Straight for absinthe! Aw, you a girl after my own heart, huh?
How 'bout this - I'll buy a bottle, bring it with. See if the bartender'll use it for ya.
Big guy like me, they'll be too scared to get pissy if there some stupid "no outside drinks" rule.

[He's navigated that so-called rule countless times himself, after all; he knows firsthand that the bouncers are usually a lot smaller than he is.]

... Would ya feel the same if you were drinkin' at home, though? 'Bout that limit, I mean.
I wanna see if ya get goofy 'n laugh at my dumbest jokes.

[She nods when he suggests bringing a bottle - sounds good to her!

At the question, she hums thoughtfully for a second.]

I mean... if it's at home, I should be safe, right? Especially if you're there with me. So I think it would be fine as long as I didn't get in my head about it.

Naw, I won't letcha get all up in your head, don't worry.
I, uh... I can't get drunk no more, myself. Like I'm cursed to be the designated driver... but it means I can keep a good eye on ya, no matter what.

If ya seem like you gettin' weird, I'll just start crackin' more jokes, make ya laugh as hard as I can!

Oh! Well that's very sweet but also, I have not-booze that gets people who aren't capable of getting drunk normally totally wasted? Like it gets robots drunk, that shouldn't be possible. Immortals of all kinds have vouched for its effectiveness.

Ya mean like - that potion? The one Riki sells.

...

[Hang on, he's gotta think on this for a second.]

... You realize that if ya get me wasted, we prolly gonna end up havin' some real sloppy sex, right?
Sloppier than usual from me, anyhow.

Riki's potion just makes you lose your alcohol tolerance, you still have to actually drink the alcohol and let it do its thing. Enkephalin is basically instant.

Also I don't know why I would not want that? Make me a mess, J- sweetheart.

[GOOD GODDAMN SAVE, EVA

The whole idea makes him wheeze-laugh, though - enough so that he's gotta stop and turn to cough into his elbow.
Attractive.]

Goddamn, that sounds like some strong shit!

And, eh... I meant more embarrassin'-sloppy. Well -
No, messy-sloppy, too. But mostly embarrassin'... sayin' all kindsa dumb, sappy shit, horrible aim, the works.

I get goofy-goofy when I'm drunk. Goofy-goofy.

[He'd honestly hate drinking if it didn't make him stupid and giggly, honestly. But it helped him laugh while he was alive... so why wouldn't he enjoy it?]

Oh. Well, that's, um... it might be a little embarrassing, but maybe, kind of, also nice?

[She'll build up her resilience to sappy words, slowly but surely.]

Well... if you want that, I guess I don't mind gettin' sloppy for ya.
No videos or nothin', though. ... Or - no sharin' any videos if ya take'em, anyway.

... At least not without askin' first.

[Is he self-correcting as he talks because he knows she's his girlfriend and thus will want "cute" videos of him, probably also while wanting to share them with good friends?
Yes. He's well aware that this is A Thing Girlfriends Do™ despite never having had a girlfriend, okay.

...? Of course I'd ask you before recording anything? Even if just for personal use.

[She thinks he means sex tapes.]

... "Personal use"?

[Yup, those are some crossed wires happening here and it's, like, 80% his fault.]

Yeah? Like, to be honest, I don't think while you're drunk would be my first choice for a sex tape, but no matter when it was I would still ask you first?

A sex--

[- Oh, okay, no, he's sputtering a little. Covering his mouth with the side of his arm as he does since, y'know, they're still cuddling. But still.]

I meant normal videos, Eveé... y'know - if I'm doin' somethin' stupid or funny, you can record that shit, I don't care!
Just ask 'fore you share'm.

...

I don't care if ya record kinkier shit, either, but you definitely can't share those.

Oh! ...I mean, I have photos of you in a scrapbook? But none of them are especially stupid or funny. Mostly just pictures of you while we're hanging out.

-Am I supposed to be taking videos of you? Is that a girlfriend thing I should be doing?

'S a thing some girlfriends do - not all of'em! Don't feel like you gotta. Just... y'know.
I seen a lotta videos of dudes doin' stupid shit posted by they girlfriends? Usually while on a date or somethin', but not always.

[... He's had to scrawl a lot of social media during his whole Serial Killer Thing:tm:.]

But, y'know... if a picture worth a thousand words, then how much is a video at thirty frames a second worth, ouais?

[Evangeline considers that. Considers sharing a video of Chipp doing something stupid for all her friends to see... why? To make fun of him?

She makes a face, and hugs Chipp tightly.]

I don't think I want to do that.

[Oh, sudden tighter hug -
It's getting returned, of course, with a gentle squeeze... but it's clear he wasn't expecting that, either.]

... Don't want people lookin' in on whatever we doin'?

[That's all he can think of, really, on why she'd have such a sudden reaction to the whole idea.]

Don't want people looking at you doing something silly and making fun of you for it.

[She doesn't like that at all.]

Pfft, aww, Eveé...

[She's getting nuzzled for that one.]

I think the point's to try 'n show off how cute ya boyfriend is. Or girlfriend - I don't doubt you could get some cute-cute videos of the other two.
But I getcha. Scary thought, knowin' you could post somethin' of someone you love only for the whole internet to rip'em apart.

[The nuzzling helps erase her scowl, as does the clarification.]

Oh - cute's different. People can see how cute you are, that's fine. They're just not allowed to be cruel to you.
