BEVRAGE - TIMELINE #20861944
🕑 Added 2024-08-20 15:08:11 +0000 UTC(Timeline Tuesday #160)
Hailing from a nearby timeline, beverages are small land crustaceans who have made this reality their home through stealth and deception. The creatures appear similar in size and shape to a standard porcelain coffee cup, their hard shell even taking on a similar smooth feel and weight. They have a small growth protruding from their side, which replicates a sturdy handle. Bevrages come in a variety of colors, although a subtle eggshell white is the most common.
This species also features a belly covered in dozens of small, scuttling legs, as well as a cluster of six eyes at the front and a small mandible mouth. When resting in their disguised form, a bevrage will retract these features into its body and close is many eyes, rendering itself nearly indistinguishable from a standard cup.
Through tiny glands, beverages are able to produce their own liquids that will eventually fill their inner hollow. Using various secretions they are capable of producing almost any flavor and texture, although they cannot change the inner liquid temperature. Fortunately, bevrages are capable of withstanding up to ten minutes in a standard microwave. Along with these flavors, however, beverages can also produce a particular psychoactive effect.
Drinking from a beverage causes the target to quickly find themselves angry with the concept of food in general, repulsed by any groceries they have in their house or sickened by their options for eating out. Instead of solid foods, they will only drink beverages, brothy soups, or smoothies. This state lasts approximately twenty-four hours and is known as “bevrage psychosis.” While in this state, the victim will take all of the food they own, then open it up and leave it sitting out, often on the counter or on floor of their home. Once the victim leaves, the bevrage (or bevrage pack) will begin its feast, consuming as much as possible before scuttling along to its next target.
