Zoro?

[ manuela's voice drifts from the spare bedroom in her suite. she hadn't yet decided on what to make of it, and passed by it on her way from the other bedroom she had already claimed, and so lingered by to give it another thought before his knock and his voice draws her attention. while far from the king and queen suites, the nine designation has certainly afforded her the opportunity to go about her days in comfort... the fully stocked drink bar has certainly seen quite a lot of uses since her arrival, for example. ]

That is you, right? You look quite capable, so I'd hate to have to defend myself against you if you weren't.

( He's found his own suite to be similarly comfortable, though truth be told he doesn't spend as much time in it as others might in theirs. He's fortunate enough to have some of his crew with him in this place, and has spent considerably more time in their more lavish suites. )

That's me. ( He chuckles softly, finally stepping inside and closing the door behind him once he spots her. He raises the bottle of whiskey to present it to her, then gestures for her to lead the way to wherever she wants them to settle down and indulge. ) Ah. You don't have to worry about me, but... you might have to defend yourself a time or two in this place.

( He shakes his head at the memory of what he's endured so far. ) So it's good that you're vigilant. ( Or was she just flirting, and he's being dense? Sorry, sometimes super serious guy here - the whiskey will relax him more in a moment! )

i'm so soryr for how late this is; pls feel free to drop it if the moment's passed!

[ it's a little of column A and a little of column B... the frank assessment of his physique is as objective as it is subjective; unfortunately, there is always a little bit of flirtatiousness in manuela's interactions with men she happens to find attractive, but to her credit she never really assumes anything will come from it. too often she's gotten used to being disregarded that it's really just habit for habit's sake at this point.

that all being said, his comment does put a more somber twist to things, doesn't it? she's still new, as she said, but the more she hears about this place, the more she finds it isn't as much of a reprieve as she'd been hoping it'd be. ah well. ]

I've set up some glasses for us by the couch, [ she says, leading the way there. he'll be used to the set up of the suite, being a nine himself, and she hadn't much time to really make the space her own so much of the layout and decoration is still very standard. on the low coffee table in front of the couch are two glasses and a bucket of ice, in case he likes his drinks on the rocks.

she takes a seat herself, and waits until he's settled before taking the bottle from him and pouring them each a glass. ]

Would you suggest having a weapon of some kind in this place?

[ ah, maybe that's not the coziest conversation to be having... but it feels like an important one to have, nonetheless. ]
