"Wouldn't have pegged you for a tequila girl, but you're full of surprises. I like that." Claiming the mojito, Koa raises it in a toast. "What shall we drink to?" he asks with a smile, waiting for her their glasses to touch before taking sip. It's cool and refreshing, perfect for a Longheat night, and if the liquor content is a little higher than usual, hey, perks of knowing the waitress, right?
He's mid-sip when the question makes him nearly spit, indignation and amusement bright in his boyish voice. "I wasn't throwing her, I was trying to help her," is the correction, a clarification the dragon seems to disagree with. She squawks in protest from her position half-draped into Sohalia's lap, using it as an excuse to slide the rest of the way off the table and curl against the girl, as though seeking protection from being yeeted once again. Undaunted, Koa continues: "She needs to get in touch with her instincts. Learn how to be a real dragon, instead of a catsnake."
Pip pops her head back over the edge of the table, sticking out her tongue before retreating to the safety of Soh's lap.
