19 - Bandido

[radiantwingedone]

Who: Duke, Yuri.
When: Friday evening
What: Duke's finally gotten out of Ordo after sunday
Where: Plaza area
[ Style ]

[ It hadn't really been sneaking out, but Duke hadn't really told anyone in the house where he'd gone anyway.

He just kinda wanted to be outside for a while, so he's out by the coral and .... blankly study the bubble and everything about.

Duke may seem down, which isn't particularly unusual, but he may seem... more down than usual. Guess who didn't really overcome that curse? ]

[hopeofzaphias]

... so, what do you say?

[ Because obviously Yuri can't be tamed, bro. Also apparently sharing drinks is one good way to start patching things up, in Yuri's opinion... ]

[radiantwingedone]

.... Stop if start sparking.

[ Magic. It and drinking don't go well. He'll try to remember to turn off all his little-spells first.

If you're too drunk to stop him, there might not be a bar. ]

[hopeofzaphias]

Got it. I'll knock you out first before that happens.

[ He may or may not be joking about that, Duke.

But in any case. Drunken antics. They will be a thing. ]

ARE WE GOING TO CONTINUE HERE OR DOES Yuri want to have drunk-Duke later

[radiantwingedone]

[ Yes but Duke needs to know two things first. ]

... Now? [ This makes the second thing either important or not important. ]

Up to you, bro. XDDDD

[hopeofzaphias]

... now.

[ Why do you ask, Duke... :| ]

OKAY THIS CAN BE HORRIBLE

[radiantwingedone]

.... then where?

[ Because he's confused. ]

WHOOOOO \o/

[hopeofzaphias]

There's a tavern in the plaza I frequent. We'll go there.

[ Does that help... ]

[radiantwingedone]

hmn.

[ He has a place to go to now? Plaza-

Wait aren't they already there-

Just.. looking at storefronts now. ]

[hopeofzaphias]

... and we're already here.

[ GJ, Yuri, just go ahead and facepalm at yourself, please ]

... well, at least that makes it easier.

[ Heading off in the direction of a nearby building where's there's a lot of noise and chatter going on. Follow? ]

[radiantwingedone]

[ Follow!

Although if he had mood-ears they would have flattened due to the noise and chatter.

... second thoughts? ]

[hopeofzaphias]

[ too late to go back, bro

They're already at the bar with two glasses of liquor in front of them, and Yuri's gulping down his

what do ]

[radiantwingedone]

[ Pretend everything is fine with that blank expression and just taking a drink? Obviously.



Except that burned more than he remembered. Give him a moment of trying to prevent a coughing fit.

He hasn't drank any alcohol in some time, did Yuri get that feeling? ]

[hopeofzaphias]

Whoa, you okay?

[ Yuri motions for a glass of water and hands it to Duke for him to drink; well, he didn't realize it was that bad until now.

welp. second thoughts now... ]

[radiantwingedone]

Does... not match memory.

[ Granted he probably didn't have basic stuff. It might have been fancy noble alcohol of the probably wine sort.

He'll drink the water somewhat slowly and study the other drink.

... second time won't burn as much, right? ]

[hopeofzaphias]

... probably. This is more different than the usual stuff back home.

[ At least in name, anyway. Doesn't stop Yuri from gulping down another shot. ]

[radiantwingedone]

Hmn.

[ And Duke didn't usually go near humans 'back home', which could explain.. part of why he is looking like he's finding this to be quite a bit burning.

After a moment he focuses and drops all his little spells. Almost forgot that.

But then he's back to making it through that first drink without coughing from burn- ]

[hopeofzaphias]

[ Okay Duke.

Yuri pauses for a few moments, watching to make sure that Duke doesn't have another adverse reaction before drinking again himself.

... yep, this is gonna be an interesting night. XD; ]

[radiantwingedone]

[ He expects it to burn now! So he's being careful.

Although with perhaps less drinks than Yuri expects, Duke is going to end up leaning on him.

He hasn't.. been eating that well, recently... So its easier. Okay? Okay. ]

[hopeofzaphias]

[ ... wow Duke :|

Yuri blinks, looking at Duke with a surprised expression. ]

Lush already?

[radiantwingedone]

I do not recognize that word. But if you mean that things are moving and I cannot tell if they are supposed to be moving, or if it is a good or bad thing... Yes.

[ Only mumbled. ]

[hopeofzaphias]

... ah.

[ That fast, huh? Well, this was... gonna be a long night. ]

Just close your eyes, it'll help. I think.

[ ... you think? ]

[radiantwingedone]

.... ?

[ But Duke won't be able to see the drink then.

He's going to figure it out, Yuri.

And then eventually he'll be dizzy enough that closing his eyes doesn't work out and he falls over. Because dizzy and not being able to see what direction he is in does not help things.

He looks a little bit stunned, from the floor. ]

[hopeofzaphias]

W-whoa. You... you okay?

[ Wow, that looked like it might've stung-ish. Yuri manages to get off his own stool to help Duke up with a grimace. ]

THERE WE GO lets use this icon

[radiantwingedone]

Was moving but fuzzy moving and couldn't follow moving so moved and...

[ A limp arm wave.

Congrats, Duke is... not going to be able to find his own way home. ]

You smell like metal.

asdgaskjhdaslkdhasklh MOE DUKE

[hopeofzaphias]

... I what now?

[ Blink. Ohgod are you drunk already. ]

... I don't smell anything.
