“Oh, yes, sir. Well, that’s about it. I administered some fluids and electrolytes. Oh, and I thought we’d try a Physiostimulator since it elevates metabolic function. Otherwise, you’d have to titrate Benzdiplopenchloride over a few days. It was selfish on my part, if I’m being honest. I’m anxious to get my residency going and that wasn’t going to happen if my CMO was laid up in a biobed.” Nate took another deep draw off the Guinness. *Darn replicators do a fine job. Hmm, wonder if this is the real stuff? Probably not.
“Say, this stuff is really good. This stuff replicated or the real deal?” Nate asked holding his glass up and then draining it’s contents in a third gulp.
Alex took in the newly arrived dishes as they were plonked down on the table one after the other. He savoured the various scents as each dish slid past him, his mouth watering as he realized it had actually been quite a while since he’d eaten anything more substantional than a hurried sandwich. After waiting a beat to make sure everyone knew he wasn’t drinking as part of the game, he downed the rest of his pint in a couple of smooth pulls and managed to catch the waitress before she left.

“May I have a Lagavulin too please Miss, neat.” He asked, the warmth of his smile for the watress aided and abetted by the pleasant glow already spreading from the beer downed slightly too quickly on an empty stomach.

“Well I haven’t,” Daphne said. “And for the record Nate here,” she broke off a crab claw and pointed at Holcomb, “didn’t either. He just came in at the right time. I mean I was strapped to the table and moaning so if he does having perfect timing down between that and catching me when I fell.”

Henry’s eyes widened, though his mouth stayed shut except to allow entry for a stolen bit of fried chicken. He was quite glad he’d been called over, as the CMO was giving him a time and a half of interesting stories.

“Right, no that was all Blake’s goof.” Nate took a bite out of the perfectly seasoned, savory lamb ribs. Whoa, these are awesome. “Oh, yeah, my turn, I guess. Ummmm, let’s see. Uh, never have I ever . . . uh . . . .” Come on Nate, think of something. “Oh, okay. Never have I ever skinny tipped in the fountain in front of the Academy,” Nate asked knowing it was a fairly common tradition. Nate immediately lifted the glass of red wine Dr. Frankenstein had tried to return and took a generous drink.

“Oh pulling out the big guns,” Daphne laughed.

“Thank you Miss,” said Alex to the waitress as she set down his new drink in front of him.

“Okay so everyone had better get those glasses up.” Picking up her drink, Daphne downed it and set the glass down with a clink.

He lifted the tumbler and took a moment to savour the deep smoky scent of the whiskey, with just a hint of spice and vanilla notes. He paused for just a second and glanced around the group now crammed in around the table.

“It’s been at least a decade since I played this game, so we drink when we have done something or when we haven’t? I always get confused on that one.”

“A decade,” Daphne looked at McCall like he had grown several heads. “You did go to a regular school first? Regular in that they can’t make you scrub the toilets or do push up until your arms give out and you face plant the mud for having a beer so how could you not have played this game?”

Alex pretended to peer down his nose at Daphne through a non-existent pair of horn rimmed glasses, the type usually seen attached to a chain around the neck of that overly fussy librarian that is a bit too eager with the sushing….

“Well Chief, some of us went to medical schools that taught the theoretical side of chemistry and biology, not just the practical applications…”

He raised his glass in mock salute before tossing back the remainder of his drink and signally to the waitress for another set of drink all round.
