[Kazuma... probably doesn't need to be drinking anymore, but Wei Wuxian has already refilled him and, well--despite the topic that brought them here, there is something comforting about this, actually. About simply existing in the same space as someone else, without a true purpose. It's something he hasn't ever really experienced with anyone other than Ryunosuke. It's... nice.]
Well, it doesn't seem like it's up to me. [He says it like he's reluctantly conceding, but there's enough smile in his voice that it likely fools neither of them.]
Ha, now you're getting it! [He refills his own glass and holds it up for Kazuma to clink, calling out a cheers for both of them. It might be a momentary distraction from everything he doesn't want to think about right now, but it's an effective one and far better than drinking alone.
If he's lucky, by the time they're done here, Itachi will be well enough for him to go and see, and the sight of him will chase off any of those lingering sinking feelings in his stomach that even the alcohol can't quite chase away.
But for now he's content to drink with a new acquaintance.]
