Uh-uh. I'm cutting you off, remember? [ Yup, even Drunk Bradbury is annoyingly responsible. He pushes the bottle a little further out of her arm's reach. ]
[The noises of complaint she makes at that would make more sense coming out of a cat. or small child. either way, not pleased. An excessive amount of wriggling is involved, though she doesn't seem to make any progress.]
Because I'm the adult. [ Loudly. For the benefit of anyone listening in. It's kind of comfy just using her as a human cuddle pillow, so he doesn't bother moving his arm, though he grunts as a flailing elbow jabs him in the ribs. ]
[One more good reach- and, ugh. Too much energy. So just goes utterly limp, a sudden sack of April sprawled across him, forehead pressed against his clavicle. ]
[Damn. He's on to her. She resumes wiggling, but just enough so that she can be on her back, looking up at him, instead of with her face smashed into his neck.]
[It started as an attempt to hit him lightly to emphasize the point, but given their current position it ends with her just patting his wrist with one hand.]
[ It's not a question, so Bradbury isn't obligated to dignify it with a response! Instead, he just squints down at her, levering himself up enough on the elbow of the arm not holding her in place so he can see more than the top of her head. ]
[Nope. Not happening. All her drunken strength is being power into the idea that if she doesn't let go, he'll change his mind and take them back to the drinking couch.]

Adulting is terrible.

Someone's gotta do it. I'm the sacrificial lamb or something. For the good of the many.

[ What are they even talking about anymore: He lets her shift as she wants. ENJOY YOUR STUNNING VIEW OF HIS NOSTRILS AND STUBBLY CHIN??? ]

Getting pretty comfortable there.
no subject
[To prove the point, while keeping eye contact, she just kind of curls up around him.]
no subject
[ He snorts, hand ruffling through her hair absently. ]
no subject
[Tongue officially being stuck out. Like an adult.]
no subject
Keep that up and it's gonna stick that way.
no subject
Which, by the way, currently consists of her sticking out her tongue further.]
no subject
Or would it. Because he's narrowing his eyes at her thoughtfully. ]
no subject
Yeah. Totally stuck.
no subject
We should get some water.
[ This pronouncement is followed by a valiant attempt to get up, taking April with him. ]
no subject
No. No, no, I don't wanna. You were just getting fun.
no subject
The kitchen isn't that far.
[ And look, he's pushing to his feet anyway, arms wrapping around her as he goes and taking her with him. ]
no subject
[arms officially wrapped around his neck now, her cheek pressed almost fully against his as she peers around.]
no subject
[ and they're in the kitchen! and he's sliding her butt onto the counter and attempting to detach her arms from his neck. ]
no subject
We were having fun.
no subject
Fun. [ He says that's word so dubiously. ]
