It was a rite of passage, most everyone went through it. Bastian didn't often feel old but standing there watching the campers causing a ruckus, tipsy and having the time of their little teenage lives, he did. And he was okay with that, because he didn't want to go through that experience again. He'd already been there, done that, got the t-shirt, and now he could drink like a fish and be just fine. Or, at least, stay in bed until he felt like getting up. That was another perk of being an adult. There were so few of them, he'd take what he could get.
