quick questions #19

What's the best way to cope during a pandemic?

(This question and all replies will be taken as messages in a pan-dimensional computer network, rather than in-person interaction, for reasons considered obvious in this age of COVID-19.)

(Also, wash your hands.)

Stay plugged in and online. Do whatever it takes to prop your mood up.

Speaking the unspoken: alcohol! Drink it, rub it on your filthy meat mittens, drink more. Alone, or with your household—bars are never clean enough and there's a fucking killer disease out there.

Come now, Niña. You speak so ill of my dinners. Without those plague rats risking themselves, I would go so, so thirsty.

We are who we are. You, partaker of human vitality; I, a simple booze pixie.

I like you and I want you to come through everything as well as you can, but I also like my patrons and would like them un-dead. Not undead, just, like, still alive. And paying their bar tabs.

Are you doing alright? I don't know what I can do do help, but if you need some margarita mix...?

[pasht]

We are indeed.

I expect I will be fine. I have lived through enough to know that there will always be quarantine breakers. I won't run dry. If the worst were to pass, Earth is not the only place I can go. You needn't worry.

I think I prefer to keep to myself until this blows over, but thank you kindly. You do care for your patrons and I would not wish to pose an unexpected risk to them. I shall wait for better days.

[green_tease]

Thanks lots. Let me know if you need a high-proof care package, though!

[jainajade]

Hole up alone on a desolate planet, I guess.

[green_tease]

You don't sound so hot, Red. Want some company?

[jainajade]

Uh, there's a fucking plague outside?! No visitors.

[green_tease]

I am a personification of concentrated disinfectant and unable to catch human diseases besides. Pick your poison, do not actually poison yourself, and put on some clothes before your guest arrives.

[jainajade]

I'm already wearing clothes! I'm not euryale!

[euryale]

Hey!... fair.

[jainajade]

...okay so I'm wearing pyjamas, which are clothes. Not normal daytime clothes, but still clothes.

[green_tease]

I'm clad in illusions. Not gonna judge your cartoon print jammies unless it turns out you're weirdly deep into Fairly OddParents or something.

Bringing vodka and Djew. See you soon!
