[Superdorf]

I dunno... but she's really not happy about how things went down back there, and I suspect that's as much our fault as his. I don't want to let that simmer.

[20] "I would like to get some sleep--" Emma's stomach gurgles loudly with hunger. She sighs, nodding, and the two of you pick a pub at random. They all look the same anyway.

[19] It's nearly empty when you enter. Then becomes empty as soon as the remaining patrons get a glance at your armor. You sit at the bar, and ask for the menu. "[Beast of Burden] stew, fried potatoes, and braised meat."

You and Emma both ask for double portions, extra potatoes, and the keep nods, glancing at the guards. They take one look around the bar and shake their heads mutely. "You want something to drink?" The bartender asks the two of you.

Emma orders a bottle of vodka, for herself.

[ZBridges]

"What do you have?"

[19_EgarAlnis]

"Vodka. Beer. Some cheap wine. I've got a bottle of brandy for VIPs like yourself. Running low on hard cider-- the apple harvest was bad this year."

[ZBridges]

"I'm not surprised about that.  Just some water, please."

[19_EgarAlnis]

"Ain't got water. Ain't a restaurant."

[ZBridges]

Yes, I've been to tons of pubs, why do you ask?

"Sorry.  Vodka is fine."

[19_EgarAlnis]

"Bottle, mug, or shot?" The bartender is the epitome of stoic patience. Emma takes a sip from her bottle, reluctantly amused by the exchange.

[Naturegirl1999]

“Which one’s the biggest amount?”

[ZBridges]

"After this conversation, you should probably just leave the bottle."

[Superdorf]

"After this conversation, you should probably just leave the bottle."

I'm uh, confused as to what you mean by that-- bottle is fine tho. Angelic liver and all.

[19_EgarAlnis]

He sets the bottle of vodka down for you, and you take a sip-- the burning and lack of flavor, tells you, yes this is nearly pure ethanol. The barkeep nods, stepping in the back to prepare your meal.

Emma radiates a hostile patience, but she takes a hard gulp of vodka. You do the same, and the two of you drop into an awkward silence.

[ZBridges]

"So... do you like being an Empyreal, or would you prefer things the way you were?"

[Superdorf]

...right. Now to set things up so's we can make a proper apology.

Sigh heavy. "Attack dog, hm? Demon? I really upset you back there..."
