Apparently I lied about not writing any more Noir until after the Ficlympics were over. However, this piece had been sitting in my brain since THX’s last piece. Sadly, the 1024 character limit prevented me from having Nick stub his toes during his search. Ah well… such is life.

funny moment for Nick and helps tie up Tugger’s crazy move a bit.

Anticlimactic. Next time he’ll think “Oh that’s just Tugger” and get caught.

I liked it, and it fits for an alcohol-addled night with a missed moment or two in time. Fun.
