    At least she didn’t say she’d be right back…

    While the ginger root and boba tea may (or may not, I’m only from Southern California, and so would not know) be adequate substitutes for the motion sickness meds and booze, I’m fairly sure the sympathy isn’t going to work to get them out of there. Good thing they know an Osprey ^_^

    Scrips. Well, that confirms it.

    I read her as having an Australian accent.

    The hat made me do it. Honest.

    (I also ran a search to see if there were any significant dead “Claire Connelly”s, but I’ll accept responsibility for that one.)

      Maybe it’s another Kickstarter cameo? Or, well, an original character.

      Check the Funky Mad Genius list in volume 4. She’s the first one listed.

      It’s me! I actually have a weird accent, after stealthily absorbing parts of my English partner’s accent, so, maybe. I’ve actually never had boba, so perhaps my cameo is being disingenuous.

        Yes, trust me, it’s no substitute for booze. But I don’t like boba, so devotees may see it differently.

        No, even they wouldn’t say it’s a substitute for booze.

    Surely they can at least offer zinfandel.

    Wait. That might not help.

      Zinfandel always helps. At least, you’ll have a rather different problem from the one you started out with

    (TUNE: “Ebony And Ivory”, Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder)

    CHORUS:
      Boba tea and sympathy,
      I’m afraid that that’s all you’ll get from me!
      And some ginger will cure your cause o’
      Nausea,
      Ea-si-ly!

    You’ve arrived,
    So here’s the scripts you need to keep you alive!
    I’m Miss Connelly,
    Keep close to me!
    If you go astray,
    You’ll end the day as dinner!
    One-by-one, you’re picked off!
    (Though Ginny’s ticked off!)
      (repeat CHORUS)

    Ginger root is, in fact, an adequate substitute for motion sickness meds. Especially when in a strong preparation.

    Unless you’re talking about the first 40 or so minutes east of Redding in Northern California on Hwy 299. Ohhhh, the nausea, the nausea.

      Missed this the previous times through the archives…Oh yeah, I’ve been there. Extra credit: The whole route from Eureka to Redding. God tier: At night.

    Oh, come on, now. Don’t pretend you don’t have real booze in California. You got mad booze in California.

    Why? Were they signed by the late General DeGaulle, and therefore not to be rescinded, or even questioned?

    Wait, only two scrips? She was counting on this happening!

      Two scrips, one each for the only two humans in the group.

          Artie is, strictly speaking, not human.

            Artie probably has all the paperwork he needs already. Not that you’d need a passport to visit a wine bar in any case.

    I’m fairly certain you can get booze in California.

      Yeah, but it causes cancer… like everything else.
