Party Rock Anthem only it's played on kazoos
[Oscar is a practiced master at Coping (tm) in the face of things he would prefer not to address in any sort of healthy or rational manner. After the events of yesterday, he's somehow getting the feeling that he isn't the only one, which means that in his mind there is only one thing to do: this translates to yet another Walmart booze heist (even larger than the original), a few side trips to amass snacks because RIP his kitchen, and some haphazardly erected decorations in one of the spare rooms to try to at least give off something of a celebratory atmosphere... but let's be real here, this is just Misery x CPR x Reese's Puffs + alcohol.
Sunday morning will find handwritten notes tucked under everyone's doors inviting them to a party that evening, snacks and drinks (that particular word underlined a couple of times, just in case people didn't pick up on the meaning of "party") provided gratis.
There's alcohol, there's soda for the minors, there's plenty of junk food to eat, and there are a whole bunch of other people who are also Going Through It. What better recipe for a party could you ask for?
... don't answer that.]

Yeah, and you both seemed pretty into it.

An' what gave you that idea?

[But he cuts himself off with a beleaguered sigh. Is there really any point to denying it when the answer will be very obvious when he's not in their room tonight?]
All right, all right, yeah, I'm probably not comin' back to the room for a while. That answer your question?

[ But since he can't help being a little shit in this situation: ]
Am I gonna have to disappoint my sisters now?

[Oscar, having not overheard Lark and Basilio earlier:]

That's... takin' things a little far for right now.
[Right now he's drunk and he just really wants to kiss Basilio again... and do a lot more than that, but. Feelings? What are feelings? We bury those things where no one else can find them.]
no subject
Well, I'm still happy for both of you.

[It's weird. This whole thing is weird and complicated but at the same time he doesn't hate it, and that's saying a lot coming from someone whose typical method of dealing with his emotions is trying to drink them away.]
