Contrary to what Jake had previously assumed, Sunoo and Niki weren't as affected by the mid-afternoon's soju spritzer shenanigans as the rest were. Turns out, the younger you are, the more intact your metabolism, the easier it is to bounce back from inebriation. Also, Jake was terribly wrong about his estimation of who drank what. They actually split less than half a glass with each other, Niki wasn't a big fan of cucumbers and Sunoo could sense someone had tampered with his concoction. They tried it for the lolz. And then Jake downed most of it.
While Niki and Jake raided the closet to build Niki's leaning tower of ENbeanies and to hunt for a fedora that Jake swore he's seen in Jay's wardrobe, Sunoo poured out the rest of the spritzer down the sink. In the end Sunoo still grazed on the cucumbers, and in typical random-ass Niki fashion he went for the yuja because... jeez, they were pretty buzzed.
Jake was also wrong about his diagnosis of SunKi's hyper, giddiness. Sure they weren't sober, but definitely (maybe) they weren't drunk. Them boys was drunk in love. Obviously, they were invested in seeing the group's de facto parental unit finally kinda sorta get together. Spontaneous improvised karaoke is always fun, so why not. Both of them leaned into the crazy giggly energy Jake, Heeseung and Sunghoon oozed in the moment. Good times for all. Everybody wins.
One thing was for sure, the parentals might be a bit wonky from the drink, but Jake was fucked. He was going to be a mess the next day if they didn't do something to help him out. These two precious boys cared deeply about their dear Jake hyung, ("He's like my dad, but puppy," Niki explains) so after their brief "meeting" in "Sunoo's office" they set off for the store to gather supplies.
///////////////////////
They get back around a quarter to 6:00. Sunoo can't tell if he started the day off too early or if the hours were dragging due to the series of unnecessarily dramatic revelations that kept piling on. (It was both. 100% both.) As he's learned in school and in life, past experiences are the most accurate predictors of future outcomes. The way today had gone, at any minute he expected Jay or Jungwon to enter, magically flying under the radar of the dorm's current inhabitants. As it were, only two out of the five present tenants were awake.
This did not bode well for anyone.
"Well, fuck." Sunoo stares at his hyungs passed out in the living room. His arms are folded shooting disappointed glares at unconscious bodies and the aftermath of an unplanned pizza party. "Niki, what the hell are we gonna do about these dudes? Jungwon's gonna kill us all if he finds the Hyung Line minus Jay in this state."
Behind him, Niki lays out a bounty of homeopathic treatments, carefully curated for a specific mission. "We gotta do what we gotta do, babe." he winks, immediately frying his target's brain.
"Oh boy. Please don't." Sunoo hides his face in his hands, "We haven't had 24 hours of being mutual yet, we cannot have cutesy pet names in casual conversation! Niki, you're killing me!" he pleads.
