"Don't worry," Robyn said. "You'll be out for most of it."
She slid a large mug towards Pockets. Its face proudly declared 'BIG HUG MUG.' Pockets sliced open her wrist with a fang. She bled into the cup until Robyn directed her to stop. She poured enough of the blood to cover the collected phytocopia, which she proceeded to mash into a paste. She then spooned the bloody mush into the reminder of the blood. She gave it a stir, and the poultice effervesced. She set the nug in a pot of water to steep. She stared at it impatiently. "Can't rush this part," she commented.
Pockets had found something more interesting than her gadgets. She watched with morbid fascination. "I bet you make good weed butter," she remarked.
"I make great weed butter," Robyn retorted with a laugh. "I'm not big on edibles, though. That was more Sunny's thing. That girl could put 'em away."
No shit, thought Liam.
"I had to learn for Mike," Pockets said. "He couldn't make it through the night without 'em. I botched my first two attempts, and by the third batch I was overcompensating so hard I kicked his ass. Poor fucker woke up so stoned he forgot how to walk."
The three shared a laugh, then a sigh. Something unspoken passed between them, and they all thought of the respective pieces of themselves that had left them behind.
After a moment, Robyn cleared her throat, and attempted to dispel the increasingly awkward silence. "Well, no worries about hangovers with this," she said, changing the subject. "It'll put you to sleep and you'll wake up refreshed. You might have some trippy dreams, but I'm not even sure vampires have them." She gave the simmering potion a stir. It gave off a few small sparks, and fizzled quietly.
