[LUCERNE.]

— Lucerne's thoughts had been interrupted by white noise. A low ringing in his ears, sounded like voices. In slow motion, he breathed in deeply, the floral scent enveloping his senses, before exhaling. Eyes peeled open slowly to reveal two figured stood nearby him, the tall and limber man raising his head, lips parted and eyes distant and almost glazed over as he searched Addy and Mike's gazes. They'd been talking, words barely audible enough for him to try and guess what they'd been saying. Perhaps he'd been stood like a fool for several seconds, gawking over at the two men, flower falling from between his fingertips before he could somewhat snap back into reality.

As if he was suddenly functioning once more, he blinked, snapping his jaw closed before uttering to himself, "Oh, uh.." Eyes lowered to the flower that had since fallen to the ground, quick to lean down to pick it up again. "Looked edible." A flower so inconspicuous, so normal...

He was making little sense.

This had always been a difficulty in reading the man. He always had made little sense. He was by no means of unsound mind but perhaps Lucerne's brain worked in a different way. It was what he would tell himself, anyway. He never thought like them, spoke like them, hell he was nothing like them. He was strange, but strange was what made him Lucerne. But, with that being said, there was a very fine line between strange and being so inebriated that even he barely recognized his self-destructive actions.

Eyebrows furrowed towards Addy, chin tipping upwards as he searched the man's gaze. He appeared amused, yet Lucerne could not understand what could possibly be so amusing. Next, shifty eyes turned to Mike, the man asking him a lighthearted question. "Well, Michael, everything is coming up roses, one might say." He mumbled, cracking a smile, although it was as unintentionally arrogant and snide as usual, before Cat approached and commented.

Lucerne took a small step back, knees feeling slightly weak. He quickly tossed the plant aside as they began to talk about him growing soft, before Lucerne realized they were in fact defending his actions. Or more so, dismissing them unlike the other two. "Just trying to enjoy the finer things in life. La joie de vivre! Try it someday, perhaps it will make you - make you all more pleasant to associate myself with."
