Mhm. I have a running register of every drink we've done so far with tests and observation notes - and with the way they've been utilized, on purpose or on accident, they've become very helpful.
[ considering.
he taps his keyboard absently, the screen flicking over to his notes. ]
What do you say? I can compensate you, somehow. I'm a pretty mean cook.

Yeah, we've had some uh, experiences. With them. I guess.
[ wow. ]
... Uhhh. Sure, I guess. But if any of them make my hair light on fire you're on my List.

That's weirdly specific, but I wouldn't put that past this place.
[ he looks at the flambe drink and nudges it aside... ]
...Here. Maybe don't pick that one. The rest ought to be okay. The beer's just there for a control, so any of the other cocktails would be fine - you'll just drink it, tell me what it tastes like, any other observations you can make with your five senses, and we'll go from there. Sound okay?

[ experiences... lmao. ]
It seems like the kind of thing this place would do though, right? Hand you a drink that lit your hair up.
[ thank you for protecting his hair. ]
... [ well. he sips the beer. ] That's better than last week. I like this pattern of the beer improving the longer we're here. [ but ok, for real now. ]
Either the lemony one or the -- oh, huh they're both lemony. [ wow. ] You a fan of green or blue more?

You don't have to drink the control, you know...
[ but he'll take it - he sounds amused, teasing as he taps away on his keyboard in a new window and gamely adding that in for the beer. ]
Hmm. Colors? [ thinking: ] Blue. [ thinking about lin jingheng almost definitely ] But, I have had one subject try that one already, if you want to test the green.

[ of course he does. the control is the consistent, the baseline, their friend and reliable ally -- beer. ]
... [ date just shrugs. ] Gotta test that too.
Hmmm. I can do the green, sure. [ imagine if I was like "and then his dick was the size of takeru's". (no) ]

[ he laughs a little at the first part, like, true. i dont claim to be good at science. me, sisi.
anyway! green it is. ]
So, once you taste it, just tell me what it tastes like, smells like - make some general observations. After the first five minutes of observation, we'll go from there. You do need to drink the whole thing. Okay?

Can I chug it? Just get it over with and deal with the consequences afterwards?
[ he is Sniffing it. he's ready. ]

[ one data log coming up ]
Oh, that's spiked lemonade. Straight up just spiked lemonade. It's kinda good actually.
[ his left hand is growing. ]

Hm?
[
oh. ]
... Fuck.
[ it's about the size of a dinner plate now. ]

[ it's about the size of a dinner plate now. ]
...Wow, that's interesting.
[ he just
lets this happen, sort of mildly as he leans over to observe and starts like, rapidly typing on his keyboard.
mumbling: ] Does it hurt at all? It's growing... I wonder if you chugging it made it happen so quickly. And why the left hand...

[ he'd be more concerned if bixing was freaking out so that's nice. date looks at his hand and wrinkles his nose. ]
... It feels stretchy? [ shocking. ]
I wouldn't be surprised if it's totally random. It could've been my ass.

Stretchy. Interesting. Like, elastic? Flex your fingers for me.
[ is it still growing. lu bixing is taking like rapid fire notes as this is happening because this is very, very fascinating
but the ass jokes does make him laugh. a "pffft" snort. ungraceful. ] I - yes, you're probably right. Maybe you got off lucky. Are you left handed?

Like my hand's being stretched. [ help. he does flex his fingers -- it's a bit clumsy, given he suddenly has a load of extra length to his fingers now.
it's probably slowing down now. ]
No, right. Lucky, lucky me.

No, right. Lucky, lucky me.
[ congrats on your salad fingers. he watches this with the acute eye of a scientist, and then adds something to his notes. ]
Probably. I mean, it could be worse - your dominant hand is one thing, but if it was truly random, it could be truly random. Your ear could grow so large it overbalances you and you can't stand up straight. Or you start to look like Pinocchio! Or, god forbid your heart enlarges - I wonder if it works on organs...?
[ dont just wonder that ] Hm.

Feel free it try it yourself if you're that interested.
