She caps it again immediately, giving him a flat look. Other than him, who should she be expecting? She didn't argue, though. "You seemed to find it safe enough before."

"I won't tell you where this is from or how I obtained it. It is entirely your choice whether or not you wish to accept."

She can't say it satisfies her, but it is what it is. She opens the flask.
