The bathroom tiles were cool against my hand
CHARACTERS: Hawkeye and you! Yes, you!
DATE: November
LOCATION: Hawkeye’s Clinic
SITUATION: Settling in, making waves, shaking hands, making friends
WARNINGS: Blanket warning that war and injury may come up
Hawkeye wakes up to sunlight instead of Radar yelling for helicopters. He has his coffee unhurried, plans out his day. No Frank to yell at him for not shaving, but no Trap to chew the fat with, either. Nobody to complain with about breakfast. It’s too quiet. If he doesn’t see a human person in the next hour, he’s going to start gnawing his own limbs off.
So from about 8am-6pm, the clinic is staffed. The sign out the front reads ‘Hawkeye’s Clinic, happy hour 6-7pm’, and underneath that, more recently, a smaller sign reads ‘100% satisfaction rate; just ask the survivors!’
Inside, Hawkeye is either cleaning, running his tabletop still for alcohol to disinfect with (or drink), or organising his small array of client notes.
If you actually visit during the signposted happy hour, the table in the middle of the clinic has a tablecloth draped over it, and Hawkeye stands there polishing the couple of glasses he owns. Someone should get him some decent barware. There’s a couple of stools, and he grins as you enter. He’s playing bartender. Indulge him?
After happy hour, the ‘bar’ gets packed up and the clinic gets scrubbed down. If you’ve got a standing invitation for cards, a date, or just want to check in on him off-hours, this is the time to do it. Find him out on his front doorstep with his nose in a book, leaning out the window with a martini in hand and watching the street, or doing something upstairs, the sound of a pleasant baritone muddling through something jazzy.
(Hit me!)

Press my corpse against the wall

I told the band to leave without me

I'll get the next flight

It’s a full thirty seconds before his mouth opens and closes soundlessly, and another ten before he can manage to cover his face with both hands but not before an embarrassed smile is visible.
“Uh—I—you—uhhhhh…”

"You- you just got the same look as one my buddies from home, only he was five foot and uh- willowy. You alright? Lights are all still on in there?"
no subject
“Yeah, uh—yeah. Just…yeah.” He laughs. “Did, uh—did that happen to your buddy cause you were flirting with him, too?”
Thought that was…pretty aggressive for flirting. Chew on his arms—there’s flirting to improve morale and then there’s just…that.

Sorry Radar.
"Anyway. Won't happen again unless I need to make coffee using only your head. Didn't mean anything by it."

"Nah, it's fine, really. Kind of a good...demonstration, even." he assures him. "I mean--I'd probably actually have a stroke if I ever came on that strong, but...I think I get it. Y'know--my own version of 'hi I wanna chew--shit--chew on your biceps."
He interrupts himself with another laugh, scrubbing his hands over his face briskly one more time.
"You got a hell of a mouth on you. It's...refreshing."

"I think I'm just too old-" at the ripe old age of 28- "for beating around the bush, you know? Either they're interested or they're not, I've got no time for teenage hokum. Did that once. It was awful the first time, I won't be making any of the other showings."
