Only one bed

Two characters have to share a room for the night. Every room is occupied, but fortunately there is one last room available.
There's just one problem — there's only one bed, and the characters aren't comfortable sharing it.

He understands there's a storm raging outside. He understands everyone is seeking shelter in the only inn in this place. He also knows no one could pay him to sleep on his own ship where he's got to worry about sea water and the way the harsh winds move his ship like a toy in a very large, very potentially deadly tub.
He isn't sure what possessed him to share a room with Red Hair fucking Shanks again. He should have stayed with his crew -- that's currently partying with Shanks' in the attached bar still, as far as he knows. Or maybe they'll all simply pass out wherever they fall. Maybe he'd rather be down there partying and passing out too.
Not that he didn't bring a couple bottles of rum with him to get through the night.
He takes a swig from one of them and huffs, tapping his foot.
He isn't sure why they were stuck with the room with the one bed, and of course, this is all somehow Shanks' fault. Not the people seeking refuge until morning. "You should take the floor," Buggy declares as he walks towards the bed and sits on the edge, testing the mattress.
"Beauty sleep is very important to me! And I remember your snoring all night."
Does he really? Whatever. Not like Shanks can hear whether he snores in his sleep or not, so Buggy will take his chance to remind the idiot that he is in no way perfect!
hello! :)
But with the arrival of a group in need, the Red Hair pirates and their captain charitably offered to share their rooms and their booze. How could Buggy's crew refuse?
As they're both becoming tired, Shanks offers to show Buggy his room. Naturally, he'll have to share, which must amuse Shanks to no end. He sits at a small table with a bottle of whiskey in hand.
"But I paid for the bed," he reminds. "Besides, it'll be like when we were kids. It'll be fun."
Hellooo! <:
"And a good host would sacrifice his comfort for a guest!" Never mind that Buggy is hardly a guest. But it isn't his fault they were caught out in the rain! Or that the inn was too full up!
