Week Four

[Last week, Gershwin High School Academy University saw its very first intentional murder! What a milestone! And right after Spongebob's No Murder party, too - that doesn't seem like it bodes very well for anybody's future.

You all wake up this morning with yet another new memory returned to you. You'll also find that the school's external doors have now unlocked. Congratulations! You're free! Unfortunately, you also seem to be entirely in the middle of nowhere. So maybe it's more of a symbolic victory.

Still, you should look around and do some investigation! Maybe you'll find a fun surprise.]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday


(( Be sure to submit your memory regains and your AC for this week! Hester's office hours and the merch booth also remain available! ))

[ She completely forgot what they were doing, oops. ]

—Right- yes, okay. Let's- let's do that. What kinda tea'd you make?

Just some black tea. I thought it would be a nice contrast to the pie. [he'll help bring that tea over to one of the tables, then]
comeandfindme: (dead reckoning)

They taste different? [ ...Wait- ] Of course they taste different, I mean— like...does the tea make the pie better, or...?

[ Right now, she just kind of wants to listen to someone tell her about something she doesn't know about. Let it try and cover all the pain. And, Salieri seems very good at that. ]

It can, depending on the tea. Different teas can affect how you taste everything else that you're eating, especially depending on the quality of the tea itself.

Huh. Never knew. ...It may shock you, but rural Minnesota isn't exactly a...bastion of tea-drinking culture.

Oh? [girl he knows NOTHING about Minnesota]

What's it like, then?
comeandfindme: (rise above it when you)

[personal profile] comeandfindme 2021-07-11 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhhh. Woodsy?

[ Wait. No— ]

Oh, you mean like. Drinks. It's... [ She grimaces. ] Cheap beer? Like...PBR and Schlitz? I don't drink, like...at all. But. That's what the culture's like.

[it is very difficult not to wrinkle his nose when she says the words "cheap beer," but somehow he manages it]

...I see.

Well, unfortunately we are bereft of true tea variety here, but...the more high quality of tea you have, the better it tastes. The leaves have more time to mature and dry, so when they're packaged, they're more fragrant, therefore you have a more depth of flavor.

[ SORRY SALIERI... Peregrine at least has the decency to shrug apologetically. ]

Oh, so it's like...aging? People do something like that for drying foods, usually to make 'em last longer.

[ Even somewhat subdued, she can't help but spit out some fun survivalist facts. ]

That's it exactly. Young tea does have a distinctive flavor to be sure, but it's so mild that there aren't many that enjoy it, much less have access to it.

Once the tea is aged, it very much starts to take on its own distinctive flavor.
comeandfindme: (make another crack it doesn't matter)

That's how it's s'pposed to be with alcohol too, right? Huh... Weird that some food and drink need time to really develop and some you have to take care of fast.
