Yo everybody, Exotos135 here, throwing a drabble into the mix of several longer, probably much better stories.

This very, very dang short drabble is based on a segment (I say segment, I mean more like a short) of Pop Team Epic, where the main duo, Popuko and Pipimi, are in France.

If I say anything else this author's note will be longer than the story itself, so let's get going.


Nagisa Momoe, the daughter-like tenant in Tomoe Mami's apartment, overlooked the city through the apartment's window, while holding a glass filled with some orange or yellow-ish liquid.

"Ah, another day in this city I like to call my home."

Nagisa moved the glass a bit as she contemplated the glass.

"And in this fine city morning, there's no better way to start it, than with this stuff they call... beer. At least, that's what Mrs. Kyoko once told me."

Nagisa smelled the glass, and moaned with a smile.

"Ah, a fragrance so strong, yet so sweet at the same time, it's no wonder adults would find themselves captured by its allure."

Then she took a sip, and she hummed.

"And an equally citric, yet sweet taste as well, which brings great joy to my tongue-tasting thingies. Truly, this "beer" does the impossible: Combine sourness and sweetness."

Nagisa moved the glass again and rested her chin on her hand as she looked at her reflection.

"How it does it, nobody may ever know-"

And then Mami complained from the couch nearby, with a pair of grilled cheese sandwiches on the table in front of her:

"Would you finish your breakfast already?! I'm not giving you any cheesecake otherwise"

Nagisa turned to the blonde girl and looked at her with a look of displeasure. "You're no fun sometimes!"
