In retrospect, he should have stopped sometime after the seventh drink. Or was it his eighth? ...How much did he drink last night? There was the flagon of mead, various bottles of beer, he dimly remembers assorted tiny glasses of...something....

With a groan, he holds his head in his hands. This thinking thing was making his headache worse. He eventually managed to pull himself off the bathroom floor and stumbled outside, one hand still over his eyes. Light just seemed to rake across his cornea. Of course, blind, it's very easy to walk right into something. Or someone.

He takes it, examining it first. "I just swallow this?"

It's such a...little thing. This actually works?

"Mhmm! That's right! It's best to wash it down with water."

"I can get it." He struggles to his feet, swaying when he's finally standing. He laughs. "No more strange drinks for me."

"Yes, I'm sure you'll stick to that," Whether it was a jab or simply teasing, it's hard to say.

Why can't it be both? Gwaine will take it as both.

"Your vote of confidence is inspiring. Truly." He's far from offended, though, as he makes the trek to the kitchen to get some water.

"Hey, I speak the truth!"

He makes a half-dismissive noise of assent. He doesn't bother grabbing a cup and cups a hand under the faucet's stream, taking a drink straight from it.

He sees that and grimaces some... the gentleman in Allen is rather disgusted. What a barbaric way to drink water, my lord.

He doesn't notice and, if he had, he wouldn't actually care. He shuts off the faucet and leans against the sink for a while, massaging his head.
