[ It isn't odd... and yet his ears flick as he listens to the chatter with an oddly straight, serious face, as he takes it all in to register the supposed explanation... from one person, seemingly.

The heavy fragrance of intoxication around them settles silently as Kaoru searches for the right thing to say, the soft hue of pink on his cheeks getting redder with each drink. ]

... hmm. It's true that working in the infirmary would let you interact with the infected, but... that doesn't explain your situation, Ritsu-kun.

[ An odd smile tugs at the corners of his mouth. It's a little melancholy, a little knowing. Is he being too pushy... too forward here? He isn't trying to claw the secrets out of their hands, but a growing concern for others just within his reach keeps gnawing at the edge of his heart. There's too many unknowns. ]

Not that you have to tell me or anything. We're not all that close yet, I think.

[this makes them even, tori's guessing. taking care of ritsu, ritsu saving him the trouble of giving an excuse. he relaxes a little and swirls his drink, which would be Cool if it wasn't tori, and feels the alcohol more when he slouches onto the table.

... wow. that was a moment.]

Isn't the point of this game to make us closer~? Ritsu-senpai was in the infirmary for a while too, and it's not like anyone who's infected is like, out of their mind... upstairs, anyway. Um, the worse cases are downstairs, but I'm not allowed to be in there yet.

[because. he will be. someday. somehow.]

It's scary anyway.

[nemuru]

[ ...Scary, yeah. Ritsu rests his chin in his hand, watching his drink. ]

Mmm... Well, sure, that's true, Pinky, but I've cuddled with a sick manticore cub too... Me and Midorin went out and it tackled me, so I'm counting it... I guess. [ A wave. ] Aaaanyway, my turn, right...? Guess that's enough stallin', I've got a pretty good idea of what I can do.

[ A light hum, and he cages his mouth with his fingers, smiling wide behind them. ]

Ne-ver have I e-ver... Had a drink poured on me.

[kaowont]

[ Oh, okay. That's how it's gonna go, huh. Well, no way out of that one — and it's more than just a swig that Kaoru takes, his head tipping back... all the way, aaand... yeah. His drink is gone. ]

Reeeal clever, Ritsu-kun.

[ The show must go on, though, and it's easy to wave over another drink given his familiarity with the staff, his hand just a little more touchy on the waitress than before... ]
