"When I said 'Atlesian Brandy', I meant several kinds of Atlesian brandy. I was thinking...all of them." he said, picking up a bottle and examining it. "Besides, it's only a tasting. This stuff's light enough that I could down an entire bottle in less than 30 seconds."

Placing the bottle down, he picked up a slightly larger one off the counter. "Well, it's light for me. Maybe being able to fit in the bottle makes you a bit more of a lightweight?" he said with a smirk, taking the opportunity for another jab at her height.

In response to his joke on her height, the rabbit faunus shot him a quick glare, though she didn't say anything in response. At this point, she expected such insults, and she knew fully well that she could get back at him.

"Back up for a sec?" Vivian raised an eyebrow. "A whole bottle? I'm calling bullshit on that one." As she looked at the different bottles of his supposedly good alcohol, she couldn't help but wonder just how accurate his claim was. In all honesty, it seemed plausible, and she was definitely playing up her disbelief of it. Mostly because she wanted to see if she could convince him to actually try and do that with her around. Even if it might not be the safest thing a friend could encourage one to do, Vivian didn't care a whole lot; it would be entertaining. What else could one ask for?

Looking over at Michael, she gave him a smirk of slight suspicion and curiosity. "Come on, prove it."

Michael set the bottle back down on the counter. "Now, you see, there's two problems with that. First off, I actually need to taste the brandy. It'd be kind of a dick move if I just slammed it all. Secondly, I don't do dares, I take bets." he said, moving over to a lower cabinet. Opening it revealed a small metal box with a glass front, a miniature wine cellar. Michael pulled out a bottle of roughly equal size to the large bottle he had previously and set it near the sink.

Turning back with a smirk, he leaned against the counter. "So, shortcake, what's your offer?" he asked, wanting to see what she'll bet him.

"Well," Vivian hopped up to sit next to the bottles on the counter, impolitely assuming that he wouldn't really mind as she continued speaking, "I miiight have to pass on that. Because, like, there's a good chance you could actually be for real. You're a giant, after all. Knowing that, I could just be setting myself up to lose." She shrugged. "Still... I do want to see you try it." Leaning forward, she supported herself by placing her hands on the edge of the counter, making sure not to grip too hard to avoid cracking it. Maybe it wasn't the best place to sit, but it let her be closer to his level, meaning that she didn't have to constantly be looking up just to see him. Less strain on the neck was always preferable. "Though, if you have any ideas for a good bet that won't be too shitty for either of us to lose, I'm all ears." As if to reinforce what she had said, one of her faunus ears twitched slightly.

Michael pulled the top off the bottle, a loud pop ringing throughout the kitchen area. Leaning against the opposite counter, Michael examined the bottle in his hands briefly before replying. "How about, rather than taking the time and effort to figure it out now. I just do it, and we'll figure out what happens when you lose. How's that sound, short stack?" he said, putting on his biggest, smuggest grin.

Truthfully, he had never drank this much at one time. It was less of the issue of holding his liquor and more of if he could drink an entire bottle in under 30 seconds. He figured he could, he's just never had the reason to try before now.

"Wow. Somebody's confident." Noting his cocky smile, she couldn't help but roll her eyes a little. "That sounds totally dumb, actually. Why would I want to let you make the conditions to a bet after I've already lost?" Vivian didn't seem as amused anymore after the short jokes, though she was still keen on getting him to do it. Hopefully, with minimal repercussions on her end. "You obviously think you can do it, so maybe you should just go ahead and chug it. If you succeed, I'll drink too." She was aware that it didn't sound like much of a bet, given away by her chuckling. "I don't do it often, so you should be glad," she finished with a rather sarcastic tone.

Michael was rather amused by this exchange. "So, you're telling em that if I win the bet, I have the privilege of letting you drink my alcohol? No, no, no. That's not how betting works. How about this: You win, you can pick the stipulation afterwards. I win...hmm...you have to wear a costume I pick out? I'll let you veto, but I get to pick. Deal?" he said, not giving up that easily. The bottle swirled in his hand, Michael catching the smell of the alcohol as it moves past his nose.

