[She'd have to ask him what 'kanpai' meant later, but she could guess - she knew a few weebs from school.
After taking a sip from her sangria and laughing a little at her head swimming, she finally set down the alcohol and obeyed her body begging her to stop.]
That's all the booze I can handle. Let's get a huge plate of cheesy nachos!
[His own brain was begging a whole drink and a half ago, so by the time he was done he sort of wanted to find a table and sleep under it. But no... he would endure...!! Pochita was strong and so was he. Chainsaw Man (Man? Dog? He remembered talking with Octavia about a name but thinking was hard right now) wasn't going down without a fight!]
"Nah-choze"~ I have no idea what those are, but I'm so fuckin' in, Poppy! Lemme at 'em!
Ohh, I think you'll like them! They're tortilla chips covered in cheese and all kinds of toppings! I loooove them with olives and bell peppers, maybe a little chili and sour cream!
[There is absolutely no wait time before that plate is summoned right in front of them, the proportions truly monstrous.]
[So it wasn't something you used utensils for. It was like nigiri! The chips were scoops for the mix of toppings and eaten as a whole thing. Okay, easy!
He would try that too, and try to get as many of the toppings as he could. But-]
Heheh... oh, shit-! My little chip ship's losin' integrity!
[You had to be quick before the chips got too heavy or soggy and broke! Fortunately he used another chip for balance before helping himself to his first big bite of nachos.
Right. Man... ya wouldn't believe the number of assholes I was in fights with goin' on n' on about how my dreams are 'too simple'. I mean, I beat 'em every time, my dream's legit, but it gets so freakin' annoying after a while.
[He went for more.]
This right here? Dream shit. I met somebody and they don't think I'm too weird to hang out with. Dream shit. Who needs piles of riches or bein' some kinda King if you get to sleep where ya don't get rained on and get to chow down on nachos with somebody that's cool as fuck and helps kids?
[Whew! Was it the booze making the compliments hit so hard? Poppy smiles as she's munching on a chip, ignoring how burning hot her face was.]
Those people sound like they were assholes. They must've just been mad you were beating them. Or maybe they were feeling insecure about their own dreams and goals.
Hahahaaah, some were so pissed. Oh man, I got... I got so many stories...
[He leaned back and thought, brought a thumb to his tongue and lap off a bit of salt from the chips. After, he leaned closer, shielded his snout at one side with a hand. Booze was making him really talky.]
Thing is, I dunno if I'm allowed to tell some of 'em...
[She was nice to him, and he wasn't lying when he said she was cool. This was something that he knew she'd keep hush-hush. He looked left, looked right, and decided that Lucifer only said not to fuck around with the Purge. This had nothing to do with that whole thing...]
Heheh... I'm a superhero. "Bounty hunting" is just code...
I've been able to jump from building to building, which is super fun, but I'm also strong enough to throw cars. But the big thing, the one signature thing...
Yeah, you get me! I'm surprised the name wasn't taken, so I snatched that sucker up. It would'a been any old movie title or somethin', but I remembered old Leatherface and it was my lightbulb moment.
[Then, he giggled.]
Holy shit, I think I'm drunk. That's not real hero-like, huh?? I should... I should call somebody...
Wait... wait, but I gotta make sure you're okay...!
[A salute! Getting up and- whoa. whoa whoa. Okay... let's find that water and... and his ride. C'mon, Pochita, you can take a little alcohol, right? Devils are tough!
He checked for the friend of hers, and felt a lot better about parting ways. Now where the heck was his buddy? He hoped they weren't lost in the face-sucking sauce...]

Get some water too! Getting drunk is really fun at parties, but water's gonna help so you're not too sick in the morning.
