Warm Drinks
By Dark Ice Dragon
Frankenstein just smiled as he watched everyone tumble through the door and out the cold, laughing (well, that was largely Tao and the children) as they changed shoes and shucked dripping jackets. It looked as if they'd just escaped from a snowball fight - Frankenstein hoped they hadn't involved the entire school again.
"Hey, B - ooh, what's that?" Tao peered at the steaming mugs sitting on top of the table.
"Hot chocolate," Frankenstein said. It was a new recipe that he had been trying out and testing over the last couple of days - he had finally achieved a taste that he found acceptable.
"I see, I see," Tao said, nodding. After everyone had gathered around the table, drinking their hot chocolate, the children chatting about what had happened just before they had arrived at the house (thankfully, it hadn't involved the entire school - just half), Tao had somehow gotten into the position of sitting nearest to Master. When Master put his cup down, Tao glanced at it, and then his expression turned confused.
"That doesn't look like hot chocolate..."
"Of course not," Frankenstein said. "It's chocolate tea."
Tao only blinked for a second before snickering. "Of course you'd make that."
Frankenstein just raised an eyebrow at him but Tao didn't elaborate and Frankenstein sighed when Shinwoo asked for a refill. Well, he'd made more than enough for them all; he turned to fetch the pot.
Chocolate tea! Chocolate tea does, in fact, exist. 8D
