Three Thousand Club
Asuna clasps her hands reassuringly around Manato's as he offers the flask, her expression a living portrait of compassionate understanding, "My condolences." She doesn't know her father well, or particularly like him, so it's difficult for her to really empathise, but she doesn't like seeing Manato in pain.
She accepts the flask, holding it up to her nose and inhaling deeply, eyes closed, as she answers, "Well, I only have seven nights of hard drinking with you until the end of the world. I'd scarcely miss one. I do have one last duty to fulfill first." Her eyes widen slightly as she holds the flask up to her lips and takes a sip, letting the thick liquid roll around on her tongue experimentally. "This is... really good. What was I...? Mm, Satori needs to be massaged." She takes another sip and savours it. "Important she stays on board, and doesn't melt down. What is this? Coffee, and chocolate, and... spices?" She takes a mouthful and again savours the taste for several seconds, eyes closed, before swallowing. "Valuable assets. Asset. Being very professional. Only reason I'm meeting her alone in the gardens," she says, the picture of innocence. She takes another swig, "Breath of Hesiesh, what have I been doing with my life? How did I survive without you, Manato? Do you have more of this?" She channels water essence to draw out a bubble of the rich black liquid to float above her fingers, examining it with wonder for a few moments before bringing it up to her lips to drink with obvious relish. She glances up at Manato and clutches the flask to herself possessively. "Were you done with this flask?" she asks, hopeful.
[Definitely taking a Minor Tie of Love for Manato's Spiced-Chocolate-Coffee-Thing. Also definitely not holding the scene, just being silly. I know some of us are eager to get to the bits where we punch Anathema instead of just talk a lot about punching Anathema. I would like Asuna to talk to Satori to see if she can get her intimacies up to Major, learn more about her, and check on her mental health, but I'm totally fine with it being woven in with stuff other people want to do later tonight/tomorrow. Not sure if we're time skipping to the end of the week and just outlining plans for preparations, or if there are going to be scenes every day.]
