....

Maybe just one sip. It smells so nice!

[ooc: Kururu's in front of the fountain, so action spam?]

[someone be passing by]

... Miss Sumeragi?

[finetuner]

[glances up, cup in hand half dipped in the fountain]

Mr. Gandor! Oh, how are you?

[fortuna_eterna]

[paaauses, one eyebrow up]

Just fine.

Partaking... ?

[finetuner]

[blushes and takes the cup out of the water hastily]

I w-was just curious. I've never drank any liquor outside of church and I was wondering what it would taste like...

[fortuna_eterna]

... Well.

[He smiles, kindly]

Considering you'll be working for me, I do advise you get at least a small tolerance built up.

But, I do advise you try with someone you trust, mm?

[finetuner]

[looks to the fountain, then back to Luck]

You think just a sip would be enough to make me drunk?

[fortuna_eterna]

[that makes him laugh]

Of course not.

[finetuner]

I trust your judgment, sir! I'm going to take a little sip.

[bends down and fills her cup just a tiny bit - she even pours a little out]

Y-you won't tell anyone, will you?

[fortuna_eterna]

My lips are sealed.

[He nods, reaching into his waist pocket and pulling out a small flask]

I'll even join you.

[finetuner]

[smiles and holds out her cup, giddy to have a partner in crime]

Cheers!

[fortuna_eterna]

Cheers.

[He raises his flask before unscrewing the top, taking a swig. Whiskey, burns]

[finetuner]

[takes a dainty sip. And while it tastes good, it's alcoholic enough so that when she swallows, she doesn't so much swallow as splutter]

Ahh! It's so...so hot!

[fortuna_eterna]

The taste takes a lot of getting used to, Miss Sumeragi.

[He's far too used to it, hard drinks, too]

But don't force it. If you wish to continue drinking in the future, you'll acclimate.

[finetuner]

How did you acclimate yourself, Mr. Gandor? Um, if you don't mind me asking.

[smacks her lips a little bit before taking another sip, this time swallowing with more grace]

[fortuna_eterna]

Well. That is a long story.

[He takes a seat at the fountain edge, another swing]

Family business.

[finetuner]

Drinking as a family business.... Oh, I'm sure Mr. Gandor has some very interesting stories.

[stares at him a bit in wonder. her face is a little hot.]
