Giggling. Always with the infernal giggling. Equius stared, unamused, at the blatantly drunk women. At least they weren't singing any more. Who even puts bottles of 'beer' on a wall, anyway? It was not logical, and frankly kind of stupid.
All had been going well for the two- Roxy and Rose, for those curious- up until they had gotten down to 70. Then the /giggling/ had started. It was pathetic. Their lips could literally not form the next number. Equius had approached them, demanding to know what this was about, only to receive another bout.
He stood for a few seconds, until finally one of them manage to stutter out "S-sixty niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine! Hahahaha!" The expression on Equius' face turned to one of disgust. Did humans have some sort of... joke? Centering around this number? Or was it some weird exclusionary where the mere number itself triggered laughter? It was /of the highest importance/ that he must find out.
Approaching Dave, he paused for a moment before just blurting the number in itself, hoping to trigger the random laughing reaction. "Si%ty nine." It was nearly impossible to tell what the guy was thinking behind those glasses, but he too burst into laughter. "what. what the actual fuck man"
"Language! And I demand that you e%plain to me why you are laughing!" He tried to keep some semblance of control over the situation, clenching his fists. Dave did not laugh as long as the drunk women, he just put his palm to his face. Of course he wouldn't know... "Okay. listen close."
About 5 minutes later, a very blue faced Equius issued a formal apology to the man who had just explained to him what exactly he had said. "However, you are disgusting people." And removed himself from the situation, sitting down on the ground. Hmm. Well, he was trying to be more open to trying new things... and it didn't seem to be dangerous...
That is why, when Nepeta opened the door to his room, she found him naked and rapidly rolling around in a circle like a dog chasing it's own tale.
This was never spoken of again.
