ok but what's your favorite drink

[suplexer]

[ ????? ]

Peter?
Why do you ask?

[punctually]

[ because he's bored out of his mind... ]

just curious
when's the last time someone asked you that

[suplexer]

Hmm, probably when I was still running the bar. If people couldn't figure out what they wanted, they would ask me for my recommendation.

[punctually]

yeah?
and what's that

[suplexer]

It would have to be the Cosmo Canyon.
Not sure I can recreate it here, though...

[punctually]

why what's in it?

[suplexer]

Well, the final flourish that completes the drink is a special salt, from the canyon it's named after.

[ So, not something that she has access to here. ]

[punctually]

[ damn.... he was going to make a list. ]

does the special salt make it
saltier?

[suplexer]

You know how certain drinks are rimmed with salt and it adds to it? It's like that. But Cosmo salt has a specific flavor you can't find just anywhere.

[ Wedge went out of his way to find it for her. And despite promises made, it was only Tifa and Barret who made it to the canyon themselves. Despite all the memories associated with it (or maybe because of them), it's remained her favorite drink. ]
