of course there is booze because there is always booze. law does not perceive the meth. (if there is any.)

[kaz is beaching it up, possibly hovering around aoi, and wearing what i am distressed to report are some absolutely canonical swim trunks.

kaz isn't drunk, because he's not a savage, but he is drinking something red that appears to have a... ball of mozzarella and basil in it? okay.]

Oh, okay, if you insist! Let's see...

I've dated a platinum-chartint popstar who ended up being a demon skull,
I'm a part-time model and posterboy for this very drink, [he holds it up and jiggles it enticingly]
and I rapped live on stage for a Christmas special at Radio City Music Hall!

[touchups]

[i love those trunks for him

Also, Mahito is eying that drink with some vague interest. A ball of mozzarella........ sir.]

Hmm... You're pretty good at this! That's a hard set. [IS IT.] Iiis it... the rapping one? Was it a different venue or holiday or something?

[bachelorbored]

Oh, well done! Yeah, that was a bedtime story, not a real happening.

[touchups]

What's that drink, then? I don't think I've ever seen anything like it!

[bachelorbored]

This? Oh, just a caprese martini.

Want to try?

[touchups]

Yeah, sure! [REACHING HIS HANDS FOR IT making grabby hand gestures.] I've never tried even a regular martini before. It's just tomato juice and-- uh, what was it. Vodka? Gin?

[All his James Bond knowledge has evaporated.]

[bachelorbored]

Ah, the full ingredients cannot be revealed, due to the recipe's patent-pending status!

But, yeah. It's a vodka base. Basically tastes like a caprese salad in a glass! Make sure you eat the mozzarella ball at the end with the basil!

[touchups]

Oooh, gotcha, gotcha.

[DON'T JUST ACCEPT THIS. But he'll nod, taking a thoughtful sip.]

...Y'know, it's a lot better than a lot of the drinks I've tried here! Like that one with a scorpion in it.

[bachelorbored]

A scorpion!?

[touchups]

Yeah! There are some bottles of vodka back in the back over on the other side that had whole scorpions in 'em!

[bachelorbored]

Fucked up!

We should dare someone to eat one!

[touchups]

I like the way you think!

[A THUMBS UP. TERRIBLE. DO NOT GET A CURSE'S STAMP OF APPROVAL.]

They have all kinds of alcohol here, right? So they probably have one of those bottles, too! Let's do it! I tried to get someone to eat one earlier, but they found it before anyone drank it, hah.

[Scorpion milk...]

[bachelorbored]

[it's so good to have friends!]

Well, if someone's even remotely sober, we don't have a chance. We'll have to err on the side of people who do drugs and liquors to their extremes!

Or, we could bake it into a brownie.

[holeful]

.... What is that drink, exactly?

[Surely that's not mozarella in it. It can't be.]

[bachelorbored]

A caprese martini, of course!

Want to try it?

[holeful]

...

What's in it?

[bachelorbored]

It's a patent-pending recipe, so I can't reveal those details at this time.

[holeful]

I think I'll pass then.
[A beat.]

Is the first one a lie?

[bachelorbored]

Are you sure? You'll be delighted! The caprese base really shines through!

Also, no! I really did date a demon popstar, but you know how these things go.

[holeful]

So it's the last one, then?

[DEMON POPSTAR.... KAZ'S LIFE IS SO WEIRD.]

[bachelorbored]

You got it! Haha, well done!

[nodo]

You managed to date a popstar?

[ hello...? ]

[bachelorbored]

Yes, and she was incredible. It's a shame she turned out to be a demon hell-bent on painting the town red with the blood of the bourgeoisie. Oh, well.

[nodo]

[ i.


the more he learns, the less he actually knows. ]

What kind of world do you live in, Kaz?

[bachelorbored]

It's just Neo Yokio. No need for dramatics!
