There was no reason for her to be sinking shots like this. Tyler Jane was supposed to be giving the lesson, not taking it! But taking it she was. Sav was trying to at least keep up with TJ, given the aim of the game was to get both combatants drunk, and the easy-drinking taste of the Hpnotiq was helping with that at least. However, Savannah was already starting to feel somewhat woozy. [color=ff4de1][i]Shoot... is my tolerance that bad...?[/i][/color] In her thoughts, it had been... never since she had anything stronger than a Breezer, but still it didn't make sense. In reality, the months of detox in preparation for her entry into San Agustin had done enough to eliminate most of Payout's ability to handle her booze, but she couldn't be aware of that yet. [color=ff4de1]"Sorry, TJ. Guess I'm just a natural at this!"[/color] she offered as she took another swig from her blue bottle in an effort to steady the ship. [color=ff4de1]"But I think I'm ready to take on some of those other boys coming in here!"[/color] There was just one boy she wasn't truly prepared to take on yet. Unfortunately for Savannah, that boy was the one heading to the table in all his floral-patterned glory. Nicholas Grey. Of course. Although his bandaged-up hand bore some questions. [color=ff4de1][i]The hell did he do to himself? Guess he's not coming over to play the pong, that's for sure...[/i][/color] [color=4682b4][b]“Evening girls. I have to admit: the place looks great. Although, nowhere nearly as good as you two do.”[/b][/color] [color=ff4de1][i]Wha-what? Did he just say that? He had to be just saying that, right?[/i][/color] Savannah brushed some strands of blonde-pink hair behind her right ear. [color=ff4de1][i]I mean, I haven't even done anything. I've just been in here since getting back from the gas station, and TJ did so much effort to look that good, and... Nooooooo... he can't really mean that. But still, I mean, it's nice I guess. To get a compliment from a guy like that.[/i][/color] The Texan looked over at TJ though, aware that she didn't want to flood the bridge so soon after the water had passed underneath it. Tyler Jane, however, was paying Nicholas no mind. She tapped one of the spectators to take a celeb shot and unfortunately, he must have been one of Griffin's teammates on the basketball team, because he hit nothing but plastic. That sound snapped Savannah out of her temporary daze. [color=ff4de1]"Awww, the fuck? That's a cheap shot, Tee!"[/color] Savannah complained as the curse words started to filter into her speech the more alcohol she consumed. Still, she dutifully took another shot from her kind blue bottle. [color=ff4de1]"I get dibs on Griffin then if his ass shows up over here!"[/color] Still TJ was intent on confronting the target, and Savannah was torn between trying to press the advantage she didn't know she had, and to stick up alongside her friend. [color=ffa54d][b]"Oh, hi Nicholas. Nice of you to join us... fashionably late I see.”[/b][/color] Tyler Jane has made her choice. She was playing coy. Well, Savannah could as well... ...if she wanted to. She shook her head slightly. This was Nicholas Grey in front of her. Already complementing her minimal efforts to get ready for this shindig. Still looking like a snack even if he was walking wounded. But was he that tempting of a snack? Before, he was looking like a Blizzard, now it was just a snow cone. And snowcones weren't worth the effort once you got past that first juicy stage... So Savannah turned and looked at the boy and decided to stand her ground with the redhead. [color=ff4de1]"Yeah, fuck, I mean, you come any later all the alcohol was going to be drank up! What, are we not worth your time?"[/color] She motioned to herself and TJ but her finger pointed at her friend far longer than it did at herself. [color=ff4de1]"Typical fuckin' dude. You know-"[/color] [color=6bb8cf][b]"Sorry to inturupt - but I was wondering... Savannah, would you like to dance?"[/b][/color] To get Payout to cut a potential rant off full stop took a heck of a move, but Talya, out of nowhere, came in with the stunner. Savannah let out a weak gasp at the offer as she had to pause. [color=ff4de1][i]Holy shit, is Talya...[/i][/color] The Texan's eyes looked her scavenger hunt teammate over. Drink in hand, that long dark hair smoothed perfectly in place, that outfit just hitting all the right buttons. Payout was a sucker for that tank top and jacket combo. It just worked for her. [color=ff4de1][i]Huh... why am I thinkin' I shouldn't do this? I mean, Nicholas is right there... Don't I...[/i][/color] She looked between the two dark-haired options in front of her and the more she stared, the more she couldn't believe this was an actual choice. [color=ff4de1][i]Ah fuck that heteronormative shit. Stick that bull up that Sunday school teacher's ass. This is happening now. See where it goes.[/i][/color] Any thoughts of trying to best her friend for the guy's attention were long gone now that the true hypnotic presence of Savannah's evening had revealed herself. Savannah smiled from ear to ear as she looked over at Nicholas and TJ before turning back to Talya. [color=ff4de1]"You know what, Tal? That sounds like a lovely idea. Just give me one sec, sugar."[/color] Savannah turned back to the table and lined up the last of Tyler Jane's cups that remained untouched. With one eye closed, her arm cocked back and let loose a laser shot that was destined to end up plinking in off the back up the target and into the liquid. [color=ff4de1]"Couldn't let TJ off the hook for callin' that celeb shot to try and save her ass! Anyway, someone else can run the table for a bit. Maybe we'll be back for the tag-team titles."[/color] She dusted off her hands and presented the right one to Talya. [color=ff4de1]"Lead the way to the dance floor, darlin',"[/color] she commanded as ceded her position. It was time to sink some different shots.[/indent][/indent][/color] [hr]
