Pairing: None as such; just CP9's attempt at bonding
Kaku was the one who suggested it, thinking it might be a good way to get CP9 to bond over something other than Spandam-hatred.
Blueno added the drinking aspect of the game as he was certain he could drink everyone else under the table.
Jyabura agreed to it enthusiastically. There was no way in hell he was going to be beaten by Blueno.
Fukurou joined in because he couldn’t possible miss a chance to gleam some drunken gossip.
Kalifa accepted it with a resigned smile - a smile resigned to the fact that none of these men would know what had hit them once she got started.
Kumadori furiously declined, spouted a lecture about the evils of drink and flounced off to meditate.
And Lucci and Hattori, who both took their drink in strict moderation, sat aside and waited for those fools to make idiots of themselves.
The game wasn’t difficult. Two die under a cup, shook up by the first player and the total looked at and read out solely by that person. The next player had to do the same, only the total on their die had to be higher than that of the first. If it wasn’t, you had to down your drink. If you lied about it and were found out then you also had to drink. A supreme challenge for the masters of deception.
Except no one took into account the presence of Fukurou, incapable of lying to save himself from drinking and knew exactly what was under the cup at any given moment.
No one won the game that night.
Lucci got up and left the five unconscious members of CP9 in their positions on, around and under the table. He was going to treat them all to a dawn wake-up call the next day…
