Billy Batson's Big Birthday Bash

[sayshazam]

If it had been anyone else Billy totally would have begged off hanging out with them after work that night. He had school the next day and was a little tired but he'd have to be mostly dead before he cancelled on his girlfriend. Even then he'd probably do his best to make it to her, especially with everything she was going through right now. She'd told him to just let himself into her place, which gave him a good idea of how she was feeling.

Sliding off Naga as he arrived at her apartment building he sent the polar bear dog off to do whatever it did when not hanging around with Billy. Eat fish and bother Ellie, probably. Izzy had a lot of black clothes and it turned out polar bear dog fur was kind of a pain to get off of fabric so he figured .

Heading up to her apartment he fought back a yawn as he adjusted his backpack. It wasn't even that late but maybe he could just crash at Izzy's place tonight and head straight to school from here. It would definitely save him some time.

Testing the door he found it unlocked and pushed it open. Anyone else he would have definitely said something about how dangerous it was but if someone broke into Izzy's apartment to rob her then they were totally the ones in danger.

"Babe, you in?" he called out, frowning when the lights weren't on. That didn't seem like a great thing, if she was here with the lights off. "I brought some food from work if you're hungry..."

[ooc: Tag Billy by shouting "surprise" at him or hit him up after that while he's wandering around the party. Feel free to tag each other too.]

"Chocolate," Ellie said, thinking back. "It wasn't even that much of it, it was just- I mean, holy shit, I'd heard about chocolate but I didn't know."

Although it hadn't been a small amount, either.

Billy tried to imagine eating so much chocolate that it made you sick. Well, he didn't have to imagine that hard because there'd been the one year he'd stolen a bunch of Halloween candy but that had been a lot of chocolate.

"And how come you had to think about that. How many times have you puked because you ate too many sweets?"

"Of all the times I puked, it wasn't ever too many anything," Ellie agreed. Too many was an utterly foreign concept. Bad food, sure, but never just too much of it.

"I drank too much beer once," Billy confessed. It wasn't like a big deal or anything because high school kids got drunk all the time. But Billy felt like he should have known better with how much alcoholism he'd seen while living on the streets. "Like... sweet look at all this beer, everyone wants it so it much be awesome, right? It didn't even get through a whole can before I puked because it was so gross. So gross."

"Alcohol we had," Ellie said. "I mean, not much. And when we left the Quarantine Zone it was mostly just for putting on injuries. But I guess at least I knew liquor already. Beer, though... I guess less people kept it?"
