[ considering the whole thursday injuries thing. they tilt their head to the bartender, and tap the spot beside them. ] Don't drink too much. You'd hate to be hungover for your wake up call.
Hua Cheng. [ they agree, easily, and sip from the drink. ] He has good taste.
[ the liquor is very strong which they don't seem to mind. ]
Though, you're not just here for pleasure today, hm? Your task. For a healing task, you don't have to be as secretive. The faster you get it done, the faster it frees me up to heal again next week, so it's best to get it done quickly.
If it's not completed after a week, you won't like the results. Got it?
You're not really holding me up. Between you and me, I like your company a little better than Dimitri's. Kind of a stick in the mud.
[ that's a little lighter, but they tap their clawed fingers against the glass they're holding after, thoughtful. ]
Tell your group tonight a story with a beginning, a middle, and an end: something entertaining. Tell another story to a different group of people, using other guests from the hotel as the stars. You can do that one before tonight or later in the weekend, but I'd do it by the end of the weekend, just in case.

Hey.
[ taking a seat at the bar, polaris just flops down at his feet. he taps the bar with a couple of fingers. ]
Death After Noon.
[ and down slides a drink. ]
no subject
[ they watch the glass go sliding down. ] What's in it?
no subject
[ it's effervescent, almost a little green in color (because dandelion wine in genshin is apparently? absinthe-esque. ]
It's a strong variation of dandelion wine and sparkling wine mixed together. My favorite.

[ he looks over at them. ]
I've grown up in deep wine country... this doesn't phase me. What are you drinking?
no subject
... It's baiju. [ and then offer him the glass to try a little. ] Someone recommended it to me.
Sort of takes the edge off, doesn't it?
no subject
[ he takes a sip of his own drink. ]
Hua Cheng? Or someone else?

But in any case, don't worry. I don't want to hold anyone up or keep you from your business, I'll make sure it's done quickly.
[ he glances over. ]
So what will it be?
no subject

[ he chuckles a bit at that. dima can be a bit of a stick in the mud, it's true. but he's got some weight on him. ]
Dokja is going to like that one. Hopefully... he came back to us a little off. Maybe it'll bring him back just a little.
Two stories. I can get it done. Will you be listening in?
no subject
You want me to?
no subject
Might be talking about a few important things besides that story... [ you know how much of a hornets nest they are ] but... Yes.
no subject
If you want me to play deaf to that part, I can probably do that.
no subject
no subject
Are you planning on doing it?
no subject
Doing what? Telling a story to them? Of course. I'll make sure it's... suitably riveting.
no subject
[ sir your hornets nest ]
no subject
We'll see, [ he says into the cup. ]
no subject
[ they take a long sip of their wine. ] Whatever you decide is your own choice.
no subject
[ he undoes the hood and reveals that his hair is! white! ]
Don't worry, I'm familiar with that sentiment.
no subject
they reach over and just like tug his hair. ]
What the hell happened here?
no subject
They're going to turn me into an old man.

Hahh. I get the feeling. Well - it's not too bad on you, captain, stress notwithstanding.
