[He doesn't quite grin, but it is the most amused he's looked in days.] Delightfully descriptive. I'd probably have just called it weird and blue.
[He takes another big sip and even if it's not the best thing he's ever had, he enjoys it well enough - well enough to get what he wants for a start, at least. Grell had the right idea.] This might be one of the first times I've ever actually seen you with a drink.
And that was by my own choices. When the war was on, it hardly seemed sensible to drink much - if something was to come up unexpectedly, I wanted a relatively clear head to be able to deal with it.
[it's not a very exciting reason, but she hadn't gone teetotal on you, Bellamy. just something she'd thought of as logical at the time.]
Such a shame, all the times I've missed being able to say to hell with it and let myself go.
[He shrugs it off.] No, I get that. Even back home I didn't really - I didn't like to cloud my senses. I always wanted to be prepared.
[He takes another drink and laughs a little, dryly, 'to hell with it' calling up images of his own 'whatever the hell we want' days.] It's not too late to start now, right? There's plenty more after we finish these. Whatever the hell we want.
[As if to demonstrate, he drains another significant chunk of the blue drink.]
