I turn the box marked "Tea" round and round in my hands. Dare I read the label more closely? I have to.
Genuine imitation Earl Grey tea from Methorphia IV - a British colony settlement planet. Guaranteed to be nearly almost quite like a shadow of the real stuff, if anyone remembers what the real stuff was like, anyway. Warning: Prolonged usage may result in loss of short term memory. Enjoy!
Wincing, I look up and see Uruviel peacefully baking. Suddenly, the tea seems fine, the kitchen seems like heaven and all's right with the world. I move to put the kettle on.
