Don't drink it all. You'll probably feel worse than just keeping the hangover.
( She had never made any claims that this cure was nice, just that it worked. Sometimes the best curse was a nasty thing - and this was. Good luck, hope you've got a good stomach )
I'm surprised more people don't end up drunk here.
( Or maybe they did. Maybe she didn't look for it )
no subject
[Feeling worse, that is. It helps that this isn't strictly a hangover--just a hangovery feeling, an absorption of someone else's something. 'Hangover' is the neatest way to describe it, and rolls off the fingers easier than the real explanation.
But this potion ("potion", muggle style) has got to be better than gritting teeth and bearing it. Hair of the dog, isn't that what they say? For dogs, that can be a bit close to home. Sirius accepts the concoction regardless.]
Have you spent much time in the space pubs? There's always a customer or two. Or three. Or someone amassing a collection to take home. It helps that there isn't much else to do.
no subject
( Not after the friend that she somehow ended up in a space pub with every month left the ship. It wasn't a reluctance to go based on that, more just not having a reason to go - a friend to sit and talk with with a drink. She'd ended up throwing herself into Gunnery even more instead )
Let me guess. You're one of those frequent fliers.
( Well, he seems to know how it goes anyway )
no subject
I've been here for an awfully long time.
[Like this is an excuse: either out of boredom, or out of a desperate attempt to cope.]
Can't say that I've ever been challenged to arm wrestle. Congratulations on being an exception to normalcy.
no subject
( Not really, but it has been known. But, because he mentioned it, she'll put her arm up on the bar, fingers wiggling for a few seconds )
Have you actually arm wrestled before?
( Well, if he hasn't here- )
no subject
[--He answers, with full confidence, and bangs his arm up on the bartop as well, with answering finger wiggle.
But before he takes her hand or anything, he clarifies:]
Once. Or twice. You?
no subject
( Usually to settle pissing contests. It ended up being a good method, even if she hated having to prove herself. This time was just a friendly challenge - her challenge. No proof required.
Maria moves to grip his hand, gently at first before adding the slightest bit of pressure )
On three?
no subject
[--With just a little bit of pressure back, to confirm: game on.]
One, two-- three--
[Not rushed, and he doesn't throw his weight into the contest early or anything. Playing by the rules. Surprised? Don't be. Marauder sensibilities aside, he is still a Gryffindor.
But now that there's been a three, he's in, and he shoves against her hand, a good strong shove.]
no subject
So out of these matches- ( The one or two arm wrestles he's had before ) How many have you won?
no subject
[Content to remain at matched odds for the moment, Sirius gives back just enough pressure to keep the side up. He also manages to shrug, entirely dismissive of the question.]
My fair share. I don't like to brag. What about you, then?
no subject
( Which was a mixed bag. She won some, she lost some. She won a lot that people didn't expect from her. Maria liked making her point )
This- ( She pushes just a little harder, tipping their arms a bit ) -first for fun. For a while.
no subject
For awhile?
[He answers with a little push of pressure of his own, a quick show of strength. 'Cos he's no weakling, thanks.]
How long?
no subject
( Closer to eight. She stopped having to prove herself a long time ago, and found better ways if anyone tried challenging that later )
I could be out of practice.
( Only at arm wrestling. There's a lot of other training she does )
no subject
[And on the last syllable of twice, he leans into her arm, his grip tight. First real bid for the upper hand, as it were.]
no subject
Isn't keeping you on your toes more interesting?
( To figure her out you either need to ask the right questions or be really good. No one just gets it without effort )
Did you arm wrestle with wizards or non-wizards?
no subject
He keeps his grip where it is, muscle behind his arm. Not letting up.]
Oh, non-wizards. Muggle-borns if anything. Wizards have an aversion to the physical. Why arm wrestle when you can duel?
no subject
( Maria lessens a little of the push that she's giving out, letting him push her arm over a little and pretend to try and hold it up. Just for a moment or two )
Why are you different?
( She'll take his answer and then push back - hard )
no subject
[His grin widens, when she pushes back--even though it means that he's got to put a little more force into his grip, even though he can feel the inexorable pressure of her hand against his, a force that leans at his whole arm--but again, it's the challenge that he likes; the challenge is brilliant--]
And different. Mostly adaptable. You didn't warn me, y'know.
