[Eridanus had disappeared earlier in the evening, saying he was off to pick something up, though he hadn't said what or how long he would be. When he returns hours later, it's with a wooden box tucked under one arm and a glass jug filled with something clear under the other. He finds Lucius on the couch in their sitting area, his feet up on the coffee table with his computer in his lap.]

Who are you tormenting now with your siren song? [He asks as he leans over the back of the couch, peeking at the blue-faced screen of sprawling type.] Anyone important, or can you join me in the dining area?

[He doesn't wait for an answer to turn towards the attached dining room, where he sets the glass jug down along with the wooden box. Then Eridanus passes through the kitchen and retrieves two glasses, before calling out,] I was given some moonshine by a friend, I think you'll like it, it's far stronger than what you might get at a bar!
