Who: Jack Carson and open.
Where: Starlight diner.
What: Being confused.
When: After talking to his sister, about five-ish.
Well... No matter how hard he tried to turn his thoughts around to something that was anything but that simple little word, he always came back to it. He now understood why Emmy had urged him not to tell their parents about it, because they wouldn't have stood for such idiocy - just as he'd had an earful when news of a drunk Las Vegas marriage had leaked out. And that was part of the whole sibling experience, wasn't it? Just to make sure they lived through the same life experiences they had? Oh hell, he didn't know any more. All he really knew, was that being in the same city was no guarantee that he could keep an eye on her. And just like that, his thoughts went straight back to something simple. Well ...
After he'd waved Emmy off - something about some dinner with that Felix and Dani - he'd asked for a refill on his soda and whatever the pie of the day was. Which wasn't his favorite, so he listlessly kept picking at it. Well... And he groaned. Oh God. He was being a complete idiot, wasn't he? The drunk text that had started it all, the threats of shovel meeting skull (or his fire axe, rather) and staying up all night playing Mario Kart, knowing that he could get called in every second?
Idiot. Simple as that. Finally breaking the crust with his fork, he scooped up a piece of the pie and shoveled it into his mouth.
