i must not fear and i will not bow,  | And there it was. The point where Hide got so hammered that he blurt just about anything out. Suro simply adjusted his glasses when he mentioned him actually getting drunk, he probably would never see that but for now he could humour his friend. "Maybe one day, but for now I'm at my limit. I do have work in the morning after all, and what kind of cop would I be if I showed up to work with a hangover?" The point was legitimate but Hide probably wouldn't like it, he always wanted to make Suro have more fun then he allowed himself but he'd have to keep trying. A sigh and the lightest hint of red came to him face as he accused the poor waitress of being a slut, good thing she and her boyfriend were far out of ear shot. "One day your words are going to get you clocked in the jaw my friend." He muttered shaking his head.
Mysterious angle? He never really thought he was the mysterious type of person but maybe Hide had a point. Suro wasn't much of a talker really, but with close people like Hide he could very well hold a conversation. For a moment he felt offended by the comment on not mentioning he was a cop to the girl, but chewing it over Hide was probably right. It might intimidate her and he didn't want that. Suro grinned nodding to Hide.
"Yes I understand."
The officer checked his watch, it was getting late. "It's almost one, we should get going they'll be closing soon." |

He knew well that Suro was just lying to get out of actually getting drunk, but if he rationalized hard enough he could understand why. He sure as hell wouldn't want to be a cop, but doing that job on a hang over. If put in Hide's hands he would be suspended within a couple hours for beating someone with a baton.
After giving the pink haired waitress and her supposed boyfriend a pointed glance, he turned his attention to his friend and smirked at what he'd said. "That's where you got it wrong. I have been clocked in the jaw before, but that's not gonna stop me. That's when you get up and punch back." Simple solution, that further showed just how violent Hide was.
Running his fingers through his messy raven locks he stretched out his other arm and peeked over at another waitress that walked passed their table. He couldn't deny the girls here were something to look at. However, the sudden mention of going home drew his attention to one individual in particular.
"Seriously?" Man, and they hadn't even been here for that long. Or maybe it just felt that way, but it didn't matter. Hide wasn't going home, at least not to his own, and he wouldn't be persuaded to do so either. "Being a cop must be the boringest job ever if you can't even get drunk when you want. There's got to be other people you work with that hit the bar."
It wasn't like most cops did anything anyway. The only one that put in effort was Suro, though it might just be his bias, Hide had seen how much effort he put in first hand. However, Katsuro was just one man, and it took more than that to stop bastards like Hide from being out on the street.
Speaking of which, it randomly occurred to him to ask, but, "Do any of your 'cop friends' know about me?" If they were friends, or what Hide did for a living. There's no way that if they knew the truth they would want Suro to hang out with them. |  ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

i must not fear and i will not bow, | Why did that not surprise him? Come to think he was almost sure he'd seen Hide get punched in the face a few times during their years together in school. Boring? Well, some if it could be, but it was a job that was worth doing if it meant you could save lives. "Some of it is, paperwork is abundant and it's never enjoyable but it has to be done. Plus, there are perks." Like the fact he could carry a gun on him at all times but he kept that to himself. There was also the incredible feeling of knowing you truly helped someone and hearing them say a very hearty thank you. It was satisfying.
Did any of them know about him? Suro leaned back in his seat arms folded as he thought. "I don't think so." He said shaking his head after a moment. "Even if they do they haven't approached me about it, guess they think it's none of their business." He didn't really do a lot of talking with his co-workers, it was mostly his partner, the chief, and some short conversations here and there. Even then those were mostly about work. Suro could tell Hide was a little worried by the tone in his voice, but he didn't need to worry even if it was frowned upon that wouldn't stop Suro from seeing his close friend. They had been through far too much together, Suro couldn't just abandon him like that.
"Come on, why don't I introduce you to Rie? Maybe you could help me kitten proof my house." He smiled hoping to lighten the mood a little. |

He was supposed to think that was a good thing, that the other people Suro knew didn't know what he did for a living. Or else THEY'D be the ones knocking on his door to take him in, rather than Suro just coming to visit. However, maybe this was just the alcohol, but Hide couldn't help but feel that Katsuro was ashamed of him.
He would be to, if he had to put up with someone of his nature. He didn't have half the patience that the man across from him did, and he had no idea how they'd stuck together for so long when they were so different. Maybe Suro felt bad, because of what happened to his mother. Even the mere thought of her made him scowl and look away. "Whatever."
There were very few people he could think of that genuinely cared about him. He could count them on his fingers there were so few, and sometimes when he drank too much Hide questioned why such people even did care -if that were even the case. He was mostly a burden to them, rather than something good or positive. And in the worst parts of his negativity, he told himself it wasn't because they cared at all, but that they probably just felt bad because of his family situation, his childhood, and the mess he always got into now. "You're ashamed of me."
Pity.
Hide's face was turning red, from the alcohol, and that word that echoed in his mind. He huffed, shrugging his shoulders as he peeked over at Suro with a halfhearted glare. He wasn't going anywhere with anyone. Hide slid out of his seat, and grabbed his phone from the table. Shoving it in the back pocket of his jeans he ran a hand through his hair to get his bangs out of his warm face, and took long strides toward the door. The looks he received while shoving people carelessly out of the way were warranted.
If anyone so much as touched him though, he felt he might break their neck. | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

