[ It's said with laughter in his voice like he's clearly charmed by this grumping.
Either way, he's only gone for a few minutes before returning with 1. a variety of snacks, which he pours out into the grass next to the bed, 2. a variety of liquor bottles, which he brings into the bed, and 3. a warm washcloth that he drops onto Aliza's forehead. ]
[ Had made his way onto his side and started to stroke her hair, but he stills a little in response to that. ]
—Heh. Wouldn't say no.
[ He shouldn't drink on an empty stomach. Shouldn't. It's tempting anyway. Can he reach a snack from here...
It takes him an embarrassing few seconds to recognize that Venti's bed is nestled at the base of a giant tree, but like, then he's definitely gonna try to plant-kinesis the snacks more into range.
(Somehow this is better than asking Venti to sit up again?????) ]
[ There's a soft snort as he watches the vines crawl over to the alcohol, but Aliza's comment gets him to prop himself on one elbow, peering down at both of them. ]
I'm too exhausted to sit up and look at you incredulously, if that answers your question.
[ She reaches out blindly and grasps around a bit, get back over here you ]
Exhausted and a lot of other things. [ She was just unchained a few hours before this awful game so yeah not great. In a way her being here voluntarily instead of running away some more is all the proof one could ask for. ]
[ hey for the record the vines are reaching for snacks, the alcohol he could grab himself if he wanted it first ] [ Just keeps on petting Zari's hair for a long moment. He's still so sorry about the chains, but he doesn't wanna get into it again, especially when they're both so tired.
So, instead he asks, exceedingly dry: ]
Are hostage games always so much fun?
[ Venti are you close enough to also pet, work with a guy here. ]
Re: Day 503 (post unchaining, post hostage game)
Aliza in particular gets a lingering look. ]
Wait here, then. As a rare treat, Venti will wait on you! Just like the maid cafe.
Re: Day 503 (post unchaining, post hostage game)
As long as you're back here soon enough. [ She's sort of cold and has more burrowing to do ]
Re: Day 503 (post unchaining, post hostage game)
Not like the maid cafe. [ Vague little gesture with one hand, absolutely not lifting his head. ] No master crap.
[ Just say no to Venti calling you master, kids, but he's not into it from anyone else either. Other framing devices for D/s can stay, though. ]

There, see? Punctual service!
[ Flopping onto the bed himself, hello ]
Re: Day 503 (post unchaining, post hostage game)
[ No interest at all in the snacks ]
[ Muffled from somewhere in the pile: ] That game sucked. I want a do-over of this entire week.
