That was the same for me, but you’ll get used to it fast. It was weird at first because I didn’t realize something could be so sweet and also knock you on your ass? So be careful. The hangovers are killer.

[ which seems a little counter intuitive, as steve makes sure to fill vash’s cup to the very top. but if the slight red tint to steve’s face is anything to go by, he’s indulging a bit too. it’s a wedding, after all! and what else are you supposed to do at weddings if not drink?

he reaches over and shakes the offered hand, completely and totally not even noticing if there was any natural vs. prosthetic hand choosing going on.

the way vash says interesting has steve chuckling as he sits back into his seat with his own cup. ] That’s one way to put it. [ which is to say, not all good and not all bad. steve might seem pretty well settled, but he can understand the feeling. feels it now, even. he lets out a breath. ]

Welcome to Solvunn. [ is that sarcasm? maybe a little. ] It doesn’t always look like this.
