I'm only tangled up in this mess again because you decided to drag me back in. Remind me again which one of us got caught, Junior.

[ Rufus does have a point, as loath as Alec is to admit it. Alec didn't have to show up when Rufus called, he didn't have to shove a change of clothes at him or introduce him to Bobby or get on this train.

But here he is, for some mind-boggling, stupid reason that he doesn't even know himself.

Alec leans back as well, arms crossed and looking none to happy with... anything, pretty much. Maybe Rufus will get eaten by a brood of angry drakes and put an end to his troubles here and now. ]

You do that.
