Frank had actually seen the check-in and blows out a breath. He just panics because... (1) he's him (2) Karen is Karen and (3) he'd just come from a place where literally everyone is in danger all the time. Karen's fine, of course she's fine. It's just a stupid earthquake. He leans into Aurora a little more and stares straight ahead, wondering if it'll never not be terrifying to be here with Karen.
"What... do you mean what's up with us?" he asks, brows knitting tightly as he snatches the liquor back. He already feels it clouding his mind, and he wants so much more of that feeling. Playing dumb probably isn't going to work on Kira though, is it? He looks down before taking a sip, knowing he doesn't have the words for this but maybe he owes it to them both to try. "We helped each other, back home. Saved each other."
Before she gets here. God, he's so tired. He really just wants to skip it, the weird kooky adventures with the three of them. Can he just rest?
"She said she's been waiting for me to get here." If that isn't a reason to drink, he doesn't know what is.
