[He quips, obviously joking. The rule breaking doesn't escape his notice either but if it's another sign of being more relaxed around him then he's not gonna remind Elijah about his stipulation.]
[He can tell the kid's only joking, but he's not exactly laughing in response.]
That "thing" you're talkin' about is just as much a part of me as anything else. It feels an' reacts to things just like the rest of me does, 'specially when my mind's all in a fuss.
[Tequila Farina's is a classy establishment with cactus decor and a sign that reads Tequila Farina's Spicy Cantina in Spanish but sweat not, Spanish is not a requirement for communication. The patio is his choice of seating because that's where Freddy can smoke in peace. Hey wouldn't Elijah also experience the culture shock of an anti-smoking world? Look the serving girl's got a short hemline and cowboy boots, all that leg going to waste where Freddy Newendyke is concerned.]
[The same goes for Elijah, as well. That point concerning Spanish is good as well, considering he only has passing experience with the language...or most languages of Europe, for that matter, with German and French being the only ones he can communicate with, even in only the slightest capacity.]

[Okay so much for taking the comedian route. He smokes down the last of his cigarette before putting it out.]

He coughs, somewhat awkwardly, and sticks his hand back in his pocket.] So, uh... You want to get a drink or somethin'?
action;
Sure. I got time for a drink.

You know a good place?

Tequila Farina's. Trust me on this one, it sounds like a joke but it ain't.

Well, I'll take your word for it.

[Just like he trusted their invitation at the spring. Yep.]

Lead on.

Fancy place.
