"It is indeed." Vesper agrees. Still young enough to think he might find a way to stretch it out, or that with the right person maybe it'd just stay that way forever (hey, people had to fall in love for a reason, right?), he hadn't grown as jaded to it all as the captain quite yet.
"Ain't hard. From what I've seen, most of 'em like to have somethin' to fix, so," he shrugs. "Told her that I meant no offence by it, but that she looked an awful lot like my first love who tragically died in the war." Lifting the glass to his lips, he pauses just before he takes a sip. "Told her I never thought I'd get it over it, and boy did it hit me hard thinkin' I'd just seen her face again." The swallow of liquor is brutally silky, sliding down his throat with an electric burn that has him tilting his chin up toward the ceiling and his lips parting. "Now that is good."
Combing his fingers back through his hair, Vesper sets his glass down and picks up the toothpick he'd been chewing earlier. "I was able to get the lay of the land while I was up there. Time..." He presses his lips together, head tilting to the side. "..doesn't work the same way as it does down here. So while I get my bearings if there's anything that needs doing, I'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty while I figure things out."
