*Luke smirks. He knows better than to try to grab it out of the air now. They've played THIS game enough times.*
Remind me again, Slim. Exactly when did you start to get so cocky?

:::She comes back up with her arms full of bottles and she begins placing them in front of her:::
Cocky... hm. Is that what they call people like us?
:::Then she holds her hand under the floating can and it drops into her grasp, free from it's chronicle freeze. She didn't hand it to Luke though:::
Now try to open it

I gotta work for it, huh?
All right. *Luke holds out his hand.. and thinks for a minute. This is a different angle than what he's used to, but ... it shouldn't be too much harder.*
*Luke puts his shoulder into it and jerks his hand back. The tab on the beer pulls forward and a light mist fizzes as the can opens.*
*Luke huffs in a breath. He grins to himself, then to Cora, then to the can. He's getting better at this, and he knows it.*
I'm the man. Beer me.

You're learning quickly. I'm proud of you.

*For a second, Luke thinks about Hajime. Not fast enough. But it's only for a second. So he makes himself smile.*
Thanks. *has to add* Does this mean you're done trash talkin' now?

You mean, am I done being 'cocky'?

Ooooh. I see how it is. You can throw a punch, you just don't like taking them.

*Luke's mouth drops open in shock. He takes the bottle of wine, unable to speak for a moment.*
....Who ARE you? And what in the HELL did you do with Cora Serenis?

:::She chuckles and starts walking away from the bar, out towards an open area near the tables:::
I don't know, go check the library. After three whole weeks of almost nothing but reading, I'm very tired of it.
:::She stops and turns back to face him:::
Throw that at me.

*Luke arches an eyebrow, looks down at the wine bottle, back at Cora.*
Throw this at you... *because that makes sense* I'm not that mad at you, Slim.

Oh... :::She tilted her head to one side appearing just slightly concerned:::
I didn't know you were mad at me at all. I wasn't serious... about staying cocky.
:::She pauses::: Oh, but I do want you to throw that bottle at me. Trust me.

*Luke winks.* Yeah, like I was serious about being mad at you? *She's still got some things to learn about the wonderful world of sarcasm.*
*Luke throws the bottle up a few inches and catches it lightly. He knows Cora wants to practice, but he doesn't like the idea. It could really do some damage if something went wrong.*
*looks up and shakes his head* If it's all the same to you, I'd feel better about throwing a beer can.
