"There you go!" she laughs and pours herself a shot as well, though she savors it more. Or maybe she's just trying to wring what little taste she can pick up on out of it.

Given that their minds are still entwined, Miriam can get a bit of what Sam is tasting, the burn in the back of her throat, and so forth.

"I'll warn you, 'elegant' and 'dignified' are probably going out the window here," she smirks as she pours another.

I would hope not. That would make things much more awkward and complicated.

"What's the point of having a designated driver or two if you're not going to take advantage of it." she says, pouring herself another glass. "And I shall grant you a pass on the elegance. Just don't go all the way to sloppy." she laughs.

Oh, she's fine with a mess, as long as she's not the one cleaning it up. A mess-maker, not a mess-handler.

"I didn't ask to be put on blast like this but when you're right you're right." she sighs, followed by a bit of a chuckle.

If the two of you didn't want a degree of sass, there were plenty of options off the rack, above and beyond being all-powerful telepaths!

We all have our roles to play. Some of us just go more method than others.

"That explains why you've been a bit more tolerable lately." she says before she can think better of it. "I kid, I kid!" she adds, for once in her life.

Miriam stares at Sam for a couple of quite uncomfortable seconds.

"I'm trying really hard to figure out what the right way to take that is..." she finally says.

If sleeping on a zenned-out mattress every night won't do it, then nothing will.

We all stay true to our core selves at the end of the day.

Even if that core self is deep in the morbs.
