[ Rude just stares at his phone, alright that is being way too sensitive about someone's name.

He heads to the bar where he and Gokudera had the long chat. Given the collar around his neck, he couldn't exactly order something at the bar, so instead, he finds a table to sit at and waits for the other. ]

[Gokudera doesn't feel like he's in the wrong for wanting to protect himself. He hasn't even mentioned to Rude that Blackbeard was boasting about feeding some other guy his own toe! That can wait.

He walks into the bar in much better, human shape than the last time he'd met Rude (minus the black eye he's currently sporting), and orders them each a water and a beer.]

You hungry?

[He asks, setting down their drinks as he makes his way to the table from the bar.]

[ Rude is glad to see him in human form, but the black eye has him frowning. ]

Don't tell me Jeff did that?

[ He picks up one of the beers and takes a long sip from it. ]

I am good, thank you. Ate back at the house.

[ The biggest change in Rude's appearance is that the tie is gone and the top button on his shirt is open. Around his neck is a collar that looks like it is made to choke him if you pull on it right. It is all leather, the base black but the center more elaborate with gilding and tooled leather. ]
