[Well, here they are. It's the night after Beau and Flayn first had a drink together, and they're still on the bus... which means it's time to drag Dimitri into it. So here she is, pulling Dimitri along to meet Beau by the liquor cabinet.]
[ he doesn't know what soda is. is that also alcohol. why is this on him to mediate. ]
Ah, right... the monastery didn't have much to drink, did it? [ what would Flayn know about booze, really? this is really nothing like teatime... he wrestles with his thoughts for a moment, but in the end, they're all adults here, and he doesn't really want to rob Flayn of any opportunities. ]
I suppose there is no harm. All I ask is that you both drink with moderation. [ he is a DD in spirit. ]
[ moderation is!! good!!!! he wasn't actually expecting her to make him a drink at all, peering at it curiously rather than actually taking a sip. It's different from the STRAIGHT VODKA she was knocking back earlier, for sure. It even smells kind of sweet. ]
Is this not your favored brew, Beau? How do you prefer your liquor?
[ is there a counter here for her to sit on? that's what she's going to do if there is. ]
Sure. [ she says to flayn. as for dimitri's question: ] I don't have a preference. I usually just drink to get drunk. I guess I like whiskey, though. Anything but wine.

I have brought him!
no subject
Yes, here I am. [ This is the face of a man who had no choice in the matter regardless. ] May I ask what this is?
no subject
[ beau grins at flayn, giving her a wink. ] I've got a hangover and the only cure is more whiskey.
no subject
[Perhaps surprisingly, she doesn't have one. Hm!]
...anyway, Dimitri, you really must try the drink Beau made for me yesterday. It is delicious!
no subject
Flayn, even you—!
[ he's not here to be seteth, but it's been one day. one!! he gazes at beau, a little exasperated, a little defeated. ] What have you done?
no subject
Live a little. I gave her mostly soda, anyway. [ she's gonna rummage for the whiskey in the cabinet. ]
no subject
[It was fine! Seteth really should have let her go to a tavern before.]
It reminded me of having tea with the Professor, only with a different drink.

Is the Professor an asshole, or nice? [ so beau knows if that's a compliment or not. ] You guys drink whatever you want and I'll drink the rest of it.
[ beau. anyway she'll make jack and cokes for both of them. ]
no subject
[IMMEDIATELY. It's a compliment, don't worry.
Smiling, Flayn takes her glass once Beau's finished making the drinks and takes a sip from hers.]
It is just as good as I remembered. Thank you.

Sure. [ she says to flayn. as for dimitri's question: ] I don't have a preference. I usually just drink to get drunk. I guess I like whiskey, though. Anything but wine.
[ wine gets a weirdly sharp tone to it. hm. ]
no subject
she'll just keep sipping delicately at her drink. drinking it slowly is probably why she didn't wake up with a hangover.]
How many types of liquor are there, anyway..?
no subject
There are quite a lot, even in Fódlan. But amongst the nobility, we usually had wine.
[ From what he remembers, it was quite good, actually? Maybe Beau just had a taste for the stronger stuff... ]
no subject
There's a shitton all over. Exandria's got everything under the sun, but. Wine and ale are the most typical? Wine's. Fine.
no subject
[Thanks, Seteth.]
...I have heard people say that ale is good! Is it?
no subject
Well, it's often cleaner than water thanks to the brewing process. [ he says so sort of robotically, he has no fun opinions on anything ]
