@babatoes sent: "hey, hey wait—!! don't even think about throwing another rock at me. or you'll miss out on this." lithe hands then presents a bottle of wine yet to be opened.

“Throw is an exaggeration,” he rectifies, nearly a scoff as the momentary irritation passes through him. Morax has had several lifetimes to acquire a learned man’s patience yet without fail manages to fall back on old habits when it concerns Barbatos.

Alcohol produced by the Dawn Winery’s faculties possesses an acidity complementary to many traditional Liyuen dishes, an auspicious blend of cultures.
“You’re late. Again, I might add.” The sun overhead inches towards the horizon, daylight dwindling.
