Wow. I'm both impressed and vaguely jealous. He must be a great lay.
[ Not that he should be jealous, but he wonders if it's just a natural thing to happen when your best friend falls in love. He wonders if Margo ever felt this way when he started making heart eyes at Quentin, or if she still feels this way, or if it never even crossed her mind. Maybe he just isn't quite certain he's ready to potential the share title of Margo's Number One Man with someone he hasn't actually met. ]
[ She rolls her eyes at the "great lay" comment but the look on her face probably tells him that she thinks Scott is. But he's more than that to her, he's different from any of the douches she's banged before. And he rolls with every punch she throws his way to a level that sometimes makes her wonder if he's real.
Eliot's not alone in his friend-jealousy, although for her it was more that she was annoyed by how much less time she got with Eliot as a result than she was of being usurped in his heart by Quentin. ]
Also... I'm pretty sure he's actually a superhero that I've heard of but can't quite remember. [ This place is weird like that. She gets up to grab the shaker to bring back to the table to pour them more booze, her eyebrow perked.]
And you? How's the Queliot romance going? Coldwater got his head out of his ass yet?
[ With the refilled glass, he gives her a toast. Who would have thought they'd ever be having this conversation, the two of them with legitimate feelings for other people? ]
Is that what people call us? Queliot? Does that make you Scargo, cause that sounds gross. I don't know if Quentin's ever going to really have his head out of his ass and I really think that's part of his charm. He's a dick but he's my dick. In all the ways that can be taken.
[ But fuck yeah, cheers to that. Eliot completely understands the hope of keeping things from imploding. He hasn't quite cracked the code himself, not here, but it had happened once for him. And Margo's always had her shit together so much more than him. ]
And, you know, maybe I can actually meet him or I'm going to start assuming you're just making him up.
[ Margo's just better at juggling her shit but eventually... some part of it will fall on the ground. ]
We can all get drunk together-- [ She says with a sip and a smile.] But without the threesome nightcap, sorry, El. This guy is someone's father. [ And a vampire but that's not something she's going to share unless Scott wants her to.]
And he looks like what I remember Paul Rudd to look like.
Okay. I just need to break down the assumption that apparently I can't get drunk with you and someone else without it ending in a threesome. One, I'm quite sexually satisfied with my own world saving hero who's great in bed. Two, Paul Rudd weirds me out because he never ages and I feel like if I slept with anyone who looked like him, I'd have my life force sucked out. Three, dads and moms can and absolutely do have threesomes, and I can completely confirm that.
[ Eliot raises his glass and guzzles down the drink, then gets up to make them more. Maybe they should go easy on the drinks, but, well. When has that ever happened? ]
[ She lifts her hands up after he lays down his solid arguments.] I was just joking, jesus. I know you're on the one-man track with Coldwater and I'm aware of how kinky parents can be. And Paul Rudd is ultra-fuckable.
[ Taking a sip of her drink, she eyes him carefully.] Are you just pissed about the idea of possibly breaking out into a Bieber tune or is there another reason you're on edge?
I get it. [ she does, truly. she's on edge too, barely feeling recovered from her own ordeal. she reaches out to touch his arm.] Just don't take it out on me because I do get it.

It's what I'm calling you. [ At the Scargo, she makes such a face.] Fuck that. It's too close to Scarjo and I'm actually a woman of color.
[ Still, she nods at his statement. It's time for another cheers. ] Here's to not fucking it up.

[ Eliot sips his own drink, and he shrugs, because no there's really no reason. Maybe he's just tired. ]
Sorry. You let me know whenever you want me to meet him.
