Notes: Fair puns are awesome. I love puns; it's an unfortunate affliction, but I embrace it.
“It’s not a fair world, yo,” Reno said as he nursed his drink.
Zack shrugged, downing his shot. “Not yet, buddy,” he said conspiringly, putting his arm around Reno’s shoulder. “It will be someday, though.”
Reno downed the rest of his bottle of beer before shooting an incredulous look at Zack. “You’re too optimistic,” Reno muttered, not quite drunk yet but too far gone to move Zack’s arm away.
Zack crinkled his nose before pulling Reno into a headlock. “I’m not optimistic! I will own the world someday!” Zack announced, sounding a bit drunk with a small slur at the end of his exclamation.

“You did!”
Reno pushed away from Zack, almost falling off his stool. “Did not!”
“You did! A Fair world!” Zack said with a grin. “And I’m Fair.”
Reno shook his head. “Ugh, man, your logic is even more screwy when you’re drunk,” he muttered as he pulled off his goggles, that had seemed to be tight with all the alcohol going to his head.
Zack planted a kiss on Reno’s cheek. “Aw, you know you’d love a Fair world!” Zack exclaimed, giggling a bit.

Zack shrugged. “All’s Fai-”

“Aw, that’s not Fair...”
