[ rita answers the door with a bit of a relieved smile, even before her eyes lands on the bottle natasha's brought to ease the day's events. over the years, she's become so used to hiding out in her room on her own to overcome her own insecurities that the change in having people spare her from it is a nice change of pace. the last thing rita ever expected to find on this station was people who genuinely cared. ]
Oh, am I ever?
[ she laughs softly, stepping back with a held out arm in invitation for her to come inside. her room is as neat as it can be of course, colorful scarves hung around the walls to try to liven it up from its default cold appearance. the most notable "decoration" is a row of movies arranged on the table, no doubt being the full rita farr cinematic collection. ]
I think what I miss most about home is the fully stocked bar we had in the manor. Never more than a few feet away from a good cocktail when it was absolutely needed.
We do all right. [Natasha comments with a wry smile, glancing down at the bottle she brought with her. Ximilia might not have the most complete bar—at the moment there's still three bottles of gingerbread flavored vodka in the kitchen left over from the holidays, unopened. ]
Though it does make me wonder what it is about the superhero gig that encourages liberal alcohol use. I never questioned the Avengers tower having a bar in the common space...
[Natasha imagines Tony would have included a fully stocked bar in an underwear drawer around that era.]
But being here makes me think it's a little more than just us.
