[ What a boring answer, but probably true. It's pretty amusing to watch him drink so heavily though, and so Cloud lets him do so for a moment. He's really curious how Sephiroth's going to act once the alcohol really hits him. ]

How're you feeling?

[sefirot]

[Well, he's certainly starting to feel it. He's trying to hide it though under the slight delusion that he's perfectly fine. Because why would simple alcohol affect him at all?]

... Fine. I'm fine.

[Totally fine.]

[chocobohaired]

[ You can't hide from Cloud, Sephiroth. He sees right through you. ]

You sure? Not feeling a little buzzed?

[ He nudges Sephiroth, almost playfully. ]

[sefirot]

I -- hm. Yes?

[He actually has to grab Cloud's shoulder in order to keep himself steady after the nudge. Which it's a good thing Cloud is enhanced because Sephiroth will probably have a hard time controlling his own strength after awhile.]

[chocobohaired]

[ Cloud snorts, swaying a little himself when Sephiroth grabs his shoulder. He snatches the bottle from him and takes a swig. Sephiroth is obviously affected... this is going to be good.

With Sephiroth closer than before and with Cloud's judgement impaired, he leans in to him and reaches a hand out - impulsively grabbing at the chest straps of his armour. ]

Why's your chest exposed like this anyway? Seems kinda stupid to leave it all... open.

[ It's also distracting, but Cloud's not quite drunk enough yet to admit that. ]

[sefirot]

Rarely is something capable of striking me so it does not matter. Perhaps if you did not get hit so often you would understand.

[Sephiroth is too drunk to care that Cloud is grabbing him like that. It's sort of 'whatever' at this point. He's probably not going to stop him from doing anything else, so use that to your advantage Cloud.

... Though he's probably going to be as far gone as Sephiroth here eventually.]

[chocobohaired]

[ Wow, Sephiroth that's both rude and uncalled for. Cloud snorts and releases the chest straps, letting them snap against Sephiroth's skin. ]

I don't get hit often. Asshole. [ He presses his index finger to the middle of Sephiroth's chest, swaying a little. ] Next time we fight I'm gonna specifically target your chest. Then you'll see why it's a bad idea to.. to expose it like that.

[sefirot]

[Rude. Sephiroth shows no real reaction to Cloud snapping his chest straps. Or the finger against his chest.

But he does lean in a little closer.]

If I recall, you were fully covered up while still getting impaled --

[He speaks while bringing up his own hand to poke Cloud on the chest.]

Here.

[chocobohaired]

[ Cloud scowls at him. Not a memory he's keen to relive, but luckily he's too drunk to find himself thrown back into that nightmare. Instead he decides to turn it back on Sephiroth. ]

I got you good too. Right here.

[ He presses his entire hand against Sephiroth's side, also leaning in closer, his other hand plopping down on Sephiroth's knee for a lack of any other place to put it. ]

[sefirot]

Yes, I am aware of how you stabbed me in the back, Cloud.

[He was distracted at the time. So it doesn't count.

While he does nothing about it, his eyes do trail down towards the hand on his knee. He might be too drunk to care that Cloud is touching him but that doesn't mean he hasn't noticed it.]

[chocobohaired]

[ Cloud snorts. As if Sephiroth has any right to be indignant over that. ]

Yeah, and you stabbed me in the chest and I still bested you.

[ God, what a weird sort of pissing contest this has turned into. ]
