6th Heart - A Toast to Good Business

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[And here's a sight that's been rare for a while. Jackie has appeared on the Plane, complete with a table. He opens it up and places it down on the Plane, before disappearing again.]

[And then he's back a few moments later. In one hand is a bucket filled with ice and four bottles of high quality champagne. And in the other, a rather large suitcase. He lays these out on the table, opening the suitcase to reveal a good number of wine glasses. He takes one and pours himself some champagne, before setting it down on the table and turning his attention to the rest of the Plane]

Anyone care to join me in a toast?

Sure, why not? Assuming it's not poisoned or something.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

You wound me. Besides, poisoning isn't my style. [Sharp grin as he pours you a glass. Take it however you want.]

[contract_star]

[Mildly,] Not mine, either. [Drinks!]

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Good. [And takes a sip of his]

[contract_star]

Ah, this isn't bad.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

No, it's not. 1988 seemed to be a good year.

[contract_star]

I don't know much about wines and such. [Another sip.]

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Can't say I do either, but I know a few things. Comes with the territory, it seems.

[contract_star]

I suppose it must. Not for me, though, unfortunately.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Oh? And what territory do you make home in?

[contract_star]

The kind where you know only what you need to know.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Pauses for a moment, before sipping again.]

Dangerous territory.

[contract_star]

Quite. [Hei is really more amused by all this back and forth than he is cautious anymore.]

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Gotta love it, and he lifts his glass up] Then here's to the hope that you never know too much.

[contract_star]

Too late. [And drinks.]

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

In that case, here's to hoping your territory doesn't become your grave site. [And drinks]

[contract_star]

[Almost says "too late" again but stops himself. He drains his glass.]
