Having decided a while ago, Mew was having his final game with Sora and Shiro. He wanted to part using the thing they both enjoyed: Games. So when Mew had told them he would be leaving soon, Sora and Shiro had agreed to the game almost immediately. Not that they needed any incentive as they were always up for a game.
"This time Steph should join too. The more the merrier, right Steph?"
Sora said, causing Steph to nod her head in a smitten manner, the effect of the 'Fall in Love with me' order still in full throttle. This time she didn't seem to care too much about it though.
"I would love to join you."
Steph said in a cheery tone. And for once she was wearing something normal, a one piece dress that fitted her standing of princess. Well, ex-princess.
"Great! Then let's find us a good place to play. As this will be bye bye to Mew, we need something unexpected as the game..."
Sora said, deep in thought about what the game should be.
"Sora... Let's do it with roulette to choose."
Shiro said, as she knew Sora didn't want something too predictable.
"Then let's have the ministers think of games for each number (Black/White)."
Sora added, calling for the ministers to set up the roulette table.
While one minister was getting the table, the others were thinking of what games they should create.
There were various games they names, Go, Karaoke contest, Chance games, Memory games and a whole lot more. They wrote down all the things they came up with and as soon as the roulette table was set, they divided the ideas across the numbers.
"Are we ready?"
Sora asked, looking at the participants.
Seeing Mew, Steph and Shiro nod, Sora cast the ball onto the spinning roulette wheel, watching intently on which number and color it would fall on.
The wheel slowed down as the colored number was revealed.
Black 17.
"What game is Black 17?"
Steph asked curiously, wanting to look at the note the ministers had on hand.
"Ahem, The game is a drinking contest. In simpler terms, drinking shots and seeing who passes out first."
The minister said, looking in worry at the ones partaking of the game.
"Okay~ Shiro, you're out for this one~ Let your big bro handle this."
Sora said as he patted the underaged Shiro on the head.
"You can do it Nii!"
Shiro replied, giving him a thumbs up. Steph on the other hand, looked a bit pale. She didn't have a lot of confidence in how good she could hold her liquor.
[Then a drinking contest it is! No bets and no rewards/prizes. It's supposed to be fun after all!]
Mew cheerfully said, not understanding on bit why Steph was so down.
"Then, if the participants would follow me please. The game is being prepared.
***
Sitting down at the same table as Steph and Sora, Mew gazed with intrigue at the many cups of liquor in front of him. At each of their side stood a maid, who would keep count of the amount and if someone gave up/dropped out.
"Are you ready?"
The referee asked, glancing at every participant once. Seeing them all nod, the referee anounced for them to start.
The three of them each grabbed a cup, pouring the alcohol down their throat in a fluid motion.
1 cup.
2 cups.
3 cups.
...
9 cups.
At this point, Steph had already stopped as a healthy blush colored her cheeks, the occasional giggle was heard as she was talking to one of the vases on the side. Apparently the flower vase had said? something funny as Steph burst out in loud laughter.
[That seems *giggle* fun~]
Mew muttered, giggling in beween words as they sounded funny even to his own ears.
"She's clearly drunk."
Sora replied, his own eyes as little hazy but clear enough to show it would take a lot more cups for him to pass out. Mew however had already become more red than pink, as the alcohol had already suffused through his body.
A clear example of this was that the table and the things they were sitting on were floating in the air. The maid had aqcuired kitchen stairs for herself to keep track.
"Your not far off either."
Mew giggled in response, as he downed another cup.
[Ten~ Ten~ Ten cupshh~ I am stronggessht~]
Mew began to slurr, even in his telepathic speech.
Sora downed a cup as well, breathing out a warm breath of alcohol smelling air.
"Ten as well."
Not satisfied with having a draw, Mew tried to down another cup, but the whole room began to swirl round him. As a precaution of what might happen, Mew was smart enough to place everything on the ground again as he slumped down on the table, enjoying the cozy feeling of intoxication.
[I feel warm. Feelsh nice~]
Mew murmured, while Sora downed another cup, placing him first.
"Eleven. Seeing as you can't continue, I win."
Having said as much, Sora crashed down on the table as well as he immediately fell asleep. It seems like he couldn't hold he liquor as well either.
[Liquor is delishhh~]
Mew muttered again, becoming drowsy. The last thing he saw was Staph swirling around the room with a massive vase in her hand as she began to kiss it while calling out Sora's name.
