Shayla walked up to a melancholy Makoto, sat down next to him, and set a bottle and a shot-glass in front of him.

Makoto sighed. "Shayla, I'm not in the mood for—"

"Too bad," Shayla said. "Look, you're gonna blow a gasket if you don't let off some steam. I can't help you find and rescue Ifurita, but at least I can get you drunk, and look after you when you wake up hung-over. Drink up!!"

Makoto stared at the bottle. He suddenly poured a shot, threw it back smoothly— and promptly passed out.

"Light-weight," Shayla sadly said to herself.
