fourteenth flight - video;

[cloned]

[The camera comes into focus on a familiar (to some) chiseled jaw. Kon smiles and gives the camera a little wave.]

Hey, guys. Been a while, huh? Well, for me. I've got no clue how long it's been here. Anyway. I'm back! This place seems about the same.

Right. People who weren't here before? I'm Kon. Or Superboy. Either one works. Yeah, I'm related to Superman, if you were gonna ask that, and yeah, I can fly. So can my dog.

[Krypto, on hearing Kon mention the word dog, wanders over, looking curious. He barks at the camera and wags his tail. Kon goes over and scratches Krypto's head before looking back at the camera.]

So how's everyone been?

[Locked to friends from before he left.]

Hey! Who's still around? What'd I miss?

Usually with food. Not really an issue here. No yellow sun. [...it's a Kryptonian thing. Kon can still fly thanks to his tactile telekinesis, which isn't Kryptonian, but the rest of his powers are turned off.] Nice to meet you, Arkady! What kinds of drinks?

Dogs are so enthusiastic. I would have one but they'd chase my chikkenz.

Oh well, right now I'm learning every sort of hot drink I can. Toddies and buttered rum and coffee and Irish coffee and teas and ciders with booze in or not, and hot chocolate of course. I'm going to do a coffee tasting soon.

You have chickens?

Huh, wow. I thought it would just be like, martinis and whatever.

Lord Bertie the Sleepy and Lady Bertina, Pooer of Eggs. They wear diapers.

Not everyone drinks alcohol. But right now hot drinks would be welcome by almost anyone. D'you have a favorite?

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

[He grins.] Sweet names.

...have you ever made a peppermint mocha?

[can-has-vodka.livejournal.com]

I have, but if you like them I shall start practicing so I'm good at them! If I can mix a Long Island Iced Tea it shouldn't be difficult...

What's in Long Island Iced Tea?

[can-has-vodka.livejournal.com]

You throw in gin, vodka, triple sec, rum, tequila, sweet and sour mix and Coca Cola. It is a bit like drinking iced tea while being hit repeatedly with a brick.

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

...and people like that?

[can-has-vodka.livejournal.com]

Oh, they're tasty enough! If you wish to get so schloggered you cannot tell up from down, they are a good bet.

But...those days are over for me. Now I mix the drinks and listen when people need me to.

[ihavettk.livejournal.com]

Probably healthier. I don't really get... schloggered. [It's a liver of steel thing.]

I shall work on the coffee bar, then. It really is the season for a good hot drink. You'll have to tell me how strong you take it. I tend to make rocket fuel.
