I honestly don't know. I'm sure we'll head back at least for a little while, at least long enough for my knighting ceremony.

[And Vi's, of course.]

I hope we get to relax, though, even if it's only for a little while.

[She sits down at the table, and quietly hopes that they...don't try to card her if she drinks that wine. 8D]

[Archer would probably pull a gun on them if they did... so for their sake I hope not.]

I dunno... I've had about enough "relaxing" sitting around a crummy Chicago Hotel, breathing smog and God-knows-what every day. Not to mention, it's literally been days since I've shot at anyone.
[Not months. Not weeks. Days.]

The ceremony will be a blast though.
[Oh look - There's the wine! Cheers!]

[notaroundme]

[She chuckles, because honestly, she has to give him that.]

I think we could use a break from being in the same small space as each other all the time. I just want...a party. I would even settle for another squiring party at this point.

[That's more what she meant by relaxing tbh.

She picks up the wine glass, lifting it toward him to clink glasses. Cheers!]

Oh we are definitely having one hell of a party, you're getting promoted after all. We'll spare no expense, with Wynn's money.

[And with that, he drinks some of the ridiculously expensive wine, and orders himself some Lobster and Steak.]

Biggest party in the history of the organization - until Finnick gets sober for a long enough time to promote me. Who knows when that will happen, though, may be a while.

[notaroundme]

If my party is big, I can't even imagine what yours will be like.

[She orders filet mignon, and drinks some of that wine too. A few really long sips, actually. Gotta calm down those jitters.]

Well, you know how Finnick is. Someone just needs to take his booze away sometimes. He's going to hurt himself.

[Also the whole promotion thing might require Archer to put his gun away from more than two seconds, and l o l.

Funny, though, that Archer is almost a better functioning alcoholic...]

[isisagent]

He's definitely more interesting now, than when I first met him. If he's going to keep drinking like this, I'm going to have to teach him how to handle his liquor though...

[Archer has made a career out of high-function alcoholism. He's got many tricks to teach Finnick, lol.]

[notaroundme]

[Hey she had boyfriends back home that were the exact same way...if she remembered them.]

If there's anything I've learned about him, it's that Finnick is going to do what he wants, so if you think it'll help...

[She only really hates it because Myri.]

[isisagent]

Well... It'll help us put up with him, if nothing else. [Said Archer. :l ]

Anyway, Elena - seriously though, a toast to you. [He lifts his glass up.] You've been the only other person on this team consistently kicking ass since I've been here, not to mention the upcoming promotion, and all that... doppel-stuff...

You're probably the only member of the team I'm not embarrassed to be seen in public with. So... Here's to you - and also, [He winds up and shakes his hands like people do when they're announcing a surprise...] Happy Valentine's Day! [Even Archer couldn't help but remember what day it was, considering the restaurant is covered in hearts and roses... and a giant 'Happy Valentine's Day' banner.] I know you probably forgot it was today, but don't worry, I'll let it slide this time. Cheers! [And then he takes a big gulp of his wine. Oh! And here comes the food!]

[notaroundme]

[ ahaha...

Still, her smile is genuine when he decides to toast her instead, and she might even be a little bit embarrassed? It's a nice compliment, really, even if it's delivered in typical Archer fashion.]

Happy Valentine's Day to you too.

[She didn't forget, and she's pretty sure he's flying by the seat of his pants in that regard, but she really doesn't care anymore.]

Cheers.

[Yay wine and yay food!]
