☆So, yeah, maybe being a horrible person leaves you with no friends, and yeah, maybe it is his own fault, and yeah, maybe he's at a bar drinking himself silly realizing he's such a piece of shit that even his own Shadows ignored him today. So yeah, he's 42 and alone in a dive bar getting wasted.☆

So, yeah, he's alone on his 42nd birthday, big deal, whatever. Usually he'll force his Shadows into a little shindig... 'cept they all y'know, avoided him. Well, he wouldn't let it get him down... except when he walked into his favorite bar and saw the exact same Shadows who'd said they were busy.

Okay, yeah, that hurt. And yeah, he tucked his tail and ran like a little bitch. He's not sure why he did, he's a big boy, he's Phillip fuckin Graves... and he ran. From his own men no less.

He ended up finding some dive bar he'd never been to, nice enough, played John Denver and whatnot, let him smoke, pretty ladies... but he didn't _do_ anything he usually would. He just started drinking the shittiest beer they had on tap. He's pretty sure he's had 6 pints in the past hour and a few shots of crappy tequila to wash it down, he's already lost count.

One elbow is on the bar, his other forearm bearing most of his weight on the wooden top as he brings the cigarette back to his lips, already dangerously close to the red line on the paper. His vision swims, but for once, the liquor doesn't help him forget. It just exacerbates his thoughts. Is he really that bad? Does he really have no one that wants to be around him? Even his Shadows don't like him? Maybe he should've tried to be a better person. Maybe he shouldn't have been chasing the money. Maybe, maybe, maybe...

He stubs the cigarette into the ashtray with three other of his cigarette butts and exhales the last puff of smoke. "Hey, sugar," he drawls flatly, wiggling his shotglass dejectedly. "Gimme another round, yeah?" He rumbles to the bartender, looking miserable.
