As if the miserable heat of early July wasn't bad enough. Nik was not bred for this shit. He hated the cold but he physically could not handle summer heat waves. He needed Sinclair and its beautiful beautiful glorious air conditioning.
He didn't want it right now though. Right now, he wanted to suffer, just for a little bit. Just... dealing with... Niso. Never mind that he was a perfectly pleasant kid about 99% of the time Nik had been around him and just kind of creepy the other 1%. Nik hated him with an irrational passion and trying to mend his relationship with Sera was going so much worse for her wanting to continue to encourage him to spend time with that little shit. It only pissed him off all the more that he couldn't ask himself "what does she see in him?" It was obvious. They were adorable together. Why the fuck were they so cute together? Ugh.
He'd done his best to be civil during the brief visit, but after leaving, he decided he wanted to feel as miserable physically as he did emotionally in a vague effort to deal with this. So he actually walked back to Alterna-proper, even across the open fields. Jasna was at his side, of course, and Alterna close enough that they delivered pizza this far, but all the same it was a significant ordeal for him.
By the time he came to some buildings, he felt even more like shit and his legs hurt just a bit, and he collapsed on the first bench he saw. Now that he had some of this venting out of his system, sort of, maybe he could call--.... Right. Mia had plans with Vesta today, didn't she. Or was it the family today, Vesta tomorrow? He was doubting his mental schedule, now, but he was certain she was busy. Maybe not too much to talk, but he'd be imposing if he asked to hang out. So then....
... Orion didn't answer, and Nik tried not to take it too personally. He was busy. Of course. Besides, they'd only been hanging out once or twice a week as of right now and Nik didn't want to come off as... desperate? That might give the wrong idea, like Nik wanted more from the relationship. He... didn't. He definitely probably didn't at least not entirely. Across space and time, Two Weeks Later Nik was laughing at him. Okay even present Nik had definitely given a relationship some degree of thought but... it was a bad idea, right? Definitely enough to convince him one missed call was enough; blowing up his phone would be.... less than ideal.
Nik scrolled through his phone. Lucien was a maybe and... ehhh. No one else really seemed like they could help him calm down versus just adding more socialization stress. He did debate Lucien for a minute, but... nah, it wasn't like he could tell him why he was upset. Only Mia and Orion knew about Niso, and even if Nik trusted Lucien that much-- and he didn't-- there was the issue of Luci's personal beef to consider. (He did wonder how Elena was doing lately, though.)
So.... Ugh.
Nik decided he had two choices. Go home and go to bed, or get wasted. ... That neon sign in the distance was promising? Moving closer, he saw it was indeed a bar, and looked like a pretty slumtastic joint to boot.
It was perfect.
He'd head in and take a seat at the bar, ordering some cherry bourbon he'd found surprisingly pleasant last time he had it. He'd sit just kind of sulking and soaking the AC and nursing that drink for a while before starting to watch the bar. He guessed he was starting to feel a little calmer at--
.............................. Speaking of assholes he irrationally hated.

Needless to say, Damian was in a bit of a foul mood.
A bit? Who’re you kidding?
He was in an extremely foul mood.
While he knew that Amon was busy to all hell with the paperwork that had been swamping him, he certainly didn’t deserve that rather…blunt blowing-off he’d gotten from the other man he’d gotten a few days ago. Is it my fault I miss you?! Fucking hell, most of the time you’re in that cooped-up little office of yours, slogging through a mountain of paperwork… he thought darkly, having bailed out of Liggs for once.
Today was supposed to be a “lazy day” where he’d call in and tell the engineering team to go on without him today, that they were free to do whatever they wanted; but the urge to try and get himself drunk had struck him again. Truth be told, out of the 7 days in a week, Damian would always drop by at the surface-side bar between three to four times, and would always have a few shots of vodka to end the day on a good note.
But today?
He was in the mood for something that could kill the anger that had built up inside him. The frustration was evident, yes—he just really wanted to knock himself shitless and pass out from being absolutely tipsy. Not wanting to draw attention to himself, he’d decided to fly to one of the other cities where few people knew him—the fewer the better.
This was how he’d found himself in one of the seedier bars in Alterna (that was surprising, considering Damian knew the rep of Alterna in general, but it couldn’t be helped) and was seated on the opposite end of the counter, knocking back a few beers.
He was normally known for avoiding beer, but for him to drink the stuff he hated? Well, there definitely was something up with him. He then continued to fuss with his black scarf, twirling one end absent-mindedly, and his eyes wandered along the stretch of the bar, before he saw a sight of familiar, grayish-white colored hair—and his amethyst-colored orbs darkened for a few moments.
“Huh. What’re you doin’ here,” he said in Nikolai’s direction, nursing what appeared to be his fourth bottle of Guinness. “Surprised to not see you down Under. You an’ Mia have a fight, or somethin’?” he continued; while he knew that the two were best friends, it was so rare to see one without the other.

