TW: Drinking/Alcohol use
————————————————————
2 Years ago.......

Everything was going according to plan, The balloons are up, the fireworks are ready, Everything was ready to thank the dimensions' four heroes.

Two lombaxes and two robots we're waving at the fans. The boys looked more comfortable doing it since they've been doing it for.......I don't know.........years? But the girls we're a bit more shyer. The celebration was newer to them but they tried their very best not to show that they were uncomfortable.

After taking a few selfies and writing a few autographs and doing other fun stuff, the four were hanging out at the bar. The female lombax, Rivet, since she was the boldest and the sassiest of the group, The one that don't give much comet about people staring at her at a bar (other places is a different story), she took 20 shots of strong whiskey for a drink as the male lombax, Ratchet, had a glass of mint water and the two robots, Clank and Kit, had oil to drink, since they're robots.

"This is soooooooo much better than the boring waving to the fans and all that stupid comet!" Rivet started, blushing from how strong her shots were even though she only took five shots, "I will be right here instead of out there!"

Ratchet just gave her a look, knowing that she was tipsy, five more shots and she is drunk, and he can't imagine how she's going to be like when she takes all 20 shots. Like seriously, that is pretty strong whiskey.

"Rivet, don't you take any more of those shots!" Clank lectured, "you know that is very strong whiskey you're taking there. 12 of those shots is like drinking a whole bottle of wine!"

"kiss my astroid!" Rivet scoffed as she took another shot, "It's not like you know how it feels to get drunk because you're just a robot!"

She then lets out a drunken giggle, which made Clank facepalm. Ratchet just took another sip of his mint water, he didn't know which side to take: It was Rivet or Clank. Clank did have a point, yes, but he didn't want to ruin Rivet's first party. Besides, she seems happy. Kinda.

"Face it *hic* Bolts!" Riv chuckled drunkenly As she more shots that were bouncing on her metal fingers, she was taking shots so fast that everyone, including Clank, lost count. "you're *hic* scrap metal! Kit is a sweet *hic* war-machine! And *hic* Ratchy here is a cute *hic* little *hic* sexy liger! Hehehehe~ *hic*"

Ratchet blushed at the comment, getting out of his seat and grabs Rivet by the metal arm before she took another shot.

"I think you had too much!" Ratchet snapped, blushing red like a tomato.

Rivet just turned to him, "go to Venus, you sugar-pie *hic* honey-bunch!" She snorted before sticking her tongue at him.

That made Ratch blush even more before pulling her off her seat. "You're drunk Rivet!" He said, putting two firm hands on her shoulders, "you had too much whiskey and now you're wasted."

Riv just gives him a look, her usual Rivet look but with a hint of drunk disbelief and...........Flirtiness.

She then puts a hand on his chest before coming even more closer to him and snuggles under his chin. Was she snuggling him like a lover?! Ok I get she's drunk, but that's a little too sus, don't you think?!

"Awwwww......are you two in loooooove?" Another drunk voice called, causing both lombaxes to perk up. "go away you *hic* astroid!" Rivet snapped drunkenly, "and mind your own *hic* scrappin' business!"

The One that spoke stood up march towards Ratchet and Rivet, glaring daggers at the drunk lombax. "what did you just say, raccoon?!" He threatened, "you wanna fight?!" Rivet steps towards the other drunk alien and gets into a fighting pose, "Bring it buddy! I think your friends would definitely celebrate YOUR DEFEAT!!!"
