Hello again. ST has decided to try and silence me- TOO BAD ⋆˖⁺‧₊˗ˏˋ ✸ ˎˊ˗ ₊‧⁺˖⋆ TWs!: Mentions of alc0h0lism and alc0hol drinking! ⋆˖⁺‧₊˗ˏˋ ✸ ˎˊ˗ ₊‧⁺˖⋆ Legs sighed loudly as he leaned against the cool glass of the window , watching the landscape zoom by as he took a sip from the flask in his hand. He looked up as the train car door opened and a young man stepped in , a suitcase in one hand and a coat under his arm. He gave Legs a nervous smile and sat down opposite to him. Legundo couldn't help but notice the bandages around any of his exposed skin “/Bandages are likely for protection. Some sort of dermatitis or other infection of the skin/” He thought , before he realized he was staring at the newcomer’s arms. “Oh- Uh , Hello.” Legs said cheerfully “I’m Legundo , But you can call me Legs!” He extended his hand out for them to shake. The other wrinkled up his nose slightly “Legundo…? What kind of a name is that?” They stared at Legundo’s hand for a moment before looking back up at his face. Legs had to admit , that stung . But he kept his cool “It’s actually my last name. I’m a doctor , so- Doctor Legundo- Plus , I don’t really care for my first name.” He pulled back his extended hand , it was obvious he wasn’t going to get a handshake from this new person. “Ah….Well- Owen. Owen Miller- Nice to meet you? I think-” Legs studied Owen’s face for a moment before going about his business , looking back out the window and drinking from his silver-grey flask. ⋆˖⁺‧₊˗ˏˋ ✸ ˎˊ˗ ₊‧⁺˖⋆ Owen sighed a bit as he looked at his living arrangements in the small and cramped train car. Not only did he have to share a room with a weirdo , but the weirdo was a heavy drinker- He could smell it on him. Even a human probably could. He sat down on the thin mattress and yawned quietly , staring at the paper thin half wall that separated him and the doctor. “Mm- Night-” The other said , his speech slightly slurred as he flicked the room light off as he and Owen lay down. Owen lay awake in bed for around an hour before silently creeping out of the room , and venturing off to find what room Louis was sleeping in. ⋆˖⁺‧₊˗ˏˋ ✸ ˎˊ˗ ₊‧⁺˖⋆ “Psst! Louis!” Owen hissed , standing over the auburn haired vampire. He was snoring loudly and Owen was getting fed up- He grabbed Louis by the shoulders and shook him , waking Louis up with a jolt. “I- HUH-?!” He yelled before Owne slapped a hand over his mouth “SUSH!” He hissed , just loud enough to get his point across. “Why- Love….Why-” Louis mumbled , sitting up. “I got roomed with a weirdo- Louis- I got roomed with a /weirdo/- There’s something wrong with him and I can’t tell what it is….” The vampire on the bed before him sighed and rolled his eyes “Oh , Good grief , Owen- Come here-” He lifted the blanket next to him in an invitation for Owen to snuggle , which he took almost immediately. Louis tucked his fledgling into the crook of his arm , running a gentle hand though his hair. Owen closed his eyes like a content cat and snuggled close to his partner “I can’t believe they put us in separate rooms-” ⋆˖⁺‧₊˗ˏˋ ✸ ˎˊ˗ ₊‧⁺˖⋆
