Fun with Booze

Phande: Quit flirting with my meat shield, you overgrown steak! That's not the type of hit she's supposed to be taking!

Sierune: *face-palm!*

Alternate Title: Sierune discovers why Phande should NEVER EVER, EVER drink (Ever)

~*~

Now, for those that don't play World of Warcraft, the relationship between tank (AKA meat shield) and healer is almost symbiotic. A meat shield - er, tank - isn't terribly scary alone. They can soak up damage like nobodies business, but they still die eventually as their health bar drops. A heal-bot, like my walking corpse of a priest up there, is downright laughable when they try to kill things. At the moment it takes Phande 20 minutes to smite her way out of a wet paper bag.

When looking for groups it's generally really hard to find a tank, or a healer, or occasionally both. If you happen to have both the tank and a healer it's really easy to pick up some damage dealing classes and go rip apart a dungeon. So, Sierune and Phande usually travel together. Two halves of the triad makes finding dungeon groups reeeeally easy.

Sierune's player makes a joke of growling at any guy she sees flirting with Phande. ( She's a feral druid, meaning she spends a lot of time wandering around as a giant bear... So yeah... Some twitchiness about "her" healer - as healers are fairly rare - is expected) Phande however, generally doesn't usually much care when Sierune gets going about her "Bulls in Skirts". ( Male caster classes usually end up in skirts for armor )

However, it appears Phande's a wee bit... shall we say... territorial? while drunk. XD It probably didn't help that Phande is likely all of 90 pounds soaking wet, and she's been trying to keep up with Sierune... ( Female tauren are 7ft tall and have the mass to go with it.) *amused*

... Just don't ask me how a walking corpse gets drunk, I really don't know. She doesn't even have a stomach any more. Then again, she's walking around by pure force of will, maybe she willed herself drunk? XD Who knows.

Anyway, the idea of my walking corpse threatening to whack a 8ft tall wall of muscle over the head with her staff makes me giggle. As drunk as she is, she'd do it too. As you can imagine, a priest with a staff is not a terribly dangerous opponent. Especially considering she's clinging to the bar just to remain upright.

Thankfully said Tauren shaman seems to have a pretty mild temper, so Phande may not end up smooshed all over the floor.
