BETHANY. EMPRISE. idk timewimey.
'Course, there are the times that goes too far, and he's suspecting that he's gotten himself into that. Again. Probably his fault, though he'd contend that the Hawkes are so bloody minded that if he could get Bethany to not try and out drink him, then they may as well make him Divine and given him one of them fancy hats. Nugs would fly, dragons would breath butterflies instead of fire or lightning or whatever nightmare you've gotta deal with.
Reality is that, instead, he is sitting in tavern in the middle of nowhere (because that's what this place is just about reduced to) sipping a stein of what Orlesians let pass for ale (not actually bad, but he has to object at least a little, just on principle) while one of the barmaids sets down another in front of each of them. It's Bethany 's that he eyes for a long moment before speaking.
"You sure you need another one?" Fond. Amused, faintly exasperated, but fond. They all need to cut loose, if they wanna survive. Just need to make sure that things don't fall apart in that window, as they tend to.
Re: BETHANY. EMPRISE. idk timewimey.
She had planned on just turning around and hitting the road again, but she found Hercules standing there with his hand absently petting Max, his gaze distant as he looked off to the mountains. She knew that look - it was the Chuck Look. So she got down to pet Max, and bet Hercules spilling his current feelings on a drinking contest.
Oh ... she knew she wouldn't win (sigh, she never won.) But taking care of her would help Herc with his 'fatherly instincts' right now, so she'd take the hit, and the hangover.
It was common knowledge that Bethany, by Warden standards, was a light-weight. Three ales in and she was already listing to the side a little. She blinked at Herc, slowly, before she beamed happily at him, "Of course I do! It's a ...a drinking contest, not a stop .. .drinking contest. One more, please, of your delicious ales."
That beaming smile was turned to the waitress, who smiled back despite herself, before putting the next mug in front of Bethany. Bethany put on a ... 'trying to be determined face' which fell right into another grin. "These are soooooooo big, Herc. They're like ... the ogres of mugs."

"All right." Like he's going to win an argument with drunk Bethany, though his expression is somewhere between fond and concerned.
"Ogres of mugs?" She's won a warm chuckle from him, at least, even if it's quiet. "That'll make for a gruesome hangover, you know," Herc adds, sipping his own ale. "You reckon there's a mug for every darkspawn variety out there? Maybe a genlock, or a shriek."
This could be an interesting or terrible conversation, and when next the barmaid wanders by, he's just discretely asking for a couple of waters. Just to have it to hand.
Re: emerges from under the rl swamp yaaay
She punched her hand into her palm, then made various faces of pain. "Ow. That ... Really hurt my fingers."
There might be a pout now, Herc.

As for the 'ow,' Herc just has one hand resting over his mouth, looking at her with a mix of concern and trying-not-to-smile.
"Maybe you oughta slow down. Don't know your own strength, it seems like."
no subject
She made another face, before she reached for the mug.
"I am ... quite strong. For a mage. And a girl. A girly mage." She laughed a little at that. "A mage that is made up of girl and mana, that's me."
no subject
A shrug, easy. People are a little ridiculous, he reckons. Nothing to fuss about.
"That you are. Can't say that I think that girls are any less strong than boys be default." A quiet, rough laugh. "Actually, there was this kid that used to give Chuck a real run for his money. Can't remember her name for the life of me, but he always tried to figure out how to win a fight against her, and he never once got it right."
Hilarious. Definitely hilarious, and he shakes his head at the memory, fond, before take another draw of his ale. "And don't think for a moment that I imagine you gave your sister or your brother an easy time."
no subject
She'd fireball the first person who said she didn't.
A beaming smile, "See? Girls can whip boys, but good, and I could whip them all with a KAPOW. Right to the head." She shook her head so hard, she nearly fell off the chair. "Never gave them the chance to have a diffucult time. Too busy ... sorting arguments. Always the reasonable one, like."
no subject
On the other hand, suddenly Bethany is talking about nudity and he exhales a rough chuckle. "We'll find you a nice Nevarran, someday. There's bound to be some friendly ones around here."
The Councillor and the Seeker are probably not the people Bethany wants on such a list, though, he's guessing. "I'd say it means we have better taste," he agrees, amused and placating, "but I also like brown leather and fur, and I hear that's not all the rage these days."
As she wobbles with the shake of her head, Herc places a steadying hand on her elbow, waiting to need to grab her if she topples. In his experience, it's harder to get a drunk back onto a chair from the floor than it is to stop them toppling in the first place. "Life's hard when you're the diplomat," he agrees. "Got you plenty of practice for keeping the Wardens in line, though." Bright side? Maybe not so much.
no subject
"Hmmm ... friendly ones have never been the problem. Brave ones? That's a whooooole different contest." She waved her hand a little, before she nodded her head furiously. "We do. And pffff ... leather and fur look good. We have the best...bestest breeches in all of Thedas. Ask anyone who likes people in tight ...er ... lower garments."
She straightened, giving him a grateful smile, before nodding her head furiously again, "It Is! I don't mind being nice because I am nice but sometimes ... I wish people could just be ... nicer. You know?"
