8th Combo - [Video]

[redcladidealist]

[There's a goofy grin on Lloyd's face when he turns the Dreamberry on. His cheeks are also slightly flushed - but maybe he's just happy?]

DAAAAAD! I found dragon juice! It's really, really good!

[The view shifts away suddenly, and for a moment there's only stone. Then it shifts again - wait. Is Lloyd climbing out of a window? Dressed only in pants and a black undershirt?]

I'm gonna find dragon berries an' bring some home! We can grow 'em everywhere!



[OOC: Backdated to just after this. Lloyd is very drunk!]

'Course I am. What kind of question is that? [Lloyd taps the Dreamberry's screen, then lifts his finger to make a point.] Everyone's gotta drink!

[uncute-one.livejournal.com]

While that might be true [hey, Jade's pretty fond of alcohol himself] there are, unfortunately, things known as laws.

Now, how old are you?

[redcladidealist]

'S not against the law to drink. [That makes no sense, Jade. Where'd you hear a srewy law like that?] You'd die if you didn't.

I'm seventeen~ [Said with all the pride of someone who just turned three.]

[uncute-one.livejournal.com]

It's against the law to drink if you're below eighteen, I believe. Which you are.

And I could be wrong, but you'll die faster if you drink too much rather than gain immortality.

[redcladidealist]

[Wooow. And people think he doesn't pay attention in school. This is even worse. This is something everyone should know.]

Didn' say it'd make you immortal. I said you'd die if you didn' drink. Milk or water or juice or somethin.' [He leans forward to scoff down at the screen, perhaps leans a bit too far. He ends up tilting against the side of the window frame.] Doesn't matter if you're eighteen. Tha's a stupid law.

[Dammit, Jade's actually less intelligent than Lloyd! Whudda thunk. ):

[Siiiiigh.]

I suppose one can't ever be too specific when talking to you. I was referring to the consumption of alcoholic beverages, not water, which is, indeed, necessarily for survival no matter your age.

[ARGH DON'T FAINT LLOYD IT'LL BE SUCH A HASSLE IF SOMEONE FINDS OUT JADE DIDN'T DO A THING TO HELP YOU.]

[redcladidealist]

[Poor Jade. And Lloyd is drunk now, too!]

[Lloyd actually manages to look offended at the suggestion.]

I don' drink alcohol. Dad says I'm too young an' it's bad for me.

[Okay, he's stable now, though he still needs the support of the window frame. But no, despite his protests, there's no mistaking that he's acting very drunk.]

All I had was Jungle Juice tha' had some dragon juice.

[uncute-one.livejournal.com]

Lloyd. Jungle juice is alcohol.

[redcladidealist]

No, it's not. It's juice. [Really, how hard is that to understand?] Or'nge an' pineapple an' dragon juice. Zelos told me, an' he made it, so he'd know.

[uncute-one.livejournal.com]

I see. I'll be having a word with Zelos later. In the meantime, can you tell me what exactly dragon juice is?

[redcladidealist]

[Good. Zelos can back him up and explain how the stuff he made isn't alcohol.]

Ih's juice made from dragon berries, an' it's what the dwarven heroes drink in all th' stories my dad told. They're berries that only grow aroun' dwarven mines, only dad thinks they're exta... exact... uh... [Damn it, what's the word? Everything in his head feels a little slippery right now. Eventually he gives up.] He thinks they're all gone. Bu' they're not! I'm gonna find some an' maybe dad can get them to grow!

[uncute-one.livejournal.com]

Extinct, Lloyd. 'All gone' means extinct. That aside, while these dragon berries may be real fruit, Jungle Juice is still mixed with alcohol.

Besides, do you really trust what Zelos says?

[redcladidealist]

It's juice. You can't call alcohol juice. Tha' doesn't make any sense.

He's my friend. I'd trus' him with my life.

[uncute-one.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, people tend not to make sense. It's a rather sad fact of life. In addition, words can be quite misleading. Catgut isn't made from cats, for one.

I'm quite surprised by your relationship, to be perfectly honest. You could stand to learn some wit from him.

[redcladidealist]

Ugh. I don't wanna hear you talking about gutting cats. [That's disgusting and despicable, Jade. B| ] If that's what you wanna talk about, I'm gonna turn this thing off.

[Click.]

[Sorry, Jade. Maybe you'll have more luck when Lloyd isn't drunk. >.>]
