I was wondering if anyone had any empty bottles they don't want and wouldn't mind giving to me? It's okay if they don't have tops, as long as they're glass it's okay. I wanted to ask sooner but being called a communist... people seemed pretty busy, I didn't want to bother anyone

I don't have any bottles myself, but I would check with Patroclus. Having a restaurant, I'm sure he would have access to empty bottles.

[ohvirility]

I will. Thanks for the help!

What d'you need the empty bottles for? Is it for an art project, can I help?!

I don't think Cronus can read these, though, that would be kind of strange.

[ohvirility]

They're not for an art project, but I just like the way they look. I think things taste better if they've been in glass bottles, too, that plastic stuff is really weird. ... what kind of art could we make with empty bottles?

Sometimes I think he can... because if he can do stuff like make everything black and white, then wouldn't he be able to read these? I probably just shouldn't think about it.

[panglossianelle]

Yeah, did you know plastic bottles actually give off toxins?? So when you drink out of them your water has soaked in toxins! So yeah glass is better!

Oooooh We could...paint them and make them into kaleidoscopes or flower holders, or we could make strange little chandeliers with them....or uh, one of those things that makes noises when wind blows.

I guess that makes sense...but I don't think it's making him any madder, on the bright side - he was already pretty mad to begin with!! (:

[ohvirility]

. . . so why do people drink out of them? That's so dumb!

A wind chime? We could break them (carefully and stuff) and then paint them or use different coloured glass. They'd make the nicest colours on the walls! Or if it's normal glass, we might get lucky enough for a light rainbow!

I guess that's true... and, um, I'd rather be here than dead or something.

I don't have many now, but once the restaurant opens, I will have some to give you.

[ohvirility]

Oh, um, your Patroclus, right? You're really going to open a restaurant?

That would be really great! Do you want me to, um... pay for them or something? I don't want to take away from your business.

[menotthink]

Yes I am. It's opening on the 27th--you're invited to come if you wish.

No, you don't need to. We'll be making a profit with the price of the wine, so it's no big deal.

I wouldn't worry about Cronus reading what is said about him. The rest of us have said far worse.

[ohvirility]

Okay... after all this I'd just rather be safe than sorry.

[fatherofthetide]

The former won't happen for a while anyway.

[plumbagoblue]

More colorful now that it's not black and white? Wo-ah. Brilliant, aren't you?

[ohvirility]

I'm not brilliant, but things were kind of quiet when I first got here, and then that happened and everything just exploded. It's like people woke up or something.

[plumbagoblue]

Pfff. There was a curse.
