"Okay, okay. Tea it is," Jingyi laughs, and grabs both their cups so he could go brew some more, the electric kettle already still heated so all he had to do was wait for it to steep with the alcohol.

"I'm not surprised it's good. You could probably get super drunk just not realizing how much you're actually drinking."

Tommy's beside Jingyi again in a blur, of course.

"I can't get drunk."

"Then what exactly is irresponsible about shots?"

"I don't know," Tommy admits. But this was what people told him. A lot.

"Like, getting drunk is bad or something."

"But...." Jingyi makes a face like he's trying to figure it out and he just isn't getting it.

"That doesn't make sense."

[personal profile] doubled_speed 2020-11-12 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Well duh, of course it doesn't. He knows it. But people have double standards.

"Nope. But that's what people tell me."

“Do you always just listen to what people tell you?” Jingyi asks as he’s letting the tea steep now.

"I'm called a sociopath when I don't," Tommy answers.

"That seems extreme..." Jingyi rolls his eyes and reaches to pull down some snacks out of his cabinet.

doubled_speed: (Default)

[personal profile] doubled_speed 2020-11-15 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Ooooh, snacks. Tommy looks, watching. He could use that, really use that.

"Could I, uh, have some?"

[personal profile] unlanlike 2020-11-15 02:32 pm (UTC)(link)

"Yeah, of course. You don't even have to ask man," Jingyi says, waving his arm at what he's taken down and all the snacks left in the cabinet as well.

Oh man, how kind. He grabs a serving pack of some sort of fruit chews and pops that open.

"You're just the best dude to hang with sometimes."

Jingyi opens a bag of chips and starts to eat some and then pushes the other's cup toward him when it was done steeping.

"I mean I am awesome. I'm glad you recognize."
doubled_speed: (Default)

[personal profile] doubled_speed 2020-11-17 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm used to recognizing things other people don't."

He throws back the drink and then follows it with more fruit chews.

"None of this is easy."

"What do you mean none of this is easy?" Jingyi asks, glancing over at him as he takes a much slower drink of his tea.

"The school stuff. The living up to the expectations of others stuff. Lots of shit. In some people's eyes I barely count as human."

ANd he hates that fact.

Jingyi leans against the counter and he's busy stuffing his face with chips and alternately drinking his tea. "Those people are basically cavemen."

[personal profile] doubled_speed 2020-11-22 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
"You're not wrong. But everyone tells me that I have to be better. I have to be ABOVE the things they call me. It's not easy."

How frustrating. Tommy sips his tea again, rolling his eyes.

"But there it is, I gotta be what they want me to be."

[personal profile] unlanlike 2020-11-22 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)

“Why do you have to?” Jingyi asks and he shifts to push himself up and sit on the counter top.

“Lan traditions and rules are very strict and I never fit in and I always got in a lot of trouble and even so they never tried to just make me into someone else.”

[personal profile] doubled_speed 2020-11-25 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Because if he doesn't...

"People don't tend to be cool with people fucking up the world they so carefully make, you know? I could fuck it up really easy."
unlanlike: (Default)

[personal profile] unlanlike 2020-11-28 08:09 am (UTC)(link)

"And you getting drunk means you'd fuck up the world....?"

doubled_speed: (Default)

[personal profile] doubled_speed 2020-11-30 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
No, Tommy AGREES with him. But Tommy can't make any of it better.

"I don't know. Maybe? I don't even know if I can get drunk.?

“Dude, come on. Let’s try,” Jingyi grins.

doubled_speed: (Default)

[personal profile] doubled_speed 2020-12-09 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Let's try? Tommy bursts out laughing.

"I don't think you have enough alcohol here to even try. But I'm good to see."

[personal profile] unlanlike 2020-12-13 04:06 am (UTC)(link)

“Well, then, we should get more first,” Jingyi says simply. Problem? Solution!
