( she won't outright admit it, but the snarky responses on their first meeting certainly helped paint a favourable picture. he's strange, but hey.
who isn't.
the order is quickly given to a passing bartender, along with her own request for that single malt she mentioned. Kate's attention drifts, briefly, to the rest of the people who've attended, the gentle bustle of a ragtag bunch of acquaintances (friends) that makes everything feel normal and unfamiliar once again.
it's hardly the first time she's thought how easy things are here, how they shouldn't be this easy, given the circumstances. not that she can do anything about it right now, but still—
the clink of glasses setting down on the table shakes her back to the present moment, and Kate blinks a couple of times before she curls a hand around her glass. )
Cheers.
( tonight, anyway, it's best to lean into the easiness. )
