SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:16:02

:: walks in holding a large platter of phallic cupcakes :: WHO WANTS SOME FIDDLY BITS?!

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:16:09

Venya Kashar> :: moving through the promenade, flitting from table to table of food and drinks, making sure that all is in order ::

Venya Kashar> :: moves over to Jude to examine the tray ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:18:06

:: walks around, knowing that he doesn't have to be on security detail because he's among friends, but it doesn't completely go through his head. Maybe if he had some proper scotch. ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:18:09

Venya: Very delicious. Made with only the best ingredients... and inside jokes. :: grins ::

CMO Lt Tailor 01-Jan-2020 21:19:00

::is in her quarters, going through her closet and tossing things out onto the floor:: Self: Nope.. no, not that one.. nope.. Where is it? ::huffs, sliding hangars back and forth looking for that one special dress that seems to have gone missing ::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:19:02

:: has herself a glass of wine, and has struck up a cheerful conversation with one of the scoundrels about genetics. ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 21:19:38

:: looks over at the cupcake display before shaking her head and moving to go retrieve her husband's favorite scotch, thinking and ordering two before getting a hard cider for herself, wandering over to find Wolfe, offering him the glass still remaining :: CTO: Take a relaxing pill, sir.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:19:45

Venya Kashar> :: laughs :: Jude: Mmmm, and delicious, I'm sure!

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:20:52

Venya: And a chance to impress a man. :: winks ::

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 21:21:08

:: has so far ignored the food tables, choosing to walk the perimeter first and study everyone. She knows some of these people and it has been her duty to scrutinize them before, so she's easing her mind from the start ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:21:27

Venya Kashar> :: with a knowing smile :: Jude: There's no shortage! Good luck, dear!

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:21:53

::Cheerfully wanders about with Amber Sun by his side.::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:22:30

:: waves Amber Sun over :: Amber Sun: EYYY buddy!

TAC LCdr T'Lira 01-Jan-2020 21:22:36

:: is not one to usually partake in such festivities, but recent conversations with Elena insisting she “make friends” has her standing near a wall at this particular festivity, gazing around ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:22:53

Venya Kashar> :: is not even surprised to see a bear on her promenade, stranger beings have visited ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:24:01

<Amber Sun> ::Pinches helpings of food as they pass by, things, nomming happily; until he finds something sticky, that begins to tangle in his pointy canines.: Jude: Raarrrrrggggg.... ::Chatters.:: Hellooooo ::Waves as he scratches at his mouth.::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:24:06

:: is over picking at the food table, wearing a bright red 1950s-style satin party dress with black tulle peeking out from under her short skirt ::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:24:42

:: checks out the fiddly bits and takes one, taking a bite without even thinking about it. She nods approvingly :: SCI: My compliments to the chef!

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:25:16

<Amber Sun> Self: Whats is?!

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:25:32

:: walks over to where Venya has had a bar set up, and decides it's time to unwind. :: Bartender: Scotch, on the rocks.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:25:40

Oh! :: puts her tray of phallic cupcakes on a table near and pulls out a tupperware that has a giant cupcake, suited for a bear :: Amber Sun: Here! A treat for you.

MED: Why thank you.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:26:56

:: dressed in a long, sleek, form-fitting dark green gown, slit up the leg, she eyes the food over Lexy's shoulder ::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:27:06

:: has already set her customary platter full of Wright Family Special Recipe Rumballs on the bar ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:27:29

<Amber Sun> ::Stops in his tracks, his nose flaring at the baked goods; before waffling one down in the blink of an eye, and going back to wrestling the toffee in his teeth to the floor.::

::Taps the bear with his cane.::

<Amber Sun> Jude: Thhhhaaaaankkkkkk you. ::Grins, before growling and chewing frantically.::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:28:14

Venya Kashar> :: approaches Kate and Lexy :: Thank you both for bringing your crew together with my... people!

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:28:40

:: with drink in hand walks around, convincing himself to enjoy himself. After all, having fun... was an order. ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:29:24

Amber Sun: You’re welcome. :: picks tray up, and walks over to T’Lira :: TAC: Would you perhaps like some fiddly bits?

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 21:29:55

:: for the most part completes her circuit of the bustling promenade, only being held up to a couple of questionable interactions that upon further study, turned out to be harmless situations. Her demeanor changes, and with a deep breath, Kuari smiles and looks around for her friends and comrades ::

TAC LCdr T'Lira 01-Jan-2020 21:29:57

:: blinks :: SCI: Fiddly... bits?

