A drunk Kael was heavy to assist, but a pretending to be "too drunk," Kael was heavier.

He was surely having a great time throwing his weight on me as we walked down the corridor to our room while singing the same song he had sung to me the last time he was drunk.

"And it's you and me and all of the people. And I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off of you." He sang, off-tune of course, but I loved it more.

He chuckled heartily as we entered our bedroom. "I didn't see anything wrong with what I did. Besides, my wife seems to like it. And I'm here to do as you please."
