What kind of drink are the 2 npc warriors gonna get?

[the300]

Coffee? Milk? Share your ideas here

[Accountant]

Blood.

....

[tahu88810]

I'd assume coffee.
But it might be beer.

Of course, either way both of them will fall. Love is LE :smallannoyed: .

[Cade Shadow]

They're not paladins, they're warriors

For some reason, i imagine them getting tea.

All of the nameless NPC's that we've seen (except for the ones in teh throne room) were warriors.

Hey, the General might've even been a warrior. In the same way that Shojo was an aristocrat.

[mockingbyrd7]

1) They aren't paladins. They are soldiers; paladins have capes and wear blue in Azure City. They look identical to the other nameless soldiers.

2) Since it's a "cup of-" something, it would probably be coffee; that's the standard. Beer doesn't usually come in a cup (as far as I know) and milk is a bit... odd.
"Hey toots, let's go get a cup of milk!"

:smalltongue:

[tahu88810]

Oh, I thought they were pallys but were just two low in rank/level to be left in the throne room...
>_<
silly me.
Well, if they were paladins than they would fall, 'cuz love is LE.

[mockingbyrd7]

They're not paladins, they're warriors

Tea could work too.

[holywhippet]

I'm guessing they'll be going out for some hot coffee ala GTA: San Andreas.

[Mad Scientist]

I do think that coffee is a standard date drink, since beer seems to be excluded on account of not being served in a cup. But since Azure City is asian themed maybe they are going for tea or soup.

[tahu88810]

When I said 'beer' I meant most alcoholic beverages were possible.
Rum and coke, anyone? XD

AND, I was joking about the love being LE thing...even if its true... >_>
---

But, puting that aside, I think they were talking about coffee.

[CardinalFang]

Coffee would be typical, but it might be tea since Azure City is based on Asian cultures.

[SteveMB]

But since Azure City is asian themed maybe they are going for tea or soup.

Sake, perhaps?

[the mysterian]

moogle blood

[TroyXavier]

I'd agree with sake.

[Scatman]

NamelessNPCAde!
Bestest for the nameless NPCs to get rehydrated!
:xykon:It even helps regular NPCs get rehydrated.

NAMELESSNPCADE!BUY IT NOW!

[mockingbyrd7]

I'd agree with sake.

Sorry to be blunt, but what is sake? Rice milk?

[TroyXavier]

Rice Wine usually.

[Imrahil]

Though, ironically enough, the process by which it is made is actually more akin to beer rather than wine.

[Alysar]

I'd assume coffee.
But it might be beer.

Of course, either way both of them will fall. Love is LE :smallannoyed: .

You're crazy if you think love is anything but chaotic.

[Deme]

For some reason, i imagine them getting tea.

I agree. I always filled in the end of that with "tea"...it might be because of the aisan thing, or maybe because I like tea.

[kirbsys]

Im pretty sure that when that came out last night it said tea... or maybe I just filled it in automatically... hmm... I did see it rightw when it was posted...

[Deuce]

A big old cup of Absolutely. :smalltongue:

Of course since "come on up/in for a cup of coffee" seldom has anything to do with coffee . . . :smallwink:

[Setra]

Either Sake, Tea, Coffee, or Unicorn Blood.

[Talyn]

Unicorn blood is too expensive for a couple of level 3 or 4 warriors. I'd say coffee - it's the standard "date drink." If they make it.

I hope they do. I always root for the nameless NPCs.

[explanetpluto]

They will drink coffee.

And then the cafe they're at will be destroyed by Haley, Belkar, and Roy's corpse.

[NeonRonin]

Yeah, I'll go ahead and say that since this is Azure City, they'll be getting tea or sake. Maybe tea and sake, even.

Now, on a completely random tangent, what would other characters' preferred beverages be? Real or imaginary drinks, doesn't matter which.

I could see :thog: downing a mug of Skull-Whomper Dark Ale, preferred drink of barbarians and other classes with Intelligence as the dump stat. :smalltongue:

[the300]

I'm guessing they'll be going out for some hot coffee ala GTA: San Andreas.

lol :smalleek: :smalleek: :smalleek: :smalleek: :smalleek:

[Pvednes]

Well, everyone always says coffee--but it always ends up being hot chocolate.

[Tolkien_Freak]

Sake, coffee, or tea. Probably sake or tea, and most likely tea.

EDIT: Or it could be a cup of 'Absolutely'. You never know, the guy might have been being literal...

[Wardog]

I agree. I always filled in the end of that with "tea"...it might be because of the aisan thing, or maybe because I like tea.

