Second attempt: Mug of dark roast with a bag of darjeeling soaked in it for the appropriate time.

Result:
This time the darjeeling was overwhelming. As before, the fragrance of tea overpowered the aroma of the coffee, however, unlike before the tea was way more strong, with the aroma of coffee barely cutting in whether during initial tasting or the after. Much more to what I expected in my initial attempt, the two flavours barely mixing and the drink being rather two palettes clashing. Added milk and it didn't really help, I think rather made it worse, with the tea now being even stronger and coffee just being a confusing after taste hiding behind the darjeeling. Once more finished with honey and that completed the drink, finally tying together the two flavours.

Now I am not sure if it's just that soaking a teabag/tea directly in the drink produced this result, or just that darjeeling is that strong of a leaf. But it is clear that compared to percolating the leaves with the beans, it does result in the tea flavour being much more present. Further research will be conducted with different tea leaves and mixtures. Science marches on!

Addendum 1: Attempt brewing tea with the percolator alone and see how well it turns out to have a comparison towards soaking tea regularly in a pot or a cup.
Addendum 2: Acquire a french press for combined brewing experiments as it will give better control over brewing time, especially allowing different soaking times for coffee and tea. Initial hypothesis: allow coffee to brew longer and tea less for best combination of flavours.

"Mirror, mirror on the wall"

Now I want to try seeping teabags in coffee or maybe mixing coffee and tea leaves before brewing it.

Addition: So I tried it. Brew a large mug of coffee and tea, coftea I suppose, with a percolator. Used 1:1 ratio, as many spoons of coffee and leaves. Coffee used, dark arabica roast. Tea used, black, presumably pekoe of some sort, only thing written on the bag with labels in Italian only.

Result:
Interesting, I presumed the flavours wouldn't blend at all, but surprisingly it formed a coherent blend of black tea and coffee. Bit lacking dark, so I added milk and eventually honey and that turned it into this mild, but deep drink. Curiously, the coffee aroma is somehow almost completely subsumed by the fragrance of tea. Similarly the first taste is that of the pekoe, but then it gets this stream of coffee and the two fuse into one unique texture that I can't precisely explain. I theorise that if I brewed a whole pot, the tea would have more time to soak, as the percolator cycle for just one mug is quite short, compared to the 3-5 minutes you are supposed to let the tea soak in to extract the flavours. Next time I shall try making a whole pot. Research will continue. Science marches onwards!

Ameeeeeeeeeee

Kiwi Houdini.

Best couple makes a comeback. Guess the horror of the spooky month is realising there won't be another one until several years down the line.

I don't think I've seen this done with boobs, especially like this. Usually it's butts or stealthy gap-groping.

4G, that is the real horror here.

Fun Finnish fact: "pistää/lyödä jauhot pussiin/suuhun" - "to stick flour into a bag/one's mouth" is an idiom to strike someone speechless in a conversation or an argument. Quite amusing they are using that as power words, since a spell duel in a way is an argument using words of power.

Selfcest is a complicated masturbative act using an organic toy (your own clone, younger self, etc).

Always be thankful of your seat neighbours for pretending not to notice.

At what point can you bite into Miko or Suisei that it becomes more Miko than Suisei or vice versa, endangering the balance that is MiComet and then we get an impact event?

Cece is 100% childish Frieren.
Ina is 100% fumufumu Frieren.
Together they are: infinite useless books Frieren!

So who is taking the picture?

Do you think "no biting" will ever be nothing else but 'do bite, but not that much'?; which of course translates to "bite"?

^ Haircut->screen filled with Gigis.
Oh yeah, it's all coming together.

^If it gets so tangled that it has to get cut, will an ahoge sprout from another bit of hair, or will it take time to regrow?

And then the author introduced Yoruichi's little brother out of nowhere...

There will never be enough 2hu highschool works.

She could also just off the editor if he pushes too much.
And anyone else who starts talking to her crush.

Or she could be Count Dracula in disguise.
Or a female clone of Adolf Hitler.
Or she could summon Cthulhu, or bring an alien army to destroy Earth.

She could! She could, COULD!! Be afraid, be very afraid!

/sarcasm off

I for one would read a manga about Count Adolfina Hitler of House Drăculești, the High priestess of Cthulhu and conqueror of Earth, especially if it also was yuri.

So we have a former ganster/yankee father; plain but adorable mother; stylish OL or Uni student eldest sister; some weird gyaru with dreadlocks 2nd sister (what is with all this adopted talk that kind of fashion exists in Japan); presumably otaku 3rd sister and finally our other MC who seems to take after the father to form up a quite adorable and funky family.

And on the other corner we have a damn adorable looking best friend, I suppose. Is it just me or does she look a little like Kuroki?
Hope we will get to see more of the supporting characters in future chapters.

Well they are popsicles and things are getting quite hot, ya know.

How comfy must it be to float with your morning coffee instead of walking?

@FluffyCow: 'cause spending Halloween at a camping site making sweet teen love is a sure way to be the first victims in a slasher film.

A very good interpretation of the Battle of Britain if you ask me.