There is this certain aura hanging over him and he's in a dipshitty mood, if you can't tell. |

For all his issues with the grumpy Gym Leader, Nik had to snerk at that greeting. Deciding trolling Damian did sound more promising and distracting than brooding alone, he picked up his bottle and moved closer.
"Man, why ya gotta call me out like that?" he clearly feigned, still smirking slightly. "I was gonna say 'if it isn't my second favorite Liggs leader,' but you had to go and ruin it." Of course Nik still had to say it somehow.
Taking the nearest seat, he took another drink before answering, "But nah. Mia may be my favorite person, but we do have other friends. Shocking in my case, I know," he teased. A shrug followed as his tone flattened out. "So yah. She had other plans today and I spent my afternoon putting up with my ex-fuckbuddy's obnoxious boyfriend, so." He threw back another swig.

As Damian took a look at the contents of his bottle, he then shook it a little, before noticing that Nikolai had come over to join him. Internally rolling his eyes at the snark that had been directed his way, he then called the barkeep over before ordering another bottle of what he was drinking.
Once the four empty bottles had been swept away, he had to resist the urge to snap, but due to the beer that was currently in his system, his personal filters were a bit on the awry side.
“I just find it… strange, is all,” he began, resting his cheek on one of his hands before looking at his fellow Gym Leader. More like, I thought I saw a picture of what I assumed was the two of you together somewhere? Unless I was seeing things? He thought to himself, before a new bottle was placed in front of him.
“Tell me… I’ve heard the rumors that you an’ Mia were out somewhere on what I think is a date? Unless the paparazzi aren’t to be believed, then Arceus be damned someone needs to get the facts straight,” he muttered, grabbing the bottle and taking another long drink from it. While the liquid didn’t burn with the same zing as vodka normally did, he usually reserved vodka for his feel-good days.
Today was another matter entirely.
When his companion mentioned the words “obnoxious boyfriend”, Damian felt heat burning from within his belly for some reason. No, it wasn’t the heat from being turned on—it was a different kind of heat; the agitated, infuriating kind that wanted to make him smash the bottle he had in his hands against a wall. Or probably smash the bottle and pick up the largest shard he’d find and…
“Obnoxious? How obnoxious are we talkin’ about, now? I hope he’s not as… distasteful as this other guy I know,” he continued, the light in his deep-purple eyes darkening for a few moments as he thought of the extremely busy commander whom he’d had an argument with earlier in the week.
“Care to talk about it, if you don’ mind?”

Obnoxious was the key word he was looking for... |

Nik balked in disbelief for a moment at the accusation, but then just barked a curt laugh. "Actually, I'd say 'straight' is the opposite of what their facts need to get, wouldn't you?" His baseline mood was still shit, sure, but he almost always enjoyed talking about Mia, as well as bad puns, so the two together was always a winning combination.
"But nah. She's gay as ever." Right? They'd uh, made out on quite a few occasions at this point, and shared a bed on more than one even if the farthest it had ever gone was some minor accidental groping-- not that he'd have wanted Damian of all people to know this regardless-- but... He had to refrain from physically shaking his head as he dismissed that thought. Orientation was determined by attraction, not action, and Nik was a bit annoyed at himself for even momentarily questioning that. ... Of course, with the same logic, asserting that Mia was still gay didn't actually technically counter the dating rumors but whatever. Getting too deep into that might come off as suspicious levels of denial, so better to just move forward.
His tone was casual, almost a verbal shrug. "We do stuff together all the time, and yeah I'm in love with her, but she's not interested like that and I'm more than fine being bffs. Honestly, I'm surprised the rumor mill doesn't run more than I've seen, but I'm glad it doesn't. Our outings definitely aren't dates, though." Once again, Two Weeks Later Nik would be amused looking back, but Present Nik couldn't begin to fathom how readily Mia would consider An Actual Date in the near future.
He sipped a bit more at his bottle. Rather than going through a bunch, he'd just opted for one of the stronger options he found palatable enough and was drinking it slowly; he figured if he made it through the whole bottle he could decide what to do from there then. ...Huh. Wasn't it last time he'd seen Dams at a bar that that girl suggested this brand? That was sort of amusing.
Damian's interest in a certain psychopath was pretty quickly dismissed, though. "Ehhh. Honestly he's been pretty nice most times I've been around him, and he's..." He groaned lightly with an uncomfortable expression. "Good for her in ways, I guess. So I can't really tell you why I hate him." Ha... haha... no, really, Nik couldn't say for a lot of reasons. "I just can't stand the little shit is all."

