How much coffee is too much coffee for a pokemon?
Asking for a friend.

It's not.

[Riz readily agrees with that. In fact, it's the sort of mild injury that you would probably end up ignoring completely in the middle of battle. But they are not in battle now. There is no reason not to stick a few bandaids to Mando's wounded finger.]

But I'd feel bad if your finger, like... rotted off or something.

[Riz soaks a swab with some disinfectant and starts wiping at Mando's finger.]

Plus, you're lucky it's nothing bad. I'm no cleric. All I know is some first aid.

[singlespacedad]

I'd be impressed if PI could bite hard enough to make it rot off.

[He genuinely would be! That would be some great biting! Alas, though, just a few scratches.]

You're doing fine.

[He gestures at the sulking Yungoos with his free hand.]

Just keep him away from your coffee in the future, please.

[nightyorb]

I'll try, but look at him.

[Please look over to where PI is laying on the ground, sulking his little head off.]

He's absolutely gonna try and get it again. Mom said I did the same thing as a kid.

[singlespacedad]

That doesn't surprise me.

[Mando is convinced Riz's blood is more caffeine than fluid at this point.]

Do you think he'd drink decaf?

[nightyorb]

No one should drink decaf.

[It goes against the very reason why you drink coffee!]

[singlespacedad]

[Yeaaaaah, not going to touch that one.]

You could mix decaf and regular for him, so he doesn't get too wild.

[In fact, that's not a bad idea for Riz either. Mando wonders if he could slip a scoop of decaf into the regular on the sly.]

[nightyorb]

Maybe.

[Does Mando really want to handle Riz while he is caffeine deprived? Does he really want to put himself through that hell?]

[singlespacedad]

[Look, he hasn't crawled out of a Sarlacc pit like certain other Mandalorians, but Mando has dealt with some gross, fraught shit. He's pretty sure he could survive Riz coming down off caffeine.]

[... maybe.]
