WHO: Everyone who wants to drown their sorrows or something
WHAT: Getting drunk about it
WHERE: The Spider-Web
WHEN: Today

Sure waking up to find that he was for some reason attached to a wizard nearly half his age hadn't been on the top ten best ways to start his day list that Peter most certainly did not keep somewhere in the back of his mind, it hadn't actually been on the top ten worst ways to start his day list either. So that was something to consider. Not that it made it any easier to deal with knowing that for some strange reason he found himself tethered to Sirius, things had gotten very strange very quickly, and considering his history with strange well - Peter thought he was handling the whole thing admirably.

Tonight though, well they were at the bar, because even tied together like this people still needed to eat and Peter wasn't about to just throw all of this away because he was mildly inconvenienced. So he was doing his best, passing out drinks and making food and hoping that at the very least, they could all just spend a little time there that evening and pretend like things weren't entirely fucked.

"Nothing like a couple of drinks and something good to eat to at least help make you feel like things aren't quite as bad as they might seem." And certainly he'd lucked out he thought, but like John had said, things could always be worse.

Claire didn't mind that she was the most demonstrative of the three, she was also the most emotionally mature so it figured. Besides they were both very good at making her feel very cared for and appreciated and really that was what mattered.

It was what they'd all been missing and Claire hummed, her ankles crossed behind Peter's back as she leaned heavily into John. They took their time to exchange kisses because it'd been a minute okay and kissing two people at once was impractical and too wet to be socially acceptable or that pleasant.

Bucky was so close to her back doing his best to be invisible but the whole thing was just not her jam. "Count yourselves lucky, if me and him get any further than this away, it's an ouch," she said as she made a face.

"I don't know, it's felt very touch and go for a while." Peter said with as much solemnity as he could muster in the face of John's teasing, but he broke out into a grin when he finished of course spoiling the whole effect really. But the point remained, he'd missed them both. Sure they were both still here, and both right here at the moment, and the town wasn't so big that he couldn't shout them down across town if he really wanted, but it was the quite moments he missed.

A night in just the three of them, keeping them close without fear of dragging some other unwilling someone into their pile. Of being able to kiss either of them when he liked without thinking about a wizard who was too young for Peter's taste to be watching him try and romance his two favorites. So yes, wasting away felt right.

"Best not to push it then, don't like you getting those ouches," Peter said with a frown of his own but kissed the face she made right off of her. "It'll pass, all of this." He told her with as much certainty as he could manage, because he had to believe it would. This place could be insane but it wasn't entirely cruel. They just had to wait it out.

John frowned over the concept of it being an ouch more than a discomfort or just something that they couldn't physically do. It was possible that she was just more susceptible to magic? It was something that he filed away for the future -- something he'd have to actually test out his theory on. Today wasn't for that -- even he was bloody goddamned tired of magic right now.

Not that he wasn't usually, but this was in a different sort of way.

"Avoid that," he said, echoing Peter in a very unhelpful manner. Because obvious advice was better when given from two white men. Obviously.

"Most things pass here," he noted. "I won't take it any differently than being the a teenaged terror that other time." He glanced at each of them in turn. "N' then we close the bar for a week and tell people to deal with their own health problems and stay in doing whatever we like, yeah?"
