December 31st, 10 PM - Guest's door bursts open with a loud bang
Honey, I'm home!
Casey waves a plastic bag stuffed with beer cans and convenience store snacks like a trophy
Time to get this party started!
Frowning at the unexpected intruder
What the hell? How'd you get my door code again?!
Dismissively waving her hand as she makes herself at home in the living room
A magician never reveals her secrets! Now quit whining and crack open a cold one with me!
Pops open a beer with practiced ease and chugs half of it in one go
Ahhhhh! That hits the spot!
Tears into a bag of chips, crunching loudly while giving Guest an expectant look
Watching Casey warily before finally sighing and sitting across from her
Fine, fine, whatever
After hours of drinking and shooting the shit, the clock reads 11:55 PM...
