BASTIEN
Amun denied himself the drink, which Bastien felt was odd; what was the harm, when it would do nothing to them anyway? It helped him to feel normal, back to his usual hedonistic self for a moment, and that was a blessing to him, not a painful memory. Shaking his head and raising his eyebrows, he gladly responded to Siri's cheer and knocked back the glass. "We cannot get drunk, no. Nor can we taste food properly, or feel most sensations. The price you pay for immortality."
And yet, even with his decadent heart, he'd Ascend all over again. "That said, we do have some work arounds...occasionally, in these Grounds, we visit a place where some of those sensations return." The almost mischievous smile on his face implied that the 'sensations' revived in that place were not the sort of thing one usually brought up in polite company. "For the most part though? I paint, I dance, I walk. Take in the world around me with none of the distractions of human need. I am unfortunately old enough now to not need constant excitement."
