WHO: Emma Swan & Tinkerbell
WHEN: Following Tink's Text
WHERE: Emma's place
WHAT: Tink needs a friend, Emma has three; Jim, Jack and Jose.
WARNINGS: Mild: Drinking, potential language?.
STATUS: In Progress

When Tink had asked for a distraction, Emma wasn't entirely sure just what kind was needed. Until the issue of staying where she was and fights with boyfriends came up and then it was decided. Rather than have anyone worry about where they'd spend the night or how they'd get anywhere, Emma figured she could stock up on some booze and just keep Tink somewhere safe and get plastered.

Emma didn't know a lot about relationship issues, not really. She'd avoided a lot of those for a long time. But she knew that the job of a girlfriend when there were troubles in relationships was to handle the alcohol and venting. And she could totally do that. She had plenty stashed for them, chips to soak it up and water to hydrate later.

All she needed now was a certain fairy that was feeling down. Heading over to Tink's place to pick her up, her little bug chugging along as good as ever, Emma was almost record time get there. She had no problem driving out and driving back to help out.

After all, what were friends for?

It was truly a tried and tested method. If it wasn't wine and chips then it was beer and nuts or spirits and really greasy food. They all did the trick just right. Drunk enough not to care, not so drunk to the puking stage. Emma hated that stage.

"Yeah, you get used to a lot of things." On the whole, Emma didn't notice it that much. Maybe when they were in the fields, maybe overnight in the stables, but on the whole it was just another thing that you go used to and stopped really noticing. "And honestly, I wouldn't swap it for anything in the world."

"That's amazing. I'm glad you've got a job that you love so much." Tink gave Emma a smile. It was genuine. Her mind was off the thing she wanted to take it off of. Being around a new friend and talking about whatever made things seem to melt away. "It makes life just a little easier when we're doing things that we love to do with people we're crazy about." She added.

Then she sipped again. Her words were starting to slur just a little.

"So, Netflix? What are we watching? I forgot." The smile went a bit sheepish.

"Considering the dominoes of jobs I've had before, yes, I'm glad it's one I like now." Emma had done just about everything she could at least once. She wasn't trained for a lot, so jobs that required degrees or specific knowledge on a certain thing, trades really, they were all out. But she picked up those other jobs fairly quickly, when all she needed to be was willing to deal with crap -literally in one case.

Emma was pacing herself a little better than Tink. For one thing Emma had a few more reasons to drink over the last few years, so she at least had a decent tolerance built up, but Tink was the one that needed to just chill out and get blitzed, so Emma wanted to be in enough control to take care of the girl.

"How about we launch it onto a comedy show? Modern Family? We'll just roll through the episodes that play." And if they half pay attention or miss it all entirely, not a big deal.

	"Modern family it is." Tink said, settling back on the sofa. She was glad for the company, glad for the drink, and glad for a reason to turn her brain off. Emma was turning out to be a trusted friend, and Tink was thankful to have her around. "Thanks, Emma. I really needed this." (Reply to this) (Parent)
