[Merrin's hand is so gentle with him. The same hand he's seen decimate squads of stormtroopers and security droids and summon up her fiery magick, but still capable of this tenderness. Of course, Cal obeys her movements and he looks at her, even if his vision starts to get a little wobbly from the drink. Not enough to distract him, though.
Merrin has always had a unique insight and it's only developed more since she's been gone and seen the galaxy. She's wiser than he ever was, but Cal is grateful for it, especially now with both Cere and Master Cordova gone.
He nods in answer, then grabs his drink and quickly finishes it off. Grabbing the folded list of names, he stands up, immediately choosing to ignore how the world around him spins a little. A little too fast. Like he's not walking quite right or gravity has gotten...less? Less. Whatever. It's still tolerable, but he really should get this done before he ends up accidentally throwing himself in the fire, too. He looks over, back to Merrin.]
Thanks.
[Then he holds out his hand, inviting her to come to the fire with him.]
