Who didn't care one bit that she was both shy and insecure and completely inexperienced when it came to this kind of situation - relationships, flirting, dealing with people - and seemed to take a wicked sort of pleasure in seeing her blush.

"You've had enough of that," she snarled, after trembling, murderously painful moments of silence, unable to even properly respond to the overture. His reaching for the bottle was far easier a thing to lash out at, and with a quick snatch of magic, switching grip from water to telekinesis with almost practiced ease, she made it swoop to her hand. Then pushed away from the bar and stomped off for the trash bin, where she had thrown out all the rest of the useless, dangerous things. Fully intending to chuck it.
Anger made a fine replacement for flustered embarrassment. Nice and easy to hide behind.
