[ Yes, something. ]

Ion, I think you're drunk.

1/ idk hold plz

[distressedude]

Drunk?

[distressedude]

That's ridiculous, Kohan. I can't be drunk, I've never had any--

[distressedude]

[Wait a minute.]

[The dots are starting to connect here.]

[distressedude]

[Dear Lorelei, the eggnog.]

/END

[distressedude]

You're right!

[He says, resting both hands on the table now leaning up on them... and then swaying a bit and falling back down into his chair.]

No wonder you thought I was acting weird. I am weird! [...] A-Acting weird, that is.

[personafalsify]

Let's... get you home. You should probably sleep this off. And... I should too. I don't know how strong my drink was, either.

[ He's already starting to feel a little... fuzzy. ]

[distressedude]

W-What? No, I can't go home! [Now look at how distressed he is, gosh!]

I don't want the others to see me like this. Anise would be mad at me for drinking something without thinking, and Nephry would... [Be disappointed? He's actually not sure if there would be any negative impact on the others seeing him like this. But at the same time, he just really really really doesn't want any of them to find out.]

I just... need to wait it out, right? Since it wears off eventually. I think.

[personafalsify]

Well--... I guess, but they might come in here, too. It's not like drinks in Luceti are usually dangerous or anything... it was just a mistake, right?

[distressedude]

[He doesn't seem to register that last part -- what did it matter? Mistake or not, he was still careless!]

Then... then maybe I should go somewhere else? A walk outside might clear my head maybe...

[You know, walking alone in the snow while intoxicated when his health is already poor on a good day.]

[BEST IDEA RIGHT?]

[personafalsify]

I don't think outside's... look, it's pretty cold out. If you're not going anywhere, it's better to stay indoors.

[distressedude]

But where else could I go? I'm not sure where the others might be today, and if staying here isn't safe...

[Of course, there is one place he could stay.]

[And while he hasn't said it, he's most certainly thinking it.]

[personafalsify]

[ KOHAN IS TOO. AND WE ARE AVOIDING THERE TOO YES maybe... ]

We can just... stay here. It's not that bad...

[ And he takes a sip of the last of his eggnog... only to realize whoops, he was going to stop drinking that. ]

[distressedude]

But if someone comes and sees me here...

[You know what? He's drunk. What is tact right now.]

...maybe I could wait it out at your house? You said you needed to go sleep it off too, right?

[personafalsify]

[ ... Must not slam head down on table. COMPOSURE, Kohan. Composure. ]

I... [ ... sob. ] guess we could, if you really don't want to go home. Wouldn't your housemates worry?

[distressedude]

...how long is this supposed to take?

[Because clearly a short nap would clear it up, right? : D]

[personafalsify]

I don't know for sure... overnight?

[distressedude]

That long!?

[Overreaction is go!! Though now he's looking even more troubled. That means he couldn't just walk around and hope to sober up, huh?]

I suppose... maybe I could leave a message for them not to expect me home tonight? I'm not sure what else I can do...

[personafalsify]

[ Sob, bro, don't do this to him.

... Okay it's not like they don't have empty rooms so. Just. Need this to not be a repeat of last time Ion happened to come over, and we'll be good. ]

Can you do that? I mean, there are some extra rooms at my place...

[distressedude]

Yes, I'm sure! I just need to be able to write steady enough, right? [...]

Or maybe I'll write to them a little later. [Good plan, Ion. Good plan.] Everything feels a little fuzzy right now...

[personafalsify]

[ That's how he feels. Oh, dear. ]

But what if you forget?

[distressedude]

I won't! I'd never forget something like that. I wouldn't want to let Nephry think something happened to me... like getting kidnapped. That happens to me a lot.

[personafalsify]

You... [ /defeated ] alright. Then let's get to 39.

[ ... ]

Unless you're still eating.

[distressedude]

[...]

[And then he oh-so-stealthily covers his plate with a napkin. At least he ate about half of them!]

I'm done now. Let's go!

[personafalsify]

[ ... :|

Sigh. ]

Sure, whatever. Let's go, then.

[ And we will be standing up and heading towards the door AND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE IS GOING TO GO WRONG TODAY, CORRECT? ]
