"You don't? Maybe you've just not got drunk enough to realise you're drunk?"
Was Aleksi making any sense? Probably not. He was getting more trashed by the second as he was slugging cocktails down because it was happy hour. He loved the strong alcoholic ones the best.
Aleksi just stared at Dominic and shook his head before taking a gulp of his drink. What blowhards made drinking booze illegal? It didn't make sense to the younger man.
"Bred? You keep using that word like it's normal."
"I guess it is. Oh well---let's get some more drinks. What would you like now?"
Aleksi pulling over a cocktail menu from the bar showing all the two for one drinks you could buy during happy hour. It lasted from 10pm to around 3pm. Perfect for the two men enjoying one another's company.
"We've got most of the night to try the whole menu if you want."
"All of them sounds good to me. No, I don't think they have gin in, more tequila, vodka, rum and whiskey."
Aleksi knew Dominic didn't like the taste of gin so wouldn't be giving him those drinks. They could still get totally trashed on the other cocktails on the list, that being all of them.
"A lot of food was regulated because it was considered a crime to eat." Dominic had always thought that was a wierd military stance. "Alcohol, sweets, coffee, sugar, fruits."
Aleksi shrugged at what Dominic was saying because he'd never heard about such a restrictive place before. It was as if the whole place was one giant open prison that people lived in.
"No booze? Fuck. I couldn't live without my booze, sugar and freedom."
Aleksi wondered because Dominic just said fruit was illegal where he came from. Maybe he got it illegally somehow? The boy was guessing at the minute, as he pushed over some more cocktails for his new friend and himself.
"Let's get wrecked!"
The Finn laughed as he downed the cocktails one after the other.
"I haven't tried all of them." Dominic downed half of his drink while he was thinking. "At home, cherries, but I've tried pineapple, lemons, strawberries, papaya, mangos... hmmm.... some jams but I forgot what the fruit was in them."
"I'm not that much of a fruit person but I like fruity cocktails. As long as there is plenty of booze in them too."
Aleksi giggled drunkenly as he hadn't even realised he was sort of sliding against Dominic's side because he was trashed. Could he walk back to the taxi? Probably not. At this rate, Dominic would have to carry the young Finn back to his bunk.
"Papaya? Never had that one before. What's it like?"
"They had one on the menu." Dominic finished his drink and ordered one of those so they could try it. He did feel Aleksi leaning against him more heavily and slid his arm around the younger man. It was instinct because he was worried he might fall, and it felt good. He wasnt's expecting it to feel this good.
"It's soft and sweet. It reminds me of melon, I think." Dominic hadn't had a lot of sweet things or fruits in his life so he was struggling to find a good description.
Aleksi knew he was going to pass out drunk if he had any more drinks but that was normal for him anyway. Einar was always the one to pick him up when he'd gotten smashed. That, or the members of the Bandits went out searching for the young Finn.
"Melon? You reckon? All I taste now is booze."
The boy laughed and loved spending time with Aleksi, just leaning against the older man.
Dominic could feel Aleksi's body going slack. He hadn't drank and didn't really get drunk but he had seen people pass out since joining the tour.
"I can buy some if you want to try it." Dominic finished his drink and made sure the bill was paid for the bar. However, his arm is staying tightly around Aleksi for fear that he is going to fall.
Aleksi just wanted to stay with Dominic and do whatever because he was so drunk right now. He didn't want to fall but knew his legs might give way if he tried to walk fast right now.
Dominic was inherently adventurous as a person and all the new foods were of interest. He hadn't remembered mentioning melon juice but then Aleksi seemed very drunk.
"Maybe I should carry you?" He could feel the wobbly way that the younger man was walking. He might fall at this rate.
Aleksi snorted drunk giggles and wanted to kiss Dominic's naked body but knew this wasn't the right setting at all. Could he persuade the older man into bed? Not in this fucking state though. The Finn was totally out of it, pickled on booze.
"Uh, let me try to walk first, should be fine--"
The boy grinned and hopped off the bar stool awkwardly, near grabbing onto Dominic's arm as he felt his knees buckle.
"Try me?" Dominic asked. He'd heard that but only in the context of fighting. He didn't think that was what Aleksi meant but he couldn't think of any other context.
"You're going to fall." Dominic held him up and then easily lifted Aleksi into his arms. It was obvious the younger man was in no condition to walk back but Dominic could carry him without problem.
The Finn shot the other man a sly wink and just assumed he was messing about or teasing him, pretending to not know what he meant. Aleksi was so drunk he had no filter between his dirty thoughts and his trash mouth right now.
"Aw, you think so? Good thing I'm not wearing fucking high heels like my prissy brother then."
That got a high-pitched giggle out of him as he felt himself being lifted by those strong arms. It was hot.
Dominic really was lost. He had no idea what it meant but the winking and giggling confirmed it definitely wasn't the fighting context he was used to.
"It's a long walk back." And Aleksi almost fell getting off a stool. Dominic adjusted him a little so that Aleksi ended up with his head on his shoulder and cradled in his arms. Then Dominic started to walk out. It would be about a 20 or 30 minute walk back. It really wasn't that far.

"I know I am different than others." Dominic really was out of his element and had no idea that Aleksi was interested in him at all or teasing.

The boy was curious.
