(no subject)

[so, some of you may be wondering where Gene has been

well, I'll tell you where Gene has been. he's been scouring this entire bloody place for a good flask of whisky, but know what he finds?

sake

and only sake

oh my. someone's in a bad mood]

The bloody hell is this piss? I've had better stuff come out the bleedin' tap at home. Pigs would shit better drink than this. [grumblegrumble takes another sip and >| face] Damn Japs never did anything right.

[ooc; Replies will probably come tomorrow]

{You know what she's wearing}

...Ne, it's not that bad.

{Lets just say he changed out of his costume}

I know, it sucks. I've been trying to mix some other drinks with it, but uhhh, it hasn't really worked at all.

Like don't try sake and orange juice.

...Just sayin'.

Ha, quite so! I wouldn't be as extreme to say that a fermented pig's feces would be much better drink, but I feel like I should have to drink gallons to get any proper feeling! Seven of the small pitchers, and I feel hardly ready to even begin a meal!

If you dislike it so much, why are you still drinking it?

[his eyebrows? way up at that outfit]

How would you know?

The hell would you ever try that?

[oh Rider, he likes you all ready] Like I said, it's swill. Don't think I could drink enough to even get a bloody buzz and I could use a drink right now.

Because I want to get pissed. What's it look it?

Because I've been drinking it too.

{But her face just goes ":<" at the eyebrow raising}

...Ne, you don't have to stare. I know it's really bad.

The age old saying of "it seemed like a good idea at the time." I've had sake before, but I'd take a lot of other things before it, so...

Thought you couldn't taste shit.

[too bad he keeps staring]

What are you all trussed up for?

In no time ever is mixing booze and orange juice a good idea, unless all you drink are girlie drinks.

It seems that Dionysus does not smile upon this public bath, and so we are cursed with water made from rice. I should even take the old mead that sat as a reminder of old within my palace over it.

Who the hell makes booze with rice? It's the bloody worst idea I've ever heard.

I can taste alcohols and other strong things. {She would give other examples, but most of them were because Sam cooked them for her, so she doesn't want to bring that up}

{But she pauses, frowning}

Well, that is...I guess you got your wish. At home, I'm locked in an asylum. This is the stupid outfit that Arkham makes me wear. I would have worn something else today, but ne, all the other things were dirty...

It was worth a try. It's not like it tastes that great, or, you know, feels that alcoholic.

Apparently the Japanese! From the little I know of their history, it would make sense, since I don't believe that grapes can grow in the country, nor can any of the other plants used to make alcohols that can actually wet the tongue. Honey may have been available, but I do not know. Best to say that they tried with what they had.

Though I have to say, you've never really drunk beer until you've had Persian beer! The best I ever had in my life! I felt as if I was intoxicated for days.

Doesn't mean you've got any taste.

[sniffs]

Someone managed to lock you up? Good. It's where you belong.

It's piss.

More a liquor fan, myself. I'll take a pint over a beer any day.

...wouldn't mind trying it, though.

[You deserve someone Japanese. So you get someone Japanese! Even if his family has strangely strong Western influences]

[Satoshi is eating his nabemono peacefully until Gene starts talking in that loud and obnoxious way of his]

[Then Satoshi line-faces at him]

[screw you, Satoshi, the Japanese can't make alcohol]

Yes, but true liquor is a more modern invention than the alcohols I sampled on my conquests. I quite enjoy it, but I think nostalgia keeps me to wine, beer, and occasionally mead if I'm in the mood for it. If only I could go back to Persia and bring some with me, I would be a happier man for it!

I think Japan would disagree. But I have a feeling you don't really care.

{She doesn't deny it}

Ne, you made me lose a lot of blood when you shot me a lot, you know. And Arkham doesn't believe that I'm not human, so I had to get my own food.
