Dietrich didn’t even ask anymore when Troy brought him something new and unfamiliar, except to clarify how one was supposed to take it. It wouldn’t do to snort something you were supposed to smoke, or vice versa. Some were supposed to be taken as a tablet or, rarely, even needed to be mixed into water. So there were certain things that needed to be asked. What effects those drugs would have on their user, however, were not among those things.
But he was starting to think that this one might be a dud.
Perhaps it was because Dietrich’s tolerance for various substances was higher than average, but whatever the pressed powder tablet was supposed to do still hadn’t affected him after half a bell. Dietrich laid back against his pillows and gazed up at the ceiling of his room, watching the slow creep of the shadows like a puppet theatre.
They even began to tell him a story, after a time. A wild, adventurous tale about privateers on the high seas, traveling to exotic ports of call and meeting all sorts of interesting people. Pirates and gladiators, beastmen and monsters. It made Dietrich smile.
Joel KinnamanonThe Talk aka, that moment back in 2016 when the host told Joel to his face what a velvety, sensual voice he has and that he should be a phone sex operator.
I also did one of Annabelle from the Laminar Chronicles. It’s not my usual art style but I’ve been experimenting with it lately, and I enjoy it, and I’ll probably continue. WHO SHOULD I DO NEXT?
After everything that happened in Ragnarok, imagine Thor hearing about Steve and Tony’s fight and being like “Really?! Thats why you all stopped working together?! Just get over it! I did! I’m still friends with Loki and he’s betrayed me three times since breakfast! This petty mortal shit is nothing!”
Loki: “Can confirm, poisoning his mead right now.”
Thor: “Ha! I’ve built up an immunity.”
Now I feel I was cheated on Civil War
Steve: “Well, we disagreed about this big political thing, and I mean big - almost every country in the world was involved.”
Thor: *nodding* “Right.”
Steve: “So we started to fight, I mean really fight. We each had about half a dozen friends backing us up.”
Thor: *nodding* “Always best to bring your friends along”
Steve: “And by the end, it was just me and Tony, and we… we really pounded each other…. no holding back.”
also while im waiting for my tea to steep, since im petty, and they cant fire me any more than they already have i can tell you about the Button That Makes You Lie To People because i CANNOT stop thinking about it and its driving me fucking nuts
i worked at a fancy gourmet coffee shop, but not everyone who came in knew that or cared, so we’d occasionally get ppl who got all their coffee knowledge from starbuckses. starbuckae? starbukakke
anyway sbux has this thing where they’re literally just wrong about what they call some drinks. for example, a cappuccino is traditionally a double shot of espresso with milk foam, like a few sips of drink, but at starbucks the smallest possible “cappuccino” is 8oz and espresso with that much milk? is really just a bastard latte.
but to explain that to someone who doesnt know better takes time, and there a line forming, and a latte… is close enough to what someone who thinks of a cappuccino as a 16oz drink is expecting. so if someone asked for a “large cappuccino” we were instructed to go “okay :)”, plug in a large latte, and then, before they could see, scroll down to the secret buttons, the forbidden buttons, the deceit buttons, and press the one called “cappuccino”, in “quotes”, which would not only put a cappuccino on their receipt, but would send a message to the barista, across the room, who would then make a latte, see the pink “cappuccino” indicator, and go
“large cappuccino? :)”
and i just, like, that’s just, i love how, food is made up and not real
