Either the drink had addled his brain so much that he did not care how he spoke, or it was worse then usual. If the boy had any manners whatsoever to speak of, he hadn't found any since meeting him and frankly the elvhen spy highly doubted he would anytime soon either. Though the thrashing did very little in the grand scheme of things, already off the ground as he was, while tempted to simply knock the younger out he thought better of it. Less chance of being puked all over if he was awake and conscious. Rather then try to reason with the words coming out of Ruth, he simply waited before moving on. Soft footsteps leading them both further away from such rowdy establishments, he had avoided them at dinner for good reason.
Constant grumbling aside, that also went ignored, when set down he seemed to regain at least some of his thoughts enough to spit out a proper sentence. Well it was a start. Even if it was absolutely foolish at the same time. Enough that it pulled a small sigh from him. [color=#008e02]"Of course, I'm not a complete monster, just mostly one."[/color] That for once, was about as truthful as he would get of an evening. Though looking over the boy he had to wonder how he was standing upright and if he would end up toppling over face first at any moment. As entertaining as that would certainly be, he wasn't much in the mood to deal with dragging half a corpse around all night.
[color=#008e02]"Planning to walk in a straight line, or should I just carry you by the collar again?"[/color] Whatever the case was to be, he still bid the younger follow him with a brief gesture, or simply yanking him there by one handed force if need be. Back to the quiet of where he had begun his afternoon within the Vhenadahl, peaceful this time of night and easy enough to start up a fire with a spark from his hand. All the while Ruth would find that Revas was indeed a man of his word, a deluge of water dumped upon him from above, all before being sat down before the now quietly burning campfire. Small enough that it was easy to put out and not damage anything within this sacred space that felt the closest to home ever since he'd awoken.
[color=#008e02]"Now sit and sober up."[/color] The quicker the younger did, the sooner he cold plan his departure from the city tonight. In the meantime, he returned to the knowledge he had packed away before. One drunk fool was hardly enough to inhibit his evening of study.
