Ambrosio laughed right along with his big blue friend and turned to join him, back towards the party. But he did try to keep just out of reach from one of those bear hugs: Azure was pretty drunk already, and a pretty big lion. Ambrosio may be somewhat unsteady himself, but he wasn't fuzzy enough to risk getting squished by an overenthusiastic hug. At least not while there was still so much partying left to do.
