This will end well [During Shore Leave, open to anyone who wants to have a wild and crazy time]

[grimbiker]

Harry was gone. He’d been repodded not long after their last conversation. That hadn’t gone well. After hearing the truth behind his brother’s death, Sirius had put as much space between him and everyone else as possible. If he’d known that would be the last time he would see Harry…

Harry was still alive but his absence stung. Sirius had no reason to pretend he was all right anymore. He’d put on a brave face for his godson, told himself he had to be strong for him. Now that he was gone what did it matter?

After sulking isolating himself for days there was only one logical way to deal with his grief. Drink as much as humanly possible and then drink some more. And if he could find other drugs on this planet that was all the better.

It didn’t take him long to find a bar. Most of the drinks were designed for humans (although there were a fair number for the Kanil and Helians, as well as other races that frequently visited) but Sirius recognized none of them. And as far as he could tell, they all tasted awful. It seemed some tastes didn’t translate across worlds. He didn’t care.

"That's a longer look than a minute or two." Sirius didn't know how to feel about that. He was fairly sure he should give a damn, and maybe he did. He did feel odd but like he hadn't done worse. Including causing mayhem in the market and cause a drop in sales for the day. Oh well. He could just spend the rest of his money there once he was done having fun elsewhere.

"Let me know if you find out anything exciting." He stretched his arms. "Any other stunts you want me to pull?"

[splendid_roman]

"I will. I never intended to take it, but I didn't want to leave a dead one and have them wonder about it." Although that excuse sounded weak even to Ian. It was too late to take it back now though.

"I think that's probably enough damage for one day. And I think people might notice the stray if he came back to do more damage, assuming you could find him again."

[grimbiker]

That was a weak excuse but Sirius shrugged. There wasn't much to do about it now. He had no intention of landing himself behind bars for any period of time.

"Oh, I have more up my sleeve than a scruffy but lovable stray." He said lightly. "But if you insist."

"I don't want to get thrown off this planet. It's been a while since I've been off Stacy and we don't know how long we'll have until the next shore leave." As much as he was curious about what Sirius had up his sleeve, there were other, completely legal things, to do on the planet. "Is there anything you'd like to do?"

[grimbiker]

"Get drunk, get laid, get into trouble. Two out of three in one day isn't bad." He smiled. "I'll see where the rest of the day takes me."

[splendid_roman]

Ian chuckled. "If you want the third you might be better off going back to the bar."

[grimbiker]

"All in good time. Now that I've stretched my legs I think I'll see what else this planet has to offer."

[splendid_roman]

"I'll leave you to it. Would want to cramp your style." Ian clapped Sirius on the shoulder.

[grimbiker]

"You're welcome to join. I can think of worse ways to spend the day." Sirius studied him carefully.

Probably not what he was going for but you never knew.

[splendid_roman]

"Me too." No one was threatening to kill them for a start. "But I'm not looking to get laid."

[grimbiker]

Sirius nodded. "In that case this is where we part ways. Let me know if you change your mind- about getting into any more trouble that is."

[splendid_roman]

Ian grinned. "I will."
