"Woah." Corbin raised a dark eyebrow at his roommate who had somehow wrestled a carrying tray for his assortment of drinks. Various shot glasses and whiskey glasses glimmered with dark and light liquors as the other wolf set them onto the table between them. By his estimate, there was enough to get a few more people drunk in addition to themselves. "Are you planning on drinking all that yourself?"
As Fletcher settled onto his side of the curved booth - they had picked a corner booth since it was the three of them, and it allowed them to share more easily - he cast a pointed, albeit bemused, look. "Not necessarily. I am, however," he said, picking up one of the shot glasses with pure vodka in it, "planning on drinking whatever you two don't." The drink when down without any preamble or chasers; now empty, Fletcher turned the glass over and set it back onto the tray, offering a small shrug as he did so. "I did say I was planning to forget tonight."
Earlier that day Fletch had come home with a stormy brow and a dark scowl, announcing his girlfriend had suddenly - and spectacularly, judging by the way onlookers had stared - broken up with him. Of course, Corbin had pressed for the reason but was only met with grumpy silence or an obvious diversion. It was their other roommate's idea to go out and try to dispel whatever was on Fletch's mind with drink.
Corbin had only agreed because it was clear Fletcher seemed keen on the idea, and their roommate seemed keen on going. He was only keen on making sure the night didn't turn into something they would regret. And so they had prepared, Fletcher keeping it simple with jeans, a tank top, and a leather jacket, while Corbin chose jeans and a flannel shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows.
"Well, if you twist my arm like that..." He selected a rum and coke for himself, thumbing idly over the condensation coating the glass. "Should we say a cheers I guess? To 'good riddance' and all that?" The lighter-colored wolf wordlessly picked up another shot, downed it, then grabbed a third.
"To good riddance," Fletcher confirmed.
After a few sips of his drink, Corbin turned to their roommate and smirked, nudging him gently with an elbow. "Are you going to be able to keep up with us?" It was a preposterous notion, given how much larger they were than the cat; both of them had at least six inches of height on him, but Corbin teased anyway. "I don't think I have ever seen you drink, actually."
