Seeing the expression on Soren's face soften to one of good humor, Morgan chuckled and allowed her tense posture to relax. It seemed that his anger, at least, was not directed toward her in any way. She felt relieved about this, that his temper was caused by the cost of her alcohol or how late she'd come in to respond to his request of the previous day. Sliding one of the slender white cylinders from the pack, Morgan held it between her fingers for a moment while pondering the contents of her pockets.
"Do you have a light?" she inquired finally, patting down the pockets of her cargo pants just to be sure that she didn't have a lighter somewhere on her. She held the tip out to him, assuming that he had some way of lighting it as his own was lit. With her free hand, she tugged at her tee shirt until she was satisfied with it. The drinks placed before them had been ordered by Soren just before he'd offered her the cigarette but she hadn't caught what he'd ordered and she sniffed it experimentally.
"My day has been all right. Just difficult. I had the day off, so I spent it having a friend help me with something" she replied, holding the shot up to her nose and swirling its contents a little. She didn't think anything sinister of the drink, she just didn't know what it was and was worried that it might be something with a sharper taste of more burn that she was used to drinking.
"How has your day been?" She glanced up at him, her tentative smile still on her face. He'd been nothing but nice to her so far and she was terribly afraid of saying something that might make him annoyed.
