He wrinkled his nose as he fell the bitterness, pushing it away. "As hell no, that ain't better than dear sweet AJ"

"You just can't appreciate other fruits." He shrugged at him, sipping through the straw. It was bitter at first, but with a sweet undertone from the cordial.

●

"I can appreciate grapes." He smirks a little, adjusting his shades as he sipped a bit more from his drink.

"Can you now? Do you like wine?" He grinned, fins wiggling a bit as he took another sip. Their food arrived ten, and he smiled his thanks at the waiter.

2015-08-14 02:13:50

●

"I was talking about grumpy grapes. Um." He waits until the waiter is gone so that he can talk again, as if what he is about to say is a big hush-hush thing. "Never really tried it, honestly. Too fancy."

He took a bite of his food as he waited for Dave to finish speaking. "Do you want to try some? I have some at home unless you want to get some from here."

"Sure, I don't mind, I just... been told it isn't that great? Yeah. John and Jade definitely don't drink it, and Lalonde is more of a fuck-me-up type of alcoholic. With all of her fanciness still, which is impressive. You can guess that Bro doesn't buy that sort of shit, so... that leaves me with no wine whatsoever."

He took a bite out of his own after adding some vinegar, because everything is better with vinegar.

"It takes a bit to get used to, but it's nice with certain dishes. You can try mine, I have both red an' white wine. Red wine's stronger, but I like it a bit more."

2015-08-14 03:31:13

●

"I have a question." He paused for a bit, trying to word it in his mind before he said anything. "When exactly did you start drinking?"

2015-08-14 03:32:19

🌀

He swallowed his mouthful, brow furrowed a bit in concentration. "Um. Not too sure to be honest. Probably not at the recommended age. Maybe around... Seven sweeps. Seven an' a half?" He took another bite, brow still furrowed.

2015-08-14 03:35:09

●

"As far as I know a sweet is roughly two years, so, around fifteen or sixteen." He doesn't bother with being too precise. He then shrugs, nodding. He thought as much. "Rarely do people start drinking at the recommended age, honestly. I started when I was around 14. Not hardcore, but you know, started trying out shit."

2015-08-14 03:37:02

🌀

"Yeah. That's roughly it." He nodded, taking another bite. "I found like a stack of old rum or something an' got curious. I'm pretty sure that's when I first got fully drunk as well."

2015-08-14 03:45:03

●

"I don't think I ever got fully drunk until I got my drink on with friends at a bar, so a couple of years later. Just very, very tipsy. I mean, we were a little paranoid that Lalonde's mom would figure out we were raiding her stash, so we kept low." He shrugged.

2015-08-14 03:46:43

🌀

"There was no one monitoring my stash so I drank whenever I felt like it. Fef wasn't too happy with me when she found out." He rolled his eyes, taking a sip of his drink.

2015-08-14 05:08:11

●

He nodded again, sipping his own drink after a couple more bites. "How did you find it? Like who left it there?"

2015-08-14 09:34:44

🌀

He shrugged, trying to remember if he'd found out who left it. "My old, old house was right on a cliff overlooking the sea. It was real old an' I was exploring the attic because I was bored an' I found it. No idea who left it."

2015-08-14 09:45:11

●

"Old owner then, alright." He didn't question it further. "Man I wish I found magical alcohol like that."

2015-08-14 09:55:29

🌀

"The old owner was an ancestor I think. So it was probably his." He shrugged and took another bite, savouring the taste. "It didn't reappear once I'd finished it so it wasn't too magical."

2015-08-14 10:00:51

●

He laughs, nodding. "I can't best that logic. It's just semi magical. You just can't have it all." He kept eating, pretty pleased with the quality of it.

2015-08-14 10:05:20

🌀

He grinned, fins flicking a bit as he nodded. "Even if magic is fake. It was luck of coincidence." He'd finished about half his meal by now, and was thoroughly enjoying it. "You enjoying your meal Mr Strider?"

2015-08-14 10:06:31

●

He rolled his eyes at the comment about magic.

"Yeah, tastes pretty good. I personally wouldn't pay however much it costs to eat this more often, but its satisfying, definitely. How about you?"

2015-08-14 10:11:21

🌀

"Good." He grinned at him, fins wiggling a bit. "Mine's good. I haven't had the chicken from here before but it's good. Last time I was here they were introducing a desserts menu, but I was too skeptical to try it because why would they suddenly introduce desserts now? Some of it sounds good though, from what I saw of the menu."

2015-08-14 10:16:31

●

"A desserts menu? Count me in, I'm all about that. We could share one if you were stil sceptical, but I think you sweet tooth already left those thoughts behind. "He grins

2015-08-14 11:21:24

🌀

He huffed at him, but smiled all the same. "Yeah. Some of these things look really appealing. A dark chocolate an' macadamia brownie. Or maybe a mousse, chocolate mousse?"

2015-08-14 11:24:14

●

"Wow hold on, dark chocolate and what-the-fuck now?"
