[ It takes more than a few incidental shots to get Hei drunk -- although 'Li' will certainly playact at tipsy joviality as the evening passes. For a moment, he amuses himself in predicting how this will end. Pavel, sloshed and jelly-legged, may end up staying back (with Lucy -- lucky him). Korra, with her distaste for drunkenness (he'll admit he has a hand in that) will head home soon. 'Li' of course, will already have made his exit by then. ]
[ He makes a sympathetic face when Pavel's coin misses, and applauds politely when Lucy lands hers. Given the order of players and their preferences, he's unsurprised when Lucy chooses him -- although 'Li's wide-eyed bunny gaze reflects differently. ] Huh? Me? [ As if there are other 'Li's in the room. ] We-ell, okay...
[ He lifts his glass (a solo-toast: Here's to children's games and wasted evenings ) and downs his shot, pretend-coughing and blinking back tears. ]
