Addressing: Alvaro <a class="username" data-user-id="288" data-username="Flannel King" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/288/">Flannel King</a>​</div><br/>Ray had found his way to his liquor cabinet after Alvaro had left, continuing the celebration alone. Not just a celebration for Alvaro, but for himself as well, and the realizations he'd made. He was confident in his planned strides towards his goal, especially with Alvaro's backing. He didn't feel as if he had anything to worry about. His future would come together just like it did for the Hale's who reached out to secure it. He passed out late in his bed, wanting to take the following day to see where his father was placing all the pieces. He would get the report from Alvaro, and then make his moves from there.<br/><br/>The knock woke him an he sat up to listen for a moment, considering ignoring it depending on who was on the other side of the door. A few mumbled curses for his throbbing head and parched throat. When he heard it was Alvaro, he got up to answer it and let the man inside.<br/><br/>"You look worse than I feel," Ray commented, shutting and locking the door. He moved to the bathroom to take a piss, and to brush his teeth, then returned to flop back into the rumpled bedding. It was early, by the looks of it. His father might not have been pleased by the early morning pop in from Alvaro, but Ray welcomed him. The garden house had been a refuge to him and he wanted Alvaro to feel that the arrangement went both ways. Ray would not encroach on the man's space if he didn't offer his own in return.<br/><br/>"You keep drinking after too?" he asked, propping a pillow up behind him and stretching out.
