I want to discuss the deep philosophical statement: juice is fruit blood. Discuss.

You might be asking, do I ever take life seriously? Not on this spy network, I don't.

I like my blood with a splash of rum.

[darkforcerising]

What fruit blood goes with rum?

[serpentinthegarden]

Pineapple. Makes you feel like you are in the tropics.

[darkforcerising]

Do you add coconut?

I don't really know how mix drinks work.

[serpentinthegarden]

And have chunks floating around in your drink? Nah! Coat the rim of the glass in coconut flakes. If you are feeling really fancy get one of those little pink umbrella's to float in it.

You've never been to a paradise themed bar before have you?

[darkforcerising]

Why put coconut on the rim? Always thought that was a strange place to put it.

I have ADHD and PTSD and those meds do not mix with alcohol. Outside of juvenile experimentation with beer or straight liquor, I really don't have much experience with alcohol.

[serpentinthegarden]

Decoration.

[ A frown. ]

Oversharing a bit. I never asked for your medical history.

[darkforcerising]

Why would food only be used as decoration and not consumption?

That is nowhere near a complete detailing of my mental medical history. But people usually assume I don't drink because of an addiction and then they act weird. And embarrassment is one of the worst literal secondhand emotions to feel from other people.

[serpentinthegarden]

Cause that's what people do... You're the guy that goes around actually eating the parsley garnish on a dinner aren't you?

You could have been a teetotaler for all I knew. It's none of my business.

[darkforcerising]

Seems wasteful. Very American.

I have no religious convictions.

[serpentinthegarden]

Very human.

And that's not exactly a religion...

[darkforcerising]

Sure.

In America, temperance is pretty super mixed with religion. And that is not a look I want to express in this climate.

[serpentinthegarden]

[ After a long blank stare, he begins speaking softly and with a slight shake of his head. ]

I... never said anything about temperance I said teetotaler, there's nothing religious about that. It means you don't drink. Maybe you don't like the flavor, maybe you get tipsy too quickly, maybe you are on meds that don't mesh well with alcohol, doesn't matter!

I'm trying to decide what you mean about the rest of that... Cause I'm a demon? I'm not going to swallow your soul if you accidentally sound religious.

[darkforcerising]

What? My opinions on religion have nothing to do with you.

[serpentinthegarden]

Then why did you bring them up? This was a silly conversation about fruit blood.

[darkforcerising]

Because in America, the teetotaler movement isn't not religious, outside a few exceptions to the rule. Like everything else in this fucked up country, extreme religious ideologies are mixed up in everything and ruin everything.

And I am not about any of those religious nuts.

[serpentinthegarden]

No, I can see that. You're a different kind of nut.

I could stick around and argue but there are better things to do. I'm going to go grab myself one of those pineapple rum cocktails and toast the fact I'm no where near as bitter as you.

Ciao!
