[ Aww Shinpachi, you're so considerate. ] I don't mind trying something now. [ This one agrees with him; he can handle it. If he handled his arrival, he can handle most things.

But that's totally not a good coping method, Shinpachi. Not cool. However, it's been a while since Saitou has even last drunk with anyone, so maybe that was a better thing to work for coping. ]

I hope you aren't expecting me to do the same. [ A pause. ] So should I take it that usually you're the one that has to always be carried out? What does Sano say about that?

[ Just a very mild "think about the others" sort of concern. Mild because he didn't come here to lecture Shinpachi. As he looks at his glass and...oh, he actually drank half it, he has a feeling he won't even have a place to judge tonight. ]
