Penn sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "I just know someone is going to get hurt and I don't want to do that to anyone. I fear there is no way around it, no matter which course I take." He said to Trout Latimer.

Alex pursed his lips for a moment at the heavy talk. "Thats it. We're all gonna take a shot together." He nodded as he hopped up and over his chair, walking and rustling up enough shot glasses for everyone. He sat them down on the table and he made a dash for his room. It took him only a minute to return with a bottle and made a bee line for the kitchen. It took him a few minutes but he returned with a large cup of green liquid and poured a shot into each glass.
"We all kinda need this.. Especially for the next few days.. We're in this together and we need to be ready for it."
With that he tipped his shot back and coughed a bit, shaking his head.

Dean had been sitting contentedly for a bit, not really having much to contribute to the conversation and feeling more and more grateful for his own situation. He wouldn't want to switch places with some of these guys.
"YES!" He called out when Alex said they would be doing shots. When he came back with a green liquid Dean beamed. "Damn! Is that absinthe?!" He asked, moving forward to pick up a glass. He took the shot just after Alex, and setting the glass back down with a chink. "WOO!" He exclaimed.

"Noooo." Blake grumbled playfully at Parker. "I can take my own ass to bed." He chuckled. He glanced up when Alex said they were taking shots, and then sat up a little straighter. He caught sight of the green bottle. "I haven't had that since highschool." He chuckled. He reached over and patted Parker Domino on his chest. "That'll put some hair on your chest buddy." He snickered. He tossed the blanket up and threw his legs over the side of the couch. Sitting up now he reached for his own shot. "Production is going to have to get another Doctor on set, this one's going of the clock." He grinned. He took the shot, throwing his head back and swallowed. He made a face and covered his mouth to cough as his throat burned. "And Now I remember why I haven't had absinthe since high school." He said. His voice a little hoarse he coughed again.

Penn smiled as Alex decided to lighten to mood and honestly he was grateful. He could mull over all these conflicting thoughts on his own time. Penn took a shot glass and looked at it's contents suspiciously, with a half smile.

Alex laughed at the guys taking the shots. He tossed himself back into the chair once more, crossing one leg over the other. "Welcome to my paradise. Yes it is Absinthe and yes.. This shit is strong." He shook his head and tossed a glance to Penn. "Bottoms up. Trust me it helps ya think a little straighter. We all need to forget our woes tonight and get our heads in the game."
He looked over at Blake "Good man! Sometimes a little green is all it takes to clear the field."

Percy sniffed the green liquid and tried to hide making a face, "Well if you think this going to help me think straighter, I clearly need it," he said before downing the shot, coughing when it burned his throat, "Woah okkkk... so when does the clarity of the heart start? I'm ready for that," Percy said.

Penn saw Percy take his shot and chuckled before setting his glass down. "Not a big drinker to be honest, I rarely have anything stronger than beer. I'm not sure...my body could handle this." He said, still chuckling. "I think I'm good."

Alex sniffed a little bit and lightly tapped Blade on the shoulder. "..Do you smell that.." He squinted his eyes and sniffed a few more times. "...It smells like responsibility." He narrowed his eyes further at Hugh. "Responsible." He huffed a little before laughing and looking at Parcy. "Rule one. Dont listen to Alex... This will just make ya relax."

"You sir, are a bonafide genius!" Parker wholeheartedly told Alex before downing the shot, "Do I have green fairy wings yet or do I need another shot?"
"Blake, if absinthe could give me some chest hair, I'd have some already but no, I still happen to look like a well moisturized baby under this shirt." He patted the scruff on his face, "And this is literally all that will grow... so if anyone runs out of beard oil, I don't have any."

Blake set his shot down and leaned back looking at Alex and then over at Hugh. "Hey, if it's not me being the responsible one than someone else has to do it." He said winking at Penn, and giving him a grin. He then looked over at Parker, reaching over to pinch his cheek. "My poor baby." He said in a baby voice. "Absinthe gave me my chest hair, maybe you just need to try something else." He said grinning.
He looked back to Penn, "Well Penn its a crime to let that shot go to waste, so I'll take one for the team. Hand it over." He chuckled. He held his hand out to take the shot from him. "I'm going to sleep like a baby tonight." He said.

Penn chuckled and gladly handed his glass over to Blake Carson. "Have at it, Blake." He said with a grin, not at all bothered by Alex Knight's teasing. He knew that if he partook he would only end up feeling muddled and probably end up with a headache by tomorrow morning, rather than it helping to clear his head or help him sleep. He didn't want to take the risk.

"You can join the hairless chest club Parker. I'd look fucking weird with chest hair so I am damn glad theres like none." He laughed a little bit sinking into the couch, pouring himself another shot from the cup and downing it. "So take like four of these and resist the urge to unload your guts on the sink.. You'll get your wings." He laughed
"Blakey boy you look like you need that." He chuckled and looked at Penn. "Honestly probably a good idea if you aren't a heavy drinker in hind sight... I do have some whiskey that Val sent me with if you'd like a shot." He offered a friendly smile.
