Warnings: Drinking, alcoholism, possible mention of death and car accidents

A | Local Bar

The neverending cycle of despair that was Celty’s life really seemed to be amping up in speed. What a fucking idiot she was. She told herself she wasn’t gonna get attached to people, keep things strictly business to move her way through the ranks and enjoy the splendors of fame and financial stability. And now here she was worrying about her band mates and friends and everyone else caught in this mess.

Today’s worrying of course leads to the bar. Not a place she would want someone as young as Kido being, even if she’s technically drinking legal. But she has to make sure she’s doing okay. Safe and as relatively sane. As sane as they can be in this mess.

B | Virgo HQ

There are no fucks to be given as Celty stumbles into the Virgo building. Some sense of sobriety keeps her from making an ass of herself in public. But once she’s back in Virgo all she can think about is that Blanche can eat a dick.

Which brings her to the exasperated security guard who can’t let her in until she gives him her pass.

“Liiisten, fuckface… You- you listen. You tell Blank. That he’s a loser, okay?”

“Yes ma’am.”

“He doesn’t know shit, okay? Shiiiiiiiiiiiiit. And there’s alllll kinds of dicks that he can choke on.”

“Yes ma’am. Could you jus-”

“Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicks.”

C | Vandalism in Progress Suite

With that delightful display finished, she finally manages to collapse onto the couch, thinking about ways she could trash talk Nyla’s cats. Those cats are garbage. Who gives a shit about those fuckers? Probably a bunch of mutated singing cats. Maybe even aliens.

Shit she hopes they aren’t aliens. She couldn’t deal with that shit.

Christ alive. She sits down next to Kido wearily.

It just builds up under the surface. Or worse.

I'd rather make sure you're safe myself if you're going to be drinking.

Unspoken "also don't drink" in there.

[blindfoldcode]

Kido's eyes flash red--this time in frustration more than anything--before her eyes dull, and she grimaces, holding her head.

"Can't read for a second. Hang on."

[losingherhead]

Oh shit.

"No, no, its fine. Don't overexert yourself."

[blindfoldcode]

"I'm used to it. It'll come back in a second." Just ignore her while she takes another drink. Her life is a mess.

"You don't have to talk."

[losingherhead]

"Its fine. Don't worry."

Still gonna take away your bottles though.

"You shouldn't. Have to be. Used to it."

[blindfoldcode]

"I know that. Why the hell do you think I'm here?" Connect the dots, man.

[losingherhead]

"Don't need this. For it."

Sobriety is great and doesn't have people yelling at guards.

[blindfoldcode]

"Alcohol is the least serious threat to my life right now, Celty. Chill."

Do not be Genos who knows no chill. Please chill.

[losingherhead]

"You'd be surprised."

Angst~

[blindfoldcode]

"My boss is on the verge of killing me. I'm pretty confident being drunk is lower on the danger scale."

[losingherhead]

"Don't give her an excuse."

More bottle stealing.

[blindfoldcode]

"I'll just buy more. You can't stop me."

Don't mom her in the middle of a bar omg.

[losingherhead]

"Wanna bet?"

She'll mom everywhere she damn pleases.

[blindfoldcode]

"I sure as hell do." Watch her drink more.

[losingherhead]

Watch her take the bottle from her hands.

[blindfoldcode]

"I will actually fight you, Celty. You're my friend, but I'll fight you."

[losingherhead]

"Got age and experience. On my side. Try me."

[blindfoldcode]

"When my vision is normal, meet me outside."

[losingherhead]

"Like I'm letting you drink in the meantime."

[blindfoldcode]

"Why are you so stuck on this?!"

[losingherhead]

"How dare I not want you spending time and money on something that destroys livers?"

It was easier to get out that whole sentence than she expected.

[blindfoldcode]

"You're gonna tear up your throat yelling at me."

[losingherhead]

"Better that. Than watching you stumble. God knows where."

Past Hypocrisy is fun.

[blindfoldcode]

She jerks a thumb at a nearby guard. "Like he'd let me anywhere except for HQ."

[losingherhead]

"Still."

Her trust in guard's having Kido's best interests in mind isn't exactly high.
