Turned to Drink

He finds Allan, drunk, being sick outside the Inn, without his money.

“I keep telling you that you shouldn’t gamble,” Will chastises, exasperated, as he stands over the other outlaw.
Allan wipes his mouth, “what else am I gonna do with my money? Buy you a pretty dress?”
Will considers quite seriously for a moment. “I wouldn’t mind,” he offers, after some thought.

Allan pauses, then tips his head back and laughs, staggering a little.

 Will can’t help but smile back, taking his companion’s shoulders to lead him away.

“You’d look alright in a dress, mind,” Allan remarks, grinning foolishly, “Pretty boy that you are.”
“I was joking,” Will replies, evenly.
“Sure,” Allan giggles – and when he kisses him, later that night, Will can still taste the alcohol curling darkly on his tongue, and doesn’t care.
