Who: Shinpachi & you!
When: 02/15, so after the Nexus Code thing.
Where: Out on the streets! He's coming home from the Pleasure District so anything between there and the Residential District is fair game.
What: Shinpachi solves problems and deals with emotions the only way he knows: by getting completely wasted.
Rating/Warning: Warnings for an angry drunk guy, possible pottymouth use, maybe some.. fighting..?? Who knows, Shinpachi is a loose cannon.

[ It's always like shit goes from bad to worse.

Dealing with shit in Zelien was annoying enough. Dealing with shit here was - relatively speaking - a little easier, but still totally shit. He didn't sign up to be chased by some weird random huge monster ever two weeks or so, okay.

But then that last event got downright disturbing again near the end, and then he woke up and the apartment was so damn empty. There were so many people before, but now it's just Saitou and him - the usual presence of Sano sleeping nearby was gone. One by one, it's like everyone is leaving, and while Shinpachi wants to pretend he's perfectly capable of dealing with that, it honestly does get to him. Especially since he knows that back home only he and one other person are going to survive. This might have been one of the last chances to spend some time with them, so why did they leave him here and send everyone else off to god knows where? (The uncertainty of what happens to people when they disappear just makes the whole matter worse.)

So of course Shinpachi goes to do what he does best. Drink. He just tries to find a bar he normally never goes so he won't run into familiar faces, drinks until he can't anymore or is kicked out of the bar, and then moves to go home.

Except he's completely drunk. If you're out on the streets, then you'll probably spot him, hardly able to even walk straight. Maybe you see him wandering around and bumping into any random thing lining the streets, or maybe he's even bumping straight into you without warning.

Or maybe you have an even worse fate - Shinpachi's so drunk that he honestly won't discriminate between people he actually knows and strangers, and will gladly walk up to anyone to start drunkenly (and loudly, especially that) rant to whoever passes by. ]

Can you.. [ okay, wait, give him a moment, he'll find his words. ] Can you believe this place's shit?!

[ Very eloquent. Sorry that you now have to deal with this disaster on legs. Please get him somewhere safe. ]

[He's here to help and hopefully not get flattened if Shinpachi really does lose his balance... He sure isn't being easy to handle, though?! JUST SIT ON THE BENCH.]

I know— I think we all do... But you should really sit down, anyway.

["Before you get sick or fall over" is what he wants to finish that with, but he bites his tongue nicely since Shinpachi's clearly already dealing with enough shit today.]

[ He starts on another grumbled protest, but it goes quiet after a moment. Maybe he realises he should really sit down-- or more like, he just doesn't want to argue about this when he already has enough things spinning through his mind, trying to fight for the first spot of being rambled about at the moment.

So he stumbles over to the bench with Oz's help and at least plops down, although he still doesn't look too good. But hey, he can't fall over like this.. small wins.. ]

I just wanna skewer those CERES bastards already.. [ grumble, grumble. ]

["He can't fall over like this" THAT'S THE TALK OF A QUITTER!!

Actually, Oz really is concerned he might still manage to fall over, so he stays close by... He doesn't sit down next to Shinpachi just yet (since he's also mildly concerned about being stuck in a drunken headlock), but he's definitely near enough to catch him if he starts teetering!]

I don't think you're alone there. ...You're not going to try anything right now though, right?

[ That's a good question, Oz.

So good, in fact, that Shinpachi frowns at him for a moment or two like he has to think about this too. Consider this idea. But why wait with skewering those CERES people if he can do it now?? What a genius idea, thanks for your helpful input for his drunken mind that's already lost all boundaries hours ago. ]

Might as well.

[ He moves to stand up, and..

... falls backwards right onto the seat. Maybe not today, buddy, how about when you have an actual sense of balance? ]

[LORD. He's to help, but hopefully Shinpachi won't actually be at risk of tipping over or else Oz will probably rediscover the feeling of slamming into a muscle wall.]

You should sit for a while longer, I think!

[HE THINKS... Just in case... Something in his heart is just telling him that it's a bad idea to let Shinpachi go try to punch their overlords when he can barely stand, gosh.]
