[ The fact that it isn't, means he can relax at least some. Half lent forward, running his hand over his face like it might help clear his thoughts. Green eyes over bright, watching her as she moved around the room.
He's drunk, and he has to focus ( focus, focus, focus, like guard patterns and nobles idle chatter, it was all going to be important ) more than he might usually be so obvious about.
What she's saying doesn't make much sense to him. Water was water was water, as far as he knew it. Other than boiling it, he wasn't really sure about the rest of it. So he ignores it, most of it at least, he's gotten used to her saying things he doesn't understand.
So he sits, and says nothing, and when she says more water, he nods. Catching her wrist when she walks close enough. Fingers curling around gently. ]
