And she easily opens the door a crack if she wishes

She slips inside, quietly.

He is humming a tune Early One morning? Something like that as he puts more clothes in drawers, seeing her not.

Her stealth is ruined by a whiff of a giggle.

He turns, and a smile spreads "My humming that bad?"

"Nay, tis pleasing."

"I hath brought thee a libation. Tis most wicked."

"A libation? Why, beloved, are you seeking to take advantage?" But even as he asks he takes the glass from her gently, "Because I approve." He sips it , then says "Fruity, not too sweet. What's is it?"

"A - pray, forgive the name, Fiona - a 'fungeon."

She raises her half empty one, offering a toast.

Hers has a distinct whiff of fermentation.

He raises his own glass in response "Fungeon eh? Are we toasting to Fiona word play?"

"Toasting some kind of play."

"The kind to keep one so very warm in winter, methinks."

" I will toast to that" He clinks his glass against hers lightly "To warmth through ...some kind of play"

She darts in, stealing a kiss on his cheek.

"I like this drink already " He chuckles as he's caught, delightfully, off guard by her kiss, and takes a deeper drink ready to kiss her, "It seems nice, I..." It settles in then realizes the full effect "Oh... this thing is treacherous."

Earl's not knew to shine, ciders, or the the like, this is a new one

"Mmm. Delicious treachery."

"I notice my glass is a bit larger than yours"

"well, thou art quite a bit taller."

"The further to fall down" He stares at the now half glass "Okay, this has a kick. Taste" And he tries to kiss her on the lips

She lets him succeed, lips parting.

They savor each other, with flavoring for ...quite a time. One breath shared between them, dangerous if you think about it, one breathe, two lives.

Zara has VERY clever hands, which find lots of places to go.

And his hands, nimble for such large ones, chase after hers, as if to grasp by her wrists and hold her in place. The drinks are now forgotten on a cabinet top... but it must be said they certainly were a lovely inspiration

She leads a chase, but that's a very happy sound when her Hunter catches her.
