WHO: Rosa Diaz & Jake Peralta
WHERE: Some Maurtia Falls dive bar
WHEN: April
WHAT: Jake tries really, really, really, REALLY hard to be Rosa's confidante. It may or may not work out in his favor.
WARNINGS: N/A, will update as needed.
Picture this: a seedy, dimly lit dive bar, with Jake and Rosa opposite each other in a booth at the back. There's a low murmur from the mass of humanity, the smell of deeply entrenched stale beer and spirits wafting up from every surface in the joint. No one's smoking, and yet, the air has a strange fog to it, stinging the nostrils. Some of the lights are flickering, others are out and haven't been replaced. There's the clink of glassware, the glug of poured alcohol, the scrape of stools against the ground.
But Rosa and Jake are pretty separate from the beating heart of the room, neither really wanting to descend into its belly entirely. Each has a drink in front of them, and each of them is looking into their drinks' liquid depths like they'll find the answers to life. Or maybe Jake is trying to think of the perfect Die Hard quote to ascribe to the moment. Maybe Rosa's thinking about what she can legally destroy with the largest sword she can manifest without getting into any sort of trouble. Whatever it might be, they're introspective, and Rosa doesn't look too thrilled.
It isn't the company, it isn't the locale. It's something else.
"Shit sucks."
Hope that explains everything, Jake. Good luck.
