"You've reached Gustave. I am not available at this time, but feel free to leave me a, what is it, a 'voicemail'? Clever... Ah, I will respond promptly. À bientôt."
[ No, nothing too strong. The both of them have to drive back and she doesn't want her or her friend to be in an accident. So she looks for something vaguely sweet with just a bit of alcohol, something easy to mix and let him try. She grabs some ice and makes him a little orange drink, sliding it over to him. ]
Saw him making something similar. Called a 'Bellini'. Give a try.
[ If he doesn't like it, she'll drink it no problem. But she eyes up the hot dog. ]
Isn't it a little weird? Kind of chewy.
[ She really doesn't like the name of it but apparently it's a sausage, and that's understandable. It just looks odd. ]
( gustave glances at the drink, seeing this orange concoction a little skeptically, but trusting that sciel won't lead him astray. as it were, the hot dog wasn't so bad, even if it's a little dry and kind of chewy, as she states.
he sets the hot dog down, grabs at the drink. )
I imagine this is what over-boiling pâté would be like, if you take out most of its flavor.
( for even if they didn't have a lot, they still managed with some of the few fowls they managed to keep and breed, though there was a definite preference for their eggs in the long-term than their meat. with a tilt of the glass, he takes a sip of the so-called bellini.
after the sip, he takes another, then sets the glass down, pointing at it with his left forefinger. )
[ She laughs a little as she circles back around the bar to sit with him. ]
It's strange. Everything here tastes just slightly off. But perhaps that's the lack of vegetables?
[ And cheese. Real cheese, not this weird floppy nonsense people have been putting on the burgers. She's been mostly avoiding those. But the ample amount of red meat has absolutely changed how she feels a bit. Initially, it was almost nice: more protein, something to make her feel a bit stronger. But it's heavy in contrast to their diet back in Lumière.
She grins about the drink. ]
Good, huh? It was recommended to me one morning. [ Like she should've been drinking that early. ] I watched someone else make it.

This is much, much nicer.
