video ♪ take a walk on the wild side
Who: Varric and you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Varric's bar on the Iskaulit
When: Now
[video;]
[Like Varric's promotional videos before, the feed does a slow pan of the dive that he owns. And then it centers on the bartop, which has a line of wine bottles on it. The glass is black and so are the labels aside from the gold skull and the words VELENO VENO.
Varric pulls up a seat in front of the camera. He's dressed in his best-- a black and gold embroidered silk shirt, buttoned only halfway because of course. And he's wearing a grin, of course.]
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Varric Tethras, owner and proprietor of the Space Bar, and today... I've got something new and exciting for you. [He grabs a bottle of wine and pops it open with a flourish. Then he pours it into a glass. It's black with just a little dark purple in the light.] In Tevinter, wine made from venomous snakes is considered sacred. Well, as sacred as anything in Tevinter can be. It's long been associated with virility, purity of body, and curing difficult ailments. But don't worry, this is animal-free. Snakes are disgusting. Don't eat snakes. Also, Tevinter sucks.
Instead of drinking reptiles, consider this wine: beautiful and deadly, like that woman sitting at the corner of the bar that you're scared to talk to. The wine has notes of persimmon and apple-- as well as a dash of water from the toxic moon.
[Varric's grin broadens. He lifts the glass to his lips and takes a sip.]
Mmm. We only made a few cases, so get it while you can. 500 credits for a bottle with a thrill.
[And the feed ends.]

[Some time that evening, probably. It's been a while since he visited the bar - exploring planetside and training and such - so he's looking around to see if anything's changed before he gets to the counter.]

Thanks. Anyone died yet?
