Fitz wouldn't say that he's depressed to wake up without as much of a hangover as he could have had, but it's definitely proof that he could've had a far more wild New Year's than he did. He even was sober enough to hang up his suit (the trousers are hanging off the back of the chair where he tosses his clothes and the shirt has slipped onto the floor: it's basically one step away from having dried cleaned them or whatever you do with tuxedos). He mentally pours one out to the drinks he didn't pour enough of, as he goes to sit up.
At least it's still more of a 'fall out of bed' than a 'stand up without problem' situation, so his party days clearly aren't fully erased.
"Just a minute," he says, waving the hand that he failed to cover his yawn with in Ethan's direction. He still hasn't fully opened his eyes, but he doesn't need to see to know. He has to wash his face. "Tea," he waves just a vaguely, but Ethan knows where he keeps the kettle. It's vital for return to full consciousness.
