[Brooding]

It was well after dinner when the majority of the passengers wouldn't be in the dining carriage with none of the lights on. Those who snacked tended to stay in the kitchen. There are a few dishes left to do, but they were far down on Tony's list of worries.

He'd had several drinks from the bottle of scotch he'd purchased and that had led to a very dark mood. His back was to the doorway, his helmet was on the table next to him with the open bottle, and a projected image was playing in front of him. There were three voices in the video- his, a woman's, and a little girl's. A little girl who looked a lot like a younger version of Buttercup was playing around a park and a lovely blonde woman following along after her. The woman keeps looking at the camera and joking about Tony needing to stop filming everything, but of course he makes up some stupid reason about why this was vital for the sake of all of humanity. There's another one with the same duo are playing in the woods with a tiny set of Iron Man masks and gloves.

[Training]

He was a little hungover, but in a way the bad mood just made him want to fight even more. He'd called over the ICP for anyone who would like to start training to learn hand to hand combat.

He found some material to make small cushion gloves like those a boxer might have (only obviously not as good as those). He's wearing his cargo pants and a black tank top. He calls Peter up to the front of the class and passes over another set of the makeshift boxing gloves.

[Added! Getting spare parts- Late afternoon 17 ]

Tony found the belt Manabu had set aside for a holster for his gun and decided to put his tools on it. He was already sweaty from the training, so he didn't bother cleaning up when he was going to be working more. So in his black undershirt, a sledgehammer over on shoulder, and a metallic glove from his suit he whistled his way to the standard carriage.

There was no need for this many chairs in here. They would never need this many. So, he went over to the front row and lifted the hammer. With a purely devilish grin, he grunted from the exertion and TWA-BANG. The headrest of the chair went flying. He kept working, going back and forth between the sledgehammer, a very concentrated beam from his glove for cutting, and a screwdriver until he had one short row of chairs dismantled.

Reigen had just gotten done talking himself out of using one of Jessie's cigarettes for himself, since he didn't want to steal and didn't even have a lighter, when there was a knock on the door. He opened it prepared to tell whoever it was to come back a different time, when he saw who it was.

"Oh, Ignis...uh, sure? Go for it." He didn't feel like he could turn down Ignis in particular given that he'd been the one who lead to his relationship getting messed up. Right, that did happen, didn't it? "Are you doing ok?"

"I've brought you a gift of alcohol." This was a thing he'd learned from Tony earlier in the day. Handing it over, Ignis came in. Fortunately it was only them, which of course was ideal. He didn't ask to sit so he stood and blinked puzzedly at Reigen.

"I'm doing fine, thank you for asking." Ignis was here to apologize on Tony's behalf and as he and the older man had discussed earlier, Reigen was really very kind. And he would do everything he could to keep the peace here.

"I've come to find out how you are actually."

[personal profile] internetsexsymbol 2019-10-08 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
"Eh? Thanks...how'd you know I was thirsty?" He laughed a little, taking the bottle. Man, this looked expensive. Now he could excuse downing it as an act of appreciating a gift rather than self-destructive behavior.

"Ok, good, I was worried after that whole thing happened...eh? Me? I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?" Reigen waved off Ignis' question, electing to focus on trying to open the alcohol instead of his own condition. "Uh, it doesn't bother you if I drink, does it? I can probably get some glasses to split it or something..."

Maybe he ought to wait, considering, but Reigen at least wanted to appear fine and sociable right now. There wasn't a good reason for him to be upset, anyway, especially compared to Ignis.

[personal profile] faithfulsupport 2019-10-08 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
What whole thing..oh right, Tony. Reigen thankfully switched topics and he shook his head. "No, that's all yours." Ignis didn't come here to drink, the blonde could have everything as far as he was concerned.

Putting his back against the wall, the advisor waited until Reigen settled with the bottle. "I've come here to apologize actually.." His voice trailed off as he looked at a wall. "Tony told me a little of what happened."

He was really here to apologize on the older man's behalf. "I also wanted to personally say thank you for your discretion."

He did eventually get the bottle open after a fight with the cap. "You really don't have to apologize to me, it's fine--oh. He did, huh? How much..." Reigen's expression shifted for a moment into something more contemplative, but then he drank directly from the bottle. Apparently he'd rather risk getting drunk and embarrassing himself in front of Ignis than dwell on that conversation. Straight liquor always had a strange aftertaste to him, so he coughed a little before managing to speak again.

"Ha, g-good stuff! Oh, and you're welcome, I guess? Dunno what I did to be thanked!"
faithfulsupport: (Rather thoughtful)

[personal profile] faithfulsupport 2019-10-08 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
"How much what?" Ignis asked, wondering what Reigen had to say. He waited because the other looked like he was thoughtful. He wasn't sure whether he should push the issue or not but decided against it as he heard Reigen begin to cough.

Should he go and leave the other man alone? He was safely ensconced into his cabin. But if Reigen somehow became a menace, Ignis would feel as if he were at fault. "You were kind enough not to say anything is why you're being thanked." Ignis spoke softly now in case somehow someone outside of the cabin happened to hear him.

"Oh, was gonna ask how much Tony said about it? Not important though! I"m guessing it worked out for you, so--" He took another drink of the bottle. "So whatever, right? Doesn't matter! Man, what kind of liquor is this?" Whatever it was, Reigen was definitely feeling the effects already. He didn't know whether that was because of how quickly he was drinking it or because of placebo effect.

