[ME] one shot, two shot, coppertone-red

"What are you, some kind of mindreader?" Maea smiled lightly at Vesper, appearing nonchalant despite the withering ache on the inside. Watching with interest how he blended the ingredients into a drink, she accepted it and took a sip. Flavors zipped like dirty lightning across her palette, summer bright and harsh enough to require a bit of bracing before trying again. "Mh, this is perfect. Just what I needed." Gratitude was a warm breeze lacing through smile and words alike, soothing the burn of Asta's dismissal. Reaching out to snag the drink Nova had finished for someone else, she shot both siblings a wink before pushing away from the counter. "Or maybe I'll do both. Thank you, loves!"

With her hands full of liquid courage, Maea turned to meet Hadama's offer of company over a drink with a warm smile. "Of course," she replied – just in time to make it a double response as Liam caught up with her as well. "There you are! Sorry for wandering off. Gift's have been given, now we can just have fun!" Raising both glasses - one floral lemony bitter and one sweet rainbow menace - she took one determined sip of each and reeled as chaos wreaked havoc on her tongue. She would definitely not leave this bar sober.
