Fannish 5: Fictional Beverages
May. 20th, 2011 01:38 pmFive fictional beverages you wish you could try.
1.) Tarkelian Tea. Julian Bashir likes it, and so does Enabran Tain. Since the other thing they share is Garak, it makes me conclude Tarkelian Tea must be tasty indeed.
2.) Magic potion from Gaul brewed by Miraculix. Not that I have the urge to beat up Romans, but it could come in handy at times. Especially when one is exhausted and/or travelling long distances.
3.) Shape-changing potion from Harry Potter. It sounds as if it tastes really awful, but the idea of being someone else for a few hours intrigues me. Also there is the guarantee it would wear off, which means I'm not being stuck with another shape for life.
4.) Raktajino. Never mind Romulan ale, DS9 proves that the drink that conquered the galaxy is Klingon coffee. I'm curious. Also it comes in handy as a clue when one has to save the timeline, Starship captains and even tribbles.
5.) Elixir of life. Who wants to live forever? Frankly, I wouldn't be adverse to the idea. Yes, many a story has told me it's a horrible fate and I would suffer immensly, seeing everyone I love die and times change around me, but you know, as someone fascinated by history, I'm also intrigued by the prospect of what I could yet see. I'm optimistic enough to believe I would find people to make connections with as I would go on living. Plus I really, really don't like the idea of dying. At all.
