[oh - that's a little embarrassing to him but, he keeps his cool for the most part. he smiles and then moves to stand, offering his elbow out to her like a proper gentleman]
Then let's get going.
I think tomorrow'll be busy so... best to recover as much as we can.
Ah, that's okay... It's really not something you need to apologize for.
[he feels a little sheepish]
I just get worried when I think people are drinking alone... You can always text me if you need a buddy - but I know you had Ming Yi-san, so it wasn't anything to worry about.
Ahaha, he knows me well. As soon as that wore off, he took me straight to the alcohol. [...] But I'd like to drink with you sometime, too. That would be nice.

I'm glad you promised. Let's make do with some tea.

[when he just??? wandered into her drinking with ming yi?????]
no subject
Ahaha, I'm alright. I can barely remember what happened after we ate that cake! ...which was sort of the point!

Maybe this Sunday. I can kick my feet up a little - I don't drink much though, so you'll have to be careful with me. I get a little... uh. Much.
[announcing his virginity at never have i ever....]
But don't feel too embarrassed.... We all got pretty - uh, wrecked on Wednesday. By ourselves....
[now THAT'S what i call hubris]

[if they manage to coordinate a no-vote, maybe they won't have to execute anyone! they can just drink!!
tomorrow probably won't be that simple but we'll see.]
...however... ah, much, you are when you've been drinking, I'm sure it can't be much worse than we were on Wednesday. It'll be fine!
no subject
Yeah.
I wonder if the cake came from - someone? If that was a sign from the deceased...?
no subject
[...]
Although... I'm not sure what that was meant to convey.
