She didn't have many pictures of him at the party, but what she had was probably enough. There was a picture of him earlier on with a drink in hand, laughing at something. That was innocuous enough, and it was also earlier on when she was trying to get pictures of her friends.

As that hadn't taken too long, she had started on group shots next. Of the intentional ones of him, there was Addy with her arms around his neck, kissing him soundly with Leon standing in the background. Or it was probably Leon, anyway, based on what happened in the next photo. Casey had his hand at her waist.

Next was Leon with the back of Casey's shirt in his hand, and a blur that was Casey being pulled from Adelaide, her face heading toward angry.

The last picture she had was also a bit of a blur, containing people who looked like Addy and - she thought anyway - Rike fighting, with Leon and Casey in the background. The only way she could really tell was to go by their clothing colors and reason it out, since everyone was moving somehow and her camera just wasn't that good.

She handed them over to him, and then looked for his reaction.

Casey's reaction was something to see. The picture of Adelaide with her arms around him caused his eyes to widen as he stared at it. He didn't necessarily believe what he saw but it was proof. There was a small part of him that was a little dismayed at the fact that his first kiss - whatever the strange reason for it was - was one he didn't remember. At all.

He clearly remembered that there was one kid he needed to watch out for. Casey didn't know his name and couldn't remember why, but by the series of pictures he could guess. At least by the way this kid had Casey's shirt in his hand.

The third picture he stared at the longest, squinting as if it would possibly help. He could make out Adelaide, himself, and that other guy, and he was pretty sure the blurred fourth figure was Henrike.

He let out a long breath and sat back in his chair again, handing the pictures back to Rowan. Casey almost looked like he was in a daze. "What's that guy's name?"

Rowan watched him as he looked at the pictures she had handed him, looking at his reactions to each. She didn't quite know what to expect, how much he remembered and how much was a blank for him.

She looked at him as she took the pictures back. "That's Leon Shaw. My house. He's going out with Adelaide, so far as I know..." I won't mention that I know more than that, either...

Her housemate's name was repeated again, although silently, so that he had a better chance of committing it to memory. Casey knew the kid on sight but it never hurt to know the name that went a long with his face.

He'd heard somewhere through the grapevine that Adelaide was dating a Leon, and it was one in the same. Then a thought struck him and he quite visibly cringed and raised a hand to his face. After a moment, Casey carefully opened an eye to look at her. "Were they dating at the time of the party?"

Wincing a little at the cringe, Rowan bit her lip again. Worse of all, she really didn't have anything reassuring to say to him, especially not in answer to his question. She looked over at him and spoke softly when she replied.

"Um... I honestly don't know. I can... find out if you want?" She couldn't exactly ask Leon, as she was probably the last person he wanted to talk to right now, but she would do anything for her friends. The expression on her face turned to one of hopeful consideration.

"Maybe I can ask Adelaide myself. Maybe." He let a small sigh out after the words as he thought. There was a discreet way of doing it, and without possibly alerting Leon. He wasn't sure how Rowan planned to find out but if it avoided that possibility? He'd try.

After a moment, Casey laughed a little bit and shook his head. "I don't know if this means that I should drink more, or if it means that I should never drink again."
