SO. An AU.
I've never really had an opportunity to do one of these before, so bear with me while I sort out my fanatical 'BUT THAT ISN'T HOW IT WORKS' impulses and actually try to be one of the cool kids. (I assume you all will let me know if that doesn't work out.) Now that the technical hijinkery is out of the way, let's get to the fun random character-expanding shit, to be added to as I think it up:
-Hal drinks a fair bit. More than what anyone probably should, and so he's really familiar with hangovers and trying to work around them. Mostly his drink of choice is whiskey sour, though if you can persuade him to drink beer, have fun with that.
-Hal is absolutely, undeniably horrible at beer pong, wet twister, flip cup, and pretty much all affiliated games. This is a great strategy if you want to see a surprisingly graceless pile of limbs trying to pull you to the floor with drunken adoration like some unholy mix of a limpet and an octopus.
-He's been interested in fencing for years, so don't be surprised when he, probably drunk, will attempt to imitate Errol Flynn. He's just also never studied it, so be wary of the end of whatever he's trying to use as a sword
-He's bi, but never actually came out to anyone, so he pretty much only dates girls. That doesn't mean everyone doing the morning walk-of-shame out of his apartment is a girl, though.
-He's got a pretty eclectic taste in music, and will blare it at ear-shattering volumes while trying to study. Another excellent excuse to think of him as nothing but a wastrel! All part of the long-term plan.
-More to come!
