Didn't get half as drunk as I should've got the other day, nooo. Faye was drunk the other day. Everyone was drunk the other day. Was like a... like a big party. 'Cept we all thought we were going to die. HAH HAH. That was a good joke, that. Really funny.

So I'm going to be inhe ine inebria not-sober today, instead. Because I'm an in-div-id-

Have some for me.

[kittyjones]

Having some for everyone, mate, don't worry.

Are you... I mean... how are you... you know? D'you need anythin'? I'll offer you some blood, but there's probably more vodka in me than the red stuff at the moment.

[dark_butler]

That might be the only way I'd have a chance of getting drunk, actually, which sounds better than almost anything right now.

But no, thank you. Greed "filled the tank" as it were, and Shizune left me with supplies, so I won't need to hunt for a while.

I'm as well as can be expected.

[kittyjones]

If the drink doesn't work for you, maybe you could find something else? Like... a tran tanrq tranquilliser or something?

You ever need it then... just ask, yeah? I don't mind, and it's not the alcohol talkin' when I say that.

I'm sorry. You didn't deserve... it shouldn't have happened to you.

[dark_butler]

So many people here are so generous with their offers. Do be careful whom you make that offer to. Blood = power for some.

I did deserve it. Maybe everyone he judges does.

[kittyjones]

Heh, don't worry, I don't make a habit of rushing around offering up my vital fluids to anybody who asks. But you're a friend. So I trust you. Right?

No, you didn't. Nobody deserves that.

[dark_butler]

...

Believe me when I tell you that I am undeserving of such trust.

I betrayed everything in my life. I earned the judgement.

[kittyjones]

It's called... oh, what's the damn phrase... yeah, blind faith. Everyone needs a bit of it sometimes. But with you it's not so blind, 'cos, I mean, you've never hurt me or mine. Only ever acted polite. Trust isn't something hardly anyone deserves anyway, but people still get it.

We've all done acts that could warrant punishment. But what that thing did wasn't judgement. It was... bloody, violent, gratuitous, none of it right.

[dark_butler]

Just... be careful whom you trust.

I was there for it. I know what it was.

[kittyjones]

Always am.

I didn't mean... I still hold that you didn't deserve that.

[dark_butler]

Why are you drinking? For fun or forgetfulness?

[kittyjones]

...It's fun to forget. So both!

[dark_butler]

Fair enough.

Have another one for me.

[kittyjones]

I will! What should yours be for? Fun or forgetting?

[dark_butler]

Yes.