Same here - infact, I didn't even notice it was left incomplete. When I first saw this thread, I thought "Wait - they said tea. Why is anyone asking about it?"

Maybe its because I'm English...

[BisectedBrioche]

Let's analyse this, beer/ale/etc comes in pints, wine and milk come in glasses, and cups usually refer to mugs. Mugs usually contain warm brown beverages. Tea is a warm brown beverage as is coffee and coco therefore it must be one of them.

Far Eastern cultures are not known for coffee or hot chocolate, thus it must be a cup of tea. Because, as everyone knows, people from other countries have their own crazy versions of everything* (I hear that some of you fellows in the US wear your pants and no trousers :smallbiggrin:) it must be herbal tea.

This herbal tea is most likely a trademarked blend popular in Azure City which goes by the name of "absolutely".

*calm down I'm joking

[Thanatos 51-50]

I'm a fan of the Sake theory, or maybe some Absolut?
(Just because noone else had made that quite obvious and unfunny joke, yet.)

[Carteeg_Struve]

Definitely a cup o' loooooooove. :smallwink:

[Twilight Jack]

A big old cup of Absolutely. :smalltongue:

Of course since "come on up/in for a cup of coffee" seldom has anything to do with coffee . . . :smallwink:

One of my favorite exchanges from any movie ever proceeds as follows:

Girl: So, would you like to come up for a cup of coffee (makes meaningful eye contact).
Guy: (not really getting it, but holding eye contact) Umm, I don't really like coffee, but . . .
Girl: (deadpan) I don't have any.

[Mummy king]

I thought that quote, from Brassed Off, went:

Gloria: Do you wanna for some coffee?
Andy: I don't drink coffee
Gloria: I haven't got any

WINK WINK

[BisectedBrioche]

I think it was also in an episode of Futurama.

And by "think" I mean the episode "Put Your Head on my Shoulders"

[Jayabalard]

since neither of them is the president of Burundi, they'll probably get a cup of coffee

[Accountant]

So I guess I'm the only one who thinks there getting a cup of blood after this. :smallannoyed:

[FdL]

Wow. This sure is an interesting point to debate. The implications of a single ellided word could span hundreds of pages of speculations. No way this is a minor excuse to come up with random stuff, this is really something major. Clearly the kind of conversation worth archiving in those expensive web servers.

Let's thank Mr. Burlew that we have a space in the internet for discussing such vital things as this one. I bet he'll be really proud of having a message board when/if he reads the outcome of this thread.

Gee, thank you, Captain Bringdown. Some of us are just in it for a little fun, and others like to see how other people think.

Without the internets teh sun will switch off.

[evileeyore]

My vote is they go out for a tall glass of hot torrid sex.

What? Its what I'd want.

[Mysticaloctopus]

You're crazy if you think love is anything but chaotic.

Love knows exactly what it's doing. Sometimes, something that has big plans everywhere appears chaotic, but I'd put money on it being lawful bored-stiff-and-after-a-laugh-manipulating-the-fates-of-men.

[Fishies]

I assumed it was tea.

[Arnen]

My first thought was "coffee", but then after a moment of thought I decided it was probably tea, going with Azure City's Asian themes.

[Breaon]

My first thought was "coffee", but then after a moment of thought I decided it was probably tea, going with Azure City's Asian themes.

To stay in theme: Sake house.

What they should go get? Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters (per the bar, Zaphod's, in Ottawa.)

[Scatman]

Kitten blood.Simple as that.

[slipper]

A nice little cup of
BOW CHIKA BOW WOW

[mohair_ninja]

Cup of sake, hmm... assuming it's not a large mug, it contains as many alcohol as one 0,5 l beer. (sake is around 20%)
And Giant said somewhere that his comic is read also by kids, so if the Noname-zaki interrupted just after "cup of", it must be sake.
Tea wouldn't be censored.
Or maybe it's something so horrible, so poor little innocent Belkar couldn't hear it without harm to his health, so Noname-zaki prevented the Word to be spoken and therefore heard by our favourite halfling ranger? :smallconfused:

[TheLogman]

To those who are suggesting something of the BOW CHIKA BOW WOW persuasion, jeez, those warriors are all of the following:

Mentally scarred from war
Unsure of their feeling for each other
Not that familiar with each other

They are not gonna "Get funky" anytime soon. I'm thinking probably tea. The only reason that the guy was so quick to respond is cause there's a hot girl that wants to take him on a date.

And if the Giant was gonna censor Sake, then he probably would have censored the part in the Sake warehouse with Belkar and Miko as well.

[EyethatBinds]

Guy: (not really getting it, but holding eye contact) Umm, I don't really like coffee, but . . .

So I'm not the only person who has made this mistake? I feel slightly better now.

