leave me alone, I'm lonely [text - cw: talk of underage drinking.]

[awooligan]

I guess announcing this sort of thing is what you do on here, so
Héctor Rivera-Adlantis and Neko Adobephotoshop aren't here anymore
Yes I know it's Adomaitis and Nekane, I don't care

[But he'll still make it clear who they are, and stuff. Something something jerk was married to a forgotten guy, being remembered is basic decency or something.]

What I care about is that this means someone else has gotta step up and buy my booze for me
Preferably without the lecture

[necromanswers]

Come to the cafe and buy your own booze like a big boy.

Sorry to hear that, though. They seemed like nice kids.

[awooligan]

"Kids"
Okay

You're not going to use this for an intervention or something are you? Because that's entrapment I think

[necromanswers]

Don't get weird about semantics, once you reach a certain age it's a safe go-to.

My dude as long as you're like, 4 feet or up and don't puke in my place, your habits are up to you. I'm not your mom.

[awooligan]

That's a good deal so I won't even argue the kid thing anymore

[astralera]

Thank you for the notice. It is a relief to hear that neither was left without the other.

[ She remembers discussing that very thing with Héctor when they first met, and knowing he won't have to suffer without Nekane is gladdening. ]

Why would you need someone to buy it for you? Just buy it yourself.

[awooligan]

No kidding
They would have been insufferable

[Or, you know, deeply traumatized and have a mental breakdown, maybe burn the city down in angry grief. Whatever.]

Didn't realize this place didn't give a shit about laws

[astralera]

Considering Héctor and I did discuss the possibility before, 'insufferable' is certainly one way to describe it.

Havenwell does have laws they enforce, though laws differ regionally no matter where you go. The only real consistencies I've seen or heard in all of my travels have been no murder, no theft, no trafficking of persons, and no sedition.

Nothing at all pertaining to alcohol.

[awooligan]

Great, so we agree and don't have to talk about it anymore

[None of anyone's business!!]

What's sedition?

[astralera]

Conduct or speech that incites rebellion or insurrection against the established governing authority.

A particular talent of mine, according to the tales.

[awooligan]

Well authority sucks, did they ever think about that? I'll rebel if I want to

You're a nerd though, shouldn't you be into that?

[astralera]

Into what?

[awooligan]

Sucking up to nerdy government authorities

[astralera]

No.

I have played a key role in dismantling two governments, and liberating three nations from imperial subjugation.

I exist to protect the people, not their governing bodies.

I would much rather be adventuring & helping people than being forced to sit in on meetings I've no qualifications for.

You can't just tell a nation's leader they're being a fucking psychopath, you have to be all politically correct about it. You also can't just kill the Emperor during a parley even if he's right there and talking shite and you really want to.

I'm the one you point at something and tell to fight it. All the low-IQ high-effort stuff best suited to me.


I also make sweet fruit wine if you want a bottle. The only stipulation is that you remember to hydrate between glasses.

[daikonrose]

[ Oh... oh. There's a lot here, but-- ]

Thank you for saying it. I didn't know.

[awooligan]

[That looks like a whole lot of nerd words he doesn't want to read for a while, and then he forgets for another while after that. But hey! He's back!]

Yeah I forgot that you have zero patience
My bad

That sounds like something that could become a lecture really quick, but if that's the end of it I'll let it slide

[Like, he won't do that, but he'll say he will and pretend.]

Sounds good to me

[text]

[awooligan]

Yeah, I figured I was probably the first to notice

[Both because Héctor is his friend and because his scent was faint at best. That's a weird thing to bring up, though.]

Just wanted to let anyone who cared know
It's not a big deal

[astralera]

If I had no patience I wouldn't have wasted my time typing that.

What's there to lecture about? It's alcohol, not taboo magicks. Keeping hydrated prevents hangovers and you're bitchy enough without one.

[awooligan]

Damn, girl

[A fair assessment and all, but still.]

Some people get bitchy during the drinking part
Or make dumbass decisions
Or they ruin their lives by becoming alcoholics
I just think it's fun

[astralera]

Am I wrong?


Last time I drank I created an eldritch form for Carbuncle and stole all my boyfriend's blankets while he was napping.

A potentially life-ruining act, but fortunately he was too lazy to get mad lol

[daikonrose]

I appreciate it very much.

[ She doesn't know too much about what Héctor and Cliff's relationship was like, but nobody tries this loudly to act like they don't care when they're actually unaffected, especially not surly teenagers. ]

I'm guessing you're busy tonight, but if you have time later, would you mind bringing some of that masa flour and piloncillo over?

[iustaegis]

I'll miss them. Wherever they are now, I hope they're together and happy.

Will you be okay?

[shroudedsecrets]

I see.

you care enough to inform others... so thank you for that.

[awooligan]

I'm a teenager so I'm allowed

[Meanwhile, he doesn't know how to process Era saying "lol".]

Isn't carbuncle just you
Are you eldritch on alcohol

[awooligan]

[He sees what you're doing and he doesn't like it!! But continue, please.]

Why would I be busy tonight?
I can bring it whenever

[awooligan]

[makes a face behind screen because he still doesn't really know exactly how he feels about the marriage thing, like good for them coping and learning to trust, but also no? bad? héctor and imelda are together in his universe, and everything is confusing.]

Yeah, it's fine
Glad I don't have to deal with one without the other
Didn't realize they were so popular though
