[Fifty Second Cord]: [Accidental Audio] [About 11:50 pm December 31st]

[sakedrinking]

[whispering, silence, more whispering]

Nii-chan... nii-chan, wake up.

mmng... wu...?

It's almost New Years.

Nn... what time is it, Haku? Who's... is Lance with you?

uhuh! We know you can't have any alcohol, but we brought sparkling cider for you!

... I'unwanna wake up.

Aw... nii-chan, please? Just for a few minutes? I don't want you to miss a new year coming in!

[long pause]

Okay... you sure I can't have a beer instead?

No!

[laughs]It was worth a shot.

But it's my favorite holiday... [takes the glass]

Iee! [looking up at the clock excitedly] Are we going to count down together?

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

Eh ... I might pass on that one. But go ahead.

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

Pft. Stick in the mud.

[Haku is just pouting]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

[laughing slightly] If you keep arguing, you'll miss the countdown.

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

iee!

Okay, okay. Get ready.

[Both count down excitedly, yelling "Happy New Year!" when they get to zero. Haku hugs Greg, and Greg fires the popper in Lance's direction, hitting him in the face with confetti.]

*tries to dodge, utter fail, almost drops his glass*

[spluttering] Gre-eg!

[whoshotsherlock.livejournal.com]

[laughs] Sorry, man. Couldn't resist.

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

[grumbling, but tone is fondish] Last time I get in your line of fire.

*he runs a hand through his hair to shake it off, a la rain of confetti*

... Damn. Now it's in my drink.

[whoshotsherlock.livejournal.com]

Heh. Here. [hands him his drink] Really don't want it right now.

Are you feeling okay, nii-chan?

Just a bit tired is all.

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

Ehh, thanks. *takes glass*

You should go back to sleep. [dryly] God only knows what the wardens would say if they found out we woke you up for something as 'trivial' as New Years'.

[whoshotsherlock.livejournal.com]

[already has his eyes closed]

It's a hospital, not a damn prison, Lance...

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

Same difference.

Night, Greg.

[whoshotsherlock.livejournal.com]

[mutters something, but dozes off a few seconds after]

[hugs] G'night, nii-chan...
