[attr="class","illeana i"]she laughs. a tinkering sort of sound, more free than usual. tequila does wonders for easing worries (and everything else) out of the mind.

she follows his lead. their drinks are finished in quick fashion and as the waitress passes by, she asks for another round.

"i wouldn't?" her head turns back toward him once the waitress shifts away to put in their drink orders. her smile morphs into a sharpening dagger. "want to test that hypothesis, greyson?"

he chuckles dryly, challengingly, as he takes a whiff of the new drink. "hm, what benefit is there to me in that arrangement?" his lips quirk into a coy smile, alcohol fueling a confidence he keeps hidden.

"i already know i would win, so what benefit would there be for me to simply prove it?"

[attr="class","illeana i"]a challenge is issued, met, and risen above.

her drink is raised and sipped as if she's contemplating. it tastes of a shit ton of tequila and sweet, sweet victory.

"there's plenty benefit," she flashes a coy smile as her glass returns to the table. it clinks softly and her voice lowers.

"for one, the oh so compromising position twister causes."

he places two fingers underneath his chin in thought. it was of course, satirical, and only meant to get a rise out of the scientist.

"hm, nothing is coming to mind. do you have an example?" he smiles sweet and innocently.

[attr="class","illeana i"]she laughs. openly, defiantly. the rise succeeds in some regard, perhaps.

"are you asking for a demonstration?" her smile mirrors his. sweet, sugary, masking. "or are you simply wishing to recount experience?"

she could give either, really.

greyson narrows his eyes, shifting them left, then right, at all the people seated around them. the ambiance of the room was loud due to the dozens of different conversations, so he wasn't nervous anyone would hear them, but...

"tell me, illie, how would you demonstrate here?" that would be a sight to see, in more ways than one.

[attr="class","illeana i"]she's not concerned about being heard. not now, anyway. besides, she's developed a particular candor with these topics...

her eyes flitter toward the patrons, the bar, and the small corridor beyond. somewhere in the shadows beckons for a show.

"bathrooms, alleys," she muses. a laugh brings with it her eyes, sharp and bright. "or simply taking the food to go."

his chuckle becomes nervous again, and a bit exasperated at how serious she was being, despite her tone. he takes another healthy sip of his alcohol, contemplating the thoughts as they muddle with alcohol.

"those are... interesting places," he plays his hand carefully, eyes narrowing slightly. "did you want to take it to go?"

of course, that was also a neatly way of asking a different question...

[attr="class","illeana i"]she plucks her drink back up with a smile, trying to hide her amusement behind a big sip of margarita. it does little to quell the tension buzzing at the edges of a table.

and when he plays his hand carefully, she doesn't fold. on the contrary, she raises the stakes by leaning across the table. her stare is curious, if not a little heated.

"do you?"

the heat rises again, more powerful than the one already in his cheeks from the alcohol. he avoids her gaze, looking off to the side.

"y-yeah, i'm sure it won't be as loud either, if we take it to go." when the waitress returns, he lets her know. thankfully the food was nearly ready, and didn't put them out of any real effort."

in the meantime, he drinks. he drinks a lot.

[attr="class","illeana i"]he avoids her eyes but the confirmation is the same: a yes.

she grins, unashamed in excitement. and while the waitress preps their food to be taken home, she joins him in his endeavor to drink the nerves away. there's a buzzing between them, a coiled tension waiting to snap.

her second and third drinks are finished before the boxes arrive. and she can't help herself from leaning closer, lips finding his ear.

"it'll be a fun game of twister, i promise."

her breathe is hot on his ears and greyson's blush turns to discomfort beneath the table. he clears his throat, moving away from her whisper to take another sip.

"i'll hold you to that," is all the confidence he can muster, despite how flustered he felt right now, "i'll hold you to it." eventually, the woman does return with the (now) boxed food, and he thanks her with a generous tip.

once the cool wind of outside hits he smiles against it, stretching slightly. greyson turns to illeana with an eyebrow raised.

"so which house are we eating at?"

[attr="class","illeana i"]there's a lot he could hold to her. she doesn't say a thing, however. instead, she flashes a grin and sips the remainders of her last drink.

by the time the waitress returns with the boxed food, illeana's flushed and a little more free than before. she thanks the woman with a warm smile and bids her a good night as the cold awaits them.

"hmm," she hums, head tilting to one side then the next as if weighing the options. his or hers? she supposes, in the end, it doesn't matter when the result will be the same. and with a warm hand reaching for his, she tugs softly. "mine?"

the hand that reaches for his is soft, and warm. he accepts it, though he's still quite nervous about this change of pace. contemplating the options, and her choice, he shrugs and nods.

"sure, it's probably closer than mine anyways." he didn't have much alcohol at his either and had a sneaking suspicion illeana did.

wonder what her place looked like?

[attr="class","illeana i"]he's right. she does have a lot of alcohol at home.

and eventually, after she swings their connected hands the whole way, they stumble upon her doorstep. a quick jingle of keys and the lock clicks open.

shrugging off her shoes, she steals a glance at him before flashing a smile.

"make yourself at home."
