If I was in a position of authority over this gal I wouldn't risk her injuring herself. If she's going to be under constant supervision until she sobers up I'll relax.
My god...he's gonna do the whole speech.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I don't think Hil is in a position of authority over her. She's a grad student, yes? Hil is just being a good citizen.
Ugh. I feel for the girl even if I think she acted stupidly.

She made a bet that she could drink as much as this other guy, proportional to weight, which meant she had two for every three he had.

Yeah, she's under constant supervision. A bunch of her friends are with her -- I had some stuff to do at home, so I left once I was sure she was OK. I'm not in any position of authority over her -- she a classmate, and it's my office that she happened to stumble into. But she's better now -- awake, and talking, and at least sort of making sense, and was able to answer a bunch of questions that people asked her, so I think she's doing OK. She'll have one hell of a hangover, especially if she keeps refusing to have any liquids, but she'll be OK.

So I've heard.

Has she never been drunk before?
She says she's never been this drunk in America before, which might mean she's been this drunk in China, but I seriously doubt it.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Hil, it takes no authority to call 911. Let the paramedics evaluate her.
Yes, if someone refuses first aid, you cannot continue to administer it, but legally and morally their refusal for aid does not stop you from summoning emergency assistance.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
she's been this drunk in China
Is she Asian? Because, WOW, the average person of Asian descent metabolize alcohol WAY more slowly than the average person of Anglo descent.

Yeah, she's Chinese.
We were just about to call 911 when she threw up and then started feeling better. I waited around for a while to make sure she seemed OK. After a few hours, it was definitely wearing off.
