[ A couple days after her stint in jail, Nott:

1. Does a shot at the Sweetsong.
2. Uses this liquid courage to dash across the gangplank onto the Revelry and into the bar, looking at the water as little as possible on the way.
3. Climbs onto the bar, takes a bottle of rum, and wanders off to a corner booth to drink a quarter of it.
4. Belches, like a lady.
5. Opens her tome. ]

Heyyyyy, Vax, I have a question if you're up. You can reply to this message.

Yeah, I know how the tomes work. [With a little chuckle.] What's up, Shortstack?

Sure sure, okay, so, I am ... [ Glug. ] Don't take this personally. I'm getting drunk.

The thing you said a while back. About trying anything once? You meant that, huh?

Youcanreplytothismessage.

I was saying I'd fuck you if you were into it, yeah. [Just so we're all clear.]

Yes, thank you, Prince Charming, I got it the first time, I was trying to be classy about this booty call but fuck me I guess!

[ Throat-clearing. ]

But, uh, I do mean -- fuck me, I guess?

[ GLUG. ]

Hey, it's just worth being clear about these things! [He's also kind of picking up a sense that it's worth an extra measure of caution with her. He's had consent and communication on the brain lately, and something about Nott seems like she needs the clarity.]

You wanna come meet me in the Winter wing? I'll leave the door cracked so you know which one.

Oh -- just like that! Sure, yeah. Don't know what else I expected honestly. Yeah, uh. Gimme a few minutes.

This isn't weird, is it? No, I mean, scratch that, I know it's weird, but I mean it as a -- I'm not trying to be rude, sometimes that just comes naturally.

[ Either the sense of caution is mutual, or Nott's just that nervous at the moment. Most likely, por que no los dos. ]

It's not rude, nah. Or if it is, it's an acceptable rude. I've messaged people for just this purpose plenty.

All right. [ There's a wry humor in her voice. ] Cool cool cool. I will meet you over in the Winter wing.

[ And she will bring her rum with her. Thank you, Beauregard, for sponsoring this hook-up. ]
