One night, Hall decided to try to get Brown Bess drunk…
When Bess drank his usual tea, he blinks at the changed taste. 'It's good…' he hums as he drinks more.
After a few more cups, Bess was red-faced and staggering a bit. Napoleon walks in with a glass of wine with Rapp right behind with the bottle of said wine, and looks at Bess then at Hall…
"What's going on?" Napoleon asks.
"You…need to be more considerate, Your Majesty!" Bess suddenly yells, "Be more considerate towards your subordinates, especially Rapp!"
"Uh…" both Napoleon and Rapp are speechless.
"Do you need me to lecture you more?" Bess asks, face still red as he downs another cup of tea.
"Are you a mom now?" Napoleon asks sarcastically as he downs his glass of wine.
"No…I'm worse," Bess replies as he downs another cup.
"Is he drunk?" Rapp asks Hall, who looks at him innocently.
Hall smiles as he shakes his head, "I just put brandy in his tea… I've no idea he was a lightweight."
After, Bess gets up and off somewhere before coming back with an American flag, Kentucky, Springfield, Enfield, Charleville, and Dreyse in tow.
"What're you doing with that, Brown?! Give it back!" Kentucky yells.
"No~! I hav'ta…destroy this," Bess glares as he finds a random lighter and proceeds to burn that damn flag.
"Noooooo….!" Kentucky yells, mourning his beloved flag as Springfield tries to comfort him.
"Um…Bess-kun…calm down," Charleville tries to reason with Bess.
After the flag was burned to ashes, Bess looks at Charleville and yells, "You damn frog! I hate you!" as he throws his teacup at Charleville with stunning accuracy. Good thing Charleville dodged in time.
"Enfield!"
"Hai, Senpai?!" Enfield startles.
"Get me more tea!" Bess orders.
Enfield nods, not wanting to be at the other end of Bess' rage. After getting a new teacup, Enfield got Bess another cup of tea while Bess poured brandy into it…before downing it.
"Thank you, mate," Bess says.
"Senpai!" Enfield's eyes sparkled.
"Dreyse!" Bess yells as he grips Dreyse's shoulders, "You need to care about yourself more~…don't try to sacrifice yourself for me again…OK?"
Dreyse nods, "Yeah…"
"Good…" Bess mumbles as he falls asleep, gripping Dreyse tightly.
"Dreyse…can you put Bess to bed?" Rapp asks.
Dreyse nods as he lifts Bess over his shoulder, "OK…" as he carries Bess to bed.
The next day…
Bess wakes up with a headache, "Ugh…what happened last night?"
Hall simply smiles as he gives Bess some breakfast and a good hangover cure, not bothering to tell him what happened last night when he was drunk.
Everyone in the base all agree: Brown Bess is to never get drunk, or even drink again… Ever.
When they do tell Bess about his drunken antics, Bess could only blush, "Sorry…"
"It's OK. You were drunk and didn't know what you were doing," Springfield smiles.
"You owe me a new flag though!" Kentucky complains.
"I'm not sorry for that," Bess smirks.
"Why you…!" They get into a fight, and all is right again.
