God, that was weird. Like, cool, but weird. Creepy when he remembered what that little golden tendril could do. Kari was friends with a lot of scary things, though. You could be friends with something without letting your guard down around it. Which was a good thing, really, or else no one would ever have any friends, probably.
"That sounds intensely unpleasant," Kari said, wrinkling his nose. "Then again, that might just be because I think getting tased fucking blows. Maybe it feels different second hand." Creepy. Very creepy. Kari didn't think it was really aware of that, though. It didn't seem like Grilka--saying scary things deliberately, to manipulate, each reminder dropped carefully to steer someone into the proper place. No, it was more like it just didn't have a strong grasp on what would and would not be deeply unsettling to the average human.
"I can do you one better," Kari said, standing up. "Once we get there, we'll get you some Krotazi wine. Bartender has a stock. If that doesn't fuck your sensors up, nothing will."
"Alright, lemme just..." Kari grabbed both the glasses they'd used, dumped the contents, and threw them in his bag. "You might wanna stand back for this bit. I was gonna do the old 'accidentally gored to death by the taxidermy' trick, but I think I'm gonna make a mess for the sake of whoever comes in here next."
Kari squatted back down by the mini-fridge, tucking the skirts of his dress up around his thighs, and pulled out a bottle before smashing it loudly against the bar and hurling them remnants idly across the room. "You want in on this?" he offered before chucking another bottle against a wall. "There's a bottle of red wine in here I guarantee would be spectacularly fun to smash."
