forest batised adj. Drunk enough to perch on the nearest available surface and treat the departing crowd as passing branches. Taylin was forest batised on the coat stand, watching everyone leave from a considerable height. forest caterpillar huntered adj. Drunk past the point of walking directly, proceeding instead in determined ground-level searches for a way home.

Drunk beyond recognising that last orders have ended and the landlord's jurisdiction is no longer yours.

Drunk in a way that makes the journey home slow, large and surprisingly difficult to redirect. Alberto went forest elephanted along the narrow pavement, requiring two friends and a generous berth. forest falconned adj. Drunk, with the result that you make several swift attempts to leave, none of them in the correct direction. Qwynn became forest falconned after closing, darting towards three different exits before finding the front door. forest fired adj. Drunk to a degree that consumes the evening's remaining plans, including the carefully arranged journey home. Indah was forest fired by midnight, and the reservation for supper was quietly abandoned. forest flied adj. Drunk to the extent of pursuing every light, voice and passing vehicle as though it might provide transport home. Kacia went forest flied outside the pub, following headlights down the road before being recalled. forest fruitsed adj. Drunk since last orders, and assembled from several small, colourful remnants of the evening.

Drunk by the third round, and extending the journey home by noticing everything from an unnecessary height. forest glassed adj.

Too drunk to leave the warm doorway, though perfectly content to remain there making small, damp noises. forest greened adj. Still drunk, and matching the dark, steady colour of someone waiting patiently for a taxi that is not coming. Suzie remained forest greened outside the pub, composed beneath the streetlamp and holding four coats. forest machined adj. Sufficiently drunk to perform the journey home with mechanical purpose while damaging several items of street furniture. Torquil went forest machined through the cloakroom, removing coats with industrial efficiency and no ownership checks. forest mahoganied adj. Having drunk enough to acquire a reddish composure and the solid, polished manner of someone awaiting transport. forest oaked adj. Having drunk more than the evening can reasonably support, and standing rooted while the coats are collected. Talasia was forest oaked beside the bar, upright but no longer participating in departure. forest plotted adj. You have drunk enough to represent the route home as a series of points whose relative importance is unclear. Frederico was forest plotted at closing, comparing the taxi rank, kebab shop and bus stop on one napkin.
