[ Still concerning, but if a suggestion can be worked around, it is something Childermass will have to keep in mind. He gives his head a shake and holds a hand out for the twine Blade was helping with. ]
Then I suggest we tidy up, and then I will choose a decent bottle of wine for us.
[ There's just something about thinking some accidental request will send Blade off on an unwanted errand. Childermass would rather not. So, he'll give a nod, and set off back to the kitchen.
And, thankfully, there isn't much to clean up in the first place. It's just a matter of putting the twine and hooks away, stowing any bags of flour not used. It was, after all, a very simple trap. From there, it's a simple enough matter of browsing the wine rack for a suitable vintage.
He won't get anything too bitter. A dessert wine ought to do, even though he, himself, doesn't have a taste for sweeter wines. ]

[The concerns will persist but having friends to back him up makes it easier to handle them.]
