[York's standing near the entrance to the Leverage Tower, hoping this is all just some kind of sick joke by the castle. But his gut tells him otherwise, that Parker really is gone.

He should really know better than to make friends, shouldn't he?]



Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away,
Now it looks as though they're here to stay,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly,
I'm not half the man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me,
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she
Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said,
Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.



Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Why she
Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said,
Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.

[Exactly.]

Some of the time. Mostly it was just...dangerous. That's why all the armor.

[wereall_addicts]

[shrugs]

Most things interesting have an element of danger to them.

[encryptedlock]

Well, true enough. Lot easier to remember zombie attacks or dinosaurs or whatever than just day-to-day stuff.

[He takes a drink of the whiskey and he raises an eyebrow in appreciation.]

Good stuff.

[comes in from work, spotted the very ... short list of names and spots York and Sophie]

Hey. [gives Sophie a nod] Just you and me now.

[then to York]

Good to see you. Sorry it's because of this.

[wereall_addicts]

[nods]

Unfortunately. Drink?

[smirk]

Castle sent Nate home, but left his booze behind.

[encryptedlock]

Know I needed one.

[He nods at Eliot.]

Yeah, well. Guess nothing good stays forever.

[verydistinctive.livejournal.com]

[nods and sits on the couch]

Yeah. [chuckles a bit] I can't help but think they're all gone just because they weren't caught up to us yet.

They might find their way back off that oil tanker.

[takes the drink from Sophie, for once grateful that he can, not that he'll go into excess]

[wereall_addicts]

[hums softly in agreement at that]

Hopefully Nate won't do anything stupid.

[encryptedlock]

[That merits a ghost of a smile from York.]

So you guys get into even more trouble back home than you do here, huh?

[verydistinctive.livejournal.com]

[a look of, trouble? who? us?]

Nah. We get things done. [glance to Sophie] Not always the smartest way though.

[wereall_addicts]

We do what we can, where and when we can. You'd be surprised how well trouble can pay the rent.

[encryptedlock]

Tell me about it. [It sounds like fun. ;;]

So...I don't mean to pry or anything, but, well. Is Parker--is she okay back home?

[verydistinctive.livejournal.com]

[gives York an understanding glance]

Last the two of us know, we're all back together. Parker actually hugged her. [points to Sophie, because well, Parker and emotions ... that's weird]

She'll be alright. [he thinks... though, he's got a bad feeling, that he'll keep hidden for now]

[wereall_addicts]

[nods]

She's learned to handle things in her own interesting way.

[encryptedlock]

[York looks relieved and takes another drink of the fine whiskey.]

Good. Good, I'm glad to hear that. [Because if they said they were ahead of her, and she's still okay by then, he can hope.]

Thanks, and...I'm sorry about your other friends leaving, too.
