Let's do the time warp again (for Jean-Claude)
Joscelin finds himself back at Guilty Pleasures barely two or three days after his last visit. That's not like him. He's not usually this...dutiful. But part of him wants to check in on Jean-Claude, make sure he's not still drowning in the flood of maudlin sentiment that had threatened to overtake his friend earlier in the week.
It's four o'clock in the afternoon; the club is dead and no one pays him a second glance as he ghosts past the bar towards Jean-Claude's office. They know him here by now. He stands in the doorway, paying lip service to formality with a perfunctory knock but not really paying attention to the answer. If Jean-Claude doesn't want him here, he'll tell him.
He holds up the expensive--and very well aged--bottle of cognac he'd brought with him. "I come bearing gifts." He plunks it down on Jean-Claude's desk and smiles. "I suppose it's rather gauche of me to bring my own liquor to an establishment such as this, but this is quite interesting stuff. Found it amongst some old things."
