You did it from scratch again? Or did you use the microwave this time?
[ it is pretty good though. needed after what the fuck ever just happened to his brain over and over. he’s absolutely using mephisto like a leaning post at this point. comfy. ]
Isn’t there one that doesn’t do anything this week? Like… there’s the one that messes with your memory, the one that makes you want to fight god, and…. the [ frowns ] Santa one. But there’s that last one that doesn’t seem to do anything?
Anyway, I'm not ruining my perfect cocoa success with lemon. I suppose we can always hit the bar before lockdown time if you really want to go back out into the cold that badly, though.
[ they really just set themselves up for sitting room curfew early, huh? date isn't moving until he has to get snacks. or he gets shoved off, one or the other. ]
Perk of the job, I expect. It'd be rude and insensitive to bring hot chocolate to the inevitable trial this weekend for them to spike.
[ it would definitely be rude and insenstive. ] But I might ask Malibu for a bottle of something to bring back.

Guess we’ll see next week. There’s already been one lot of duplicates, so it’s already starting if that’s the case.

On the bright side, the cocoa's pretty good this time, right? Hardly even spilled any milk making it.

[ help ]
Nope.
[ hang on he’s trying to laugh and also not spill his drink. ] What did we mess around with stove for again?
no subject
I think we were trying to create the "authentic cocoa experience" or something? I dunno.
no subject
Yeah, screw that. Microwave’s easier and apparently tastes no different. Especially once you’re done dumping half a bag of marshmallows on top.

Indeed!

Would’ve got us our drinks quicker, that’s for sure.
[ …………. ]
Shit, we could’ve spiked these.

If you really wanted to risk any of those weird side effects on a Thursday night, yes, we could have.

The Santa one probably would have tasted pretty great in this, though, actually.
no subject
… Yeah but then we’d have to deal with seeing Santa. [ honestly? could be worse. ]

[ pets. ]

[ it is cold out there. no. he’s had enough of that. ]
Maybe Malibu can get his hands on something not cursed to lace future drinks with. Because now I’ve thought about it, I want to try it.
no subject
They should be able to. They have normal alcohol at the trial and execution bars, after all.

Rude to whom, the victim?
[ the hand that's been stroking his hair moves to give him a little poke in the cheek. ]
Tell you what, if I'm dead tomorrow morning, you have my full blessing to bring hot chocolate to the trial and have them spike it.
