Marco quickly set up a couple of kegs at the ready for the drinking party. Because it was just plain necessary, and a lot like old times. The last two weeks were still weighing on Marco's mind. War, Peace, phoenixes. Was it a good idea to really enjoy war so much? Was it a bad one? Maybe it was inevitable, so he might as well enjoy it. Like life, right? Or should he not encourage it just because it was amusing?

It was too much of a headache, that's why he was just going to drink.

He also set up some non-alcoholic drinks for Leanne and everyone else. Green tea, fruit juices, but they were all clearly marked.

Marco gave a quick piercing whistle. "OI SPADES! Roll call and drinking games!"

And maybe drunk board games, he would blame that on Ace though.

"Hey! I'm not a kid!" Roxas pouted at him, tugging on his arm. "I'm not gonna be sick in the morning, why would I?"

"You remember the candy thing? This is gonna be a hundred times worse than that, especially if you keep it up. If you barf, either get outta the room or keep it on your side, okay?"

Lea was content to sacrifice his arm to the clinging, it wasn't like things were going to take a turn for the worse immediately. It would give him an excuse not to start drinking himself, too, which was good because the last thing he needed was to get dragged into some sort of drinking contest. He was no slouch at them, but he knew Roxas would try to tag along and give himself alcohol poisoning trying to keep up.

[heartismyown]

"Fine I won't drink anymore." After this last swallow. He put his cup down on the railing and wrapped his other arm around Lea, hugging him properly.

"You feel so good." He murmured a bit, nuzzling him again.

[by_heart]

These were the times when Lea was sure he had a heart because he could feel it stop dead and then start beating again. Roxas probably had NO IDEA what it sounded like he was saying, but how was anyone around them supposed to know that? Lea blushed as red as his hair and squirmed, trying to wriggle loose.

"You are seriously drunk, aren't you? C'mon, Roxas, get off."

[heartismyown]

"Huh?" Roxas gave him a bit of a sleepy look, but with all of his thrashing he was forced to let go. He stumbled a bit, unbalanced and leaned against the railing. "Drunk? If you mean all floaty, yep!"

He giggled a bit.

[by_heart]

"Yeah, that's called being drunk. Who's been giving you booze, anyway?"

Besides "everyone," which he totally expected to be the answer.

[heartismyown]

"Ummm...the guy with the soft yellow hair." Yep, that was about the level of description he could manage at the moment. He snuck his hand behind Lea and ran his fingers down his back.

"Lea I wanna hang onto you!"

[by_heart]

Lea made a strangled sound and nearly jumped out of his skin. So Roxas was a clingy, overly affectionate drunk. Great. And Lea was the type to get really dumb ideas that sounded brilliant to him at the time and/or start fights when he was drunk, so the two of them being drunk at the same time was probably a terrible idea. Also probably a terrible idea: letting Roxas keep being handsy.

"Why isn't holding onto my arm good enough anymore? I've got personal space, you know."

[heartismyown]

"Fine." Roxas sighed exasperated and hugged Lea's arm to his chest. Oh well, at least he could get away with hugging his arm even if Lea was being all weird about it. He didn't really know why that was but he couldn't really ask the question, his mind wasn't feeling much like working at the moment.

[by_heart]

Lea ruffled Roxas' hair in a bit of an apology. It wasn't like he didn't want him around, he just wanted his hands where he could see them at the moment.

"So what have you been up do besides letting Marco get you drunk?"

[heartismyown]

Roxas rocked back and forth. "Ummmm." He said, staring a little blankly.

"I don't know. I had the juice and then....oh the pineapple guy put me on his shoulders for awhile!"

[by_heart]

"Marco. The guy's name is Marco. You talk to him enough, so get it memorized already."

Despite his best efforts, he was beginning to think nothing short of nametags for everyone was going to get Roxas to learn anyone's name.

[heartismyown]

"Nah I don't, I only talked to him one time before tonight. He's really nice though!" Roxas giggled a bit and leaned his cheek against Lea's arm.

[by_heart]

Lea looked down at Roxas and frowned. Only one time? It had been how many months now and Marco still hadn't spilled about the whole bird thing? Well, that was going to be a disaster when it came out. Lea just hoped he didn't get caught in the crossfire for knowing about it and not saying anything. He knew better than to lie about it, too, because that would just make things even worse if Roxas caught him out on it. Roxas, for all that he was open and friendly, didn't trust easily. It was why Lea had kept so much about his own past to himself for so long, considering he wasn't exactly the most trustworthy guy in the world.

"You didn't think he was all that nice before."

[heartismyown]

"Yeah I know but he said it was okay when I said I was sorry for kicking things in his office and he helps Xifer with his letters and today he was being really nice and petting my hair. He's really strong too, because I was surprised when he put me on his shoulders." Roxas babbled a bit, nodding at himself because it had to be true.

[by_heart]

"Breathe, Roxas, geez, it's not like I'm going anywhere."

Lea elbowed Roxas to try to stop the endless jabbering. Sometimes he wondered if Roxas would remember things better if he took the time to actually process them instead of barreling headlong through things a mile a minute. He was much more sedate during their time in the Organization, so maybe he could chalk it up to the influence of the rest of the crew or maybe just being closer to Sora. It was hard to tell.

[heartismyown]

"I'm breathing!" He protested with a little giggle and nuzzled Lea's arm because that was all he would let him hold onto.

Roxas could be more sedate if he had to be but he got to have a lot of fun on the ship although drinking a ton of sugar got him riled up nicely on top of the alcohol. He had a way of not being terribly perceptive when things weren't deemed to be important.

"Do you like Marco?"

[by_heart]

"Ask me that again when I know the answer." Lea made a face. He wasn't too thrilled with any of the higher ranking members of the crew at the moment. He hadn't gone into detail when he'd spoken to Roxas about the whole mess surrounding the plans for the ball and now certainly wasn't the time to fill in the blanks, not with Roxas on cloud nine.

[heartismyown]

"Hmmm...okay." He hid some snickers against Lea's arm.

"Let's do something!" He tugged on his arm a bit. "You wanna drink some more? Or we could play something!" Because moving around while drunk seemed like a good idea.

[by_heart]

"No drinking, but you could talk me into a game." If he was going to drink at all, it would be after Roxas had crashed and he'd hauled him back to their room and made sure he wasn't going anywhere. Even then he wasn't sure if he would. He could get up to some pretty stupid things when he was drunk and now wasn't the best time to rid himself of his inhibitions.

[heartismyown]

"Okay! What kind of game do you want to play? Can you teach me a new one?" He bounced in place, tugging on Lea's arm.

[by_heart]

"It was your idea!" He should have seen that one coming. "What kind of game do you want to play?"

[heartismyown]

"Hmmm...I dunno." Roxas seemed to think about it for a moment and then tugged on his hand. "Wanna spar with me?"

[by_heart]

In the middle of the deck in the middle of a party where everyone is drinking. Brilliant idea, Roxas.

"No! Definitely no! I said 'game,' not 'way to sink the ship.'"

[heartismyown]

He looked around idly as he was trying to think, letting go of Lea's arm.

"I have games in our room..."

Roxas realized after a moment that he didn't have ahold of Lea anymore and he attempted to glomp him and wrap his arms around his middle. "Don't go anywhere though!"
