[she slowly picks herself up, mostly so she can hug otome proper.]
Nobody... [she starts, and then stops. she's drunk, but maybe not enough to just let that much vulnerability out. instead she rests her head on otome's shoulder.]
[ Otome leans into the hug, resting one hand at the back of Beau's head. Of course, she's still concerned that Beau drank way too much, but also. Beau is an adult. And if the hangover kicks in, then good thing her girlfriend is a doctor. ]
I did tell you that most of my dates were one-offs, I think. So I'm not too sure about that.
Can you tell me more about them? I know Caleb and Molly... Jester and Yasha you mentioned, as both being very strong and wonderful. And Fjord? Has tusks?
Oh - yeah. Yeah, you'd - uh, you'd like Yasha. You remind me of her a little.
[yawn.] Jester's a little ball of sunshine. Everybody's in love with her. And, um. Fjord's my captain. We stole a ship, like a pirate ship? And I'm his first mate.

I thought maybe I'd scared you away. But I like you a lot too, Beau.
no subject
[another pause.] You're just really pretty, and really nice. And I never want to... I didn't want to... I wasn't gonna push if you didn't want.

[ She sighs, a little softly. ]
But you're a little too hard to resist, you know.

Well. Obviously you are too.

no subject
No, it just means all the people were - were too fucking dumb to see how special you are.
no subject
I think you might just be biased. Not that I'm not flattered.

I wouldn't be like this with you right now. Things tend to work out in strange ways.
no subject
... Yeah. Yeah, that's true. [a beat.] I'm - really, I'm really into my job? My whole thing. At home. So we'd... we would figure it out.
[hums.] Things work out.
no subject
[ she says it a little tentatively. ]
no subject
I don't just want you because you're a doctor, you know. [huff.] Magic has limits. Sometimes s'good to have someone who knows what they're doing.
no subject
Sorry, I wasn't implying that you'd only want me for my job. I just like to be useful, wherever I go.
no subject
You'd be useful even if you weren't doing your job, because I like you, and so would the Nein.

[ She means it, honestly. And it's nice to hear more about the people Beau is so fond of, even though she didn't miss that yawn. ]
... I should probably get you back to your dorm soon, though. I think you're starting to fade.
no subject
Stay with me. [she pouts, clinging.]
no subject
no subject
You could come with me to the dorm.

no subject
Yeah. Yeah, c'mon. S'cold.
no subject
But she'll push herself properly to her feet, reaching down to help Beau up just as carefully. ]
