"Heeeeeeeey..."

Robin's leaning on Tek's door, knocking to a beat. Not an even beat, either. A messy thing, indicative of his current state of mind. He's preeeeetty fucking drunk.

"Hey! You in there?"

Comments

[heresyandlace]

"Uh-oh."

He says it for himself, though it just might be said loud enough for whoever might be on the other side of the door to hear.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"Heeey." Slightly less elongated than the first time, but he makes up for it by sliding down the door and scrunching up in a happy little ball at the base.

"I'm drunk. Wanna go out?"

He presses his face against the door, since its suddenly the most comfortable thing in the immediate area.

[heresyandlace]

Well, there's no other sound from inside the room. He doesn't answer; maybe he went back to bed.

But, after a minute or two, the door just... opens. And there he is, peering down.

"...Hello there."

[birdsbirdsbirds]

As soon as there's nothing to keep him up, he falls right over. Rolls over, rather, and finds himself lying on the floor next to Tek's feet.

He looks at his feet, sprawled on his side, then then up at his face.

"Hello!"

[heresyandlace]

He picks up his foot so he can nudge at Robin's shoulder with the toe of his boot.

"You wanted to go out? ...Can you even stand?"

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"...Hm."

He wobbles his head up to look over at his own legs, as if he secretly doubts their integrity.

"Proooobably." He ends up stretching out anyway. "If I really try. I got it. But your carpet is really fucking comfy."

[heresyandlace]

Folding his arms, he leans in the doorway. At least the sneer he's sending down at him is a fond one.

"...You're staying right there, aren't you?"

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"Do you... want me to stay here?"

And at least the smirk on his face, however suggestive, manages to maintain a sort of innocent charm. Or just, you know. More drunkenness.

[heresyandlace]

It's a good thing that Tek is getting a kick out of this, and hasn't decided to be irrationally annoyed instead.

He makes a show of really looking at how Robin is laying, and where he's laying, and... just his overall state.

"...You are extremely inconvenient, you know that?"

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"You know..." He rolls over onto his stomach a bit, "I've gotten that. A bit. A lot! Kind of a popular opinion n' stuff."

He pushes himself up onto his arms and knees! He wobbles over onto the doorframe, but hey, he at least manages to pull himself up into a crouch.

"But I mean it, we could go somewhere or do something...? But only if you want! Because it's no fun if you aren't having fun--whoops."

He wobbles backwards, but his iron grip on the doorframe keeps him upright.

[heresyandlace]

He's still leaning right there in the doorway, but he's certainly not reaching out to steady him and risk going down with the ship. In fact, he even leans a back a little bit.

"I wonder how far you would make it." And, somehow, that makes him think of something.

"...So, if you're wanting to go out now, does that mean that you were just sitting around, all by yourself, and ended up this way?"

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"...Maaaaaaybe."

He pulls himself up to his feet. He's not so keen on leaving the doorframe, though. That thing is saving his ass right now.

"I wasn't in a mood to go anywhere until now. And here I am!"

So there. It's an accomplishment. And he thought of Tek first, how nice.

[heresyandlace]

He thinks about it, glancing back into his room for a minute like he's trying to decide if they should just stay in or...

Ah, no. A moment later, he's focusing on Robin again with a wider smile.

"Alright. Let's go. Anywhere you want."

This would be fun to watch.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

And, of course, his face lights up as soon as Tek says yes.

"Great!" He reaches forward, unbalanced (but miraculously stable), to grab Tek's hand and pull him out into the hallway.

"I was thinking about eating something..."

We'll see how long he makes it, walking a little sideways down the hall.

[heresyandlace]

He follows him out into the hall... but he doesn't bother to stop and grab his coat first. And he also takes a moment to rearrange their hands. He'll lightly hang onto Robin's arm instead, but in a way that he can easily detach if (when) he falls.

"Anything in mind? There's a really nice place I found recently, but it's kind of far..."

Just managing not to snicker to himself.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

He makes it several steps. Several fairly sizable steps! That is, of course, until Tek distracts him with other thoughts and one of his steps collapses down underneath him. He leans heavily into Tek before suddenly and ungracefully falling over onto the floor next to him.

"--Ow." Before he actually realizes his landing was kind of uncomfortable; that's canceled by a stupid laugh. "...I'm on the floor again."

[heresyandlace]

--Oh, and there he goes. He made even less progress than Tek had expected.

A hand floats out to catch himself on the wall when Robin leans on him, so he's left still nicely on his feet when Robin hits the floor.

"That was quick."

And, picking up right where he'd left off only a few steps ago, he just folds his arms and looks down at his fallen companion.

"...Do you want to go back now, or stay where you are?"

He might even help him up, if he decides that he wants to move.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

On his back now, looking perfectly happy with his predicament.

"Mmm..." He tries to think, putting honest effort into getting his brain to run through both of the ideas. Staying on the ground sounds pretty sweet...

"I'm pretty fuckin' comfy here..." That sounds like that might be his answer... before he suddenly realizes something, "But I'm gonna block the hallway, so I should go back!"

He tries to get up, holding up a hand--help him out, buddy.

[heresyandlace]

"You need a few lessons in efficiency, I think."

But it's said so good-naturedly. He's still finding this funny.

So, he'll be nice. There's no one watching, anyway.

Bracing one hand against the wall again, he makes sure his feet are planted solidly on the ground before he reaches down to help hoist Robin back up onto his legs.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"I don't need any affin--affencien--"

Broken off by a pointless noise as he's hoisted back onto his feet, as comical as you'd imagine. He stands perfectly still when he gets there, though it looks like that requires a great deal of concentration.

"Fuck you I'm fine. You said back, right?"

[heresyandlace]

"Unless there's anywhere else you think you can make it to."

He wouldn't mind another show, as long as he doesn't get dragged down too. Which, speaking of--he puts an arm around the back of Robin's shoulders before he can lose his balance and grab Tek's hand or anything, and he does so lightly.

Just going to gently start to guide him along and see how that goes.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"Well, thinking..." It takes him a ridiculously long time to come up with the word he's looking for, while being guided along. "--efficiently, if I didn't make it down the hall then I'm just gonna end up the carpet wherever we go anyway, and that--"

He suddenly points at Tek, getting just a little too close to his nose, "Isn't socially assept--whoa hey." He takes his hand back. "That was close. No more pointing."

[heresyandlace]

Yeah, the only thing that really saves Robin is the fact that he thought to catch himself before anything unfortunate happened. Tek's head darts snakishly backward, and his smirk evaporates for a look of warning... but he leaves it at that. For now. Yeah, watch yourself, buddy.

"...If you poke me in the eye, we're going to have a problem."

[birdsbirdsbirds]

"I'mmm not gonna poke you in the eye. Promise." Nodding, nodding. Then stopping. "As much as a really drunk person can promise. Because... uh, yeah. Drunk."

[heresyandlace]

When they reach his room--door still hanging open--he'll carefully shrug Robin away from his shoulder and prompt him forward. If the other is heading into the room first, he's less likely to be fallen on.

"Are you that drunk? I hadn't noticed."
