What was he doing?
Even as his own body moved on it's own, after arriving at the casino, his mind was in a struggle. A large part of him was yelling at him to turn around and walk out, either to save him from embarrassment or further damage to their relationship, or to go back to Coardi and continue their... day?
He got as far as the first tables and turned around. He was about to leave, but his ears perked up.
"... crazy... last I saw the woman was already grabbing people."
"Geeze, it must only be a matter of time before that Trill starts really getting into it."
"I know what you mean, I wish I could stay. Especially after their friend arrives."
"Psh, I bet I could bring a holoimager and claim I'm their friend, they're probably too drunk to notice..."
A mixture of emotion welled up in him. Trill. He would bet anything that it wasn't a Trill, but an Etimonian. He wanted to join in, but at the same time, he didn't. He wanted to look out for her, care for her, protect her... show her that he was not the person she thought he was. And to be perfectly honest, part of him was feeling a heavy bit of jealousy over the idea of Tahp engaging in such activities with others. It was wrong, and he understood that, but the heart never did care what the mind knew.
Pushing his way through the casino floor, he made his way around the tables and standing onlookers, and only just started looking for threats or security. They had to be around here somewhere. Even Risa had limits, right?
Finally he broke through the group, and was about to step towards them when he was grabbed by someone else.
"Hey! Where do you think you're going?"
Nevir pursed his lips and glared back. "I'm going to join my friends." he said, pulling his arm away before the guy could do anything else, and moving rather quickly towards Tahp and Henri... while the older officer was busy with personal contact. Well.. thanks to Tahp, actually.
"Tahp." he said, after closing the distance and finally understanding what they were talking about on the comm. "Before you ask, yes, I have the holo. How many bananas have you had, and do you understand what you are asking me to do?" he said, with a smirk and crossing his arms, but not before taking out the imager.
