[ she gives him the benefit of the doubt and assumes that his lack of drunkenness is because of an incredible tolerance and not because he simply doesn’t drink, based on the way he so easily took the glass. ]
[Yes, thank you, he could destroy this whole bottle by himself. Since he's still resisting just downing the whole glass, he raises his to her slightly in a sort of yes-I-am-full-of-surprises gesture.]
Thank you. It isn't an incident I intend on repeating, so...
Next time I get one of these, I’ll call on you first.
[ she says, and before she can take a delicate sip, a skeleton throws itself against the kitchen window—admittedly making her jolt, but not enough for her to lose her dignity by choking on the wine. ]
[ sierra takes a bit of an undignified gulp of her wine, like a mom in a hurry, and sets the glass down to go to the window. it’s over the cooking area, likely for ventilation, and the skeleton looks like he thinks he can get in because he can see them. ]
[Chugging wine like that honestly makes her his kind of person, but he's not going to acknowledge that in a million years!! He puts his own glass down and finds a broom, which must be handy since brooms are always handy?? Anyway, here.]
luckily, she definitely did have a broom handy because she keeps a tidy house, and she pushes open the kitchen window wide enough for the skeleton to try to start crawling through.
absolutely not. ]
At least ask if you can come in next time, you monster.
[ and she shoves the wooden tip of the broom into the skeleton’s eyehole, launching its head off somewhere far away. ]
[Oh okay that's, uh, fine. That's fine. Reim can see only so much of this from his angle, but he can definitely see a head getting launched into next week. Gross.]
Oh, are you worrying about me? I'm not sure how to feel about that.
[This is blatantly teasing, but he says it totally deadpan as he picks his glass up again. He will not leave this house without finishing his drink, shh.]
[ it’s hard to tell if she’s guessing or if she’s informing him of what she feels to be fact, but either way, she knows what “a brisk walk” is code for in her dictionary, anyway. ]

He does not spill the wine, however. That's important.]
More of them followed me all the way here...?!

Somehow, it's more gruesome than the last time.

There’s no shame in it, as long as you get away…

Right. I hope none have descended upon my house in my absence, now that I think about it...