i must not fear and i will not bow, | Oh brother here we go Suro thought, the booze was making him go into his self concious state again. Hide looked away, then gave a half meant glare toward Suro then claimed he was ashamed of him. Suro would have been offended if he didn't know that was the alcohol talking. He sighed watching Hide get up and leave, standing to tail behind him quickly. He had to keep an eye on him. "Hide you know that isn't true, you know I'm not a very talkative guy with other people. I'm too absorbed in my work for idle chit chat about people I know." He said keeping up with Hide's pace and apologizing to the people he pushed out of his way. Suro ruffled his hair as he slipped out of the door right behind him.
"You're my best friend, I wouldn't call you that if I was ashamed of it. And you are my best friend because even though we are different I know that deep down you have good intentions, you care about the people closest to you, you just have a different way of showing it. For the love of- will you slow down!?" He shouted having to nearly jog to keep up with his intoxicated friend.
Suro quickly pulled Hide closer to him as he began wandering off toward the edge of the side walk, and just in time to dodge the side view mirror of a bus. "Besides, maybe a few do know, the question is why should I care? It's my life, you're my friend, no matter what say they have I'm not going to just drop you on the corner and leave you there." |

He never would have been this outright with his insecurities when he was sober, but after drinking sometimes it just happened. It was something he thought about regularly whether sober or otherwise, so it was bound to come up when he was inebriated. He'd feel bad about it tomorrow morning, while groaning in bed from a hang over. Maybe enough to even apologize.
He rolled his eyes whilst hearing the man stand and walk to catch up, the sound of his voice muttering apologies to the people that got in his way getting under his skin if only a little more. Being apologized for made him feel like they were kids. Though he did worse things now than he had when he was a teenager.
He had little intention of slowing down, until he felt a hand grab him. He stumbled over, further into the sidewalk after hearing the buzz of traffic pass his left side. He hadn't realized he'd nearly been walking off the edge of the sidewalk, but it was dark and walking a straight line at the moment was a challenge. Ah but the momentum of the pull made him feel sick.
Hide turned, and took a pair of uneasy steps away from Suro before turning to face him. His words were heard then, despite the sound of traffic beside them. He took them to heart, he really did, which was why he stopped, but Hide knew deep down he'd always be the problem.
"Are you telling the truth?" He tilted his head curious for the answer he'd receive. "You don't care, even though your best friend is a criminal?" Best friend, it was such a cheesy thing to say, but secretly Hide did feel the same. Even though he called a cop his best friend. | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

i must not fear and i will not bow, | Hide stumbled a little from the force of the pull Suro making sure to watch him, he didn't need his best friend run over tonight. Hide was difficult sometimes, but Suro knew that he could count on him and in the end that was what mattered. "Of course I mean it, I wouldn't be saying it if it wasn't true. So what if you're a criminal? You've helped me countless of times during investigations, sometimes I think you should become a cop. We could have the whole 'good cop bad cop' thing going for us." Suro chuckled, imagining Hide in uniform carrying around a badge was pretty funny. Though a small part of him wished that he would join the force, he could always use the back up.
"So stop being so insecure, it's not you." He shoved his shoulder lightly with the palm of his hand, steadying his friend again in case the force made him wobble and possibly fall. "I'll make you a deal, next time we head out to the bar I will get drunk, just for your entertainment. Who knows maybe I'll be the one to start a fight?" Lord he hoped not, that was the last thing he needed on his record. The headlines flashed in his head: "Police man arrested for starting massive bar fight". Though, he guessed at that moment it would be pretty damn funny.
Though it wouldn't be worth his badge.
Suro looked up at the darkened sky, night always made him nervous, things crept around at night and those things weren't always friendly. "I should get back, Rie must be hungry and the last thing I want is to find her trying to eat pocket lint again." |

