Fannish 50: 2024: Everything is Murder edition: #24: Tea

I like tea. I drink Twinings Ceylon Black Orange Pekoe. I also drink ITO matcha and the rare Earl Grey. I have a box of manzanilla (an infusion NOT TEA) because sometimes I get a strange 'bone-cold' and it's the only thing that helps for some reason.

I have used tea as prompt for fic for a long time.

My fourth most popular fic of all time is called Oolong and it's part of a genderswapped BBC Sherlock series called 12 Cups of Tea.

I used tea again as a prompt (and made it murder-y) for my last 2024 GYWO Yahtzee fill and for my Intoabar fic.
