The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind
She nods. ”I’ve seen Wessex down a glass of whiskey,” she confirms. As he asks after the best whiskey, she goes to grab a bottle from one of the top shelves, holding it out for him to see. ”This one. I’m not sure it’ll taste quite the same for you as for me, but let's find out what it is like for you, shall we?” It sounds vaguely like an experiment, but probably a fun one. She pours a glass for each of them, his a bit larger, remembering how Wessex had gone for some quantity in her own glass. Maybe that was the trick to getting anything from it. Or maybe Wessex just wanted to drown out the early disaster of that party. She’s not sure.
Weaver places the glass before him, titling her own toward him before lifting it to her lips and taking a sip. She chuckles at the mention of the hunters though, nodding in agreement. ”Ah, tell me about it,” she says with a knowing smile. She’d been one of those hunters until very recently, after all. Deepfrost always drove her crazy. It would be interesting to see whether or not working inside one building the whole time would do the same to her or not. ”I will do my best to simply keep them drunk and happy, but it usually only works for so long.”
”A lawyer? How very fancy.” She says, though it’s only teasing. Though she’s not highly educated by any means, she wasn’t an idiot and knew enough. The idea of being a lawyer, something they have little use of here, interests her though. Not that she wants to be one, but rather that she’s simply curious what it might have been like. What he says about Halo is true though. They certainly apprentice, they certainly train, but there’s a lot of learning by doing here and you can only refine your skills so much in such a culture. ”Is the Academy only one step in that plan?” Though the training did work, not everyone would enroll.
