Shroomer
by Kenovay
JC pulled at the back of his T-shirt uncomfortably and smiled shyly. "Um, no. I've not tried them."

Chris' eyes narrowed. "Not tried 'shrooms? Or not tried drugs in general?"

JC glanced at the floor. "Drugs in general," he admitted.

Chris blinked. "What, like,
never?"

"Not really."

"Weed, man? You've done weed, right?"

"Um." JC kicked uncomfortably at the carpet. "I tried, like, once. And it was like�"

Chris nodded. "Coughing, right?"

"Yeah."

"But 'shrooms are different! They're like-" Chris waved his hands. "It's like normal food, but they make you high!" From the beam on his face, it was obvious that this was a good thing.

"Yeah? What's it like?" JC shifted in his seat.

"Like� it's all� colourful and happy and shit." He pushed the plate of mushroom-type things towards JC. "Go on."

JC looked uncertainly at Chris. Chris nodded brightly, and JC reached out with a fork and skewered a 'shroom.
Notes: Iconficlet for forceofisis. I've never taken drugs, and, to quote escapist_xbq: next time you have to write something about drugs, ask me. i've done . . . well, no details, right, but a lot, so i know. and they are NOT like normal food!! they taste *awful* and they make everyone, literally, everyone sick to their stomachs. and it's more a trippy-crazy high than a pretty-swirly high. depth perception goes all screwy. or, uh, so i hear. :) So, apologies for inaccuracy. The icon is from escapist_xbq, and is gakkable, if you give her credit.
