Aiden let the subject drop. When Roman clammed up the kid could be stubborn. Something Aiden could understand even when it frustrated him. "Only one, kid." He answered, knowing what Roman was really asking. Better that Roman came here than went binge drinking... "If your mom finds out she'll kill me." Well, him AND Roman, but mostly Aiden.

Roman grinned a little, glad that the subject was successfully changed as he took two beer bottles out of the fridge. He came back into the living room and tossed one to Aiden, it'd feel awkward if he was the only one drinking. "C'mon, like we're gonna tell?" He wasn't stupid, his mother would FLIP if she found out he'd been drinking. He never saw the big deal anyway, he'd never had enough to get drunk before. "You're the only one that ever lets me have any, you think I'm screwing that up?" He sighed, opening the bottle and drinking a little. "My grandpa even looks at me like I killed someone when I even MENTION alcohol." Now THAT he never understood, his grandfather was normally so relaxed about everything. Bring up alcohol into a conversation though, then he decides to go off the deep end, it wasn't like the stuff was THAT bad so long as you could control yourself.

Aiden took a quick drink out of the bottle. "He had some trouble with it in the past if I recall." The giant said, half musing. It really wasn't much of his place to say so, but he had fuzzy memories of kicking the man's ass a long time ago... Besides. If Roman wasn't told the truth about his father and Aiden couldn't break the news about THAT, then he might as well tell him the truth about the OTHERS.
Thankfully the kid had never pried to deep into his own history.

Roman raised a brow at his uncle after taking another drink. "No way, you're kidding." He just couldn't see it. "Besides, how would you know? I wouldn't think you'd know much about that side of my family." Aside from him knowing his father, Roman didn't think Aiden really associated much with the Megumi family(there was his Aunt Hotaru of course, but Roman always got an awkward vibe when those two were in the same room together.)

Aiden shrugged. "I kicked his ass when he was drunk. He got pretty fucking mean, that's probably why your mom wouldn't want you drinking, 'case you turned out an alcoholic." There was always genetics to think about, but in the end there was only one way to find out. And Roman had never had a problem stopping after one beer, so that was about as safe as it could get right now.
Besides, better to teach him to drink responsibly and do it at home than have him getting into bare-knuckled barfights.

Roman's eyes widen only a little. "I can't really picture that." He frowned as he thought a little bit more to himself. "Was... was my dad like that too?" After all the good things he heard his family say about his father, he'd REALLY be shocked if he had been a mean drunk too.

Aiden shook his head. "Matsuda wasn't a mean drunk. Got kinda giggly and stupid if I remember right... An... kinda flirty." THAT was an awkward memory. He had had to drag the other Ookami out of the bar before the blond lost all of his clothes. He was PRETTY certain Matsuda never got his shirt back... "Nothin' bad."

Roman sighed quietly, mostly in relief. He thought about it for a second and chuckled to himself a bit. "So that's where Perri gets it from..." It was a funny thought, though the more he thought about it the more he realized that she might be more like their father than he was. It wasn't he could really know for sure, but it sounded like his dad hadn't had problems making friends, just like Perri. While he was lucky just to have Hajime and Becca, not that he was complaining. It was just weird to think about, he supposed.

Aiden let his head fall to the side a bit as he raised a brow. "The drunk partying or the flirtatiousness?" He asked... Truth be told he had his hunches about what the twins were doing. Only based on what rumors Jack would tell him he heard the kids gossiping about, Anya never said much.
Still, he could remember what highschool had been like. He wasn't THAT old, yet.

Shit, shouldn't have said that out loud. Oh well, not that he could take it back anyway, it was near impossible hiding stuff from Aiden as it was. "Both." he replied before taking another drink. Should he feel bad that he admitted it? Maybe, but it wasn't like it was a well kept secret to begin with, all he did was confirm it. Besides, it wasn't like THAT was the big secret they were trying to keep away from the adults.
He sighed and sat the bottle down, if he wasn't gonna try and cover it up he could at least put something good in for her. "I think she's stopping now though, that girlfriend of hers and all."

Aiden smiled a bit. "If I met her, would I terrify her?" He asked. There were only a few scenarios he could think of where PERRI of all kids would wind up calming down. Even if only temporarily. Someone incredibly shy and proper was option number one. Option number two was someone with enough moral caliber and backbone to get Perri to straighten up.

Roman laughed and nodded. "OH yeah, I scared her at first when I met her." Though then again, most people at school were scared of him, so it was nothing surprising. "Definitely a princess type, doesn't even swear. It's kinda weird." Oh well, opposites attract he guessed. Kinda made him wonder what a girlfriend for him would be like, not that THAT was happening anytime soon unless girls suddenly decided to find interest in him(which he highly doubted).

"You're an intimidating guy, Roman," Aiden grinned. "Scaring the ladies senseless isn't very chivalrous..." Not that Roman could really help it, sometimes people just gave off vibes, and often times those vibes were based on how they had been treated in the past. Roman, as far as Aiden was concerned, was doing better than he COULD have been doing, all things considered...
He wished he could help more, though. "Keep an eye out for your sister and her princess, though, alright? Put that training I did with ya ta good use."

Roman rolled his eyes, though he couldn't suppress a chuckle from coming out. "Yeah yeah." he muttered before taking another drink. He sat the bottle down on the coffee table and sighed. "'Sides, what'd ya think most of my fights are from anyway?" He said this a little quieter, feeling a little embarrassed about bringing it up. Everyone knew about the fights, it was hard to hide that sort of stuff when you had family that worked at the school, but they weren't his fault. People should know better than to say certain things about his family around him, whether or not they were true..