"... You never really struck me as a guy that would be into dress-up, Mike." Folding her metal arms together, Vivian couldn't help but smirk a little at his proposal. In reality, it couldn't be that bad, could it? Putting on a stupid costume for a bit might be worth it in order to watch someone destroy a bottle of liquor, because that isn't exactly something you get to see everyday. Also, for all she knew, it could actually end up being a decent outfit. She certainly wasn't counting on that last part, but she did always try to look at the bright side of things. "But, I suppose that's doable." While she kept her hand resting on her arm, she did lift one finger. "However, there needs to be more rules to this. First, I don't want to do it today. As I don't trust you to not try and make me wear something really weird when you're drunk. And, if I do win, then it's the same deal. I'll pick out an outfit for you to wear." She paused for a moment, pursing her lips as she attempted to think of some more conditions. "Hmmm... Also, I'm not gonna wear any sort of servant outfit. 'Cause that's, like, demeaning and racist, and stuff."

"Oh please. Do you really think I need another brick through my window? I'll agree to these terms, you've got yourself a deal." he said, pulling out his scroll and propping it up against one of the bottles. Grasping the opened bottle in his hand, he set a timer for 30 seconds and took a few deep breaths. He simultaneously pressed the button and tilted the bottle back, starting to drink as quickly as possible.

At this point, Vivian was mostly expecting that he'd be able to do it, so once she saw that he was taking it down quite skillfully she couldn't help but grin. In the past, she had met some avid drinkers, but none of them would likely agree to such a challenge. That was fair, considering that the average person would be knocked out by it, but considering Michael's size, he could most likely pull it off. She couldn't help but wonder just how badly this was going to affect him. Seeing how quickly he had once recovered from a square punch from her fist to the face, she figured that this couldn't hurt him too badly. Of course, she had no idea how that really worked, but it seemed like a safe assumption.

Michael stopped from his gushing for only a second in order to take a breath. Quickly bringing the bottle back to his lips, the liquid steadily drained from the opaque bottle as the seconds counted down. It was down to the wire as Michael slammed down the rest of the liquor as the clock hit 2 seconds. He held the bottle upside down and shook it, the last drop exiting the bottle before the time was up. "And THAT is how you win a bet." Michael proclaimed, immediately coughing up a storm after drinking that much at once.

Stumbling back and hitting the counter, Michael quickly realized why this was something most people cannot do. The burning sensation in his throat was constant and merciless, but the alcohol slowly dulled that feeling. He set the bottle down on the counter behind him, standing up fully while breathing heavily.

Vivian felt a small flicker of hope as he took a break, though that quickly faded as he started on the bottle again. As entertaining as this was so far, it'd still be great if he didn't make the time that he had set. Sadly, it didn't appear that that would end up being the case.

Once he had finished it off, she was conflicted in how she was supposed to feel, but the smile didn't leave her face. Sighing a little, she started to clap, though it really just sounded like metal banging together until she stopped. "That's what I figured would happen. How's that feel?"

Michael responded with a guttural sound somewhere between a groan and a yell. "Not great. Not great at all." he said, his stomach not liking the fact that he just drank an entire bottle. Thankfully, his pain tolerance was rather high, but this was not a fun time to be a giant.

Steadying himself with a hand against the countertop, Michael took a long, deep breath and tried to relax. "And now, I get to spend the next few days figuring out what to get you. What size are you, children's medium?" he said, laughing for a brief second before clutching his stomach and grimacing.

"Oh, shut up. Do remember that I can still manage to punch you in the face, even if you are as tall as a tree." While she did retort, Vivian could hardly take his insult seriously, seeing as he was immediately in pain after he was finished. As far as she was concerned, he deserved it.

Kicking off her shoes, she pulled her legs up on the counter to sit cross-legged, assuming once again that he wouldn't mind. Now that he had some alcohol in him, she figured that the chances of that would be even lesser. Not that she really cared about whether or not it was polite, as it didn't even cross her mind. "So, you've had your fun now, and you're probably going to be drunk in a couple of minutes. Think I could get a glass?"

After straightening himself up, his stomach seemed to calm down. "Yes, we do still need to try the brandy." he said, fetching two glasses from an overhead cabinet. He grabbed two clear spheres of ice from the freezer, placing one in each glass. Filling both glasses with a small clear bottle of chestnut brown liquid, he set one down next to Vivian and leaned against the counter next to her. "Cheers." he said, holding his glass out toward her.
