Pff. Anything that isn't warp-five capable gets capped at 'cute.'
[Mariner's going uncharacteristically quiet for a moment (and with how quick she's in the habit of going, a moment is an event). The nurse is just too good.]
Uh, yeah. How about a drink with a little kick? There's some things I wanted to show you. Might go nicely together.
[It doesn't get any judgment from Beckett, who is a fan of margaritas while on duty. A moment's consideration, and she decides to lean into an impulse, by stepping close and trying to let fingers brush the other woman's hand.]
Are you telling me you like things that are fun, but way bitter?
[Okay. Okay, one boundary tested and it's good. It's not that she expects to create a disaster here, but she cares more about doing things right than she lets on, and especially with someone that she looks up to.]
Oof, I have the stupidest line.
[Carefully, she curls fingers around the nurse's hand, and moves to bump her shoulder. And, clearly enjoying throwing that stupid line out:]
I'm fun, and bitter, so if you wanted to you could skip the booze and just try me.
( Chapel laughs softly. It's a stupid line, sure, but on someone cute it definitely works and Mariner is definitely cute. She leans in a little and whispers up against the other woman's ear. )

Fun is the only reason to live.
