 Yancy's always been the sort of unattainable older guy that Chuck grew up unable to really be friendly with, let alone anything else. He was more of a parent to Raleigh and Jaz than a big broth, at least while they're in school, and Chuck was barely friends with them. 

Sort of, yeah, and he's a little surprised Yancy's still speaking to him after the fights he and Raleigh got into once or twice. 

They reconnected after Chuck got into college and moved into an apartment close to campus. He hangs out with the Beckets, sometimes collectively and sometimes individually. 

And he and Yancy are close enough to text each other about personal crap (like girls who want to invite you to her uncle's funeral for the fourth date) and for Yancy to help get Chuck into bars and drink it out.

"I lived in the T. So named by the students because the building's shaped like a giant T." He gestures vaguely in a sort of T like shape.

"Which you would've known if you'd ever visited me." Chuck pretends to scowl at Yancy. In reality, he doesn't expect Yancy to have had any interest in visiting a college dorm. or Chuck, at that time.

Yancy snorts - he can tell Chuck's kidding (or at least, he better be), and he rolls his eyes.

"Please. I had my fill of dorm life already."

"You mean you don't miss a drunk group of assholes coming home at four in the morning the night before an exam?"

Chuck grins lazily and wraps a hand around the new beer set in front of him.

Nevermind Chuck'd been known to be among them once or twice.

"Can't think of a lot of things that irritated me more."

Seriously, Chuck.

"Cars honking at eight in the morning."

What?

Chuck tilts his head back to start at the new beer. "Should we be eating something in between these?"

[getcocky]

"Good point. That's another one."

He takes a swig.

"Yeah, sure. If you're hungry. I think they've got bar food here." Wings, burgers. Stuff like that.

"I'm thinking more to stop old guys like you dying of alcohol poisoning," Chuck kicks at Yancy's seat and smirks.

And orders a plate of wings for them both.

[getcocky]

"I think by the end of the night, if I haven't knocked you off that bar stool it'll be a miracle."

But the wings are appreciated. He is kind of hungry.

"Aw, you like me really." Chuck ruffles Yancy's hair. "It's like having Raleigh home."

Wings are awesome.
