[Tony glances at Regis curiously and takes a sip of the beer as he lifts the communicator to read it.
And keeps drinking till the mug is empty.]
Damn. *BELCH!!*
[Shit, that scared off the cat! (And maybe the one three streets over, but whatever. He got back up from the table, signaled for another beer, and half scooted/ half shoved himself onto Regis' booth to put an arm around his shoulders.]
[Regis jumps slightly at the loud sound, startled perhaps as much as the cat was. Astrals, how tense is he? As Tony orders another drink and moves to his side, Regis forces himself to take a deep breath and try to relax. It works...maybe. A little.
Honestly, the weight of Tony's arm on his shoulders probably helps more. He tilts his head back against the warmth and closes his eyes before speaking softly.]
She really does not realize how much she is hurting me. I keep telling myself that, but it is not helping right now.
[It spoke volumes to him that he hadn't gotten even a hint of a laugh out of his friend with that antic. They might be needing something stronger than beer.
He listens and frowns, taking time to think of how to respond. He was terribly biased here and he knew it. This man loved Era like a daughter and he didn't want to take that lightly.]
What part are you having the most difficulty with? The part about her not realizing she's hurting you or the fact that she's hurting you at all?
