Alain comes in through the open lake door, wiping his boots on the mat by the door. Winter is turning slowly to spring, at least for a few days. There's mud.
Ennis nods, and follows his gaze. That door, at least, he can see. Even if he may not like what's just beyond it. His face is a bit whistful, at the idea of the horses.

A nod, as he settles onto a couch.

"Apple beer."
The fact that it's in a tumbler rather than a large glass might hint that it's rather stronger than ordinary beer.

A nod to Alain, and to the other man.

Date: 2006-02-21 05:43 am (UTC)"Roland," he supplies. "A friend of mine, and ka-mate."
That last will mean approximately nothing to Ennis, but oh well.
To Roland, he indicates Ennis with a tilt of his head. "Ennis Del Mar. We met the other day."

A scratch on his nose, and he looks at the floor, smoke rising above his face.
