Scott downs another 3 double vodkas before Eric hugs him...taking him to 12 measures of vodka in the five minutes he's been here. As Eric hugs him he just sits still.
Scott :Eric....what's up?
He orders more vodka. |

Even though his mind is clouded, Eric is able to process that the hug made Scott feel awkward. Sitting next to him, he says;
Eric: Oh, y'know, the usual. I'm the worst person in the world, an absolutely terrible influence on everyone, so I'm going cold turkey next week to cleanse myself of every drug known to man. It'll probably kill me.
This is all said casually, due to the drinking having completely destroyed all nervous energy in his body for the night.
Eric: I'd ask how you're doing, but I already know. I'm so sorry about the break-up, man. If there's anything I can do to help, I'm here for you. |

Scott sighs.
Scott: Good for you man. You can help actually yeah. All those drugs you're coming off...if you happen to have any spare lying about, I'll gladly take it off your hands. Let's just say that I need to forget shit for a while.....perhaps curl up in some corner of some horribly decorated, paint peeling but still amazingly affluent room, and insert all manner of horrid chemicals into myself.
He downs his 3 vodkas. |

Raven almost wants to cry, but holds it back. Raven : She .... she left you!? But you two were good .... so sorry. Anything I can do, I'm here. Bikki's eyes open wide, and she takes two steps back from Scott. Bikki : No! No help him! He bad! Raven smiles, assuming she is talking about their past relationship. Raven : Water under the bridge, doll. We're friends. Bikki : He still bad. Very bad. I think - Gia very bad too, worse. Raven : You can say that all you want. |

Scott laughs.
Scott :Yeah...I thought so too. Guess we all thought wrong huh? Help? Do you have any drugs?
He orders 2 beers and hands one to Raven. |

Sighing guiltily at Scott's mention of drugs, as he believes the comment was directed towards himself, Eric pulls out two small bags of crack-cocaine and a tiny veil of Veritiserum. Not bothering to think about this being a bad idea, he says;Eric: Here, take 'em. I'm getting rid of the stuff anyways, as I'm trying to go clean, so it's all yours. These possessions are clear proof of just how off his head Quillington has become. Due to the fact that he is hyper-emotional from the booze, he is forced to suppress several audible sobs.Edited by user 15 September 2011 07:51:30(UTC)

Scott takes the drugs from Eric.
Scott: Thanks buddy. Helps us both out I think. You'll get clean, and I'll get...well dirty? Is that the right word? I dunno...I'm not big on drugs...but I reckon I need these.

She takes the beer. Raven : Thanks. I haven't done drugs for ages, unless you want female hormones and mood stabilisers. Anyway, drugs aren't the way out - I'd try to convince you, but .... I don't think I can. |

Scott finishes his beer and starts another. He fills up his bottle from the draught beer tap.
Scott: What is the other way out then? Convince me. |

Coming back from who knows where, Glamazon walks over to the bar, this time clutching a spiked baseball bat in one hand. |

Raven scratches her head, not entirely sure. Raven : Throwin' yourself into what y'all got, and that's a lot. Music. Friends. Everything that matters. That and - when you're ready to face up to Gia, when the deal's sealed, go for it. And I reckon it will be. It always is. Bikki : I "reckon" it's more than that. Raven : Even if it is, and it probably is, you shouldn't turn to shit that might kill y'all, Scott. |

Scott looks at Raven weirdly.
Scott: Face up to her? She's gone. How am I supposed to face up to her? You reckon what is more than what? |

Drunk and more than just a little depressed, Eric waves at Glamazon feebly, hoping this pathetic display won't ruin her opinion of him. |

Upon hearing how used to his non-soberity Glamazon is, Eric's depression deepens.
Eric: 'Again'. Yeah, kinda sorta. What's been up with you, though? |

Raven : Not now, but when you're ready, she'll be there .... Bikki : Did she choose to, or did she have to? Raven : Course she didn't have to dump him, Bikz. Though why she would .... Raven stops mid-sentence. Bikki pats her on the back.Bikki : He's a very bad person. Raven throws Bikki off her back, leaving her to black out on the floor. Thinking of Kestrel, she picks her up.Raven : Bikki!? BIKKI! She checks for a pulse, and can tell that she's safe, only drunk. Raven mops her brow and puts Bikki on a sofa seat.Edited by user 15 September 2011 08:25:29(UTC)

Raven shrugs. Raven : I dunno. Drunken empath, talkin' crazy. She knows every damn thing, but when she's drunk her head's messed up - she probably thinks I shouldn't talk to my exes or something, or maybe she's sayin' you're bad because you got a load of drugs - never mind her. |
