Max's quick answer to her question was a quick 'whatever's on tap' before they were almost immediately confronted by the woman manning the counter. He only caught where Hailey's eyes landed first because he'd been watching her, but the look at him and the nervous babbling that erupted immediately after might've given him a good idea even if he hadn't caught it. He pressed his lips together over a laugh, cheeks ballooning as he watched her babble out the etymology for 'wench' before the woman stopped her short.
They got their ales ordered, at least, and Max lifted a hand to stave off the laughter in the moments they were left waiting, bowing his head as he cleared his throat over the urge. When the steins arrived, Hailey was quick to pay and snap one up, and Max took the second, following her with a snicker as she clinked her glass and immediately started swigging it.
“Yeah, here's to... historically accurate bar wenches, huh?” Max teased, emphasis adding innuendo as he finally let himself laugh. He kept it low, almost rumbling out of his chest, rather than a loud outburst. He lifted the stein, ready to take a sip, but letting the laughter out before he tried.
