i have talked about this just recently but we shall proceed anyway. i don’t see current!ei being capable of getting intoxicated with alcohol. though miko still manages to persuade her to join her drinking escapades under the pretext of needing a partner for that, which ei can’t really say no to. we know that miko used to be an (emotional) lightweight, but she outgrew that with time, and now she cannot be swayed with a couple of drinks this fast. still doesn’t convince me that she doesn’t get covered in all-pink, from her cleavage up to her face, which makes an adorable and sentimental sight for ever-sober ei. i also feel like ei’s presence + just one bottle of alcohol would be enough to make miko lose control over her furry appendages.. i just know her tails would thrash furiously, accidentally smiting everything and everyone (ei).. in general, drunk miko is intense (especially when she gets beyond the tipsy level): emotional, overwrought, angry, but simultaneously pitiful. but i believe by the end of it all she would just get tired and shift into her tiny fox form to have rest.. preferably in ei’s arms all snuggled up of course. for pre-cata ei(miko) it could be a toss up tbh fjskdk i think to contrast miko’s low tolerance it would make more sense for ei to be quite resilient. i think her general experience and life longevity wouldn’t make her a forever lightweight so it should work.. as for her behavior then.. uhhh i guess she used to be rly overprotective, inexplicably clingy, restless, clumsy, but always responsible for taking care of absolutely wasted miko (carrying her out of the inn in her arms or sheltering her eeping body when sitting against the trunk of the tree).. some of these traits already exist in the usual ei, but they would manifest more strenuously when drunkjdjf