Hideo scoffed at the proposition. "Me a cop?" It was more than comical, ironic as hell. He lowered his eyes to the pavement, rubbing the back of his neck as he tried to keep his balance on his own. He could never be a damn cop, but the fantasy of it was amusing to mull over. The uniform though, egh. It looked itchy and uncomfortable and there's no way he'd enjoy wearing one.
The shoulder shove made him look up at his friend as his body swayed. Hide had to reach out to grasp Suro's shoulder, feeling ridiculous while not being able to stand well, but also for probably saying some stupid shit he didn't mean. "Tch, unlikely. You work too much." Though the thought of Suro of all people getting in a bar fight made him smile.
"Could you imagine the news? Just leave the fighting to me." Great minds thought alike, and he could picture it too. Cop gets arrested for starting a bar fight. Hide didn't want Suro to get fired. He'd be fine with spending a night in holding if it meant Katsuro didn't lose his job. It was far more important than his own, obviously.
"Tch you didn't put her in a little kennel or something? Take me with you." He'd need the help, and if he wasn't too sick tomorrow morning he just might take care of the cat while Suro was gone. "So you're sticking with Rie huh?" Hide leaned against the man unintentionally, his breath strong of beer and rice wine. |  ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

i must not fear and i will not bow, | Okay, leave the fighting to him, that could be arranged. Carefully Suro kept a firm but not too grabby hold on his friend, he didn't mind the smell of the beer and the rice wine he just hoped Hide didn't puke on the way home. Highly unlikely since his friend could hold his liquor well but stranger things had certainly happened. As they walked he talked about putting Rie in a kennel and to take him there, that might be for the best since he didn't want Hide wandering off alone in this state. "I don't want her to feel cramped, like she's being punished just because I'm gone. She should be free to explore and familiarize herself with the place she's calling home now, plus I couldn't bare to see the look she'd give me when I got home." Those big doe eyes, it was what made him take her home in the first place. He had also read cats could be pretty loud, he didn't want his neighbours complaining about her wailing in her cage while he was gone.
"Yeah, it fits her well. I never thought I'd own a cat, kind of strange. Isn't the stereotype that I have a massive dog? A pit bull or some form of mastiff?" He chuckled, no he was the very proud owner of a sweet baby kitten. It had only dawned on him how lonely he had been when he had decided to bring her home with him, a pet would do him good. "I think she'll like you, then again cats have always seemed to like you."
Animals were good judges of people, you could always tell the character of a person by the way an animal acted around them. |

Well didn't he feel all nice and fuzzy inside knowing Suro was naming his cat after one he'd given him. So cliche, but it was kind of adorable that his usually stoic friend was head over heels for his new pet. Perhaps it was what he needed. Hide lived alone, but he usually had company or slept at other people's places. Suro on the other hand- surely he got lonely living by himself.
"Aaaish fine fine." He retorted, waving off the suggestion to put the little thing in a kennel. He wasn't being entirely serious, but most cats -at least ones he had- were generally well behaved. It had been a while since he'd had to take care of a kitten though. "But you better have shut all of the doors and such. If she got into something that could hurt her you'd regret it."
Especially a kitten. Cats were generally curious things already, but a kitten would try and get into anything and everything if they were set without limits.
"What's more funny.." Hide laughed, "Is that I can't picture you with a pit bull whatsoever." Big dogs just didn't suit Suro in his opinion. The cat was perfect, and either way it would attract ladies if he took her out. "That is because I'm just a great person." The raven haired man boasted confidently, his prior insecurities tucked back away into the small drawer in the back of his mind. Though really he was being sarcastic for the most part. Hide was 'great' at being a terrible influence, but he was great at drinking so there was that.
"Or maybe in another life I was some sort of cat god. That sounds way fuckin cooler." | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

i must not fear and i will not bow, | "Yeah, I made sure the doors were closed before I left, I'd be devastated if she got hurt." He hadn't even owned her for a week and already she had tumbled her way into his heart. Suro took a moment to think to himself, and after a minute he definitely couldn't see himself with a dog. Not only did his apartments not allow big dogs but he just couldn't really own one. He liked dogs, he just couldn't see himself with one at this point in his life. "Yeah, neither can I." He smiled shaking his head.
A cat god? With a deep chuckle he rolled his eyes and helped his friend around the corner. "Yes I'm sure you were a benevolent cat god, feared by all felines, they quaked in fear at the mention of your very name." He had to keep himself from laughing too early as he spoke again. "All fear the mighty Fluffy!" He burst into laughter as they walked down the silent street, oh man that would be something. It took him a moment but he coughed slightly gathering his breath again.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't resist." He said taking a hand to dry the side of his eyes. |