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:30:07

:: turns to Venya :: Thank you for offering to host this party for us! It is a tradition for our crew, and having it here will definitely improve relations between our peoples.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:30:28

TAC: Yes. Fiddly bit cupcakes. I made them myself. :: wiggles eyebrows ::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:30:33

:: realizes Venya is nearby and focuses even harder on the food ::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:30:36

:: goes back to the bar and her conversation with the shady man who also keeps mutabeetles ::

TAC LCdr T'Lira 01-Jan-2020 21:31:04

:: still has no idea what they are, but accepts one of the small cakes anyway ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:32:42

T'lira: They are phalic in shape dear girl. ::Chuckles, as he whisks along as he does.::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:33:01

Venya Kashar> Lexy: I sampled your rumballs, Alexis! They're divine!

TAC LCdr T'Lira 01-Jan-2020 21:33:12

:: has many questions as to why one would make food in such a questionable shape ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:33:48

TAC: I am sure Commander Wright would update you on the status of fiddly bits if you asked.

TAC LCdr T'Lira 01-Jan-2020 21:34:32

SCI: I do not believe that is a suitable topic of conversation to be had with a superior officer.

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:35:10

:: blushes and tries not to make eye contact :: Venya: Th-Thank you. It's a special family recipe! :: grins slightly awkwardly ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:35:42

Venya Kashar> So, I suppose I could not coax you to share? :: grins :: I'm certain they would be quite a commodity in the Fleets, you know.

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:35:51

<Amber Sun> ::Continues to roll around for a bit, before he finally manages to loosen up the toffee and swallow it, before standing up and realising Ilaihr was no where to be seen.:: Self: Where go Eduda?

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:35:52

TAC: It’s a party. Let loose a little! Ask a superior officer about fiddly bits! :: jokingly elbows her ::

TAC LCdr T'Lira 01-Jan-2020 21:36:08

:: just blinks slowly ::

NAV Lt Navarro 01-Jan-2020 21:36:41

:: moving through the crowd while dressed in a tuxedo, champagne flute in one hand, mixing easily with scoundrels and upright citizens alike ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 21:36:57

:: is wearing a bright teal one-shoulder dress with a high slit lacing up her right leg, coming up to join Jude and T'Lira, holding her drink in her hand :: TAC/SCI: If Lt. Commander T'Lira doesn't want to ask about it, then don't push her, Jude.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:37:52

:: rolls eyes :: TAC2: I am joking around, Grey.

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 21:38:13

:: notes several crew members, their locations and activities, but finds her nose leading her to the rumballs on the bar ::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:38:15

:: finally looks up at Venya, all business with a bit of a real grin :: Venya: I'm afraid not. Family secret, you understand.

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:38:36

:: has a few rumballs herself, smiling and waving to Kuari ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:39:10

Venya Kashar> :: nods cordially :: Lexy: Of course. I, of all people, understand the value of a trade secret. Do enjoy yourselves! :: moves off to mingle further ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 21:39:14

:: flashes an intense look at Jude :: SCI: It's Jasper when not on duty or ship-board. :: turns on her heels, going to talk to her favorite person on the Atlantis, Acacia. :: MED: Happy new Year, Doctor.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:39:24

:: smiles :: Lexy: You handled that well.

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:39:35

<Amber Sun> ::Stands on his hind legs, and surveys around the party. He holds his front paws out to hold balance, not as able to walk bipedally as Neme is; sort of waddling along.::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:40:21

:: leans slightly against Kate, letting the tension in her body relax :: CO: Oh please tell me I'm not dreaming and that's actually over.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:40:38

:: blinks :: Self: Okay then. :: looks back at T’Lira :: TAC: How does it taste?

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:40:47

:: grins, already a little tipsy and excited to see Grey, she reaches out to give her a quick hug :: TAC2: Happy New Year!

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:40:49

:: snuggles against her :: Lexy: At least that encounter is.

TAC LCdr T'Lira 01-Jan-2020 21:41:16

SCI: It is... adequate. :: is not entirely sure how else to describe a food item ::

NAV Lt Navarro 01-Jan-2020 21:41:36

:: makes his way to the bar, exchanging his champagne with another flute from a tray ::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:41:50

CO: That woman...! :: resumes putting hors d'oeuvres on a plate

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:41:56

TAC: Quite the complement coming from a Vulcan. :: grins ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 21:42:27

:: laughs and steps closer to Acacia :: MED: Someone's slightly tipsy, are they?

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:43:23

Lexy: She is used to getting her way in most things, with those pheromones of hers.

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 21:43:49

:: procures several rumballs gingerly from the platter, careful not to take more than her share, and returns Acacia's wave with a smile ::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:44:33

:: releases her, shrugging, :: TAC2: Well yeah, it's a party.

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:45:50

CO: I know the inoculation means they aren't supposed to work, but...

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:46:40

:: has finished his first whiskey, orders another, and walks around, adjusting his bowtie slightly as he departs the bar ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:47:28

Lexy: The inoculation is not perfect, love.

Venya Kashar> :: drifts by Wolfe :: Oh, look at you!

