Fine, he'll just leave that bit of conversation behind. No need to reinforce any ideas about being drunk. Instead, Malcolm felt a small pang for the man. The snapping he liked to do clearly was supposed to do something back wherever he was from. (Telekinetic abilities? He'd never really asked.) So while nothing happened here while sober, nothing happened while drunk, either. "You'll regret it in the morning, you know, all this drinking. You're going to wonder why you ever did something like that to yourself." Why was he trying to reason with a drunk man, again?
