Drunk!Alastor Headcanons
It would take a gooood few drinks before he starts getting drunk, and for the most part he holds himself pretty well at the early stages of intoxication
He is especially careful with how he drinks when he's in a group setting (probably doesn't drink at all.. bros ego)
But in a more private setting, with some close friends??
He's a lot more loose with himself and his drinks
I think drunk Al would be a "lot" more affectionate
I mean. "pour him a couple shots of rye and he turns into a kitten"
although the bar for that is pretty much UNDER the floor so it's more like regular affection in normal people terms im sure
initially HYPER! would definitely get a lot of that "pilot alastor" personality back
play some music he likes and 100% will dance every time
very argumentative as well, more annoying than usual, but also kind of all over the place with his words
starts talking a lot more in french, sometimes whole sentences
next stage is just completely mellowing out. still pretty talkative, but quieter and very still in his seat
other than his ears... which are very twitchy and active as they respond to pretty much every noise he hears
doesnt usually hiccup/burp or anything typical of a drunk, but he does lose some control of his voice and his radio static so it warbles up and down like someone is playing with the knobs on a radio
it becomes so overwhelming sometimes you can't even understand over the garble
he tends to start sharing thoughts and memories that he otherwise keeps locked away very tightly
and last stage, if hes VERY drunk
(which is rare i fear... he still has decent self control to stop before then)
which is why he only drinks around people who he is very close with and has probably already shared these bits of himself with before
which is ALSO why he doesnt tend to drink much unless the second party is also drinking because he hopes they'll be too drunk to remember anything of note lol
think he misses his momma? hates his dad? secretly enjoys the company of some of the hotel residents? favorite companion in hell? where'd he go for 7 years?
well... you gotta get him drunk enough to find that out. but good luck. he can drink like a sailor apparently so you'll probably pass out first