[Gaelbert]

I'd assume coffee.
But it might be beer.

Of course, either way both of them will fall. Love is LE :smallannoyed: .

For love leads to the dark side.

[RocketBard]

They both went to get a refreshing cup of prune juice.

[Thanatos 51-50]

Two words:
Stress Relief.

[Miraqariftsky]

Methinks 'tis tea.

[Gez]

EDIT: Or it could be a cup of 'Absolutely'. You never know, the guy might have been being literal...

The voice recognition software failed. He wants a cup of Absolut Li, the famous Asian-themed vodka.

[Arnen]

To stay in theme: Sake house.

Also true, but I was getting a sort of non-alcoholic vibe. *shrugs*

[Rason]

I am pretty sure they are getting a cup of mountain dew, I mean they have been fighting hobos for like, 2 weeks, after that much Gaming, I'd sure want a MD. Although the guy is probably thinking of getting himself a nice steamy cup of clam chowder.

[Setra]

I lawl'd

Seriously.

Well it was more of a snicker.

[Emperor Ing]

{Scrubbed}

:smalleek: what are you telepathic or something?

[ObadiahtheSlim]

They only drink the blood of their enemies, or perhaps a strawberry Yoohoo.

[Scatman]

As I said before...

KITTEN BLOOD.

It keeps the hair shiny and asian..

[Wardog]

1, sake is normally served in cups that are more like shot-glasses in size.

2, most sake I've seen or had was only around 12-15%

3, why on earth would anyone want to censor the word sake?

It's not a rude word. (And even if it was, it couldn't be worse than anything already used in the comic).

And I can't think of anyone other than the most puritanical tee-totalers or over-zealous child-shielders-from-reality (e.g. Childcare Action Project) would think children must be protected from even knowing the existance of alcohol.

And the Giant certainly doesn't think like that, otherwise he wouldn't have included all the other numerous references to alcohol that have been made. And if he had censored those, it would be bizzare in light of all the implicit sex and explicit violence in the comic.

4, I certainly don't see that as "censorship", merely an indication of how eager the other soldier is to take up the offer. (Maybe he was just really, really thirsty, and didn't even care what he was getting to drink :smallwink: )

[Scatman]

I suppose I could say Sake or tea...
Kitten Blood.

[Snipers_Promise]

removed image

Ok that was funny. But Sersiouly I think its Sake or Tea.

[David Argall]

And maybe he didn't care if he got anything to drink, at least if he had a chance at something better.

[Mr Teufel]

Sake is often served warm, in a small ceramic cup. So "cup of sake" is common useage.

This is of course the most important thread on the entire board internet. :smallwink:

[Grizzt]

They are going to drink tea with a splash of sake (and by 'spalsh' i mean 'wow how did we finish the whole bottle in two cups?'). It fits. They need stress relief and something light to drink.

[BisectedBrioche]

Ah, today's strip has made it all clear.

They're going to get themselves some Orangina.

[TreesOfDeath]

Coffee or Sake

[the_tick_rules]

tequilla, the start of a fun night.

[Mystyco]

still, can be (insert object here) blood, who knows?

"would you like to maybe go get a cup of -"
"Absolutely."
"-human blood?"


still, most probably (TONS OF) Sake or even some coffee...i don't think that after surviving a city assault and get into a safe place with the main-character party would lead you to take "a cup of tea" :|

[Bunny]

Ovaltine?

Bunny

[AKA_Bait]

tequilla, the start of a fun night.

If by fun you mean marked by either violence or violent illness.

[Vulion]

Cofee's more of a western thing, so I would have to say tea.

[Gez]

Well, of course it's tea. Duh. I mean, would Mr Warriorman have said "Absolutely" if what Mss Warriorwoman offered wasn't his cup of tea? :smallbiggrin:

[I'm da Rogue!]

Whatever it is, I hope it's not blue.:tongue:

[This_Dude]

I still think it'll be a big ol' cup of STFU. Because, in my mind, it ends with each of them having something of the other's in their mouth, so no talky-talky.

But if it's blue, it could be Blue Cuaraca, Blue Maui, Blueing, or Bluebird-of-paradise-extract.

[comicadv]

Root beer! Lots and lots and lots andlots andlots andlotsandlotsandlotsandlots

Of ROOTBEER!!!!!!!

[Wardog]

And maybe he didn't care if he got anything to drink, at least if he had a chance at something better.

Oh, I'm sure that's why he answered so quickly.

My suggestion of "maybe he was really, really thirsty" was just a joke (hence the smilie).

[stabbybelkar]

I agree with Breaon on the pan galactic gargle blaster
