Entry tags:
(Not) a New Year's Eve Party
Who: ChromaWei disciples and assorted friends
Where: Chez Wei Wuxian and Maiden Nero
When: NYE
What: it’s a “wine” tasting party. Mix, mingle, and threadhop.
Warnings: Alcohol and bad decisions
[ Wei Wuxian, ever since he got here, has been researching the mysteries of fermentation. He’s from a civilized world, to wit: other people made wine and he drank it. But needs must in this strange place, and he—ever the inventor—has performed experiment after experiment.
Then he went for a stroll in the forest and rang a bell and made a wish and… cheated, basically. Although his earlier attempts were all trial and error, the town gifted him with a book entitled Goldilocks and the Three Bears get Hammered, which included instructions for making wine; the town gifted him also with ingredients and materials for making rice wine.
Now it’s time to enjoy (?) the fruits of his labor. Disciples and honored guests will have their choice of various concoctions. All wine jars are labelled only with numbers, and no other hints of their origins or ingredients.
Jar #1 is hard apple cider. It’s young, rough, sweet and pretty much terrible, as it’s one of Wei Wuxian’s early experiments. It’s about 8% alcohol.
Jar #2 is fermented blackberry wine, similar to the apple wine above in quality. It’s about 12% alcohol.
Jars #3, 4, and 5 are rice wine, made with ingredients and know-how provided by the town. It’s of average quality, but please note that it is 25% alcohol by volume. Happy New Year!
Jar #6 is another Wei Wuxian experimentation special, and consists only of moldy rice-flavored water. It won’t get you drunk but it MAY cure all known infections. Extremely vile to the taste and suspicious-looking.
Guests may also enjoy a piece of cake, which was his reward from the caroling quest earlier this month. It’s heavily infused with alcohol as well, which is why it’s stayed fresh.
Whenever you arrive, one (1) Wei Wuxian will be there to greet you, all bright smiles and enthusiasm, cup in hand—one for him and one for you. ]
Come in, come in! Wonderful to see you!
[ The townhouse he shares with Maiden Nero is of the usual Ruga size and configuration, and it’s far from neat but it is festooned with artwork, sculpture, and calligraphy, as well as odds and ends of strange things that might be blood-smeared talismans or other bizarre, half-made magical tools (touch at your own risk). All in all, it’s a bright and cheerful place, with a merry fire going in the hearth. Wei Wuxian might even play his flute for you if the mood strikes him, but don’t let Maiden Nero sing. ]
