[well done at what horrible, sober cost? kratos sets the glass down on the nearest table. no reason to hold onto something no longer going to be used.]
You realize it'll still be some time before I return to fighting condition.
[chances are if he fired off a fireball right now, it'd hit everything BUT the intended target.]
[the deadpan humor doesn’t escape kratos. it’s a level of funny that he can appreciate, as evidenced by a louder than normal chuckle.]
Perhaps one.
[also said in a lighter tone but with more of smile than normal. more meaning slightly curved upward lips as opposed to fully straightfaced. booze makes a linefacer less linefacy, nuff said.]
Should that end up happening then it may be necessary to rethink my policy on alcohol at these events.
Someone recognized that he was joking, and then proceeded to laugh.
Is he in the Twilight Zone right now.
For a moment, Sousei is a little nonplussed, though it doesn't show much on his face--and then he recovers. Ahem. Naturally, his joke was funny!!! Naturally Kratos should've laughed at it!!! (How is this real life)]
Well. Better it be someone sensible than someone prone to unnecessary actions. [are you just saying that because Kratos laughed at your joke, Sousei...... suddenly he's biased towards Kratos, it's a miracle.]
[it definitely isn't fantasy. there is a real life person with the same sense of humor as sousei. the compliment also butters kratos up the teeniest bit. sober him may have made a comment on how sousei possibly knows how sensible he is. borderline drunk kratos, however, happily accepts the praise.]
Fair enough. Even at my worst, I still possess some semblance of sensibility.
[and modesty. can't forget that big, overgrown modesty.]
[thankfully for the little shit, he’s talking to a big shit. the big shit is a little drunk, however, so the reply takes a moment longer than normal to come.]
You underestimate my tolerance. It was at more a moderate pace.
[said with a small shrug of the shoulders. it's not arguing if it's just pointing out the truth!! ...or maybe he really did have too much to drink. he probably should get some water in him to at least dull the hang over from hell awaiting him in the morning.]
You needn't worry about me drinking anything aside from water for the rest of the festivities.
[a statement that implies kratos can see to himself from here on out, while possibly wobbling on over to the non-alcoholic refreshments.]

[wait was that......a joke.... it was delivered in the same flat tone as ever, but with a more light-hearted edge to it, at least.]
I suppose I shall cover for you if things do get dangerous again.

And slowly, Sousei arches an eyebrow.]
Hm. Even at your worst?

Which is where you were rapidly headed, I assume? [He's not afraid to poke at that either, because he's a little shit.]

[moderately fast is still moderate!]

[Just saying!!!
But he's just ribbing him to be trouble now at this point, honestly. Kratos is still signing himself up for punishment so.]
no subject
[he's better than most people!! really!]
I've had more time than most to build up a high tolerance.
[shame that tolerance doesn't keep kratos' lips from becoming looser once nearly passing those capabilities (or were they already passed?) whoops.]
no subject
Sousei just slowly arches an eyebrow at that, before nodding.]
I'm not interested in arguing with you about this, now that you have already agreed to stop drinking. I was simply observing.
[that you're totally half-drunk, friend.]
