I'm Not Bitter (She Said Bitterly, With A Bitter Expression)

[namisan]

Who: Nami
Broadcast: Yup
Action: Kitchens of the Marsiva
When: July 3

[Look at the date.  And they're still on this piece of shit ship.  Kind of takes all the desire to celebrate anything right out of her sails.

...god knows how old she is now anyway.]

If you have any decent booze stashed away in your room, wanna help a girl out?  The Atroma's stocks are running low, and it sucks to begin with.

[Yeah, guess what she's doing in the kitchen.  Don't worry, if you come looking for said limited Atroma stocks, she'll still share.]

[Oh, excellent.]

I've got a little booze, if you want to get buzzed for the occasion.

[:)))]

Voice.

[namisan]

[Snrk. Sam.]

Isn't it more like watching you get buzzed and being very entertained by it? I mean, that sounds fun.

[Yes pls get down here.]

Voice. -> Action.

[collegedropout]

Oh, come on, I can't always be the weird sappy drunk.

I'm totally giving all the booze to you.

[But he will be there. And when he nudges into the room, he's definitely got something behind his back.]

Heeeey - feels like it's been a whole two minutes since I heard from you. Time flies.

[Why, yes, it had been that long since they'd been stuck on the Marsiva. When would they be allowed to go back to their own ships? It seemed the Aroma would make that move.]

Ah, I do believe I have some fine red wine stashed away somewhere.

[He picked up some on his travels. Knowing Ardyn, he'd have a whole cellar full right now.]

[namisan]

[Holy shit. Really?]

That's amazing. [Sir, you have taste. And good luck, apparently.] Can I talk you into drinking in company?

[maledictus_semper]

[Yes, really. Just don't ask how he got it or where he got it from. Planet side on last visit? Perhaps. It vaguely looked and tasted like wine, so Ardyn took to it immediately.]

I suppose it is, considering this place is like a wine desert, with no account for good taste at all. Let me see? How can I refuse such an offer, hm? Where shall we delight our taste buds aboard this ship?

[reconstitution]

I could be convinced into sharing. Not like I can get far with it.

[ With a gesture to this giant piece of refuse they're still trapped on. ]

[namisan]

No. I think that's half the reason I'm drinking.

[She gives him a faint crooked smile.] Spare a girl a drink for her birthday?

[That'd be the other half of the reason.]

[torsion]

I've been holding back on drinking considering the situation. Didn't know if it was safe or not.

Guess this is confirmation that I can give it a go?

(Which is to say, sorry. No stash on my end. Haven't been here long enough to acquire one!)

[namisan]

First, I'd say welcome to the Fleet, but maybe I should say condolences instead.

But yeah, the alcohol is safe. One of the few things to help keep you sane, be my guest.

[torsion]

I'll settle for a "hey", but that'll do well enough.

Lucky us, then. I take it you've been around the block -- so to speak, I mean.

[Hey, person he saw personal memories of.] I have some. It's superbrew though, so you'd need to water it down. A lot. [He can't even drink it right now so it is one of the more worthless things that came over of his items.]

Video

[namisan]

[Hey, person she... well, likewise. We're getting there. She perks up. That sounds like a challenge.]

What kind of proof are you talking?

Video

[spacebro]

Like...10,000? Ish? [Too high?]

[onlyanapple]

I'm all out, but if you find any, please think of poor old me and save me a bottle? There's nothing more tragic than a sober demon, let me tell you that for nothing.

Video;

[namisan]

You know, there's a guy on his way here who boasts he has fine red wine.

Video;

[onlyanapple]

Really, now? And is he up for sharing this fine red wine of his?

Video

[iattractmushi]

[He's getting the hang of this way of communicating, just in time to see someone he recognizes. Sort of.]

Sorry, I just arrived so I don't have anything of my own yet.

Do you think they'll restock anytime soon?

Video

[namisan]

Probably. But not today, and today's when I want it.

[Grump sulk pout, etcetera.]

[darksmokerising]

[Merlan wanders in because she's clearly on another run, cup in hand.
Coffee, this time. Brand new pot.]

I've got some whisky but I'm not exactly going to bust it out right now. Been sticking to coffee and tea. Guess my liver is thanking me for that about now.

[namisan]

Your liver won't care in this place one way or the other. Magical powers and future science and not aging, all that jazz.

[But, you know. Coffee has its perks. To each their own. Seriously though, why point out you have alcohol if you're not gonna share. Sulk.]

[video]

[mrfancyhat]

That depends.

[And he pauses just to make her wait. She wants booze. He may have it. Why make it super easy?]

What do you think of wine?

[video]

[namisan]

[Rude, Chuuya >:| Teasing her like that.]

I've got a taste for it. It's better than your standard pub drink, anyway. [TBH she drinks just about everything.]

[Video]

[goldenglasses]

Afraid I don't here, but when we get back to our ships I should have a bottle and a piece of jewelry I could probably give you around somewhere. It's called Gin Smash. I picked it up on the last planet and I was told it was some of the strongest stuff they sold.

Happy birthday, boss.

[Yes, he knows why you're asking and he's sorry he wasn't more prepared to be stuck here for a month without the gifts he picked up already.]

[Video]

[namisan]

Well, it's the thought that counts. I'll look forward to it in the future!

[Bless you for remembering, Vash! Though it's not like she's secretive about it in the first place, really. Jewellery, though--] What kind of jewellery?
