[ It looks as though Ukitake has finally decided to join us, today! The Forge sits atop a desk a fair distance away, capturing much of the darkened room within its lens, and a great deal less of the man himself. Intentional? Of course. No one wants to glimpse at those hideous, hideous panda eyes of his, now do they? ]I was wondering if, perhaps,

I've never had a 'hangover' before...
[ it seems painful! there's a wince of sympathy from her side. ]
Sorry.

Still, though, there's a faint smile playing upon his lips, just for her. ]
You needn't apologize, Hinamori-chan. This is a mess of my own making, after all.

[ so worried ;; ]
but I didn't.

It was my choice alone and no other's. And, truth to be told, I... do not think I would have been able to heed your words and stop, had it come down to that.
[ A sigh. ]
We all have our moments of weakness.

[He did say any and all. And she has a little ...experience with this. But before she offers it up, she'll ask.]

Of course, Iolanthe-san.
[ Are you going to give him reason not to be? ]

You could take matters into your own hands, so to speak, [:D] but I find it much more enticing with a willing ...friend. Why should you have to do all the work when you're in such an unfortunate state? [Or any of the work, really? Tch.]
Nimble fingers, persistent lips, whatever else you like - it doesn't really matter how as long as you get your release.
[Coy smile. She is trying to be ...not vulgar. So focused on editing her language, she forgot to switch it to private. WHAT. SHE HAS LEARNED A LOT OF AWESOME PHRASES IN ANATOLE. It's a shame she cant unleash some of them now. But she's not trying to troll, this is actually an attempt at being helpful.]
Oh, it won't fade completely, but so far it's worked for me~

A-ah. [ A dry swallow. ] I'm glad you've managed to happen upon a remedy so tailor-made to your needs. There is something to be said for enjoyable distractions, I think.

Renji is amused, but he's felt your pain multiple times, so he speaks quietly so as not to make things worse.]
Looks like you hit a lot of the big suggestions. Been drinkin' lots of water?
[Renji pauses for a second, trying to wrack his brain for anything else.
...Lightbulb!]
Got any umeboshi?

[ That whispering. Ukitake appreciates it so, so, so very much. And the suggestion, as well. Even if Renji is a total sadist and enjoys seeing the Seireitei's authority in excruciating agony. ]
Umeboshi? [ Chin tap. ] Ah, I believe so, however...
[ To obtain it means venturing outside of his dimly lit paradise. ]
Does its use have merit?
[ AKA: is it worth getting up for? Please say yes. :( ]

Uhhh. I've heard some people use it and they haven't died, yet.
[This is encouraging, really.]
I jus' know I usually have to tough it out.
Reply
And if I may trouble you with an inquiry-
Based on your past experience, and likely a bit of estimation, as well... approximately how long would it take to tough out a four day [ drinking binge ] 'excursion'?
[ Ukitake sounds hopeful. Or rather, as hopeful as one can be, in his current state. ]

First, protein. Walnuts, eggs, meat. Depending. Next, something salty, but not too salty. Oh! Ginger beer! And a shock!
Or maybe that's for cyanide?
Reply
I should sincerely hope that cyanide and alcohol poisoning will never cross paths, where I am concerned. Or where anyone else is concerned, for that matter.
[ Normally, he would offer a good-natured chuckle, but after how his first attempt panned out... ]
Salty, I have covered. Protein... not quite yet. And I don't think I've ever heard of ginger beer.
