audio; 4/6 late night / early morning ish

[thxforthememories]

[It's probably around midnight or so when the post pops up. Or close enough to it that the effects of the red energon have finally worn off. He can touch things now. He's no longer a ghost.]

[And... still considerably unsettled and upset by recent events. Enough to make the following statement:]

I ... I want to learn how to be drunk.

[Because that seems like a great idea. It always worked for his role models around here, after all.]

Someone. Show me how. I'll be grateful.

[And that's all he says. He'll be at the bar, an unhappy pile of metal and wings. Waiting.]

I've never done... quest before. A quest. What's a "dude"?

[Well they programmed dog instincts into Shadowmaru so go figure.]

I'm. What?

[badboybikerbot]

Dude's a guy. [yeah real informative]]

[One of Gunmax's other life goals is to get Shadowmaru to chase his tail]

Chirping. Making bird noises.

[thxforthememories]

Oh. Then I'm a dude. And so are you.

[We're all dudes here.]

I don't. Think I was?

[badboybikerbot]

Yeah dude! We're dudes, dude.

[was gunmax going insane he was sure there was noise]

You totally made a noise.

[thxforthememories]

Dude. I got it.

[He grumbles something, and peers up at him, because somewhere along the lines, he was bent over to mash his face into that shoulder.]

Okay. I'm okay with that.

[badboybikerbot]

Okay with being a dude or okay with making a noise?

[thxforthememories]

...






Both.

[badboybikerbot]

Good, that makes it less complicated.

[thxforthememories]

Yes. It does.

Does that mean I helped?

[badboybikerbot]

Uh. I think it does.

[he isn't sure with WHAT but hey]

[thxforthememories]

Okay. Good.

[badboybikerbot]

Anyway. Let's go do that sleep. Thing.

[thxforthememories]

Yes.

Let's sleep.

Together.

[badboybikerbot]

Ye-

[uh]

Yeah but. Separately.

[thxforthememories]

Oh.

Right. Separate. That's best.

[badboybikerbot]

Yeah. Because otherwise it might be weird.

[thxforthememories]

Might be weird. Yes.

[badboybikerbot]

Super weird.

Okay, less talk. More sleep.

[come on dumbass lets stop standing in the hall like a couple of shmucks]

[thxforthememories]

Okay. This way.

[He thinks anyway, he's just walking in a random direction.]

[badboybikerbot]

[Gunmax makes some kinda mumbly gurgle noise and follows. HE DRUNK TRUSTS YOU KAGEROU DON'T DRUNK LEAD HIM SOMEWHERE STUPID]

[thxforthememories]

[Watch him lead them to a broom closet or something.]

[badboybikerbot]

[GOOD ENOUGH]

[thxforthememories]

[And that's the story of how Gunmax and Kagerou woke up hungover in a broom closet the next day.]

[badboybikerbot]

[let us never speak of this to anyone]

[thxforthememories]

[Even Kay.]