"Good job." Now they could just hope she hadn't actually gotten into anything, or better yet torn apart his couch. He'd laugh, without restraint. Ah but for some reason this felt weird. Like they were coming home to their kid after a date. Hide snickered at the thought before Suro totally ruined it by laughing at his brilliant past life.
The more he'd talked about it the more badass it sounded, until the end when he called him fluffy. Tch, he would have never been a house cat that's for damn sure. "What the fuck man," He grumbled, and pushed Suro away, stumbling as he walked before he regained some form of balance.
"It sounded cool until you ruined it. Fluffy tch, that sounds like a house cat, I said GOD." Hide nudged Katsuro again, shoving him roughly at the shoulder as they walked. All that moving around making him waver on his feet again, but he could manage. "Like something you'd worship at a shrine. I'd like to see you fuckin laugh at me then, while I smite your ass."
With that he reached over, tugging on the man's coat and pulled him into a head lock so he could mess up his hair. It was usually the older one that was supposed to do such a thing, but Hide didn't see much of an age gap to be honest. He was just as strong as Suro, if not more so because of his work. He didn't do as much pencil pushing. | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

i must not fear and i will not bow, | With a grumble Hide pushed out from under his hold staggering beside him as he griped about the name he had used. Suro laughed at the thought of Hide smiting him as a cat. He would do it too he knew it. Suro chuckled as Hide locked his head under his arm ruffling his blue hair roughly. The age gap was nothing to them, they were both strong and they knew it. He jabbed playfully at his ribs to make him let go and stood fizing his hair and glasses. "Alright I'm sorry your highness." Oh lord that sounded wrong to him, but Hide would like it much better.
"I could see you as a fat black cat, you would probably make your subjects bring you all the food they could possibly gather." That would fit Hide perfectly, a benevolent and easily angered sort of God. "Alright, let's get back before Rie tries to find her way under the couch. I really don't feel like having a drunk man help me move my couch." He chuckled playfully punching his arm before leading him down the road again.
"Once we get there you can crash on the couch if you want." He knew well Hide hated sleeping at his own house, which didn't make any sense to Suro but he wouldn't argue. He recalled when he'd sneak into his house late at night when they were kids and he'd crash on the floor. He figured that Hide didn't want to be alone at night, too much time alone with his thoughts he guessed. |

"Tch." He tsked, letting go of Suro after feeling that jab to his ribs. As his friend stood up straight again and fussed with his hair and glasses Hide scowled at him, rubbing his side. However, once highness was dropped his features softened and he smiled mischievously. "Damn right."
He did like that, very much. If only his dear friend left it at that instead of opening his mouth to tempt him once more. Hide would have strangled the man if he were anyone else. "Fat? Do I look fat to you? Even as a cat I'd still look fine as hell." Growling he rolled his eyes, holding his arms out to display his figure, which he worked hard on by the way. Sure he ate a lot, whenever food was presented to him, but he always exercised. It was part of his routine. exercise, stuff face, exercise, sleep and repeat.
Setting aside their odd subject he still felt the need to repeat himself defensively. "I'm not fat." His shoulders tensing as Suro punched playfully at his arms. Come on sure he felt how strong his biceps were!
"Fine." Hide replied, taking the opportunity to give Suro one last shove as he walked with him toward his place. There were several reasons why he didn't like being alone much, but Suro was right about one of them. He hated having time to think. It gave him the chance to dwell on things long past, his mother, the poor state of his father, what life would have been like if his mom hadn't died. Useless, things to think about, but he couldn't help it.
He was human too, and regardless of his hard exterior, he had his own 'problems'. | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

i must not fear and i will not bow, | He couldn't fight the chuckle as Hide said that he wasn't fat. "Of course you aren't I'm just joking. Feral is a far better word to use." Yeah, that was the best - and probably the only - word that fit Hide's image of being a cat. He would take orders from no one, like he does now. No one could tame him and he would claw the hell out of anyone who tried. "I will say this: I wouldn't want to piss you off as a God." Vengeful would be a mild way of putting it. If anyone so much as even looked at Cat God Hide wrong they'd be cruising for one unholy bruising.
"If you aren't too hungover tomorrow maybe you could help me pick up the things I need for Rie. I'll even let you hold her when there are cute girls around." Suro was being serious, about the helping part anyway. And maybe he'd let Hide 'borrow' the little one for a little bit, see if he could get someone's number. "You did say she would be a great help in getting someone." He pushed his hands into his pockets, the nights were warm but it was just an impulse.
"I'll set up the couch for you when we get there, I just got these new pillows a few days ago and I haven't slept so well in quite a while." Part of that was because he was on duty a lot of the time, but it was due in part to the fact he sometimes couldn't get comfortable. He used to spend almost an hour and a half tossing and turning, folding his pillow this way and that to find some sort of comfort. Hide should have seen the circles under his eyes last week. |