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:47:54

<Amber Sun> ::Awkwardly plods along, finding the festivities quite interesting if not a little strange.::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:48:39

:: finally perfects her plate :: Kate: I'm ready to follow you around while you mingle! :: giggles ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:48:44

:: turns to meet Kashar and stays business :: Venya: Good evening, Ma'am.

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 21:49:20

:: snickers, sipping her drink as she remains close to Acacia :: MED: Alright then... let me know if you need anything then. ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:49:24

Venya Kashar> I need to host more parties, to get you Marines out of uniform! :: drifts away ::

:: chuckles and eyes the plate :: Lexy: Enough for both of us, yes?

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:51:58

:: finds himself almost disappointed that she's moving away after such a short interaction. Almost. He continues milling about, nursing his drink and, well, mostly observing. ::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:52:03

:: coaxes Grey to sit with her :: TAC2: How have you been, man?

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 21:52:17

:: smiles widely at the taste of the rumballs, now very much associated with celebration to her. After sitting next to the platter, several scoundrels pass by in turn, peering curiously at them, and she happilly promotes them ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:52:35

ACTION> The rumballs are popular with the scoundrels!

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:52:44

Kate: Uh..... sure? :: looking mildly disappointed ::

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 21:54:15

:: after a break in visits to the platter, begins to wander. She eyes several platters being carried and, with the portion sizes being so small and her clunky paws, she feels it's more trouble than it's worth even just to taste the small portions ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 21:54:25

:: laughs, perching neatly on the stool next to Acacia :: MED: I've been good, nothing really been going on. What about you?

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:54:41

:: snickers and grabs something to nom on :: Lexy: You know, it is a relief to take a year off from hosting and just be a guest.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 21:54:44

:: eyes food, grabbing a few things ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:54:48

:: finds himself near Wright and Harper. :: Wright/Harper: Good evening.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:55:17

CTO: Benedict! I trust you are enjoying yourself?

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 21:55:42

CTO: Good Evening, Colonel.

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:55:47

CO: I am. This is an interesting setting for a party, but it works.

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 21:55:50

:: finally turns to the bar, ordering a double-sized chocolate drink ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:56:30

CTO: It does! I did not know what to expect, but I am pleasantly surprised.

Venya Kashar> :: drifts by :: Thank you, darlings. :: before vanishing again ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 21:57:21

<Amber Sun> ::Waves at crew as he passes them; at Acacia, and Grey even though he has a feeling she didnt like him so good. He keeps and eye out for Ilaihr, but did see the captain in the distance, and decides to waddle along to thank her for bringing him along to this strange place.::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 21:57:26

:: nods :: TAC2: Good. Busy, but good. I like that we at least have these parties to relax.

:: waves to Amber Sun ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 21:58:08

CO: As am I. And everyone is behaving. I do have a few unlucky Marines posted around, but I'm comfortable relaxing here. Well, comfortable enough.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 21:59:51

CTO: Ah, yes, you certainly seem relaxed. :: chuckles ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:00:12

:: pulls at his collar a bit :: CO: I rarely do so.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:01:03

:: shouts out :: CTO: Hey! Would you like some fiddly bits? :: gestures at her tray ::

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 22:01:20

:: gets her drink and downs the first half, smiling at the taste of cocoa ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 22:01:33

:: glances over at the shout, raising an eyebrow :: MED: Do... you know what Jude's talking about?

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 22:01:34

:: hears Jude's shout, then looks at the tray ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 22:01:44

<Amber Sun> ::Has some difficulty navigating through groups of people, his steps clumsy, as his senses keep pulling his attention to places other than the direction he's going, bumping people here and there; but with no one really wanting to argue with a bear, he doesnt notice and shuffles through unphased, with an excitable - if not lost - expression on his muzzle.::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:01:52

:: interrupted, looks down at Jude's tray. :: SCI: My. Aren't those... phallic.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:02:19

:: strolls over, offering the tray ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:02:19

:: finishes the caviar-laden cracker and perks up at Wolfe's comment ::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 22:02:22

:: glances over, replying deadpan :: TAC2: Yeah, they’re just dick shaped cupcakes.

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 22:02:30

:: also hears Jude's shout, since it's near her, and remembers something funny about "fiddly bits" but can't seem to remember why anymore ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 22:03:19

<Amber Sun> ::Leans in close to the captain and entourage, his nostrils flaring at the smell of fish eggs.::

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 22:03:31

:: looks at the cupcakes and, seeing as they're the largest portioned snacks available, thinks they're rather to eat and approaches to try one ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:03:58

:: laughs when the tray of cupcakes makes it into view ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:04:07

CSO: This is... "an awful lot of fiddly bits", ain't it? :: nudges and grins ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:04:13

:: then picks up another cracker full of caviar and offers it to Amber Sun ::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 22:04:16

:: blushes bright red when she sees the tray ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:04:56

SCI: Hmm. I have to admit, these are not my style.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:05:31

CTO: Would you prefer hole-y bits?

