[ Huh - that's interesting, and Claude has a lot more questions about it. Or would if he wasn't busy less casually drinking more of his drink when Rocket starts to sputter himself, so now it's become joint suffering as he sets down his cup and clears his throat again. (It makes no difference.) ]
Nah, a poisoning attempt would be a lot more subtle. [ Comforting! ] Plus I wouldn't poison myself along with you.
[ Even more comforting! Claude almost gets that sentence out without coughing but not without sounding rather hoarse since he's pretty sure there's something stuck there or the peppers have just found a new way to punish him for being daring. Note to self to use a lot less next time, assuming there's gonna be a next time. In the meantime, he glances around the tabletop for something else to help out and grabs a bowl of soft cheese and a plate of bread to put between them. ]
Here, try this. This was all that got me through something I unwittingly tried that wasn't at all tailored to my preferences. Promise it's about as mild as we'll find here.
omg no worries, you're all good! maybe a few tags more and wrap? (i'd love future stuff too!!)
