Staggering out of medbay, the bedraggled Pooky paused for a moment, leaning against the lockers and panting heavily. Shoving off of the locker, Pooky staggered
onward, wending a drunken course towards the entrance teleporter, and stopped as Terrence and Emerald came out of the showers, Terrence wearing his
'default' scowl and a towel, Emerald wearing two and snapping a third.
Idly, Pooky noted Mr. Whiskers had a dishcloth wrapped around him as well, as he struggled out of his leather coat.
"Terr! 's good.. hold m' coat, plsh"
Terrence helped the staggering imp out of his coat, then boggled as Pooky reached back inside his recently-removed coat, and pulled out a massive revolver.
"Thanksh, man!" Pooky slurred cheerfully, took two big steps back, then shot himself in the head. The explosion of the revolver made the two heroes
jump. Emerald jumped behind Terrence, who merely twitched. As the echoes from his shot reverbrated about the hall, Pooky arose, the normally-golden flames of
the Phoenix shining an eerie blue-white. As he landed, Pooky knelt and picked up his hat. Examining it for holes, Pooky walked back to Terrence and took his
coat.
"No better way in the world to get rid of a hangover!" Pooky said brightly, shucking his coat on.
"Cheers!" He said over his shoulder, flying into the entrance teleporter.
"No can brain today. Want cheezeburger."
