You Wake Up In A Bar

You formulate a plan. You shift your head to Stax, who seems to be contentedly finishing off his drink, despite his initial disdain for its composition.













She lets out a huff of air.

You don't waste any time. The coffee seems to have already been made earlier in the morning, perhaps before you got here-- but making a custom teabag with Mothgrant aromatics does take you almost the full turn.















You complete the drink. Beyond the teabags, the hardest part was sprinkling in a good amount of cocoa powder and powdered sugar-- and then stirring vigorously.








Your 'tender sense works on each drink separately, despite identical composition, as they're being served to different patrons.











You glance back. The mango hasn't grilled... anything like you were hoping, and now appears quite burnt, with molasses spilled all over the left half of the stove. The eggs do look fantastic, though. And the perfume soup looks... orange.

Though it's currently temporary, you have hired your first assistant, Egg Coordinator Stax.

Provided you can sort the mess with Laren's breakfast, you will gain a bartending level on the next turn.

The Cabinet has been updated with your new coffee-and-tea-related finds, as well as ingredients depleted with both the creation of the drinks and your efforts at making Laren breakfast.

I am currently taking any and all species/patron/lore/art prompts for YWUIAB! If you'd like to drop a patron in, or have a fun idea for a species in this grand and vast universe, or anything like that, feel free to post it in the thread or PM me if you'd like to keep it a surprise! <3
