Happiness is a Warm Gun -anyone-

Aidonsious looked at him for a long moment and than for no reason, he started laughing. His laugher continued and got harder as he kept looking over at him. "You.." He said and tried to breath. "Are so drunk." He said and than calmed down a little but he had a smile on his face as he looked at him and cleared his throat. "I once believed you where drunk and out of your mind but I have a feeling, that you are fully aware if I tell you that I can steal your shadow." He said and looked at him, as if studying him. He has never trusted adults but found this one to be interesting.

Tobias squinted at him and sipped his water. He blinked a few times and then laughed out loud. “Like Peter Pan? I can just sew my shadow to my shoes!” His eyes were wide and glinted mischievously. He quickly weighed his options and bought another drink. He tossed back his shot and lit another cigarette. “Seriously though…shadows? How does that work?”

He looked at him, a little thrown off by his sudden interest in his ability. Raising an eyebrow, he looked at him. "A simple trick of the mind." He said and than sat up straight and looked at him more, reviewing him over. "Do you really care about me or are you just another adult who is bored and wants some entertainment?" He asked concerned and he really meant it. Aidonsious was afraid to open up and maybe, this person he could trust?

“I can find other ways to amuse myself thank*hick*you!” Tobias slurred, sipping on a dark beer. “Besides, if I wasn’t interested in what you had to say…trust me…I’d be a lot more drunk.” He swallowed a few times, forcing the bitter liquid down when his body was clearly telling him the limit was coming soon. And he was hungry. The best thing after getting piss drunk was ordering pizzas and then throwing it all up in the morning. Normally, people didn’t like the idea of vomit, but then most people didn’t have the food issues Tobias struggled with. “So show me, or don’t show me. It’s up to you.”

Aidonsious looked to him and just took a moment to realized that he really was interested in him. Maybe, he was wrong and if he showed some promise, maybe he could help him. "Alright." He said as he looked behind the man as a shadow formed in the shape of Aidonsious as it poked him in the back. This shadow had complete form and was solid. "If I may be so bold..what do you do?" He asked as the shadow looked around at the people.

Tobias scratched at the stubble around his chin. “About what?” he asked. He hadn’t those types of questions. Be specific or don’t ask, and besides, what he did didn’t define who it was. This wasn’t drunk thinking…this was logical thinking by a half-man who was clearly drunk. He lit a cigarette and leaned too far backwards, nearly fell off the stool and had to right himself.

Reaching behind him, a shadow formed and handed him a napkin so he could wipe up a little mess with his rootbeer. Looking over at him, all what he had created now disappeared. Aidonsious opened up a little to him, to show him a little what he could do. It now seems, someone else needs to talk out their issues. "Are we switching roles or something?" He asked and looked at him. "We all are at that place because we are different. There is always something that makes us different. What makes you different?"

“Oh a lot of things make me different,” Tobias laughed. “I’m extremely tall and I’m a lovable jerk. I smoke more than anyone else I know….and,” he leaned in so that no one would hear what came out of his mouth. “I’m half wolf.” He pressed a finger to his pursed lips, forming in a silent ‘shhh’ and his eyes turned a brilliant gold for half a second. He grinned. “That’s what I do boy. I haunt the nightmares of children. I’m what makes the good people lock their doors at night. I’m what makes them fear.”

Aidonsious said nothing as he to, cocked his head and just looked at him. Maybe there was nothing more to this man that was before him..or maybe there was. It seemed that him admitting about being drunk is a sure sign that he is not an alcoholic or maybe he is of a new generation of men that are intoxicated by this evil version of control. Maybe now, he could open up but at the moment, he wanted to know more about what was in front of him. "I enjoy how you are avoiding my question on what you really are." He said and than a sly grin came over his face. "Do you want me to tell you?" He asked.

Tobias sobered up and glared at Aidonsious. His thick brows furrowed together and he squinted through the thick haze of white-blue smoke. “So, what your saying is that you think you know me…even though we’ve only talked for….how long is it now?” He shook his head in disbelief and rolled his eyes. “Fine then, have a go if you can.”

He looked at him and only smirked. "There is alot in this world that you do not know of Tobias. I am not here to judge you or even tell you what will happen or what you already know as a person." He said and sat up as he looked at him. "I just want you to take me seriously, I want you to talk to me as if I am an equal over someone who is lost and confused." He said. Fear was building up in the back of his mind for standing up. He never stands up and because of this, something broke inside of him that allowed Aidonsious to speak his mind and he had a little support. "Tobias Avery Williams...a man of the wolves...I want you to help me...as you have helped others.." He said and than looked away and back to his glass and than fell silent as a image appeared to disappear in his glass that now again, was filled with rootbeer.

“I got news for you boy-o,” Tobias said, now drinking from the draft of water. “Anyone who says they ain’t lost and confused…they’re selling something.” He didn’t like the kid’s attitude. Something about him seemed too arrogant for his own good. Tobias gulped down more water and lit another cigarette with a flourish. “You want me to help you? With what? I don’t huff and puff and blow down houses no more kid.”

He could not help but smile. "There is something within you Tobias that makes it so you can not trust anyone...am I right? Because you are treating me like I am a criminal." He said as he shifted in his seat a little uneasy. "You are good with helping kids find their 'path' or helping them with their problems. I was wondering, in your busy schedule, if you could help me." He said and waited for an answer.

Tobias stared off into blank space while he listened to Aid talk. His brow furrowed as though he were having inner dialog with himself, taking into consideration something that should have been very important and he was squinting his eyes. The truth was he was really pissed now and needed something to balance off the alcohol. “You’re my student, aren’t you?” he asked smoothly, shrugging his shoulders and drinking his water. “Course Ill help you.”

The look he started out with scared him a little bit. But hearing his question about being a student, all he could do was shake his head but in the second sentence he let out a breath. "I am not good at talking to adults...forgive me for how I approached you." Aidonsious said and looked over to his rootbeer but was not thirsty anymore.
