It’s been a rough few weeks – so passes bottle around.<\/span><\/p>\n

And for Nyx – Terry\/Dino<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Dino eyed the bottle that was set in front of him.\u00a0 “Oh the good stuff, what’s the occasion?”<\/span><\/p>\n

Terry set the two glasses down, before saddling the chair.\u00a0 “It’s been five years since our time in the jungle.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Dino pours the bourbon, both quickly downing it.\u00a0 \u00a0The time isn’t the most pleasant of memories, but at the same time they found each other.\u00a0 “It’s hard to believe five years have gone by, feels like decades yet just yesterday.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“Know the feeling, mate.”\u00a0 He poured them a second glass.\u00a0 “Jack keeps saying I should travel meet other Meridii.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“You ready for that?”\u00a0 Meet Admiral Jack Aubrey was a mind trip, he wasn’t sure if he was ready to meet others.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Yes. No.\u00a0 Hey wouldn’t be fun if found your twin?”<\/span><\/p>\n

Dino gave him an unamused look.\u00a0 “How’s Brandon.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Terry’s return look was just as unamused but went with the flow.\u00a0 “Has a baby sloth, seems like it’s helping.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“Sloth therapy I prefer a good bottle of Bourbon.”\u00a0 Dino grabbed the battle then gave his Mate a wicked smirk.\u00a0 “How about we take this to our rooms and truly celebrate.”<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
