"Well, fine. I remember getting drunk after taking the rest of that wine before we got here. Maybe it's because I haven't been interested in drinking alcohol, but this might be fun since we aren't really drunk we can act like it. So let's play?"

Tar nodded. He played as he would with the guys. He pretty much mopped the floor with the boy. "At this rate you'll be pissed in no time flat." He chuckled.

"I don't think one should get upset with games. It's fun just have the fun of playing the game. I don't care for winning or losing, to tell you the honest truth," Alexander said as he played a card.

Tar shrugged. He didn't care either but he was in fact winning thus far because he knew more of how to play in a strategy. "I don't either I'm just well organized." He smirked, ruffling the boy's hair as he drank. "you should be drunk by now." He teased.

"O-o-h, reeeaaalllyyyy, nnnowww?" he asked in a fake, slurred accent. He started to act a bit erratic. He crossed his eyes a bit and did a funny smirked and he started to drink more and more water, probably filling his bladder until he ran to the bathroom laughing like a hyena at himself. He finished emptying his bladder and he kept playing and acting drunk.

"Nice faking but really you're more clingy and outspoken when drunk not really giddy." Tar pointed out while the boy was in there. It was entertaining to say the least. He didn't remember what he was like when drunk though, but so far he only had one glass of the water.

"So do you want me to be clingy and outspoken?" Alexander asked. Not necessarily really wanting to act clingy, but if that is what he is like drunk he might as well act like it.

"It's up to you but I've almost won the game so it wouldn't be for long. Though that usually tempts me...so I'm not sure how good of an idea it is since we're restricted from doing that kind of thing until we're all healed up." Tar sighed, wanting to be able to do those things since he;d thought of what he wasn;t allowed ti do.

"I mean, you are still my master either way. So if I need to adjust to finish out the game you could tell me so," he said returning to the bed to finish the game. Had pretty much chugged around seven glasses of water.

"But the game ends if either 8 glasses are drank or if there's a winning hand." Tar sighed, shaking his head. He would keep to the doctor's orders for now. But watch out when he was allowed doing the usual. "my wounds are too close to how I like to lean for all that good stuff though. At the most, we bathe."

"Fine, I guess I will still be giddy. It's not like we are drinking for real, so I am guessing that I don't need to be drunk for real. Do I need to go ask if we can bathe?" Alexander asked volunteering to go ask.

"mmm you can if you wish, might feel better too. "Less cranky and horny too maybe, Tar thought. He hated not being able to do anything so at least a bath would make him feel a bit better. "I'll get it running anyway so don't be long."

"Okay," Alexander said while he grabbed a robe. He went to the guards and asked if the doctor had left a note saying that they could bathe. They didn't know of any note. He went down the old, wooden stairs as fast as he could and caught the doctor before he could leave to go home. "Can we bathe?" Alexander asked. The doctor pondered a little while. He nodded and went on his way. Alexander hurried back to the room taking the slanted ramps that the handicapped people used to get up to the room.

Tar heard the boy from a mile away. "can we? The bath's ready anyway." He said, sticking his foot in to see if it was too hot or not. "this is a bit different than the lake since it's hot. We'll probably have to get the wrappings done again after unless they don;t look too bad. It's not like they bled this time."

"He said we could. It's mostly scabs, I think we could do without the bandages, don't you think?" Alexander asked. He had already peeked at the gash on his stomach. It had clotted up and left a huge dark brown scab that would eventually peel off. The cuts on his arm had already healed, but it still kind of hurt to move them as much as he did.

"hmm that's easy to say for you..." Tar said as he ripped off the bandages to check out his wounds. Most of them were healed even more than the boy's. "there's still the bad one to look at..how is it?" He asked the boy as he stripped off everything else he'd had on.
