo opens the Door this evening, a small flying nautilus zips through ahead of him.

"Good boy!" he exclaims. "Man, I wish I'd gotten you sooner."

Duo comes into Milliways with a briefcase, backpack, and an over-stuffed duffel bag. He drags all of it up to the bar, shucks his long black coat, and then spots the note.

"Really?" he says. "I'm on paid leave that only just managed not to be suspension, and you're already trying to recruit me?" He reads the reply. "Well, if you say so."

He dumps his stuff behind the bar and washes his hands before chalking up a few specials.

SPECIALS
Mulled Cider
Hot Chocolate (alcoholic or non)
Pomegranate and Cranberry Punch

He doesn't notice the small letters that curl into shape under his own square handwriting:

 Twenty-four hours after this conversation:


Javert can be found in a chair by the Observation Window, staring out into Hell with a smile on his face. One might think he were in a kind of rapture, though his head jerks from side to side occasionally, as if pushing an errant thought away. He hasn't been to work, and has barely moved from this seat.

He might not welcome interruption, but it might be for his own good.

There's a figure in ornate reddish gold armour peering at the bar.

"Duuuude. You totally picked a great time to show up. Harsh week has been harsh, man."

Botherable.
