"Uh," Said Jerry, his face quite red at that point as he blinked at Harrison. His eyes darted to Dakota's rather impressive stash of booze.
How many months had it been.
He had lost count.
They days blurred.
They weren't on a mission, everyone was doing it. It was okay, right?
"I ah..." He floated toward it like a hummingbird nervously examining a rather colorful and aromic flower. "M-maybe just... just a small one..."

Rep was still staring. He opened his mouth to speak a few times but no words came out, he wasn't even sure what to say given the situation.
He covered his mouth in a stifled guffaw as Jerry got greeted and burned in a single breath. "Ace. Are you awright man?" he asked cautiously, as if Harrison might combust any moment. "You are being...talky."

Nevada was just staring too, but since she didn't know Harrison, she didn't know that he wasn't chatty.
Instead she leaned closer to him.
"Did you drink before you came here hun? Or did someone give you something?" like drugs?
DID SOMEONE GIVE SOMEONE DRUGS?

That was roughly the response Mimsy had been expecting, but not the one she wanted to hear. Her throat felt tight and she tried to remember to breathe, and instinctively she took another large sip of the drink in her hand because it looked very much like water.
It still wasn't water.
With a cough, she passed the cup back to Lucky and stood up, an accusatory finger pointed in Dakota's direction.
"I have told you, told you repeatedly..." The dizziness was coming on strong and she couldn't stand up straight, so instead of poking her finger towards him, she fell forward, bracing herself against him. "I am not going to sleep with you and...but you brought me here, and..."
This was what drinking felt like? Why did people do this?!

"You get used to," he offered weakly, taking the cup back from Mimsy lightly. He finished what was left and set it down by his feet. The effects hadn't set in for him nearly as fast, not with his vodka-pickled Polish liver. "Is not for taste, though. Heh."
He followed everyone else's attention to the lightweight, and almost felt sorry for him. Poor guy needed to stick to beer or something. Or water. Haha.
"Actually, is good that ve both here. Vas going to ask you about-" He reached into his pocket again to procure what he was going to show Mimsy.
It wasn't there.
"Oh," Lucky muttered quietly, patting down his pockets. "Oh no."

"Yeah, real talky. I don't think I am alright. It's weird. ...You're better than alright, though. Like really ******** attractive. All the time, it's like, a halo of ******** amazingness, and you're such a great guy too. I want to make out. ...Okay, but I didn't want to announce it. s**t, I just can't stop."
Harrison looked at Nevada with increasing distress and despair.
"This is the first drop of alcohol I've had all day. In a while, even. He-"
Harrison looked momentarily like he was being strangled, then dropped his head in his arms, trying to stifle the next sentence.
"He gave me something and told me to hide it. Jewelry. I don't know what for. He probably stole it. s**t Rep, I'm real sorry, does anyone have a sock I can put in my ******** mouth."

Rep couldn't help but look very deer in the headlights at the slew of commentary from Harrison, completely immobilised at the very idea of him saying all these things without even the slightest attempt at a filter. He covered his mouth with a hand but he didn't even want to say anything in case it sparked more.
His shock condensed into scandal again though as Harrison completely grassed him up to the room at large. Betrayed over a ******** ring. "Oh well I know who not to bring s**t to in future."

Jerry glanced up from where he was helping himself to something with a rather impressive proof, mixing it with whatever soda he could find in case Simon decided to walk by. Was Harrison having a break down?
"Have another drink," He suggested, after a slow, reverent sip of his own. "It usually helps,"

"Sock in the mouth?" Melvin was standing at the door frame, looking at Harrison near Rep, and then at the booze. "Don't you think you should take that to your room?"

Nevada's eyes widened as Harrison went on, and then she tried really hard to stifle a laugh because god, this poor man was trying so hard. It was like Liar Liar movie with Jim carrey. And Harrison was Jim carrey.
"He...Um...He gave you a ring?" She looked over at Rep now. Did that mean he found in the host's dorm and was planning on taking it? That kinda of seemed..."Oh well...." Now Nevada couldn't say much because Harrison was confirming...
And while Nevada was contemplating why a ring would matter...
Dakota was being mauled by Mimsy. But not really.
"Whoa...Mimsy, I didn't have ANY intention of sleeping with you but if you want I am still down but that was NOT my intention tonight. Just wanted you to come out and have fun with us!" He wrapped his arm around her waist to balance her and sighed. "I don't take advantage of girls that say no. I'm just a more of touchy feely friend. Sorry."
Okay that being said, he looked over to Harrison and cocked his head. "Not a ring of mine, so it's not stolen from me." But he was judging you Rep. Judging hard. Go drink your free booze you ring stealing free boozer.
"But if Harrison is all about truth things, Ask him a ridiculous question. Harrison, do you like unicorns?"

"It's a party!" Jerry beamed at Melvin with a cheery wave that got a bit of rum and coke on Dakota's carpet.

"I didn't want to say that. I don't have any better ideas," Harrison lamented, and took a drink.
It didn't help.
"I don't think it's helping," he said. "Of course I like unicorns, they're badass. They're like stallions with swords on their head. Killer's got a huge win streak in the Battledome, him and me have mauled probably over 500 weakass nightmare pets. And ******** you Melvin, I wasn't asking for a ballgag. I've never even done that s**t okay. Although I guess if the guys wanted to we could talk about it. Except not because I guess that's the point. I'd just like to stop talking."
Harrison had put his head back in his hands and kept it there.

He managed to wait exactly ten seconds before he bolted out of his chair.
"Can ve have second? Thanks," Lucky's words formed one single monotonous sentence as he crossed the gap to Dakota, pried Mimsy out of his grip, and dragged her to an unoccupied corner of the room.
"Ve. Have. Problem," he admitted to Mimsy in a low voice, looking around shifty-eyed. We, because any problem of his was inevitably going to be her problem too.

"I can see that, Jerry." Melvin said, not sure if Jerry had a memory gap in the fact that the Sun jumped out of a window last he saw him.
Melvin didn't chat with Harrison much. They did Infirmary work and Melvin went out to the training fields to watch and learn from Harrison while he did his Moon duties. Despite that time, he knew Harrison wasn't gabby, or he and Melvin weren't close enough to share that level of intimate information.
For someone who was always asking questions and dined on truths like deserts with whip cream, alarms were going off in the Lifer's mind. Great, sparkling alarms that said Christmas might be happening in some weird way. Something was up, but whatever it was, it was strangely awesome.
Stepping in, albeit stiffly as Melvin was still recovering and bandaged about his midsection under his sweater, he looked at Harrison. "You can't stop talking?" He asked, and couldn't hide the smile. "Why can't you shut up? What's going on?" He looked to everyone.

Every time he opened his mouth. EVERY TIME.
He couldn't even believe the comment about ballgags. Something was completely awry, but. He wasn't lying. He wasn't being evasive. It was like someone had slipped him truth serum because no ******** way, even on pain of death would Harrison ever ever talk about stuff he was into.
"Normally a ball gag would be redundant." Rep said incredulously. He wished he had one right now though, he was tempted to cover Harrison's mouth just on ******** principle. But still. Everyone else was asking questions.
He set his mouth in a grim line and propped his chin on a hand. He didn't care if he looked like a psychotic obsessive boyfriend. He was one.
"Do you really love me? Not eyed up other people or thought other people'd be better? Did you settle for me?"
