Who: Cosmo
Where: Lobby
When: 436

[Cosmo is rocking a look. Minus the plague mask, it's just his normal mask. He's got a set of fruity drinks in front of him, and he's leaning back with a drink in hand.]

"Risk" and "Reward".

Half of these drinks are non-alcoholic, most of the rest are quite potently alcoholic, a few are drugged.

The risk is obvious, the reward is engaging in the live. Or perhaps in avoiding the traps.

The drugs are one of three kinds--a potent psychedelic, a numbing agent, and something to get you a little hot under the collar. Do take it elsewhere if you get that last one.

[He sips his drink.]

Of course some say the best way to win at gambling is not to play, but where's the fun in that?

((OOC: tag any toplevels with the aphro as nsfw and you can have like, multiple if you want. I'll toplevel Lahabrea to talk to but you can also just engage with drugs.))

If you are feeling ambitious.

[firstworldproblem]

I just need the points, my friend.

[temperedinpride]

I heard you were promising to pay for memories.

[He sounds so bemused.]

[firstworldproblem]

Is that not what good friends do?

[temperedinpride]

Goodness. You'll actually have to work.

[firstworldproblem]

I have to be efficient. You are doing all the work presently.

[temperedinpride]

I can hold more lives if you're that in need.

[firstworldproblem]

I would like that. I would do what I can to help Hythlodeaus and perhaps we can even throw a few spares at my other self.

[temperedinpride]

What a busybody.

[He's very charmed.]

Yvette had given me inspiration for the next way to drug others but I will keep that in reserve. Procure me sleeping potions, however, and I have ideas.

[firstworldproblem]

.... Since when did your lives all surround about the topic of drugging others?

[temperedinpride]

Since just now, apparently? But really, I was thinking of offering opt in dreams next time. I'm sure I can make that fit bartending by serving the potions, if nothing else.

Hardly nefarious.

[firstworldproblem]

[He just laughs.]

Forget I ever doubted you.

[temperedinpride]

I have never done aught that is questionable in my life.

[firstworldproblem]

[Flicking his nose.]

[temperedinpride]

[It's biting his finger dignified? No. But he's doing it anyway.]

[firstworldproblem]

Your husband is making you feral.

[temperedinpride]

Perhaps he is a bad influence. Or perhaps I just wanted to see that expression.

[firstworldproblem]

I swear I must have a sign somewhere that says 'bother and annoy with love' for all the times it does happen.

[temperedinpride]

Yes? That is just your face I'm afraid.

[firstworldproblem]

Is that so?

[Puppeteering Lahabrea and picking up an empty glass while his dearest friend picks up a full one.

He mimes tipping it back.]

[temperedinpride]

[Hey?

Actually he admires the asshole move but he's glaring as he drinks.

Why does dice bot always want to give him the horny one.]

[firstworldproblem]

How are you feeling, my dear?

[temperedinpride]

[The question is; is he still being puppeted? And did Emet feign swallowing? ]

[firstworldproblem]

[Throughout the drink, yes. And of course he swallows. He imagines the Speaker would worm out otherwise.]

[temperedinpride]

[A shame, he'd have made Emet share the drink with a kiss otherwise. He does set the drink down if he's let loose from the puppetting.]

I feel you need another drink yourself after that.

[He picks out a drink and just straight up drops some pill in it, handing it over. Not even a little trying to hide it. Is it double drugged? Who knows.]
