"Right," Mona said. "So we're mixing mezcal, bloodwine, ketchup, chocolate milk, and pickle juice. In mason jars."

She did not envy the people volunteering to drink this cocktail. She'd seen a lot of crazy stuff in her years as a bartender -- she'd done a lot of it herself, even -- but this was perhaps the weirdest.

"Good luck to all of you."

"Then cheers to us, and I hope the clinic is standing by to pump some stomachs," Ghanima replied with a sigh. "Bottoms-up."

And she promptly picked it up and downed the entire thing in one go, making a face as she did so. "Oh, that's wretched."

Even with her taste and smell blunted. The consistencey still made her want to scrub her mouth out with a metal brush.

Mona's mouth curled up faintly on one side. "Sometimes you have to suffer for the cause."

Seriously, she was really glad that, since she had to go through the portal before it closed, she didn't have to drink this damned mess.

"There is suffering, and then there is masochism," Ghanima said dryly. "Would you mind lining up a few bottles of tequila or mezcal, so that I don't have to suffer any longer than I need to?"

They seemed like the best palette cleansers after... this.

Mona shot a look back at Quark, who had had significant trouble allowing people to experiment without charging them an arm and a leg.

"I'll see what I can do."
