[He takes the bottle from him, and takes a giant swig, wincing as it burns down his throat.]
...Ugh. [A huff.] I don't know. I was set on Alyssa, then Dorothy, then...I don't know, anymore. It had to have been an adult, I think. Raven drank with someone and got drugged that way.
. . . Yeah? In the general sense. I mean. Nothing to complain about, comparatively. But I was thinking about it. What if I have to? What’s the line where you, uh, cross. Just sorta feels like I’m sitting with my head in the guillotine and I’m just closing my eyes and kinda hoping the thing doesn’t fall any time soon.

[Hansa follows, hands in the pockets of his stupid pirate coat.]
I guess we can consider this a celebration, huh? Doesn't feel much like one, though.
no subject
Is it? I mean. Still no end in sight to this bullshit-- and we still don't know who the fuck got Raven.
no subject
[He just wipes a hand over his face.]
I guess we just need to look on the bright side.
no subject
Yeah, the bright side being maybe we won't remember any of this next week.
[hah!]
. . . So who do you think did it?

...Ugh. [A huff.] I don't know. I was set on Alyssa, then Dorothy, then...I don't know, anymore. It had to have been an adult, I think. Raven drank with someone and got drugged that way.
no subject
It wasn’t me, for the record. I know saying that makes me super suspicious, but I didn’t do it.
no subject
[He hands him back the bottle.]
no subject
[Taking a long drink? This is fine.]
no subject
[A long pause. Is it fine? Is it?]
Are you okay, Taako?
no subject
. . . Yeah? In the general sense. I mean. Nothing to complain about, comparatively. But I was thinking about it. What if I have to? What’s the line where you, uh, cross. Just sorta feels like I’m sitting with my head in the guillotine and I’m just closing my eyes and kinda hoping the thing doesn’t fall any time soon.

[He gives the other a curious look, trying to understand.]
no subject
[Just. Sitting down on a bench somewhere. it’s fine.]
no subject
Forget...who? [He asks, then pauses. Her, as in...] Forget Lup?
no subject
It was a whole deal. And I was working on fixing the deal? And now we’re here. So. Fuck.
no subject
[And as far as he remembers, she forgot her friends, didn't she...?]
[He glances down, his mouth twisting into a frown.]
...I'm sorry. I can't imagine how hard it is to deal with that all over again.
no subject
[Snorting a laugh and then taking another drink.]
I’m just deep in my shit. Don’t worry about it. Look, things have a way of turning up Taako - don’t discount the luck factor.
no subject
[He folds his arms.]
If you say so. ["Don't worry about it", he says. Hm.] But suffering by yourself isn't the way to go, though.
no subject
[Gesturing. To the bottle? Wow. Burn.]
no subject
[Just going to pick up the bottle and give it a swig.]
So much for your friend. He likes to spend time with others, too.
no subject
Why would I— [losing? it?] Why would I care! What is this relationship I have with this bottle? We’re not exclusive!
no subject
[>8I]
[Taking another swig.]
no subject
[reaching over to zap him in the face]
no subject
[he IS going to let out a yelp of pain and just drop the bottle and collapse so. probably worth it?]
no subject
this backfired]
Jesus fuck— I forgot about conductors! Shit!
no subject
You're! Just like your sister!
[give him a moment this will take a bit to recover from]