At the mention of the words “little shit”, Damian let out a snort.
“Something… tells me that even if you say they’re good for this friend of yours, the bad outweighs the good,” he began, looking up to see another bottle had been set in front of him; it was here he remembered that all he’d said to the bartender was to ‘keep it coming’, and this was what, his fifth bottle? Anyway, the anger coiling inside him continued to burn slowly, stoking the embers to life.
“Is he the annoying kind of hate that gets under your skin from time to time when you see ‘em on sight? That’s the impression I’m picking up,” he continued, staring again at the neck of the bottle before taking a long drink from it.
Once he was done (therefore leaving the bottle half-empty), he then set it down on the counter with another thump, he then sighed. “Well, I suppose he’s not as shitty as this one I’m having problems with. I just… hate that… he’s so busy all the time. Like, I just wanted a date, some time to talk, but no…” he trailed off, waving his other hand for emphasis.
“He cuts me off and tells me that he’s got way too much work on his hands, so I’m like, ‘You can’t be serious, you just got here!’, and then after that it sort of devolved into a shouting match… I just left afterwards. Hell, we may be Gym Leaders but we even have free days to do nothing and laze around, right? I swear, sometimes he gets on my nerves…” he grumbled, reaching for his bottle again and taking another drink from it.

The annoying kind of hate that gets under your skin on sight? In his mind for a moment, there were two Nikolais. One was grabbing the other from behind, stuffing a rag in his mouth to keep him quiet, while the one being grabbed was trying to scream, OH, YOU MEAN LIKE YOU? In all honesty, the sheer level of struggle to not say that aloud was so fucking funny to him that he created an entirely different struggle not to laugh. If he opened his mouth, something was gonna come out, so he'd only answer Damian with a brief "Mmm" until he was sure he could behave himself.
Although.. he'd find himself regretting that decision soon after, as Damian took the thin excuse to dump ah... boyfriend? crush? troubles onto Nik. ...Huh. He was apparently pretty drunk, huh. And now yet another conflict was forming, because the more spiteful parts of him insisted, Troll him. And oh, it was tempting... But the part that cared a little too much for people when their problems were relatable and the part that found involving himself in someone else's problems a good distraction from his own issues came together in agreement to veto the spite.
"You uh.... wanna talk about it, or...?" He shifted and withdrew in on himself a bit as he took another sip from his bottle. "I haven't.. really 'dated' anyone in years, but I was engaged for a while and I'm.. I-I dunno... sort of?? talking to an old ex lately. I don't.. know if I really want that to go anywhere but ah--" He shook his head and waved a hand briefly to dismiss the thought. "Point was I'm not totally inexperienced. I could try to help...?"

“Well, if you don’t mind a one-sided rambling coming from me, then sure…” Damian grumbled, reaching for the bottle and squinting at its contents. Since when did the contents of this one sink so low? Either way, he then knocked back the rest of the contents of the bottle and asked for another—honestly, he wasn’t keeping track of how many he’d had anymore. Like, he knew he had like three, four? Before everything started coming out.
“Okay, so. How do you deal with an ex who just goes off the grid for a while, like a long while… I’m talking close to a decade here, maybe more… and then they just suddenly turn up from out of nowhere and then ask you out again?” he began, his brow furrowing as the next bottle was set down in front of him.
“Like, twelve years with absolutely no contact whatsoever, no emails exchanged, no texts or calls or anything… and then suddenly bam, out of nowhere they come waltzing up from Arceus-knows-where and then ask if it’s okay to pick up where you left off…” he added a few moments later, to hopefully give some context to his earlier outburst. He then grabbed the fresh bottle and knocked back another long drink from it, hopefully waiting for sound advice…

He just came out and went with it, to be honest. He's giving some backstory, for additional ideas. He'll get to the proper rambling after this. |

