Drink Around the Stars

Author:

Use to be the best place in orbit, real exclusive and barely anyone knew about it except for anyone in your fine line of work. You must know if you’re taking me there now.

Heading to the moon is a regular thing for me, travelling for the sights you can get in Monolith City, you know the place, best of best if you want to have the thrill of watching the Barsoom Bugs fight it out to the death, experiencing the pleasures of the little known “Gatto Ragazze” or to drink some of finest experimental (and illegal) drinks in the whole of the galaxy. Science of a good drink has come a long way and M-City gives you all the progress of unheard gems: a Kroton Buzz and Spicy Blue are just two of the many mind bending drinks on offer.

You’ll never find those drinks in the classy joints like Reboot Lounge or Babylon. They don’t want the regulars to have too much of an aftershock that shatters the mind for a week. Almost like one those Gargle Blaster’s with the impossible to describe delirium.

I’m only going to Reboot Lounge for the suites they offer to regulars. You would need to work a lifetime and beyond to get to that point. More drinks to choose then M-City but a planet to buy.....They do have the greats at work to get drinks to give the drinker the maximum experience possible. It’s not the same as M-City, but the place has the advantage of offering the rarest of the rare, so rare that most of the regulars haven’t taken the time to find out about them.....How nice it is to know I have such wonders to enjoy even now.

Drinking the stuff no one else has ever heard of....though that disappears. Someone mentions it once in a holo-guide and it becomes the drink of all drinks, then the charm of it is stolen away by the idiots drinking it for the fad of it.

Like Reboot Lounge: got mentioned in a hikers guide regardless of the money thing, but that doesn’t stop the wealthy from flooding to the new hotspot of the Moon. It’s the worst thing to listen to the beat of Fly Me to the Moon while a hundred or so new additions chatter away....almost tempting to....Don’t ask what’s behind this face.

Just know it’s a compilation of faces: crimson eyes here and cat ears there. You would never want to see me during a hangover.....I sometimes forget to keep up the ears, eyes or appendages.....My blank spot moments.

Worst case scenario: You might run clicking with those antennas of yours if you ever got to see me. Doesn’t bother me though, that’s the sort of thing I would want to happen if I just so happen shifted back when I was Reboot Lounge...I would never do that when I might lose the suit.

To the moon and all I want is drink or two.....Shame you didn’t have anything to tell me about.
