Third Drink | Video | Day 97

[Ellen doesn't look real happy. She's not, but normally she's a bit better at hiding it.]

New batch is out of the still but it's weaker than the last one. If anyone wants a bottle, stop by and pick it up.

[She sips water out of a glass. She's got other things to say.]

We're going to need things to run through the still. Rice, oats, cornmeal, frozen fruit, anything that can be run through the still.

If you find anything in the forest, dandelions can be used to make wine, too.

[She almost turns it off, but stops for a second.]

Also, got a haunch of venison, if anyone's willin' to trade for it.

[She shrugs.]

I was headed for the afterlife, so I agree with the strange part.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Really? And instead, you ended up here. I don't know whether that's better or worse.

[justrunsasaloon]

I'm still reservin' judgment on that one.

[She caps the bottle and puts it in front of him.]

If you return the bottle, when it's empty, I'd appreciate it.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

[He picks up the bottle and looks at it appreciatively. This is very much needed, for many reasons.]

I'll do that. Thanks. If I find any ingredients that might prove useful, I'll let you know.

[justrunsasaloon]

If you find any still supplies, too. Tubing, tubs, anything. I want to build a small still for experiments.

[Why the hell not?]

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Sure, I'll keep an eye out. I know more or less the kinda supplies that're needed. If I find any, you'l be the first to hear about it.

[justrunsasaloon]

Appreciate it. You bring supplies, I'll always make sure there's a bottle or two set aside for you.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Now that's the kind of deal I like.

[He gives her a little smile and a nod, then heads out, bottle safely in hand.]
