Ranma's New Fiancees: Getting Drinks [Episode 92296]

by Kender

Despite her reputation for drinking among the NERV personnel, most of them had known that if one wanted intelligent planning during an emergency situation, one went to Misato Katsuragi. She might have chugged beer in a way that would have made most frat boys proud, and her driving style left much to be desired, but she had a knack for anaylzing a situation and coming up with a plan to deal with it. It might be risky, strange or just plain jury-rigged, but when push came to shove, she was the one who could do the leading in an important situation.

Which was why she was currently in the boat, going through each and every corner in search of something to help them survive. She had known that they would need more than bad water, a fire and blankets to survive. What they would need would be food, something to drink, a first aid kit... Anything, so long as it would supply a basic need. She knew that they would have to get whatever they could out of the ruined boat, or they'd never get out of there...

"Ooooh! Look what I found!" she declared cheerfully as she pulled a set of sake bottles out of a small compartment on the boat. "This'll keep us plenty busy!"

Well, while she was a capable officer... she was still one who liked to get drunk.

"Finally!" Asuka declared as she took in the sight of the alcoholic beverage. "Something to drink that won't kill me!"

"Are you certain that you wish to drink that in this situation?" Rei asked her.

"Of course I do! I need to drink something and warm sake just might be good for the cold!"

"Just wanted to be sure."

"Much as I understand your concerns and share them," Kiyone commented, "I think it best if we did drink them. We can always look for a way to get fresh water a little later, but right now, this will allow us to get a bit warmer. Not to mention relax after what we've been through." She did after all enjoy drinking herself, and the amount that was there for each of them wasn't going to be enough to even dehydrate a cat enough to be a problem, nevermind a person.

Misato grinned madly and nodded at the other woman's words. Having a drink sounded good to her for more than one reason, including one that was sitting near the fire at the moment. Just enough to drink, some small talk, and a few nudges would be all it took to get her fiance in the right sort of mood. If they just happened to wind up together, then who could blame them? Besides, even if it just loosened things up, then they would have a nice time together, and what would be a better way to get to know each other than an after rescue drink. Getting a drink, finding a way to get closer to her fiance, and not having to go back to the red goo... What could be better?

That just happened to be similar to thoughts going through the minds of the other fiancees as well.

Not that any of them was about to jepordize their relationship with him at all. He wasn't just their ticket to staying around, he was a good guy to be around, and they were getting along really well.

Besides, trying to get him to unwind with them wasn't going to hurt, and might lead to something more.

So the sake was passed out while:
