Duo opens the door to his closet and finds Milliways instead. He stares at it, momentarily confused. He's managed to change out of his Preventers uniform, but his braid is still bedraggled. It's been a long day at work. Give the boy a break.
He looks back at his apartment. He'd have to actually cook and make his bed and things if he stayed there. No contest. He pushes the door shut with his foot and drags himself over to the bar.
"Coffee, please. Strong enough to stand a spoon in, and enough sugar to give a romance novel an insulin rush." The bar understands his metaphors well enough, and he gets coffee that apparently meets his standards, because he empties half the mug with one gulp, despite the temperature.
He nurses the rest a little slower, and tries to think what would taste good.
