Hey.

I think I need help. I've been really thirsty lately.

I mean like REALLY thirsty. Never been like this before.

Any ideas?

How do you mean, "thirsty," exactly?

I mean, ever since we got back from Faerie, I've... that wine they had there, that's all I can think about now, and nothing I've tried is like it.
The other night I was dreaming about it, and it was so real and when I woke up I was crying because it was just a dream.

Well, we did try to warn you... That stuff is like crack. Sounds like you're suffering withdrawal symptoms.

Do you know where I could get more? I mean, can you even get it here?

You'd have to ask the Celts about that one. But I highly doubt it.

Fuck. fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck godsdamn I need it.

...where are you, anyway?

I'm in a Starbucks. They've got free wifi but no wine.

...could you be more specific?

I'm in south Seattle. I don't know the exact address. I was about to go try to hunt up these bootleggers I know...

Ok... Look. Do you think you can find your way to my place? You can crash here for the night, and tomorrow, we'll go see Dr. Oram. OK?

Um...can you send a cab? I'm not so good with walking right about now.

And where, exactly, am I supposed to send it?

Sounds like you need to dry out, man. In the fastest possible way. Lock yourself in a room with lots of water and juice and ride it out. Take your cell phone and call if you need to talk.

I tried to lock myself in here, but the baristas frowned on it.

Dumbass. You don't lock yourself up in a public place. Don't you have an apartment or a friend with a closet you can borrow?

It does so appear that I do.

Oh, dear. You drank from the cups of morning dew, didn't you? Have you always been so bad at following good advice?

The what the hell are you even talking about?

You ate or drank something in Faerieland. Is that clear enough for you? Sweetheart, you are in for one hell of a rough come-down. I would say I'm sorry but Mab and I warned you, reveler.

When you have a magical goblet of wine in your hand, you don't ask questions. You just don't get it...

Make yourself a tea of evening primrose or fennel. Chew on peppermint leaves. Oh, and keep a bit of iron on you, just in case.

Or eat a nice steak if your poor stomach can handle it.

And don't tell me what I get or don't get, my dear. I was raised on that stuff.
