Re: Act 5.5.0 - A Very Talon Morning
Although the more hung over members of the crew might not know it, Devon had been up for several hours and had even emerged from his room twice; although possibly only the cleaning droids had seen him the first two times.
The first time Devon had emerged, he'd been wearing a pair of short and a bath robe. Whistling cheerfully he'd ambled over to what was left of the buffet, stepping over various piles of mess and the occasional comatose person. Having filled a tray with whatever he could find that still looked edible and grabbed a miraculously still-intact bottle, he'd ambled back to his room, closing and locking the door behind him.
The second time Devon emerged was nearly an hour later, fully dressed and carrying the now almost empty bottle in one hand. His other arm was round the waist of the falleen woman he'd disappeared with the night before. Heads close together and talking quietly, the two of them had picked their way through the mess and headed to the turbo lifts where they'd exchanged goodbyes and a final kiss. After the lift doors closed, Devon had finished the bottle in one long swallow before plonking the empty bottle on top of a nearby cleaning droid and ambling back to his room with a happy smile on his face.
When CC9 pounded on his door for the second time - after the half hour warning - Devon emerged rubbing his eyes and looking like he'd just been napping fully clothed in an effort to catch up on lost sleep. Waving the droid off before CC9 did something awful to him, Devon headed for the lifts; quickly catching up with a dripping wet Duros whom he quietly supported. Flash looked barely capable of staying upright, never mind walking in a straight line. Devon was in far too good a mood to leave Flash to suffer his hangover alone, so he kept the Duros upright and did all the steering as the two of them made their way to the Oiled Rancor
All the way there, Devon radiated the sort of good mood that could be detected from orbit, which probably wasnt helping Flash's mood any...