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 22:05:36

:: picks up a cupcake in her paw and quickly chomps the top half off, looking to the side as she judges the taste ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 22:05:44

<Amber Sun> ::Happily takes it, his long bear tongue trailing out of his mouth and clasping the cracker like a tentacle, before retracting back into his maw:: CO: Thaaaahhnk yOouuu ::Makes chewing sounds.::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 22:05:46

:: somehow manages to blush harder ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:05:51

:: starts laughing ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:05:55

:: just fed a bear caviar! ::

Amber Sun: You are welcome!

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 22:06:15

:: looks towards the other officers, rising from her seat and offering Acacia a hand :: MED: Want to join them?

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:06:23

:: then grabs a cupcake and bites into it ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:06:42

:: totally unemotional about it :: SCI: Or perhaps some booby bits.

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 22:06:57

:: smiles at Harper :: CO: Too sweet!

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 22:06:57

:: nods, getting up to go get another fiddly bit ::

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 22:06:59

:: is threatening to melt into a small puddle ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:07:04

CTO: Jiggly bits.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:07:08

XO: No, just right!

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 22:07:39

:: shakes her head in disagreement, her eyes crossing at the remains of her cupcake, attempting to peel the paper off ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 22:07:43

:: approaches the group, neatly balancing in her heels :: All: What... are you all talking about?

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:07:54

Group: Or perhaps... Some Wright Family Rumballs. CSO: Those are, after all, a tradition. :: cracks a bit of a semi-friendly smile ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:07:54

TAC2: Bits.

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 22:08:10

<Amber Sun> CO: Do not understand the festival. But am enjoy it. ::Gives a pointy toothy smile, his tongue poking out between and licking at any loose cavier.:: Many thhhanksss for letting me come.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:08:22

:: cackles :: CTO: Some balls to go with the fiddly bits.

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 22:08:33

:: groans, rubbing her forehead neatly :: SCI: Really? And phallic cupcakes?... Someone's drunk.

CMO Lt Tailor 01-Jan-2020 22:08:49

::swishes into the promenade in her favorite purple dress, looking around at the lights and decoration, taking it all in::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:08:49

TAC2: Indeed.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:08:51

Amber Sun: Of course! You are a cultural liaison, after all, and this is part of our culture! :: offers him more caviar ::

MED Lt Acacia 01-Jan-2020 22:09:05

:: shrugs, mouth full of cupcake :: TAC2: They're good.

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:09:23

TAC2: They are good.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:09:24

CSO: Perhaps we can pair off for the next party.

CSO Cdr Wright 01-Jan-2020 22:10:15

SCI: P...P...Pair off?

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:10:19

:: polishes off the fiddly bit, and then licks her fingers ::

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:10:38

CSO: Yes! Your balls with my bits. :: tries to hold back laugh, but fails ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:10:53

:: laughs, then is reminded about rum balls and moves away to get one ::

TAC2 1Lt Grey 01-Jan-2020 22:11:00

:: shakes her head in dismay :: SCI: I'm gonna be waking you up with a bucket of ice tomorrow. :: warns ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:11:08

:: of course, she snuck a few when they were being made, but still ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 22:11:20

<Amber Sun> ::Can't two foot anymore, and plonks down on the floor, his eyes going wide at the prospect of more cavier.:: CO: Yeesssszzzzzzzz. ::Crouches down, practically stalking one of the pates on the table, before pouncing and snacking down.::

NAV Lt Navarro 01-Jan-2020 22:11:25

:: approaches to see what all the commotion is about ::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:11:26

:: also heads that way, having spotted them on the bar :: Ah. There they are.

SCI LtJG Jude 01-Jan-2020 22:11:51

TAC2: If you do that, I will hunt you down.

XO Cdr Kuari 01-Jan-2020 22:11:55

:: finally manages to fish out the rest of the cupcake from its paper with her tongue and tosses the paper in a bin before picking up her drink from the bar, looking around ::

CEO LCdr Ilaihr 01-Jan-2020 22:12:07

<Amber Sun> CSO: You, are the keeper of the sky magic? How do you do this? How do you make food with your magic?

<Amber Sun>::Lick his lips.::

CTO LtC Wolfe 01-Jan-2020 22:13:09

:: arrives at the bar, picks up a rumball, bites into it, and then thinks a moment. With it still in his mouth, he brings the glass of his whiskey up to his lips, swallows, and sips... and his eyes open in delighted shock. :: CSO/CO: You have to try this. These rumballs are a fantastic pairing for this whiskey. :: holds the glass out for them to try ::

CO Capt Harper 01-Jan-2020 22:13:41
