"I'm alright, but even better now that you're here." [b][i]Angelo said smiling to Blake. He truly did enjoy just being with him.[/i][/b]

Blake grinned, "So these are the Celtic isles."
-
"Little chilly, but overall it's nice. Plenty of good food, drink and good looking people all around, including yourself."
-
The Titan chuckled, "Yeah, you're apart of that group, too."
-
[b][i]He smiled a bit at the compliment.[/i][/b] "Thanks. You got time for drinks?" [b][i]Angelo asked.[/i][/b]
-
"Time? I've got nothing but time."
-
"Well then, drinks are on me. I owe you for that time with Lohi, after she picked the locks." [b][i]He said, laughing a bit as he gestured to the seat next to him for Blake to sit. He looked to the server, a younger man with pale skin and short red hair, his eyes deep brown. He was fairly good looking as Angelo spoke to him[/i][/b] "Top shelf rum, surprise me."
-
"Middle shelf Beer, Jim Bean," Blake ordered. The Titan seemed antsy. He was drumming his fingers on the table. His foot tapped the ground.
-
[b][i]Angelo was a marksman, his eyesight and attention to detail was pretty good. He noticed the signs, but decided not to mention it just yet. He smiled, looking over at Blake in an attempt to comfort him. Soon their drinks came, just as they had ordered[/i][/b]
-
Blake took a sip of his beer.
-
[b][i]Angelo did the same, taking a long sip of his drink before starting it down. He lauded a moment before laughing a bit.[/i][/b] "You ever just sit back and realize how crazy life is?"
-
"It's pretty crazy. You die over and over and you have fun by killing others in combat. I'm crazy, I know."
-
"Nah. We're soldiers. We love doing what we do cause it keeps people safe, and cause we're getting rid of evil in the world. Plus for you it's like sparring. There's no major consequences in the end, lest that ghost of yours gets broken."

-
[b][i]Angelo decided to hazard the question after he took another sip of his drink.[/i][/b] "Hey, you ok?" [b][i]He said with a bit of concern. He wanted to make sur this lover was alright, was happy.[/i][/b]

-
"Take the time to train then. Learn your opponents moves, figure out their tech, work on ways to counter them. Next time a tourney comes on, you'll be able to kick there asses more than you already would've." [b][i]He said smiling a bit.[/i][/b] "If there's anything I can to to help cheer you up, just name it. Anything."
-
"Not at the moment, that I can think of."
-
"Well, let me know if I can." [b][i]He said smiling a bit. He took another sip of his drink.[/i][/b]
-
Blake silently drank fron his beer.
-
[b][i]Blake might notice how comfortable Angelo was, the fact that it would be easy to tell the two were lovers with how close they sat, the glances Angelo had exchanged. Seems he had finally gotten over his fear of people seeing them together.[/i][/b]
-
Blake was an oblivious Titan, and didn't notice at first. He grinned, "Hey. You seem perky today."
-
"I've got my love sitting next to me, a drink in hand, and I got to entertain people. Plus I'm pretty sure the tender's giving me a look." [b][i]He said, the last part quietly, More of a joke anyways[/i][/b] "Other than not getting to see you kick ass, what's there to be upset about?"
-
"Good point," Blake said. He looked into Angelo's eyes for a minute.
-
[b][i]Angelo would gaze back, smiling still. There was something mystifying about him, something that made him strange. He was outgoing about most things but was very shy truly, acting brash and bold to impress but really he was a man of compassion and care. He eventually broke the lover's gaze, looking off a bit to the side and down[/i][/b]

"Oh, I'm supposed to stop staring?" the Titan asked, his obsidian black hair flapping in the wind.
