*Me, asking for a strawberry waffle cone cream frappuccino yesterday in the Starbucks*

Ye-yeah, the coffee always black! Like real men!

You know, as a mediterranean guy, I must admit it triggered me a bit someone speaking about real coffee and Starbucks on the same post... Even if my mediterranean identity is often questioned by my friends because I prefer tea over coffee...

Tea suits better with sweet and spicy things.... Like Penelope :whistle:

Don't worry, I don't think about starbucks' coffee like real coffee. And I'm mediterranean too, but in my country the coffee is garbage (always roasted :cautious:) so yeah, I'm a tea guy too, but a day was a day.

I think in France we're doing ok in the "coffee" departement except if you go to Paris, never go to a "café", you'll only get a capuccino for 4 euros (approx 4.31 dollars) so you're getting screwed :whistle:.

On a fluid volume basis, nothing would beat the coffee I had when I visited Cuba once - they have these little 2-4 oz cups and the stuff is like rocket fuel. AND it's tasty as hell!

All this talk about "real" coffee and here I am thinking...

"Real, garbage, instant, brewed, natural, commercialized...don't care for any of that. Just give me something that looks like it'll cause palpitations or a quick trip to the ER by just staring at it and I'm golden."
Agreed 100%. When I feel that morning sand-brain headache creeping in, I don't care about "caramel triple machiato", I don't care about "being a real badass man and drinking black" I dont care about any of it. All I care about is getting a large quantity of caffeine into my system as fast as possible.

This will probably be my last "work" before I made something with animated characters ;), had fun while discovering a new way to make fan sig, tried to alternate between making what I would call "scenique" fan sig and more static one.

Special thanks to Takkatakka and Elhemeer (y), both have been really helpful during the process and have been the "judges" on some of the fan sig, so if you don't like them go complain to them :devilish:.
Joke aside, If you have any complain/advice or else please don't hesitate to talk to me by DM about it, I want to improve so each constructive cristiscim is very welcome (even harsh ones as long as they are constructive)

Disclaimer: I know some are better than the others and for that I'm sorry, I was more "inspired" for some of them which can only result in difference in quality.
(also If you want some "combo" like for ex. putting Luna's sig and Alex's sig into one sig just DM me I'll do it for you ;))
Luna:

Alex:

I have (finally) finished the whole set of fan sig for each Girl, will post them below under the spoiler tag to not "pollute" the thread too much and that way those who don't want to see it will simply skip over this post :).

Kinda hard to find a good name that loosely fits the character AND include the name in the word at the same time
LunaLaikas (space themed. Used capital L because Laika is a name of its own)
Nancymancers (i think the double nc combo sounds good)
Pennypreachers
Anniebodies (because she can appeal to most people)
Alexandrettes / Alexandreads
Daliadreamers (no, not feeling it)
Novaphytes

Sugar? Pfah. I'd rather add another tablespoon of coffee to mine. "Coffee should be as black as the darkest of souls," or so a saying that I've heard goes.

Why yes, I'm addicted to caffeine. Why'd you ask?

I got just the song, fam...


Dark Fragrance of Coffee for one of the best prosecutors in the Ace Attorney series, Godot.

Here's the original:


And in terms of coffee, he only had it dark. Man's man if you ever saw one.

No doubt tea is great and tastes better, I love an english breakfast with lemon juice and honey.... but it just doesnt give that kick. If I could find a tea with similar caffeine content, I'd be all over it.
Try Keemum, that's a proper nice black tea!
I always remember being told that tea has more caffeine than coffee, which is technically true (when unbrewed).
Tea leaves have 3.5% caffeine, whereas coffee beans only have 1-2.2%, but coffee has more extracted, more quickly, by the hot water than tea does.
Coffee is quick release, you get it all in one hit, whereas tea is much slower. It's like the difference between getting glucose from a can of coke, as opposed to long chain carbs that take hours to convert to glucogen.
If you want tea with more caffeine, add more tea to the pot & just leave it to steep for longer.

Yarp. My tea is: Tea, Earl Grey. Hot. I leave it steeping for at least 4 or 5 mins. Tend to watch YT vids while waiting, usually vids on the war in Ukraine. I love watching orcs get what they have coming. So by the time a vid is half done, it's extracted everything.

Nova was missing in that video, but then I remembered that she was drinking coffee and eating those donuts with mucho gusto back at that modelling studio.

Wonder if she managed to gulp down one or two donuts and drink some coffee on her way to log into Eternum for the search of Calypso? :unsure:

She was, but unfortunely the video only had 6 examples. And I've already wasted way too much time editing that :KEK: And even then I suck at it.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure Dylan741 will take his revenge. Only time will tell. If I suddenly disappear, you already know.

edit: now I've noticed the last is basicly 2 at the same request, but oh well. Anyway the source is there, if anyone wants to fix it.
