lastgunslingerRoland acquired a coat from the Bar. Because he doesn't need to be catching a cold while he's here. And also he's had enough of being cold to last him several lifetimes, we all say thankya.
So he's out by the swing again. Smoking. Later he'll walk some.

Barely.

Date: 2005-12-20 10:32 pm (UTC)What fall?
Crowley didn't fall. That's crazy talk. See? He's standing right there. Perfectly upright. Like it never happened. Which it didn't.
He brushes a bit of snow off himself.
Oh yeah, and stares.
no subject
Date: 2005-12-20 10:35 pm (UTC)Roland-style.
Which means he's looking at Crowley.

What up, sai?
"Fuck me," he says, faintly.

"And smoking." He holds up his cigarette.

Date: 2005-12-20 11:08 pm (UTC)And then, supremely aware of the absurdity of both the situation and the gesture, he extends his hand.
"Well, uh. Hi. Er - long days and pleasant nights," he corrects himself.

Date: 2005-12-20 11:13 pm (UTC)It's fairly much a guarantee. Roland doesn't say that, of course.
"You've been well, I hope?" And by 'well', Roland means 'not discorporated'.

Date: 2005-12-20 11:42 pm (UTC)It's not a question, not exactly - Crowley'd asked the Lady herself, after all, and she'd told him yes.
But still.
no subject
Date: 2005-12-20 11:50 pm (UTC)And if he's thinking of what Andronicus Crowley asked him to do...well.
"Think the phrase is 'about damn time'."

A very, very small smile.

"Mine. Me and mine."

no subject
Date: 2005-12-21 01:34 am (UTC)"A few days, at most."
He looks at Crowley.
"Will you be here, when I go? For River?"
no subject
Date: 2005-12-21 01:48 am (UTC)For a few moments, Crowley focuses very intently on a patch of snow at his feet.
He has the very bizarre feeling that, were he to lift his feet, he might not see any footprints.
He feels lighter - like the hang-time before the
(F = G(Mm/r2))
drop that never really is, because
(find someone to carry you)
Crowley always catches it on time.
"Yes," he says.
And nods.
