One of the first curses I experienced was much like this-- not beer, but milkshakes. Several flavors of them, coming through all the faucets. I imagine this has the potential to be much more destructive, should people overindulge; the worst results of that one, as I recall, were some unfortunately sticky individuals and a few stomach aches the ( Read more... )

Is there a significance to it?

I suppose we ought to be grateful, really, considering some of the other curses. The deities do seem to enjoy mass intoxication, though.

Today is kind of about serpents. I mean, St. Patrick banished them from Ireland and all.

Also he brought Christianity there, I think, which is the actual reason he's important, but mostly people use today to celebrate Ireland and Irish things, which is why everything's green. Most of my family is Catholic, so I guess I'd know more about saints than most, but that doesn't mean I know a whole lot of details.

I think milkshakes all over would be better than beer.

It's- natural to think of your home.

It was stickier, but somewhat more pleasant-smelling... Though after a time the sweet scent was just as irritating.

I don't find it strange, just... different. I've been content, for the most part, to wait here until the Outsider saw fit to send me home; of late, I find myself... restless.

Yeah, I think I can understand that.

Mn. Yeah, I know what you mean. I do miss some of my friends from home and my family though.

It's not that... or, well; it is not only that. I feel as though I've been idle too long, away from my duties in my own whorl.
