One Of These Is A Lie

[deathstouch]

Is two the lie?

I do not believe I've met anyone that would prefer tea completely plain.

[remarkablymodest]

You are correct, ser.
It is a small indulgence, but I enjoy birch syrup in my tea.

[deathstouch]

A fine choice.

[remarkablymodest]

What do you enjoy in your tea, ser?

[deathstouch]

Would you judge me if I say vodka?

[remarkablymodest]

Not in the slightest.
In fact, I would say to that you might be the kind of company I'd like to keep.

[ For as prim and proper as he acts, Aymeric isn't unknown to enjoy a good stiff drink from time to time. ]

[deathstouch]

Vodka is my additive and drink of choice, I must admit.

[remarkablymodest]

Certainly not a bad choice.
Well, considering you don't have any other obligations.
I imagine not here, at least, all things considered.

[deathstouch]

In most places I do not have very many obligations but it has not particularly ever impaired me too deeply.

[ Unfortunately at times. ]

[remarkablymodest]

You have a high tolerance, then?

[deathstouch]

Yes. I have had some time to build it up.

[remarkablymodest]

How much time would that be?
If it isn't impolite of me to ask.

[deathstouch]

Several millennia.

[remarkablymodest]

That is quite the remarkable lifespan, ser Aric.
Is such longevity common in your realm?

[deathstouch]

It is not common at all, only me so far as I know.

[remarkablymodest]

That sounds quite isolating.
My apologies.

[deathstouch]

I am used to it.

[remarkablymodest]

Then I am even more apologetic.
No one should be used to such a thing.

[deathstouch]

In some ways I deserve it so perhaps the apologies aren't strictly necessary.

[remarkablymodest]

Why would you consider yourself deserving of such a thing?

[deathstouch]

I have done many horrible things.

[remarkablymodest]

I have not met a man yet who has no regrets.
I also find 'horrible' to be a rather loaded word.

[deathstouch]

Perhaps it is, rightfully so.

[remarkablymodest]

From what I have seen thus far,
it is not a label I would apply to you currently.

[deathstouch]

Things here are very different.

[remarkablymodest]

That is certainly an understatement.
There are no shortages of differences between my world and this.
Though hopefully for you, they are for the better.

[deathstouch]

It is, somewhat. In some ways it isn't much better.

[remarkablymodest]

Does the good at least outweigh the things that might not be as much improved?

[deathstouch]

That's difficult to measure.
