It's just one of those nights.

[onthe_threshold]

Agreed.

[captainsosa]

Hmmmm?

[Sorry she was lost in her beer.]

[onthe_threshold]

[He has a seat beside her and signals the bartender.]

Rough day.

[captainsosa]

You too huh?

[onthe_threshold]

Yeah. Not all bad, but... yeah.

[captainsosa]

[She polishes off the beer in hand.]

What, did the kid throw up on you?

[onthe_threshold]

No...

Just. You ever have someone offer you something? And it seems too good to be true?

[captainsosa]

Oh, yeah.

[onthe_threshold]

Yeah.

I dunno.

[captainsosa]

Don't make me pry for details Matt.

[onthe_threshold]

A friend suggested to me that maybe... He might know a way to make people understand, you know? I'm really bad at that.

[captainsosa]

[She furrows her brow a bit.]

Normally, I'd follow but I think I've drank a bit too much.

[onthe_threshold]

No, it's... nothing worth explaining, heh.

What's up with you?

[captainsosa]

I'll take your word for it.

[She shakes her head a bit, really not wanting to talk about it.]

[onthe_threshold]

...more beer?

[captainsosa]

More beer!

[At this rate he'd be driving her home.]

[onthe_threshold]

[He signals the bartender again.]

[captainsosa]

Thanks.

[She holds the bottle close.]

Sorry, I'm not better company tonight.

[onthe_threshold]

I don't mind, honest.

[captainsosa]

[She offers him a small smile.]

How goes things with the kid?

[onthe_threshold]

Well. He is officially ours.

[captainsosa]

Congrats.

[onthe_threshold]

Thank you. Turns out his first name is Carl.

[captainsosa]

Hopefully, he won't grow up to be a troublemaker.

[onthe_threshold]

I'd be shocked if he didn't, actually.
