A strange sensation suddenly shot up Paul's body. As if he couldn't stand up straight. Little did he know that having his tail taped up was now affecting his balance. He pitched forward, shooting a hand up to his hat to make sure his ears stayed hidden.
"HahahahaHA!" The man laughed at him. "You that drunk dude?"
Paul smiled as he got shakily to his feet. "I guess so." As he stood he could feel his tail straining against the bandages, as if it wanted to wave behind him. He had a strong urge to let it loose.
"Hey more beer!" The man exclaimed. He grabbed a mug and quickly downed it. "Hahahahaw! I just noticed your hat. It's so funny looking."
Paul rose a hand to the hat nervously, feeling his ears bent up into the beanie. The longer he kept it on, the more uncomfortable it got. He wanted to let his ears out into the free air where they should be....wait what? He shook his head of the thought. A beer was pushed towards him, and he grabbed it without question.
Meanwhile the man was continuing to drink.
