Martin's brow quirked way up at that, and that wasn't an act either. This trend was starting to annoy him. Nodding, he rose, meandering to the bar, ordering two drinks, and returning with them.

Teazer was unused to being in the company of cats who didn't push back, stubborness didn't work so well when there was no retaliation. She took the glass as he set it down, "Thank you." though there was still something a little haughty in her tone, pride unable to allow her to drop the indignant act altogether.

He sent his ears flickering back slightly at that, not pushing the timid act but more of reminding her of it. "You're welcome," he replied.

The look went somewhat lost on her anyway since she'd turned back towards the stage, but she caught the words. Turning, she picked up the glass, "Cheers, I guess." she took rather a larger mouthful of the liquid than she might normally have done, hoping to steel her nerves.

Martin watched her, taking a small sip of his own drink, turning his attention to the stage as well.

Teazer set the glass down again but shifted a little so she was turned slightly towards him. She opened her mouth to say something, but then closed it again, unsure of what she could say.

Martin noticed the movement, considering calling her out on it and unsure. "How has work been?" he asked finally.

Teazer took another sip of her drink before replying, though she was quite grateful for the change of subject. "Not bad thank you, jus' the same as usual I guess. What about f'you?"

Martin kept the worst of the scowl from his face. "Very, very glad that New Years is safely over... my... boss decided all my time needed to be taken up dealing with his mad cap ideas."

Teazer frowned at that, though she was a little curious, "Oh?"

Martin took a gulp of his drink before he even considered replying to that. "Well, I work at one of the big hotels, and he decided to throw a New Years Gala that must have taken up, oh, almost a complete month of my time." And be an arrogant sod while doing it.

"Teazer nodded, "I remember you sayin' y'worked in a fancy hotel. Organisin' somethin' like that's gotta take some doin'."

"That," Martin declared. "Would be putting it lightly."

Teazer stopped herself from pulling a face at that, his attitude was bothering her slightly, maybe it was partly her belief that any job was what you made it, or that she somewhat suspected he was making a fuss. If it was for her benefit, he shouldn't have bothered.

Oh, it was hardly for her benefit. He was trying to downplay how much he seethed at Macavity for different things, not least of all was how much of the work for his gala had been fostered off upon Martin. He looked once more toward the stage, trying to not let his anger get the better of him, since he needed to be focusing more on this right then.
