Blue Forest Banshee Part 8
Duo and the Weres
The cheesy piano tinkled in the background of the noisy bar. The place was crowded with Humans and non-Humans. The Fairy server set their drinks neatly on the table, her wings shedding a microscopic amount of dust. It gravitated naturally toward Duo's glossy hair.
"Thanks for bringing me, guys," he said lightly. "This is fun."
"Oh, our pleasure."
"Absolutely."
Duo lifted the shot glass and dropped it into the beer, then chugged the drink. "These things are great," he smiled when he finished. "What do you call them again?"
"Shooters," said Wufei. "Sake shooters."
"Well, they're good!"
Duo giggled, and a slightly startled expression flashed across his face. He giggled again. Then, before either of his equally startled companions could catch him, he slid out of his chair onto the floor under the table.
His companions looked under the table after him. They raised up and looked at each other.
"He's drunk," said the dragon.
"Uh-huh," agreed the big cat.
"What should we do?"
"Take him home?"
"Our place?"
"Um... Maybe not..."
"Yeah."
"He only had two."
"Maybe he's not used to it."
"You think?"
"Yeah."
The two ducked under the table to retrieve their new friend. Duo was out cold, but not in any distress, his breathing soft and even, with a hint of an occasional snore. The cat picked him up since they had come in the dragon's car.
"He's light!"
"Huh! He's hardly bigger than a mouse; what did you expect?"
"He tossed Heero the other day."
"Well, that's just timing and leverage."
"Have you ever tossed Heero?"
"Have you?"
"That's what I mean."