"But yeah, don't even worry about it. You're a good guy, Ignis-kun, I don't want you to half to deal with...with the stuff. With the thing where people make up bullshit about you? What's it called?" There was no way his brain had shut down this quickly, had it? "Rumors! Right, that, especially when people dig up stuff just to humiliate you, it sucks!"
faithfulsupport: (Skeptical)

[personal profile] faithfulsupport 2019-10-08 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
"Enough to know that he was out of line." Ignis replied easily. He shrugged at the question about the alcohol because he really had no idea because he didn't drink.

However, now he was getting suspicious, so he cautiously sat across from Reigen. "Whatever did he tell you?" Really, walking away should've solved the entire thing. But Tony had said he was trying to protect his reputation and knowing the older man he got angry and..it probably went south in a hand basket really fast.

Ignis felt bad and he decided that at least for the time being he would stay here with Reigen and try to help..if he could. "I didn't mean for things to get as out of hand as they did." Tony should've been the one here saying this, but he promised that he would do this task. After all, when he'd taken his position on the council, he figured he'd have to do this eventually. The advisor had no way of knowing that his first mission of smoothing over ruffled feathers would involve him personally however.

[personal profile] internetsexsymbol 2019-10-08 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
Reigen sat down, feeling a slight headache coming on. "Man, I'm still not good at this..." He muttered, staring at the drink for a moment before setting it on the table and addressing Ignis' questions.

"He just told me to keep quiet? Was gonna anyway, 'course. There was a bit of yelling...ugh, I don't wanna get you involved in shit. It's'not your fault, really." His stare went back to the bottle, preferring to stare at the sloshing liquid rather than look Ignis in the eye right now. "I'm kinda used to this kind of thing happening? 'm fine." Not that Ignis would even know what Reigen meant by 'this kind of thing'. Ruining his relationships, he guessed.

He was just gonna chalk up how he suddenly felt sweatier than usual and how dry his mouth felt despite having just drank to the side-effects of alcohol.
faithfulsupport: (Look right)

[personal profile] faithfulsupport 2019-10-08 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
Ignis considered it his fault because he knew that he should've dragged Tony with him but he didn't so his head shook. "I'm sorry." He had no idea what Reigen meant but that didn't stop him from being concerned.

He had a feeling there was more to this since the other man wasn't looking at him but he'd figure that out at another time. He had a feeling this went down worse than he was hearing and he half thought to sit the two down and have them talk this out like gentlemen. Reigen was in no mood to hear that suggestion right now and the advisor decided that he would broach it at a later date. Tony valued this man's friendship and Ignis didn't want to see anything happen to that.

Green eyes looked at the blonde, not sure what else to say or do as far as the reason he was here. So he tried a different approach.

"Can I get you anything else?"

"Why are you apologizing now? You're not even the guy who yelled at me... Jeez, you're too damn nice, Ignis-kun! People are gonna take advantage of it, if you don't careful...if you're not careful?" Reigen squinted in thought, trying to work out where he had messed up that sentence, before eventually giving up. "Whatever, what was my point? I had a point. Oh, right. I can handle people gettin' pissed at me. You get used to it."

He tried to take another sip of alcohol, but it was starting to leave a nasty aftertaste in his mouth. "That's, uh...no, I'm fine...is there a reason you're being so nice to me, besides feeling guilty?"
faithfulsupport: (What was that again?)

[personal profile] faithfulsupport 2019-10-09 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Ignis smiled at Reigen saying that he was too damn nice and that people were going to take advantage of it. But his head shook. "There was no need for it, so that is why I'm apologizing you. It should've ended when I left." On that he was firm.

"I wanted to make sure you were alright." He knew Tony could say some pretty cruel things if his temper was flared. And if things went the way it was described to him, that was indeed the case here.

Tony would have to do his own apology still.

[personal profile] internetsexsymbol 2019-10-09 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
Reigen wasn't entirely sure how to respond to that, aside from a strange sense of guilt over the fact that Ignis had to deal with him. Especially right now, when he'd deliberately started drinking to avoid having to have this conversation because he was a stupid idiot.

"That's...you really don't have to waste your time. I'm fine." He was starting to feel sick. Definitely because of the alcohol and nothing else.

[personal profile] faithfulsupport 2019-10-09 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
The advisor frowned at the words, and wanted to refute them but he wasn't going to force his presence on someone who didn't seem to want him around.

"If you're sure, then I'm going to go."

Ignis wasn't sure he should just leave Reigen like this. He did want to say it was his time to 'waste' so to speak but that might sound argumentative and he was more than sure the other man had his fill of that for one day.

[personal profile] internetsexsymbol 2019-10-11 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
"Ignis?" Reigen managed to get out. He wasn't even sure what he wanted to say to him, honestly.

"Um...thanks. For coming over here, I...I'll see you tomorrow." It probably was better that Reigen dealt with the after-effects of his feelings and intoxication alone, but it was kind of nice that someone thought of him even if they didn't need to.
faithfulsupport: (Turning away)

[personal profile] faithfulsupport 2019-10-11 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Turning at hearing his name, Ignis stopped immediately and looked over at the blonde man. Did he want him to stay?

Hearing the dismissal in the tone, it was pretty much what he'd expected really. So he nodded. "I will see you tomorrow Reigen, take care."

And then he turned and walked out.
