I have decided this shall be posted entirely out of season. Have a NYE party :)

《♤》

Tonight would officially go down as 'The Party To End All Parties'.

The moment the others got here, the mood immediately changed from suits and small talk to the pure chaos Xisuma has come to expect from get-togethers such as this. Everyone had stunning formal wear, even the admin himself, as he changed the party area and a fair bit of land around it - cough cough drunk Bdubs - to End atmosphere so he wouldn't dissipate without his armor. Even semi-plasmic (please help I forgot the fucking word) beings could wear nice suits. The deep purple satin went well with him.

Everyone was already well on the way to total drunkenness, though it didn't seem like it in some cases. For example, Mumbo had the uncanny ability to get high as fuck and still sound completely sober. Speaking of which...

"Mumbo?"

"Yes Egg-suma?"

"Tell me Doc and Iskall aren't having a drinking contest."

"They are, unfortunately. They tried to include Grian, too, but it turns out he has the alcohol tolerance of a slug, so they gave him a bunch of juice-boxes."

"Cute, but I need to stop them before-"

*THUD*

"-it's too late."

"There goes Iskall. Just like last time."

"I'll go get him."

"Godspeed."

Approaching the table cautiously so as not to appear threatening in the slightest, Xisuma watched Doc's face for signs of ferality like the last time this happened.

"See-Soooo-mA! i woN!"

"Good job, Doc."

"No one bEeats the gOAt- GoatffffatheR!"

"Very nice Doc, now let me get Iskall please."

"nO! I won faIr and sssquare!"

"Doc, jUst let X-I-suma grab-"

"SSHuSH!"

"Wait- Grian did you manage to get drunk from juice-boxes?"

"hehE- mayyybe."

"How the fU-"

Xisuma was quickly cut off by a punch to the jaw from a very fed-up and very drunk Doc. Thankfully, he only dissipated in that area for a moment. Knowing what followed, the admin quickly left the area to avoid getting caught up in the coming fight. Thank Notch he did, too.

¡~《FIGHT!》~¡

Doc's second punch hit Mumbo square in the nose, sending him reeling backwards into Jevin. Jevin responded by lashing out with slime tentacles, only managing to knock Etho into the punch bowl in his drunken stupor. While Etho tried to process why he was soaked in the punch he spiked, Grian threw a tankard nearby at Scar, clearly wanting in on the quickly escalating brawl. Pearl, who was standing next to Scar, quickly caught and returned fire, effectively flooring the lightweight man with a *THWOCK*. Before he could recover, Etho - who finally made sense of the situation at hand - leapt on top of him, starting a side-fight. Stress went to film, but was dragged into the fight by Doc nearly ripping out her throat. Etho, having barely won his mini brawl, left the 'unconscious' Grian for a very much awake Jevin. Jevin once again released his tentacles, this time hitting a few more mar-

¡~《WINNER!》~¡

When Xisuma came to, he was met with a very concerned group of previously wasted hermits, indicating they had all respawned at some point. Come to think of it, so had he. He was back in his bed.

"Morning X."
"Good morning, Cleo."
"We saved the fireworks show for ya if you wanna watch."
"That would be lovely."

The night may not have gone to plan, but sitting in a midday field watching the beautiful fireworks with his even more beautiful servermates?

He wouldn't have it any other way.

End notes!

-This was my first attempt at writing drunk people having never seen a drunk person
-I requested this idea to someone else's book a while back, and decided I wanted to write it myself
-I don't watch a lot of the hermits, so sorry if they're OOC

As always, feedback of any kind is much appreciated. See ya!
