[ the mention of a tail almost makes him pull back the offer, but it's too late. he glares at the phone and shoves it away. he didn't go home, or back to his own place. he kept wandering for a while. distracted. unnerved. waiting for david to send a response.
he's untethered, which is a first in a long, long time. now he does finally go for his shitty old place, which just gets worse by the day. he heads inside, brushes dust and ceiling mold off the counters. sits on the couch. gets back up and gets a drink from the open-way-too-long bottle of whiskey in the fridge. regrets that, along with most of his life choices.
then he remembers why they're supposed to be there, and heads into the bathroom to get out the mediocre medical supplies he's got stashed there. that's the whole reason he decided to keep the place on the downlow, after all: just in case he got his ass kicked and had to recover without anybody knowing the worst of it. ]
