Well, at least that was a question that was easy to answer. Jax's smile changed from small and slightly forced to genuine at the offered cup, and he took it from David quickly, completely ignoring the accidental brush of his fingers against the other man's. "Yeah," he said, "I think I can take care of that for you." Drinks were easy. Drunk was easy. Jax stood and brought both David's glass and his own back to his small collection of liquors. Another cup of the sweet pale green liquid for his...friend, and a measure and a half of whisky for him.
Goddammit if everyone was going to be shutting their brains off tonight, Jax was going to be a part of it. "There's probably a party in the bar, now that I'm thinking of it," he remarked with a wry smile, turning back to David and handing him the cordial. "We could pregame that and visit them. As long as you don't accidentally the laws of physics again." And this time the words, the attitude, the smile - all genuine. It was hard to stay upset with David for long, at least in his presence. Later, Jax would probably have some thinking to do, but for now, drunk sounded a hell of a lot better.
