"I already told you, there is no bottle." She said, clutching it close to her chest in an effort to keep it away from him. He said 'dear' why on earth would he ever call her that. This was all really dumb. And her mother...well this was just one on a very long and ever-growing list of things she'd die if her mother knew about. A very, very long list. Maybe if she ignored Zacharie, he'd go away. She looked up at Gordon with her ugly tear-smeared face. "Yeah. I'm great. Just relaxing in my elaborate blanket fort. Same as always."

"You know maybe you guys should consider not keeping alcohol in this base," she commented. "Y'know, get rid of it all, give it to a team that could enjoy it without causing problems, y'know?"

Gordon wasn't sure how to console her. He kept his hand on her shoulder hopefully to let her calm down from her crying..... "I don't really believe you but maybe you should stop drinking....."

He turned and sat on the heels of his gator skin shoes. “Maybe because you haven’t experienced it, but sometimes it’s quite relaxing to enjoy a glass of liquor once in a while.” Zacharie said condescendingly to Eric. “If you drink responsibly.”

She frowned. "Maybe you should stop drinkgn.." It was the best comeback she could think of giving the situation. Drat, she wanted to roll away again but they had her surrounded on all sides. Those clever bastards. Defeated, Fran uncurled herself, stretched out her legs, and laid on her side, bottle still held protectively in her arms.

"So is that to imply that this," she gestured at the medic, "Is responsible drinking." The words were more of a statement then a question.

"Yes." She wasn't a part of that conversation but she felt she needed to add that.

"No." He retorted quickly. "It is not." Zacharie huffed and looked over at Fran. "Give Gordon the bottle or I will have to take it with force."

Fran's eyes narrowed. "I'd like to see you try." She hissed. She would sooner kick him in the face and make a run for it than hand over the nearly-empty bottle. In fact, if he moved an single inch closer that was her plan exactly.

"Fran." Gordon said in a low voice. "Please."

"Don't listen to them!" Eric quickly told the medic, her face becoming dead serious. "They're just trying to deceive you!" Zach would probably kill her later for this. It felt worth it, though.

He took that as a challenge. Zacharie crept forward a bit, reaching out with a lanky arm in attempt to snatch the bottle from her.

Of course, it was so simple! Why couldn't she see it before? They were just trying to lull her into a false sense of security. The moment she let her guard down they'd...do...something...probably. There's no time to waste on petty details, she had to act fast. Clutching the bottle in her right hand and swinging wildly to keep the two men away with her left, Fran sprang to her feet with surprising agility for someone so thoroughly inebriated. She had her sights set on the exit. If only she could make it out, the others would be too busy scrambling and tripping over blankets to catch up to her. It was a foolproof plan.

Gordon gave Eric a quick death glare but was taken aback and startled by Fran's movements. He fell backwards and onto the covers but quickly scrambled back up while avoiding to mess up the fortress.

Eric smirked and sat back to watch her handiwork. Perhaps once the medic made it out she would pull the roof of the sanctum down, just to fuck with them further.
