Fake another death and I'll strangle you [Jak]

[Josh Dragovalor]

"Will do" He said as he finished his drink before ordering another one. Jak was paying the tab after all, he could afford to get at least a little bit tipsy.

"Don't know" He remarked when Jak asked about current events. "And to be honest with you? I don't care. I was knocked out of the loop, and I don't plan to be in the loop anymore with going ons. What concerns me is my work. I get intel on the slave and crime rings and I deal with them and them alone. The rest of the world, politics and all... Wars, factions... None of those matter to me"

Jak spread his hands in the air in front of them, and spoke in a dramatic, husky voice. "The Rogue Jedi Master Part 2: Shunned... Ex-Grand Master, Joshua DragonsFlame, versus the galaxy, in an over-the-top romance thriller. Warning: Rated B for Badass-ery, Bodacious-ness, and Badmouthing. Coming, 890 ABY." He put his hands down and took a long gulp of his drink. "Yeah, I'd pay money to see that."

Joshua would roll his eyes at that remark. "The Two Plant People Part 3: Whipped ex husband who happens to be a Poison Ivy ripoff now wants to kill his abusive ex wife who cheated on him with an abusive Sith. She is also a poison ivy ripoff. And a Sith. The ex husband is an idiot. Warning: Rated W for Whipped, Rated B for Boring, Rated L for lack of.... Oh right, this is supposed to be PG" He responded with a grin and took a long swig of his drink.

"I wouldn't pay 10 credits to own it on HoloDVD"

Jak smiled and gave Josh a friendly... *cough* gesture. "Nevertheless, the R-rated extras may sell for quite a bit. Anyways..."

Finishing his drink, he asked, "So are we actually going to do a drinking contest, or are you happy with the water you've been guzzling since we got here?"

[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]

 

[Josh Dragovalor]

"Riiight..." He remarked, rolling his eyes. "Anything R-Rated involving Circe, I think I'm going to have to pass on, thanks. And don't even go at me for water, coming from the guy who guzzles it more then a regular human being does. It might as well be your damn alcohol" Josh would add, chuckling a bit.

"Order us the strongest they've got, you've been here before, I haven't. Just remember you're picking up the tab, Sandrow"

[member="Jak Sandrow"]

 

[Jak Sandrow]

"Actually, I can take as much alcohol as I can stomach, yes," Jak grinned. "It's sugar water that gets me."

Ordering four of something called a Death Star Blaster, Jak placed two drinks of a tall, black, fizzing bubbling liquid in front of Josh. "The effects aren't just for show; they're a warning." With that, he started on his first of two drinks.

[Josh Dragovalor]

"Sure you can" He remarked with a laugh. "Order us up, Sandrow, but be warned... I've had years to work up a tolerance. I've made a game out of drinking people under the table" He would crack.

And off to the races they went. He didn't hesitate to start on his first two drinks, he knew there would be more to come...

Just give it time.

When they were each on their fifth Death Star Blaster, and half the bar had crowded around them, Jak grinned, slightly tipsy. "Give up yet?"

[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]

 

[Josh Dragovalor]

It hadn't been that long, despite the Jedi deciding to wisely take it slow despite Jak's insistence on drinking quickly. He preferred to take it slow, steady, patient... Like a Jedi always did. Once they had reached their fifth of this rather strong beverage, the slightly tipsy Jedi Master would shoot a smug grin toward the Plant Knight, noting the crowd that had gathered around them when it had become clear that this was going to be a drinking contest for the ages.

"This is nothing" Joshua would speak confidently. "Face it Jak, I can outdrink you, I can out you in a swordsmans duel, hell I could probably out-do you in... In your wife!" He cracked, laughing a bit. That was the first indicator that he was tipsy, ever so slightly.

[Jak Sandrow]

"Oh, really?" Jak challenged. "Another four!"

---

Now Jak could feel it. He was astonished that a regular human like Josh wasn't collapsed on the floor. Heck, his blood must have been 90 proof by now.

"Gonna give up yet?" Jak slurred.

[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]

 

[Josh Dragovalor]

He had lost track of the time. He had lost track of how many drinks he had. But he knew one thing, he was stone drunk. Admittedly, he'd cheated a little. It was around this time that he'd started to use the Force as a means of diluting his drunkenness and keeping himself mildly sober. But he could only prolong it and slow it down. And he'd only started recently, when it'd already begun to kick in.

"Hah! In your dreams Plant Eater!" Joshua would respond, pointing at Jak as he would chug another drink down, not going as slow as he was before. "I'm making you pay your share since Ima paying to get you out of-a-here!"

[member="Jak Sandrow"]

 

[Jak Sandrow]

"Well, we're not getting out of here right now," Jak grinned, definitely feeling the alcohol working. "Remember what happened last time we tried to drink and fly?"

With that, he started on the tenth Blaster. He eyed the glass with a bit of trepidation, though it didn't show. "Bring it," he challenged Josh.

[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]

 

[Josh Dragovalor]

"You're still paying" He would remark with a smirk. "Bsssides, the droid will handle the flyin. He handles it while ima sober anyway!" He cracked as he gulped down another drink without a moment's hesitation.

He was on his tenth now. Or at least he was pretty sure. It could have been his 8th or 9th or 50th, it wouldn't have mattered at this point. He was full of confidence. It's probably good neither of them saw a pretty lady in the bar right about now (Feel free to invite one LOL) or the drunknness might get ugly. Really fast.

[Jak Sandrow]

Jak finished his tenth and looked blearily across the table. "Hey, man, I think we should stop; we'll drink the bartender out of his house and home." He stood up, noting the random seismic anomalies, and made his way to the bar, where he paid in full, to the bartender's surprise and delight.

He went over to give Josh a hand. "Call it a tie till we get some Wookiee-grade alcohol?"

[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]

 

[Josh Dragovalor]

"Fiiiine" The Jedi Master would respond when Jak decided that it was time they finished their contest. Things had begun to calm down, and they were both drunk out of their minds. So he would take the offered hand and stepped off the stool, waiting for the smuggler (Or he was pretty sure he was a smuggler in the state that he was in) to finish paying before heading out the door.

"That alcohol was crappy grade anyway. Let's try Kashyykk next time" He remarked.

[member="Jak Sandrow"]

 

[Jak Sandrow]

"I jus' said that," Jak grumbled, finding the door and heading out. "So... what now?"

[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]

 

[Josh Dragovalor]

"We'sh cud go... Back to ship?" He respond drunkenly. "Get-sh you off the.... Tree planet?" He would slur as he tried to make his way toward what he assumed was the spaceport.

He was pretty sure, anyway.

[member="Jak Sandrow"]

 

[Jak Sandrow]

"Soun's like a gud idea," Jak nodded. "Spape-port's thiss way." He was reasonably assured, he thought.

[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]

 

[Josh Dragovalor]

"Leadsh... The wey" He responded drunkly, nearly knocking Jak over when the 6'3 Jedi Master would clumsily topple into him. "Wups"

[member="Jak Sandrow"]

 

[Jak Sandrow]

Jak tried to catch, but missed by a mile, helping Josh up clumsily. "Ya got two feet... use 'em..."
