Abrasure.

[Jeremy Hunter]

Nodding, Jeremy and Aqua corralled Seth and Alyson Hawke, the Ghost Eye's XO and Seth's current lover. Luckily they had been stopping by Thebes for new orders. The quartet headed to the bar after wasting fifteen minutes looking over the Nu. Stepping into the bar, the four took a booth and saved a spot for Santos.
"When did you and Bolevara get along?" Seth asked.
"When Tohoku decided to be a colossal pain in the ass." Jeremy replied.
That was when Aqua smacked him for his earlier comment, causing Jeremy to rub the side of his face. "Ow."
"Don't say you didn't deserve it."
"I didn't deserve it that hard."

Aqua facepalmed and ordered a vodka on the rocks.
"Actually, make that two vodkas on the rocks."
