azo-galactanned adj. Drunk and treated as a test: the evening's successive rounds have produced a measurable change in colour. Navtej was azo-galactanned, changing noticeably whenever another round was proposed. azoalbuminned adj. Drunk to the point where each successive round releases another colour of opinion into the room. Corrion became azoalbuminned and liberated a fresh view of the taxi service after every pint. azoalkaned adj. Drunk enough to join the evening’s simple chain of events: round, coat, door, home. Cristena went azoalkaned and followed the evening’s basic sequence without introducing any new steps. azoalkened adj. Drunk past the point of remaining in one conversational lane, with every exchange branching towards departure. Amellie was azoalkened by the third round, linking every plan to a different route home. azoarened adj. Drunk beyond the point where a familiar journey remains familiar, though its broad outline survives. Feloniz went azoarened and recognised the road home only by its general shape. azobenzened adj. Drunk in a way that makes the evening symmetrical: two people, two coats, and no agreement about the taxi. Balinda became azobenzened and arranged the two coats into a neat but unhelpful pattern. azobilirubinned adj. Drunk, with the result that the journey home acquires a red-violet complexion and a slightly investigative character. Macarius was azobilirubinned, examining the red-violet reflection in the taxi window all the way home. azobisformamided adj. Drunk to a degree that causes ordinary plans to foam, expand and escape their containers. Genavecia became azobisformamided and expanded a simple lift home into a group expedition. azobisisobutyronitriled adj. Drunk on the strength of a small initiating impulse, then expanding through the entire evening’s arrangements. Naomy became azobisisobutyronitriled when one suggestion for a taxi expanded into a full transport operation. azocaned adj. Drunk since last orders, and moving round the eight available points between bar, cloakroom and home. Ava-noor was azocaned, completing the same eight-point circuit between the bar and the cloakroom. azocarmined adj. Drunk by the third round, and distinctly red about the face whenever the journey home is mentioned. Zymiere became azocarmined by the third round and rejected every taxi on grounds of insufficient redness. azocarminiumed adj. Drunk by closing time, and reduced to the red, ceremonial business of collecting a coat and finding the door. Ajwa was azocarminiumed by closing time, treating the cloakroom ticket as a formal certificate of departure. azocaseined adj. Still drunk, and releasing another coloured account whenever the evening is pressed for details. Joron was still azocaseined, yielding a new version of the taxi arrangements whenever questioned. azochromophored adj. Too drunk to leave a room without carrying its colour into the next one. Yered was too azoc chromophored to leave the pub without naming the colour of every coat. azocined adj. Sufficiently drunk to make the journey home through several bends, none of them strictly necessary. Kazaria became azocined after last orders and took four unnecessary turns before finding the station. azocollagened adj. Slowed by drink to the rate at which an enzyme assay might politely proceed. Excel became azocollagened and required several minutes to identify the correct glass.
