Sam joined Anne Marie at the door to the cellar, listening to Kieran's explanation. "An' you watch yer fuckin' mouth!" she shouted down the stairs. "You hear me, Kieran? Anne Marie's a real lady, an' she don't need ta hear shit like that!" An indistinct noise that coukd have been "fuck you" exhied up the stairs, making her laugh. "Y'ain't my type," she shouted down. "An' Ah ain't yours, neither!"
She was still chuckling as she returned to the table. "Is it as much fun ta wind him up as Ah think it is? Or is it th' booze?" Piicking up the bottle, she stared fuzzily at it before putting it back on tge table. "Either way, Ah reckon Ah oughta cut mahself off. Don' wanna pass out, 'fore Ah celebrate mah engagement."
Just then, Professor Swift emerged from the cellar in shirtsleeves with a ripped elbow and grease on his face. "Bloody Yank engineering," he grumbled, grabbing the bottle of scotch. "Bodgy things gone walkabout, it has." Discovering the bottle empty, he glared at it as if personally affronted. Then, with a grimace, he sat down. "It's as fixed as it'll ever be, in Erik's professional opinion. So it'll work well enough to keep us from freezing our balls off, but that's about it."
Thumping the bottle down, he glared at Sam. For her part, she was biting her lip and trying not to laugh. "What?" he demanded. "I'm a bloody Aussie, aren't I? Means I'm allowed to lair it up once, time to time. Now pass the billy, cause I need a cuppa."
