[video] His people would have at least nine historically known words for the stuff, after all

*Yes, this was totally worth bringing his dinner up to the library to share. Enoch is seated in the terminal chair, a plate of glazed chicken in his lap and a glass of rosewater wine in his hand. While his words and manner are formal, there's a real, if exhausted, gratitude in his voice.*

I must give gratitude where it's due. *Enoch raises the glass.* It's much appreciated. Thank you, Riki.

((backdated to the dinner hours of the first, of course.))

Uh-huh. I drank it just like this.. [ She pantomimes drinking - aka just pretending she's holding a glass and then moving her hand up to her lips and throwing her head back. ]

[warriorscribe]

But what does "sort of" mean here?

[chainsawn]

[ .. Her face changes a little for once, frowning as if she's trying to figure out something difficult. ]

People say dreams don't count. But mine are different..

[warriorscribe]

Do you have dreams that mimic reality?

[chainsawn]

In my dreams I can do things that I can do here too. So.. [ .. ah, wait, she never thought of it that way! ] .. maybe this is all a dream.

[warriorscribe]

It isn't a dream...

*If they were dreaming, he's sure he'd have woken up multiple times by now, at least.*

In...in any case, it may not be the same, still. It's best to start light, as if you've never had it.

[chainsawn]

How do I start off light? [ As if Urotsuki wouldn't take that the wrong way, really. ]

Do I need to make sure to not drink in the dark?

[warriorscribe]

No, no... Starting off light means drinking very little to test your own tolerance. It's important to find out how much is too much for you.

[chainsawn]

[ Oh.. now she seems to get it. Maybe. It's hard to tell with how weirdly this girl takes everything. ]

So I should drink just a few drops?

[warriorscribe]

Wh-...no. Try having only as much as this *and he holds up his own wineglass* first.

[chainsawn]

[ .. There's a moment where she thinks about it, or maybe she's trying really hard to make sure to remember it, but then she nods. ]

Don't worry. I won't have more than that at first.. it's a promise.
