[ It's late in the evening, but there's still a bit of light in the background as Rin sits outdoors in the southern part of Aghmhor. No doubt she's been tending to her garden in an attempt to keep her mind off of certain things (or people, in this case), but some things need to be addressed. Holding up a familiar piece of parchment, she waves it a bit in front of the locket and addresses her fellow Shardbearers with an exasperated tone that matches her image. ]
Now this is a good example of how a Baron should handle their affairs though I do have to question the matter in which Baron Sterling Archer conducted his will. [ Why she's even wearing a sign that reads PRUDE right across it... only after she was cursed into doing so. A small minor detail that no one has to know. ] So listen up new Barons--because I know there's more than one of you--but inside of your stupid spires is a device I created. If you want to know how to use it to communicate privately with other spires, you can ask your fellow Barons or you can throw a nice gift my way for a brief lesson.
Just... no more liquor. [ Throwing the piece of paper over her shoulder, she turns the locket around to show crates of varying quality. Mostly good as he did have expensive tastes. ]
I work at a coffee shop, not a bar. What am I supposed to do with this again? [ Drink it all? There's no way that's happening. ]
I could share it with whoever could do me a favor. I have a lot of things that need doing should you alcoholics need a fix while sober.

[ It isn't easy for her to be angry with someone like him so she just takes in a deep breath to calm herself before inquiring about how much he's had to drink. ]
Servants require a lot, don't they?
no subject
[There was a pause. Lancelot, forgetting who he was talking to, finished off the jug with a somber expression before spitting at the forge. A giant ball of flame rose out of it and he smashed the jug on the ground.]
Resistance to poison is meaningless.
[Finally, he added.]
It's good.
no subject
Please don't set anything on fire while you're drinking.
no subject
He already forgot that he smashed the jug as well, flexing his open hand as if he was unsure where it went.]
Still. I need fire.
Actually, I need to chop wood. I will run out of fire, soon. [He was beginning to sound robotic. Lancelot found that when he was intoxicated, making his sentences as simple as possible sometimes made him seem more sober than he actually was.]
no subject
Really, he's from a time where they drank consistently. Then again, after she's seen other Servants drink too much she's just a tad bit concerned on the matter. When her father drank, it was elegant and never unsightly. When others drank, it was always loud and inelegant. ]
That sort of thing is a thing I'm good at doing.
no subject
Almost immediately, he forgot.]
You're good at fire, Rin?
[Grammar slipped right past the filter.]
no subject
Please try and not burn anything down, you idiot.
no subject
Though, I suppose it looked interesting.
no subject
It did not look interesting! Do you not have a handkerchief to wipe yourself?
no subject
That and he really did think that giant fireball was awesome.]
...
[Finally, he realized Alice asked him something.] ...I do not.
no subject
[ If he were closer, Alice would have smacked him by now. ]
...
[ Not huffy, no, not huffy at all. ]
Don't be ridiculous; I'm so glad the children are asleep, we'd never hear the end of this.
no subject
[Of course he had handkerchiefs--until he wiped his filthy face with them, anyway. Handkerchiefs didn't magically clean themselves upon being stuffed into a frilly pocket, after all.]
...What time is it?
no subject
[ She's only a little snippy with him, if only for the fire. ]
Then I'll just have to clean it for you and ensure that you have more than one.
[ Alice looks around her. It's a real shame that she doesn't have a clock, sometimes. She gives a small, dramatic sigh. ]
It's late in the evening; it has to be, the children have been a sleep, if only for a few hours.
no subject
It's been awhile since he's been that drunk--]
...It was just the morning, wasn't it?
no subject
No, it's dark out, it's not morning anymore, and I'm almost ready to go to bed, myself.
no subject
I don't think--
It's too early, isn't it? They can't be asleep, yet...
no subject
No, it is not too early, it's very dark outside. You must have been working for a very long time, haven't you?
no subject
There was something he could then do without fear of reprieve--drink more of the gifted liquor.]
I'll favor your point, if only for the benefits. [Nevermind that he was saying this without a hint of privacy--]
Are you ready for me, then? [Without hesitation, he threw aside an oil bathed sword across the smithy, it stabbing into the side of his anvil.]
no subject
[ Alice is really trying not to get too exasperated and failing miserably. ]
What do you mean- oh, never mind!
[ Her mind is going in all the wrong places. ]
If you mean ready for you to come back and get some sleep? Then yes. There is something I need to talk to you about, but it will have to wait until you're sober, anyway.
no subject
In fact, Lancelot was beginning to undo the buttons of his shirt as if he were already there--]
no subject
[ NOT ON THE LOCKETS, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. ]
no subject
[This was his only objection.]
no subject
Not on the lockets. You are too drunk.

In turn, I am in a wonderful mood--

The only response she gives him is picking up one of the pillows from the sofa and hurling at his head. ]
