What had he once told himself? Exactly. No drinking games with the elf. For the elf was beyond him. He could stay sober for a long, long while. Whereas Kíli knew he could not. And what had his stubbornness lead him to in the end? Exactly. He had started a drinking game. It was just all for fun at first. Just to see how much he could indulge before he knew when to stop. But even when he felt he needed to stop, he had stubbornly continued on. And here he was now, merrily singing a song of his people and trying to get the elven prince to sing along, even if it was not a song he was accustomed with. Surely the young dwarven prince would soon keel over, for he had drank far too much already. "C'm'n, Leg'las! Jooooinnn. Sho'm we can merrily.. Merry make.. merry..." and he cut himself off, merely giving a hearty laugh at the speech that wished not to listen to his mind anymore.
