Summary:
"Thought you were getting me drunk to interrogate me about my woes," Lasso murmurs, peering at Roy curiously and taking an appreciative sip.
Roy shrugs. "I am getting you drunk. Up to you whether you want to actually talk. I don't give a fuck one way or the other." This is a lie. He cares a hell of a lot. But he's already made the offer; from here on out, it isn't up to him.
*
Roy may not be great at dealing with feelings—his own or anyone else's—but it doesn't take a genius to notice Coach Lasso's shit mood after Michelle and Henry's visit. Probably Roy is the last person who should try to help.
