I have a very basic situation here, that I designed exactly like the quest/dialogue when a player gives a beggar booze. However, I need it to appear that the recipient is "eating" the item given, and as such it needs to be removed from their inventory as soon as it is given (unless there is some way to force an NPC to use/consume an ingestible?). This is specifically for animals, by the way.

Everything takes place in a Papyrus fragment on the dialog response, just like the vanilla beggar/booze gifting, and works great, except for how to remove the item I just gifted them.

I learned about OnItemAdded, but it seems I cannot use this inside a fragment this way. Do I really have to make a whole quest/alias set up for this in addition to the dialogue fragment? I want to keep this as clean as humanly possible.

I can even run AddInventoryEventFilter on akSpeaker (the ObjectReference for the actor) but there doesn't seem to be any way to run Event OnItemAdded on the ObjectReference. It seems like filling an alias is just a long workaround to give me an objectreference, so in my head I can't understand why I couldn't add OnItemAdded to that akSpeaker ref from the fragment.

I know I'm missing something, I haven't gone too deep in my dealings with Papyrus.

Thank you!

Here's the code. I just slapped the event for OnItemAdded at the bottom, but it obviously doesn't have any context this way so it never executes. (Don't mind the conditions, this is half-baked, the old code used to remove a specific item each time rather than use the gifting menu...)
