Grilka rolled eir tongues thoughtfully, a peculiar noise accompanying it. "I think that avoiding the area is what they would usually prefer," ey said, "but where's the fun in that?" Ey tapped the counter so that Xotll would pour em another glass of Krotazi wine, and sighed smoke. "The most peculiar creatures."
Xotll immediately started a harried search of the area behind the bar. While grenadine and various liquors were easy enough to find, there was the matter of the egg. She'd trotted in a full circle before finding one in the fridge. She did a terrible job of cracking the first, and the second, but managed on the third to salvage the egg white into the shaker. She then had to wash her hands before she could actually begin to shake the cocktail in question.
"How lucky," Grilka said, "to have good and generous friends, and to be so very pretty." Ey drank down their wine in one shot again, long since refilled. Ey traced talons along the curve of one horn.
Xotll was still shaking the cocktail.
"By 'taken advantage of'," Grilka wondered, "do you mean tricked into entering an unwise financial contract, or fucked?" Eir tongues darted in his direction. "Idioms can be terribly confusing, and I would like to be clear on what you are trying to avoid."
Xotll finally poured the finished drink into a glass, garnished it with a cherry, and slid it across the counter.