Nik listened as Damian explained his current situation, but the longer he went on, the harder Nik was squinting. ....the fuck??? He may have vaguely looked around to see if this was some kind of camera prank show. Seriously, Damian? ....Seriously?
Once he finished speaking, Nik stared for probably several seconds too long before finally barking out a disbelieving laugh and shaking his head. "Ya know dude... I'd like to tell you you should blow him off, but... If I'm preaching from experience you'd have to subtract one word from that..." A bit more of that pathetic, self-deprecating laughter followed. "Though in my case it was eight years, and I still don't really know what I wanna do about him either. Like I keep telling myself I probably don't wanna date him again, but then we end up making out, and?" Nik embodied the shrug emoji so hard he was a little afraid he'd just transcend human existence and become living text.

“You have the same problem too, huh…” Damian drawled, setting the bottle down again and looking at his companion in time to see the other literally do a shrugging motion. “…but I guess, old feelings… habits, whatever… die hard, huh?” he said, waving his hand off on one side before squinting at the bottle again. “I just wasn’t expecting him to come waltzing in again and knocking on the door of my life after all this time, thinking it’s okay to pick up where we left off…”
Sighing, as he let a frustrated noise escape him for a bit, he then knocked back another drink before continuing, “…well, I wasn’t expecting him to drop that on me after that night. But a few weeks later, he gets so swept up with his work, he forgot that I was there. So… it kind of ended with me actually heading to his office and then yeah, shit happened. And now I’m just looking for a place to cool down for a bit, because I did so much to accommodate his busy schedule but he didn’t see my effort… so there’s that…”
Sighing again, he then blinked as he saw a platter of peanuts had been laid out in front of them, courtesy of the bartender. Reaching for the salted snack, he then popped a few into his mouth before picking up where he left off, “Well… there’s that. I thought I’d already told myself that it wasn’t possible to like, have feelings again, but… old habits really should die in a ditch, especially after that…” he grumbled as he grabbed the bottle and downed some more.
But then again, people were foolish when they were in love…

Oh yeah? Huh... Some part of Nik wanted to spout off, Well hey! At least he didn't show up intending to kill you, right~? But fortunately, he wasn't quite drunk enough to forget that that could carry some serious consequences for Orion to spread around. ...And also, as downright uncanny as this was, Nik was very slightly afraid he'd be corrected on that, so... ahaha, better to not ask.
He was, however, starting to get drunk enough to lose some sense of tact, particularly around someone like Damian with whom it was kind of debatable to begin with. "I mean?" Another brief, sharply barked 'ha'. "I think you're pretty much just validating why I had enough sense to not sleep with mine since he got back." ... He squinted, debating if it was worth pedantically getting into technicalities but finding he was speaking again before even properly deciding. Okay then. "I mean shared a bed for like literal sleep once or twice, and I guess like... I wasn't exaggerating before I--..."
His face burned for a few moments, and he swigged down some more of his bourbon as if he thought that was going to help ahaha... A bit dodgier in tone, he admitted, "He kinda got like... really hot so maybe I just... wanted the excuse to... have a look around.." Whyyyy was he saaaaying this, why was he telling Damian this, he knew he wasn't that drunk yet? ...This was Niso's fault. He made him that desperate to vent to someone that he was willing to do this, thanks a lot shithead. Nik rested an elbow on the bar and leaned over a bit, rubbing the back of his neck with that hand. "Point is I haven't.. let him do too much to me and yeah I take it back this doesn't sound validated at all it just kind of sounds stupid as fuck huh." He huffed. "I keep telling myself oh! it's to help discourage me from getting too invested! oh I don't wanna make myself too vulnerable! but I'm kinda a fuckin' mess anyway honestly??" A few high almost-giggles sputtered out at his own expense.
"Tee ell dee are, let me know if you make any progress on that 'kill old feelings in a ditch' plan."

Oooooh.
Was it just him, or was Nikolai… being more talkative than usual? He then made a mental note to always have alcoholic drinks on-hand so that he’d be much more open with sharing stuff, as opposed to their usual arguing like wet cats dynamic.
Maybe there really was something with alcohol that gave everyone liquid courage to talk about topics as sordid as this…
He then felt his eyebrows shoot up so high, they almost disappeared into his hairline at that point. He busied his hands by grabbing some more peanuts and popping them into his mouth while listening intently. He did know how to multitask after all. Once he was done munching on said peanuts, he let out a sigh.
“Well, we’re all stupid when it comes to love… let’s face it, we’re idiots when it comes to shit like this…” he began, grimacing for a bit as he bit down on a piece of roasted garlic, before taking another drink from the bottle in front of him.
“Oh, def, I’ll let you know how setting my emotions on fire in a ditch and burying them goes,” he replied absentmindedly as he began to pick out more of the garlic bits before turning to face him. Damian’s face wasn’t as splotchy as he’d wanted it to be yet, so…
“Admit it… you secretly wanted that old spark to come back, huh? But you let your rational thinking get in the way? I say, screw that shit… I mean, if you’re not seeing anyone else at the moment, what’s holding you back? Go for it…” he advised.

