"Well, he could have taken his demotion like I did, but he decided to transfer and keep his rank."
Sasha watched Jerry closely.

Demotion. Jerry tried to focus on her coat, his brows furrowing. He had been told all of this before, he was pretty sure. Like most things that distressed him, he had tried to block them out. "Oh," He repeated. "Well. Well, that's what... that's what you get for beating up an invalid." It seemed like the thing to say, anyway.

There was a quick flash of hurt that seized Sasha's features before she collected herself.
"I should go."

He said the wrong thing. Hell, hell hell hell hell, "No- no no don't, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," He wobbled upright again, "Please don't. People... people don't really... I mean I don't usually get people over and... and I'm feeling real good, you feeling good? We should go do something maybe! So you can't leave the island at the moment we can figure something out, right? We can still have some fun!"

"Jerry. You are drunk. We certainly aren't leaving this room. What if Simon saw you?"
She crossed her arms over her chest.
"And it's late."

He flopped to the floor for a moment, "You're right. I'm drunk. Ahahahahaha. I wanna' go dancing. See if I got any good dancing music!"

"If you go dancing, with your luck, you will fall down and break your nose. I think you should crawl into bed and consider this night finished."
Her watchful look turned wary, and she slowly edged towards the door.

He stilled on the carpet where he lay, staring up at the ceiling for a moment before twisting to look at her upside down, "Sasha? Do you... do you like me, even? I mean. I don't mean like. I mean... in general. As a per... person."

"I just... just wanted to know." Come to think of it, he was getting pretty tired. And dizzy. The room was dancing for him. It felt nice, and he smiled softly. "M'glad. I miss you."
There was a moment of unintelligible muttering that turned into a soft snore.

Sasha's face softened slightly, and before she left, she took a moment to grab a blanket and a pillow from the bed. The pillow was stuffed under Jerry's head before the blanket was spread over him.
Shaking her head, Sasha whispered a soft, "Goodnight," before leaving Jerry to his snores.
