A word of caution





Be immensely careful

Should you ingest a concoction known as a pumpkin spiced latte

Why? Is there something wrong with it?

[ Fluttershy didn't really mind pumpkin spiced lattes, and would drink one occasionally. But if there is a problem with it, it's best to know now so she doesn't get one in the future. ]

[sassymaru]

They attempt to steal your energy! And your youth!

[shiningkindness]

Steal your energy?

[ She'd never heard of pumpkin spice lattes doing that before. Unless there was something different about the ones in this world? But they wouldn't sell something if it was so dangerous, would they.

...Unless... ]

Oh wait. Was the latte very sweet?

[sassymaru]

It was. I was under the impression that was a general property of theirs.

[shiningkindness]

[ Okay, she might have an idea of what is going on. ]

They usually are. But if there was a lot of sugar in it, you might just be experiencing a sugar crash.

[sassymaru]

A... what? A crash?

[shiningkindness]

A sugar crash. It happens when someone ingests a lot of sugar. They get a spike in energy pretty quickly, but then it peters out just as fast.

[sassymaru]

I was

Unaware such a thing was possible

[shiningkindness]

I guess it's your first time really consuming that much sugar?

[sassymaru]

Much to my shame

Yes, it would appear to be so.

[shiningkindness]

It's okay. Sugar crashes can hit pretty hard, especially if you don't normally have that much sugar.

I think you'd be okay to keep drinking pumpkin spice lattes if you really wanted to. Just be careful about how much sugar you're having.

[sassymaru]

This body is such terribly high maintenance...

[shiningkindness]

Well, I suppose it can seem that way if you're not used to it. But I'm not sure it's really any different from, say, taking care of the Pokemon around here, or even taking care of a car.

[sassymaru]

I can assure you, vehicle maintenance is far less complex than the human sort.

[shiningkindness]

Oh. I guess it might be for someone who is more used to it. But it's probably more difficult for someone like me, who isn't as familiar with it.

Kind of like how you're not as familiar with a human body.

[sassymaru]

I have not been human for terribly long.

At least they make manuals for vehicles.

[shiningkindness]

[ She laughs to herself, and is a little glad that this is just over text. ] That's very true.

[sassymaru]

As irritating as it is to be outdone by a human form...

Your information is greatly appreciated.

[shiningkindness]

You're very welcome. I'm glad I could help somehow.
