[whether that's in response to the first comment or to the second, he won't say--but he smirks, picking himself back up to maneuver the small space and gather everything he needs for tea.
the liquid smells vaguely of licorice, but with a lingering bitterness... not as unpleasant as it could be, but it seems like the kind of thing that would leave a distinct aftertaste. even if Tek doesn't disperse the dose in his drink, he may want the drink after just to wash the lingering flavor from his mouth.
Tonic comes back to set his tea kettle on the middle table, perched on top of another portable burner, before scooping up whatever kind of tea he deems is best for this little experiment of theirs. with the way he keeps stopping to adjust his leg, though, it isn't that surprising when he finally reaches down to just start unhooking the thing, knowing that it will make any kind of moving around in here much easier.]
