Yo, Orbers.

The other day I asked our dear cute Viv-chan to stock up on some Staminan X drinks. Before you ask: it's an energy drink. Don't worry, they taste much better than what you're probably used to. [He might or might not be blatantly lying about this.] And she agreed to get some.

So the last drop also contained some Staminan X.

[Here the message briefly turns into a video as it shows Zhao's pretty painted nails as his hand reaches out to grab a Staminan X drink and show it off like some announcer in a television advertisement. He suppresses a giggle before cutting the video portion off. Video is weird when it comes from your own head, guys, that's all he's thinking. Anyway.]

Now before you go scoffing about an announcement about a simple drink consider this: it's good in a fight. Now I know some of you are used to magic so I'll liken it to a potion from a video game or something. You drink one of these while you're low on energy and it'll refresh you. Probably get rid of pesky bruises you've sustained in battle, too. So I'd save them for missions rather than daily life here on the station.

If anyone doubts it's potential I'll demonstrate it for ya. Just once so we're not wasting them so if a few people are interested you can all watch to verify. But you'll have to put me through the ringer in the training room first to make it worthwhile and obvious. Heh.

Merry Christmas, happy holidays, or whatever time of year it is because who actually knows, that's your gift from me. You're welcome. Enjoy and use wisely.

Honestly, I'd probably trust that stuff even more than the magic.

[ at least he's had experienced with liquids and shots that provide a boost to biological chemicals. who knows what the fuck goes on with magic. ]

Yeah, and I'm the kind of asshole who'd usually be willing to put any kind of shit in my body.

[ honest to a fault, he considers the sort of drugs he's never questioned, never feared the side effects of, reckless in his willingness to try anything. but then again, he really isn't the most reliable person for giving his own body the care it needs. just ask the endless cigarettes he's smoked just today. ]

But I'll take something like that over some superstitious spell or something. They make you an addict or you just get your ass kicked enough that you're on them so much?

Right. I'm sure that's what anyone would say.

[ regarding the performance of ass-kicking. but there's an amused smirk in his tone that's more for the sake of teasing than actual disbelieving. ]

But I know all about getting thrown more dumbasses, so count me in on giving these a shot. Last mission didn't have much in the way of fighting, but highly doubt the next one's gonna turn out as clean.
