comment_ficIronically, I am half in the bag right now writing this (If you can't tell that's because I'm never too drunk to spell check). I have a long weekend with no kid, no responsibilities and have decided to spend it lightly messed up. I'm having a great time. -Thursday Edit, seriously, great job me for being this coherent because by the time I wrote Thursday I was waaay more than half drunk.
But there are other ways and reasons to be blitzed. You can trip cause you're happy, drink cause you're sad, and smoke to deal with the pain. You can be lightly buzzed, or black-out drunk. You can get high, roll, trip face, and sink into a K-hole
Okay, I'm sure you've gotten the point.
As always...
* No more than five prompts in a row
* No more than three prompts per fandom
* If one or more of your prompts is filled today, then you may prompt again
* No spoilers within prompts until a week after the airdate/release
* Warn for spoilers in bold and leave at least three spaces before the text
For Example
Harry Potter, multi-generational, Nothing like those playful drunk nights with friends
Torchwood, The Team, There's something causing panic down in party district, but you have to be drunk to see it.
Supernatural, Any, Drunk on Power
Torchwood, Any, Accidental exposure to an alien substance that leads to (in any order) giddiness, rage, paranoia, arousal, despair, with overall lowered inhibitions and an increased likelyhood to tell the truth
Any of the above fandoms, Any, a fun night out

Date: 2014-02-06 01:49 pm (UTC)The Vampire Diaries, Damon/Alaric, Better With You
Date: 2014-02-07 10:27 am (UTC)---
"I love you, man."
Ric's voice is slurred, overloud and Damon's not even sure he's completely conscious. His eyes are half closed and he's draped over the vampire like a blanket. They're laid out on the couch in front of the fire at the boarding house. Damon isn't sure how Ric ended up laid on top of him, but he's not about to complain, at least not tonight. Maybe tomorrow morning when Ric is hungover and embarrassing him will be more fun.
He just pats his friend on the back, "Yep, I know, buddy."
"No, Damon, I mean... like, you're a total dick but you're so awesome and I freaking love you, man." Alaric says, slapping Damon's chest.
"Thinking you don't love me as much as Makers Mark."
He tries not to sound bitter, but Ric is so far gone, he probably can't even tell. It's the same every time the teacher gets this drunk. I love you, Damon. You're amazing, Damon. Let's adopt a cat, Damon. Damon has learned not to take him too seriously. The heart he doesn't have doesn't skip a beat anymore. He doesn't love Damon, he's just drunk and overly affectionate.
Alaric shakes his head, "'m gonna tell you a secret, 'cuz, you're my best friend and you don't have anyone to tell because nobody likes you, except me."
Damon wants to dispute that, but, yeah, sounds about right.
"I don't even like bourbon." Ric tells him, "Just drank it 'cuz it made me drunk and being drunk is awesome but then you with your... fancy pants bourbon. Now I can't stop and it's your fault 'cuz it tastes better with you or it reminds me of you and you make me happy, so bourbon makes me happy and I really love you, man."
And Damon hates himself for the way the breath he doesn't need to take catches and a smile reaches his cynical mouth.
"Yeah." Damon runs a hand through Ric's hair, "Love you too."
The room is quiet, except for the crackling of the fire in front of them. Damon can feel his eyes falling shut before Ric's voice pipes up again.
"Seriously dude. We should get a cat."

Fill: Original fic
Date: 2014-02-16 11:28 am (UTC)"Hey, lazybutt. Turn off Netflix, we're going out."
Nora pulled one earbud out, squinting up suspiciously. "Where?"
"We're going to go be social at the pub. Up up." Fiona leaned over and pushed the laptop closed. Nora huffed good-naturedly.
"Why?"
"Because we've spent two months in this town and the only people we know are April and the butcher who still thinks you're a reclusive artist who paints with blood."
"That would be you."
Fiona nodded. "Exactly. So we're going to go get drunk and make new friends."
"Vampires can't get drunk," Nora said, pushing herself up off the couch.
"Great." Fiona tossed her the keys. "You can drive."
*
The pub was reasonably crowded. Just off the main square, it was the only bar in town, so it was somewhat of a social hub for anyone who wanted anything approaching a nightlife. Fiona was midway through her third drink and just past tipsy when she spotted April in a small booth, reading a book and nursing a bottle of beer. She was tapping her fingernails on the bottle with a ping! ping! ping! that cut through the noise of the bar like a knife.
Fiona plopped down opposite her. "Hi."
"Hi." April lowered her book, one finger marking the page.
"Thought it was your night tonight?"
A slight dent appeared between April's brows. "Starts tomorrow."
"Hm." Fiona nodded, swigging down the last of her bottle. She pointed at April's own drink, still nearly untouched on the table in front of her. "Thought werewolves couldn't get drunk either?"
A shrug. "It'd be weird to come in here and not order anything."
"I live with a vampire," Fiona said, her words approaching slurred. "Don't talk to me about weird."
"I spend three days a month as a wolf," April reminded her.
Fiona thought about this for a moment. "Touche."

FILL: Always Burning [Mistborn Trilogy - Brandon Sanderson, Kelsier, PG-13]
Date: 2015-05-22 04:05 pm (UTC)The nobles lie at his feet, and he looks down at them and feels a curious lack of emotion. They're dead, he just murdered them, and yet...
He's always hated them, but he's still aware that he's never quite been like this. He was frequently angry, sometimes cruel, but never actually murderous. Never actually willing to slaughter, to take lives as easily as a drink of ale.
But times change.
Times change, and people change too. The innocent becomes jaded, the thief becomes a prophet, the peaceful man... Well. He still remembers the pits. He still remembers the darkness, and the scars being made, and the look in Mare's eyes as she finally gave in.
He looks down at the corpses of the nobles beneath him. Dull eyed, covered in blood, with clawed hands stretching helplessly for the sky.
And he feels... Happy.
