Excerpt from In vino veritas, by D.F. Roeder
"Old man, have you seen Tenchi?" Ryouko asked the bleary-eyed
Katsuhito.
"Err, not recently. Problem?"
"I'm worried. The last time..." She trailed off.
"Mmmm." He nodded. "He shouldn't have gone out alone, I suppose.
Shall we have a look around?"
Ryouko smiled in relief. "Thanks." She had to step over a
comatose Aeka and Mihoshi. Kiyone was still awake, sitting in a
cushy chair and singing into a microphone in a language Ryouko
didn't recognize.
<Everything in this house has meaning for me, just like that old
karaoke machine,> Ryouko thought as she fondly remembered the
good times on the group's way to Jurai. She shook her head,
smiling, and followed Katsuhito out of her home, her expression
fading to worry.

Tenchi had dozed off, but he awoke with a jerk. Blinking, he
groggily brought the unopened sake bottle to his face, peering at
it. Nodding to himself, he peeled the foil seal off and took a
sip.
"BWRACK!!" He spit the liquid out. "Bleah. Jiichan was wrong: it
*doesn't* get better the more you drink." His stomach churned.
"Ohhh... No more, please."
