I kind of think no cameras is a good thing. No evidence!

And I so wanted to see a fight. :(

Booo!  Bad Amber heightening the drama by delaying the inevitable confrontations between Dan and Jyrras, Destania and the Dragons, Pyro and Alexsi, Abel and Jyrras... (uh, did I leave anyone out?)

Wait.  That doesn't sound right.  I meant to say, hooray for entertaining writing!

You know, I'm rather surprised that Wildy wants a minibar.  Surely Biggs can afford a full bar, and I'd expect that Wildy would be very unsatisfied with those little bottles.

Mmm, she could. But we don't know what is really implied with "no cameras". And besides, I like seeing her getting dissappointed and snubbed yet again.

Also, this had better add to the tension that is building. It would be best if Biggs manipulated wildy a bit and made some insinuations here, a few slips there, and used her to make sure Dan gets just enough wind of this plot of his and Destanias. It would be a good way to earn a new ally... and more importantly, control over another bargaining chip.

What determines what kind of drunk people are anyway? I know alcohol is meant to potentially increase whatever mood your in but surely there are cases of passive people who become angry drunks and vice-versa.

I know someone who is more coordinated after a few drinks than when sober, how exactly is that possible?

Also while on the subject of alcohol, any idea which drinks cause memory loss/stop memories being formed properly?

more like releases inhibitions... a passive person who regularly represses large ammounts of anger might stop repressing, and a person who is a 'tough guy' might normally be putting on an act, which could then slip while drunk.

People are complex creatures, it's hard to figure just what we'll do some times.

there's a certain ammount of 'natural' alcohal in people's systems at all times, some people don't have it.  (my dad knew a guy who drank so much he's go into a coma if he stopped drinking, his body was that dependant on alcohal for him to be normal, but that may not be relevant)

Well, even if Wildy isn't gonna thrash Biggs, she should at least slug him, just to make certain he knows better next time.  Then next we should cut back to Dan and Jy, see how that all plays out!

As for the mini-bar, Woot!  I'm all for that!

as much of a 'player' as biggs imagines himself to be i would be supprised if romantically themed alcahol products dont burst forth from every availeable nook and cranny.

i feel sad that hardly anywhere sells meade anymore. as my favorite drink i am concerned about its availeability. is it that unpopular? whiskey is everywhere, but it tastes far nastyer.

heres for meade *chuggs*
heres for honey *chuggs*
heres for ilicid drunken sex with people as ugly as a gopher that met a lawnmower *chuggs*
heres for hopefully not remembering that liasion *chuggs*
heres for being able to hold youru liquor *chuggs*
heres for battle axes, longswords, and armor covered in furr *chuggs*
heres for pillaging and setting fire to stuff *chuggs*
heres to whoever figures out a way to set a drinking horn down before its empty *chuggs*
heres to haveing a bladder that can hold a liter and a half *chuggs*
heres to a hopefully soft floor *whump*

I meant more like grabbing Dan in very strange ways and to everybody else within Wildly grasp. That kind of touchy feely way it goes to show you that the person like Wildly who is the ultimate in toughness is all warm an fuzzy on the inside when liquor is introduced in the system several times in succession. *Meh* sometimes I don't know when to stop.

Sorry, Gay I'm a bad girl....The Gay comic will be up soon  

What is this all about with the Mini-bar... I mean is a Elevator ride really worth $2.00 more a shot.  Drinks are always go better with Friends or at least company.

I am a weird happy drunk, it doesn't take much to get me messup, but it takes alot for me to pass out.  
On the inside, I'll go for feeling tipsy, to unwilling passenger with a impulsive self driving, to out cold. There is a fourth stage, the unrecorded autopilot sometimes comes on after a short nap. A state of being, which I'm the life of the party and I am left wondering where my expensive red dress is the next morning or where am I for that matter?
So, I don't get drunk very often.

PBH

Edit: OMG, the Comic.... and Poor Wildy do you think that she might be Depressed? She feel bad for hurting Jyrass, she lost her book deal, and a ton of cash.  She is off her game if she is not going to whip-ass her brother... I mean Can Wildy really be so distort that she would talk to Biggs about she problems?

In that case, Open Bar.  Go to a few weddings; you'll learn that there are few things in life better than an open bar stocked for people who are likely to have weird and eclectic tastes.  At least until you have to talk to the father of the groom again.

My father is one. One time he got drunk during an extended family meeting at Las Vegas, and was so enthusiastic it was scary. He walked up to each person in turn and said "You Rock!" Then, when he ran out of people, he started saying things like "That chair rocks!" and "This bed rocks!" He ended up carving "This Table Rocks" into the table.
I've only seen my mother drunk once, and that was at home because she and dad were learning to mix drinks. They accidentally put too much liquor in one of the drinks, and she spent the next fifteen minutes giggling.
