[Hard spirits were still a relatively new acquaintance to him, true, but Richard liked to think that he was exposed to the taste of whiskey enough. At least he could now drink it without being taken back by its strong and biting flavor, as can be seen the way he takes a good measured sip out of the glass without flinching or twisting his expression. But Silco was right about one thing, his body would not be able to tolerate much of it in one go.

After swallowing the amber-colored liquid he placed the glass back on the table, ice cubes faintly clicking against each others. Richard then wiped his lips with his gloved thumb.]


Nay. I shall see just how far his knowledge goes and direct it elsewhere.

[Richard still found the idea of telling Jinx very unsettling. The only reason he had given in and allowed Silco to reveal the truth to her was in hopes it would somehow help to de-escalate the situation between them. But Charles? No, Charles knowing was so much worse than Jinx. It hit right into the most important and sacred in Richard, his legacy.

At the times like these he really missed having Buckingham around. The younger man always knew what to do. That ruthless mind of his could turn black into white and so on if needed to be.]
