*It's his birthday, and Lord Henry has, essentially, gone into hiding. He is in his library, but he isn't reading. He is, instead, standing by a window, a glass of absinthe in hand-- he isn't far gone yet, but appears to be seriously considering it. He despises the passing of years.*

*has apparently robbed R's wine stash and tied a bow around the necks of a few bottles* ...Happy June?

*drily* Is it? I wasn't aware.

Or, y'know, if you'd like -- Happy day Benedict Arnold was court-martialed?

*and here's a trace of amusement, and the faintest of smiles* Dear me. And to think, I haven't done anything at all to celebrate.

Nor have I, but hey, that's what wine's for. With compliments from ...some French guy.

Those aren't exactly few and far between, here. You may have noticed.

Well, yeah. This one's the one that's generally drunk, though. I figured he wouldn't miss a few bottles of wine.

Ah. Grantaire. *grins* I suppose that would depend upon how many he's already had tonight.

*shrugs* Don't know, and don't particularly care.

I don't suppose there's any reason to mind either way. Thank you, I suppose. *glances at one of the bottles* Will you have a glass?

You're welcome. *grins* Sure.

*pours out two glasses, then-- what is it with the drinking threads today?-- and offers one* It has certainly been an interesting year.

*takes the glass then, and sips, delicately* I can see why, being stuck here's bound to be interesting enough.

Indeed. I've successfully avoided some of the more disastrous occurences, though. I haven't been killed in months.

Congratulations. I haven't been killed once.

Good. Avoid it if you can, though it isn't so easy, here. I always used to say one could survive anything but death-- but here, it seems, that doesn't quite apply.