Nik had been plenty embarrassed, but still vaguely and bitterly amused for a while. Even if this was fucking stupid, and Damian was totally right that they were both Arceus-forsaken idiots about shit like this, at least it was kind of cathartic to vent to someone about it. Even if it meant making a total ass of himself in the process, he'd have to value Damian's opinion farther than he could throw a Snorlax to care too much, even if innate self-consciousness about certain things did trip him a bit.
But at Damian's accusation at the end, all that feeling faded, replaced by a struggle between the rationale Damian was trying to put forth and an overwhelming devouring sense of dread.
Nik withdrew in a bit, turning to stare down at the bar with both arms rested on it rather than look at Damian. Quietly, he muttered finally, "I really didn't..." An awful, sickly feeling ran up his spine and threatened to fog his head. "This was honestly the last thing I wanted. ..I mean... I was so happy to see him, but... Dating..." He tried to force a smile, but it came out more of a quivering grimace. "I worshiped him when we were kids. H-..he was.. my first everything and I never regreted any of that but... Dude he was my first friend outside my siblings. My whole world revolved around him, and then he just... left. Didn't even break up with me, just got bored and stopped talking to me. If his mom hadn't taught two of my siblings sometimes I wouldn't have known if he fucking died or what."
Oh... Oh now he was apparently drunkenly crying in front of motherfucking Damian Moreau. Well okay he officially hit a low point in life now, huh. Ha....... "I don't wanna get hurt again and... I'm so fucking afraid of putting him back on that same pedestal to let him get away with whatever he wants..." He choked back a sharp whimper. "He's been... so good since he came back but... I just...? What if it..."

“What’s holding you back then? The fact that you believe that you’re… not worthy?” he began, reaching for the rest of the roasted garlic bits and eventually picking those away form the peanuts and chowing down on them first. It then took him a few moments to put two and two together, before silently filing away that information for future use, just in case.
“Why not have some ground rules, then? Like… you know, meet halfway? Reach a compromise?” he suggested. Now that Nikolai Laska was crying like a drunken idiot in front of him, Damian really couldn’t find it in himself to snark at the other, now that he was laying out his cards on the table for him to see.
Reaching for the bottle again, he then swirled it around before taking another hearty drink from it. “Or are you scared that he might just be trying to get back in your good graces and then leave you behind again…” he said sometime later, once he’d put the bottle back down.
“Well, that’s what the compromises are for, right? Oh, yeah, before I forget… have a serious, one-on-one, heart-to-heart with them. This goes without saying, but of course you can read the atmosphere around them, right? Always trust your instincts…” he added.
Who knew that Damian could actually legit give good, sound advice? To a frenemy, at the least?

[OOC: This isn't 'giggly drunk', just emotional and prone to humor coping. So like, Nik 40% of the time basically. xP]
Scared he might leave you behind again.. "Something like that..." Nik affirmed quietly.
Gray eyes rolled at that advice, though. Pffff... He wiped his face before choking down another sip. (Man there went his eyeliner huh.. Oh well.)
Yeah... Okay... The same instincts that took one look at Orion's thoroughly scarred body and decided it was a great idea to immediately look for an excuse to taste each one? The same instincts that heard the words 'I love you' and panicked and told his other love interest in an effort to seek advice? Or speaking of said other interest, "The same instincts that compelled me to get involved with my complicated ex while also being in love with my lesbian best friend??" Yeah, that seemed like the right one to go with out loud, lol.
"But man, what about you? What're you doin' in this hell hole if your heart to heart and trusting your instincts are such good obvious advice, huh?" Whether that was an accusation that if it hadn't worked for Damian what mad him think it was better for Nik, or a question of why he wasn't practicing what he preached-- well, that remained to be seen.
...Nik was actually gonna steal one of those garlic bites, Damian could fight him off if he thought it was worth it.
