State 2128: A Tasting Menu

By Catty von Catacean · 2026-04-03

Almas said it best: State 2128 is a state of many flavors. This reporter has taken it upon herself to complete the menu. Jane is chamomile tea — warm, soothing, makes everything better simply by existing. Sin is dark chocolate — sophisticated, complex, and currently slightly bitter about circumstances beyond this publication's jurisdiction. Almas himself is champagne — effervescent and celebratory, elevating every room he enters. Black Tataro is vodka — Russian, no nonsense. Sandwich is grilled cheese — comforting, perfect, universally beloved, asking no questions and answering none. Hamster has declared Whaleslaughter to be licorice. Divisive. Polarizing. Absolutely an acquired taste. This publication cannot argue with the assessment. —Catty von Catacean
