[IC] - An Unusually Quiet Return

[americasempire]

[One would think that almost two weeks away from Hammerspace should be a blessing. But in New York's case, he found himself missing this place if only because...home and work took a very large toll on him. It was the first time he ever wanted to come back to Hammerspace

*While Texas wasn't aware of New York's return, he had made it a habit to check the other's room. Just in case really. He told himself it was so that he could be rid of the kitten he always carried with him in his bandanna... And perhaps to exercise some as well, and get out of bed. A good escape from Houston for a while.*

*But for some reason, this time, Sam seemed unusually excited. He mewed alot, and pawed at Texas' chin and stubble, and kept twisting around in his bandanna-sling, trying to look ahead.*

*The kitten moved a paw out of the bandanna, toward New York's door, when they finally reached it.*

Goddamn, Sam, what's got into you...

*Still, Texas knocked. And Sam meowed, as if he knew his master was there.*

[When New York heard the knock, he really had to debate for a minute as to whether or not he wanted to get up and answer it. He knew he looked as bad as he felt, and wasn't sure whether or not he wanted anyone to see him right now.]

[But, for some reason, he decided otherwise. Not willing to actually get up though, he just projected his voice. He didn't even care if it was someone he didn't want to see right now.]

Door's open.

*Texas' eyes widened- Now he got it. Sam must have smelled New York.*

*The kitten meowed again, getting very excited and squirming a little as Texas opened the door and stepped in.*

Michael-

*And after a moment's hesitation (more in shock of seeing New York lying down), he rushed to the side of his bed. He knelt down with a soft grunt, ignoring the twinges of pain in his ribs. Sam moved his head to look out over the top of his bandanna sling to see his master, and mewed.*

What happened, Darlin'?

Hank?

[New York moved his head so he could see Texas, and mustered up a smile. When he saw Sam in the bandanna he laughed a bit and lifted his hand to pet him gently. He missed both Sam and Texas, so...maybe this wasn't so bad. He looked back up at the other state.]

Just some...trouble at home.
