[video] His people would have at least nine historically known words for the stuff, after all

[warriorscribe]

*Yes, this was totally worth bringing his dinner up to the library to share. Enoch is seated in the terminal chair, a plate of glazed chicken in his lap and a glass of rosewater wine in his hand. While his words and manner are formal, there's a real, if exhausted, gratitude in his voice.*

I must give gratitude where it's due. *Enoch raises the glass.* It's much appreciated. Thank you, Riki.

((backdated to the dinner hours of the first, of course.))

And they don't card age for the wine. I was almost worried it'd be snatched out of my hand or something.

[Aleph is very pleased that it was not.]

*There is a long moment of very obvious confusion before he finally repeats, looking for clarification:*

"Card age"?

[Video]

[alephbet]

Provide a form of identification proving you're over the legal drinking age. I'm only a year old, so I don't qualify for anybody's legal drinking age.

[warriorscribe]

...But your body is that of an adult. I don't understand why counting years so specifically is necessary...

This is nice. While I am not picky, this fare is much better when compared to nutrition bars.

[And while chaos wasn't a big drinker, he might sneak some wine out if he felt like it. Even though he couldn't get drunk, it was nice.]

*And Enoch will obligingly type responses to this one instead of keeping with the video. It's just in human nature to match the means of conversation; it's how conversation is learned, after all.*

Indeed. I could live off of nutrition bars, but I am quite happy to have wine here. And the first level smells wonderful. Riki is being very generous with us this month.

[lightofhumanity]

So am I. It is hard for me to get drunk, but it does taste nice.

[Which was a bit of a lie, but it's not like chaos would say that he couldn't get drunk outright.]

I had almost forgotten how fragrant flowers could be, since you do not see many of them here. Perhaps..Riki is trying to make it up to us, in his own way. Perhaps. I could be wrong.

You as well? Having a high tolerance is a mixed blessing.

It certainly feels as if he is. He has no other reason to do this.

[lightofhumanity]

It is..on the one hand, it is nice to enjoy a few drinks and not have to worry too much about it..on the other, it is hard when a friend passes out while you are talking.

No, he does not. It shows that not even Riki is wholly bad.

[starofpleiades]

I'm really glad there's so much this month! Eheh, I'm going to have to see if I can store a lot of the flowers and flavorings they don't usually have!

[warriorscribe]

That sounds like a good idea. I may have to try to make a wineskin, myself...

*With the unspoken implication they'll need everything they can save from this month. Ruana was next, after all...*

[starofpleiades]

Mm! The Floor 60 kitchen is a good place to store things! They don't clean it out like they do the cafeteria one.

[warriorscribe]

It doesn't? I'll have to keep it in mind...

[cutestprogrammer]

The menu really is quite delightful this month!

[video]

[warriorscribe]

It is, indeed... It smells wonderful down there.

[video]

[cutestprogrammer]

And it tastes good too and looks adorable!

[ Urotsuki stares. With as weird as she is, she doesn't really get it that easily.. ]

What are you thanking him for..?

video

[warriorscribe]

For the good food and drink, of course. The drink in particular. I think most of this tower could use some wine right now.

[chainsawn]

[ At least Urotsuki does know what alcohol is. She's had it in her dreams, after all! Although it makes her wonder.. ]

Can I have wine too? You said "most of this tower", right?

[warriorscribe]

*On the one hand? It could make her tendencies even worse. On the other? It could calm them. She looked young, perhaps newly matured. So she probably wouldn't have had too much wine before...*

Er...you haven't had any before, have you?

[technologic]

[April, on the other hand, seems unsure.]

... But, um, is it okay to eat and drink flowers?

Video

[warriorscribe]

Of course it is. Most plants flower, whether they're poisonous or not.

Video

[technologic]

Oooh... I had thought the only plants you could eat where ones that made things like vegetables or fruits, I didn't know the flowers were edible too...

Video

[warriorscribe]

There are many more things that are edible than are obvious. Unfortunately...to learn such things often takes the necessity of looking for more than the obvious.
