towerofanimus | To Drown Out

Characters: Enoch never intended it but, everyone who's up for drinking!
Setting: Cafeteria, throughout the day (sorry team indigo)
Format: Party, do what you want!
Summary: With Riki being generous with the food again, Enoch decides to see, first, if he can still get drunk at all, and second, if being drunk will help keep his new headmate quiet. A (not-so-) surprising amount of people are likely to be interested in drinking with him.
Warnings: Drunken shenanigans. Possible angst because he might actually talk about Eleven under the influence. Might also talk about gory details of the meeting with Ruana. Did I say drunken shenanigans? I think I need to say that again.

*Much like just before the glamour failure, Enoch sits with several bottles of red wine from the kitchen stock. Unlike then, he has no extra glasses out to share with. He is not drinking to a plunge into the unknown. He is drinking to drown things. Mostly, the voice screaming in his head.

But nothing really changes the fact that any modern wine is of much higher quality than anything his time could produce, and he's savoring its flavor too, in long sips. It's almost a distraction, itself.

Speaking of distractions, he certainly won't object to any company, and if it turns into a larger gathering he may get so caught up in it he'll forget how much he's had.

And so might you. Care to grab a drink for yourself? He won't mind if you ask for some of the wine he has.*

((ooc: Of course you can approach Enoch like any other log, but due to interest expressed this is actually more of a mingle! Start games and contests if you'd like or just hang out and have your characters get drunk or bodyguard or spectate. Please identify new games and contests in the header to make it clearer to people scrolling through! Naturally there can be several threads of the same game, considering this isn't organized at all.

Have fun, and do keep an eye out for monsters...))

[ Thankfully, Sertoria's been here for a bit after Doc's collapse. She's willing to take him to his room, but blinks when chaos and Richtofen are there, too. ]

...Ah, hello. I was about to take him back to his room. I tried to warn him about the alcohol, but it seems like he did not listen to me.

[ She pretends to cough, feeling slightly awkward all of a sudden. ]

I do not think I will need assistance, but we never know what lurks here, so if you want to accompany me to his room, I would not mind the help, chaos and sir I have not met yet.

[While chaos was a lot stronger than he looked and could move Doc into a piggybacking position easily enough, he smiled as Sertoria joined the two and nodded as he did move Doc to a piggyback position, holding the doctors legs with his arms and making sure the man did not tip backwards.]

It is alright. He probably wanted a drink as well, even if he could not handle it. I do not need any assistance, but you are welcome to follow me if you wish. And this person is Dr. Richtofen. He is the scientist on our collar fluid team. He may be a bit too fond of his work, but he is a good scientist.

[Richtofen raises an eyebrow and gives a smile that seems a little bit too giddy for the situation. Still, he sets his glass down and joins them.]

Too fond? Ahaha, oh, you flatter me.

[He raises a hand to give the gun strapped to his back a soft pat. Who brings weapons to a friendly drinking party, you ask? This guy.]

Since you two seem to have the moving part under control, I will guard you, ja? [He gives a nod to the girl.] Und it is nice to meet you, miss...?

[That's his way of asking for her name.]

[ Sertoria lets out a small pout, knowing she's more than physically capable of handling Doc's unconscious body. It may seem cute with the way she's protective over her friends, even when it comes to minuscule tasks like this. Still, she helps secure Doc to chaos' back and making sure that he's safe. ]

I cannot blame him if that was the case. Even if I cannot process nor taste alcohol, it seems like it is a reason to celebrate.

[ Her eyes take note of the gun, giving the weapon a nod. Then again, considering Sertoria's nature, she's a walking weapon herself. ]

I am Sertoria Cani, Doctor Richtofen! It is a pleasure to meet you. You may guard us if you wish.

[ Like that, she casually tosses a grin to chaos' way. ]

[The pout was cute, but chaos said nothing about it, simply smiling as she helped Doc stay put. Even though he didn't need the help, it was nice to have. chaos watched as Richtofen reacted to the 'compliment' and decided to let his reaction slide. He wasn't that surprised that this particular scientist was carrying around a gun, and not just because of how dangerous the Tower was.]

Drinking with friends, even if one cannot properly taste it, is usually fun for all involved. Thank you for your help, Richtofen. It is always nice to have some here.

[chaos would return the grin Sertoria threw at him before moving out of the cafeteria and onto the stairs.]

Und a pleasure to meet you, too. [He gives her a friendly nod.

When he turns to look at chaos, he can't help but bite back a giggle at the sight of the unconscious man on his back. He's never seen a person react so violently to alcohol. How positively intriguing (and by "intriguing," he of course means "hilarious and pathetic").]

Ah yes, drinking, very much fun. [He waves his hand at Doc, then looks back at Sertoria.] Until you end up like him. Do not worry, you're not missing much.

[With a laugh that sounds a touch more amused than it should, he follows chaos to the staircase.]
