Re: [Bar: Jack & Patrick]
[Patrick did not share his opinion. It was not a deliberate silence. It was only more of that thoughtful silence that indicated he was thinking as he stood there with his broken hand upon the bar to steady himself. He nodded his head once Jack had finished his statement about messiness, people, and self-reflection, and then he removed his hand from the bar.] I would shake your hand, man, but. [He held up his busted hand and gave Jack that deliberate, crookedly endearing Gunster grin. That he had another hand to offer did not occur to him, man.
After that parting sentiment, he moved away from the bar and made his way to the door with impressive steadiness. One more stop, then he could slumber.]
