[Yeah, so it's super not a big deal at all.]

You were really drunk last night, so don't worry about it. [Alcohol excused everything, right?]

You don't have to apologize.

[logomachist]

[Alcohol definitely excuses nothing.

But... he'll get used to this. Maybe. Later.]

If you're sure.

[epiny]

Yeah.

[She rolls her eyes.]

Are you sure?

[logomachist]

...yeah.

[He'll get used to it. Or, more accurately, he'll bury himself under a pile of work and slowly forget about the whole thing.]

Let's... not, though. While we're-- hm.

[epiny]

[Eponine raises an eyebrow. Oh, not in front of the kids.]

They've heard it all before. But alright. If you say so.

[logomachist]

While intoxicated, I mean.

[All of this would have been easier to sort through if he could remember it.]

[epiny]

I wasn't hoping for a repeat performance. You're not that cute.

[logomachist]

[That, happily, gets the brief sketch of a grin flitting across his lips again.]

It's a deal, then.

[epiny]

Definitely.

[logomachist]

What, last night?

[epiny]

In general.

[She shrugs, because it's a joke.]

[logomachist]

[Well, at least that's good self-confidence.]

Hm.

[epiny]

What?

[Go ahead, say she's ugly. She's heard it before.]

[logomachist]

Just listening.

[It's the thing he's worst at, but he's making the effort.]

[epiny]

[Eponine frowns, suspicious.]

...Okay...? [She helps to box up some of the food.]
