[ At this point, the guard comes back, holding a small jar like one used to hold wine, sealed with a large cork and cloth. He's flanked by one of his comrades, who is holding two small cups. The first man holds it out toward Sun Ce, keeping it steady as the warlord turns toward it. ]
Cleaning, huh?
[ He pulls out the cork, and a refreshingly sweet, subtle aroma fills the air. There are notes of something fruity, and it doesn't smell alcoholic in the least. The second guard hands him a cup, and he holds it out for the first guard to pour a serving of the concoction into it.
(She won't need to even drink any. The mere scent of it will have an effect on its own — though she'll hardly be the only one affected.) ]
I'm sure I can figure out a way to put that to good use. But about that drink...
[ The second guard holds out the other cup, which is similarly filled. Sun Ce nods at the man, and he walks over to Yor, holding it out at a level where she can take a sip out of it. Just to show there's nothing dangerous about the drink (unless one considers being mindlessly horny and insatiable dangerous), Sun Ce holds out his own cup, ready to take a drink of his own if she seems hesitant.
It all came from the same jar, and there's nothing funny about it. No hidden chambers, nothing. In fact, it looks like some of the men might be eager to take a drink themselves. ]
