[He flashes Angel a grin.]
When my old ship's crew had to careen her, they'd set up a tent on the beach, invite attractive company and hold a barbecue for the occasion. First one I was responsible for, I confess I didn't pay proper attention to the barbecue.
It turned out to cause some small problem, as I was the ship's cook at the time.
[For very different reasons than he's implying, but still.]
Not being the sort to live a safe and quiet life, I wanted to ensure I fit in as much living as possible on the off chance I caught a dagger in the back before becoming obscenely rich and retiring to a private island off the shores of sunny Spain.

[Angel does wish he'd been a little better about that instead of spending so much time trying to get high enough to forget the life he was leading.
His lips quirk at that press, casually returning the touch with those long legs of his.]
That still how you're livin' life?~

A man's got to go after what he wants when he has the opportunity, or never get it.
