[She cracks a small smile and eyes him curiously.] Absolutely nothing like what, pray tell?

[blue_blazes]

I call it Grog. That's not the real name.

I can't actually pronounce the real name. It's a little like Whiskey, but after a sip you burn your tastesbuds enough that everything tastes like how you'd imagine the colour green. For about a week.

[curiousnotmalicious]

Sounds like a potent drink. Where do you get it?

[blue_blazes]

It comes from Hala. It's a Kree drink, for the men in the wedding party.

[curiousnotmalicious]

Only the men get to have this amazing beverage? [She raises her eyebrows and smiles faintly.] Well, that's not fair.

[He gives a shrug] The women can't digest it. It's likely to kill them.

I do a lot of stuff but I don't make the rules of biology on alien homeworlds.

[curiousnotmalicious]

Ah. [She nods slowly.] So it's biology and not sexism. Good to know. [She cracks a small smile.]

[blue_blazes]

You can't prove me wrong!

[curiousnotmalicious]

I wouldn't dream of trying to!
