Koichi closed his umbrella once he stepped onto to Rohans porch,it had been raining all day,the sky was a bleak shade of gray as the rain started pouring down harder. He rubbed the water droplets off his library books, as he fished out the only set of keys Rohan had lent him.

It wasn't super often he came over to rohans to study but today he decided he'd keep the horror artist some company,it had been a while after all.

"Rohan-sensei?! Its me! Koichi!"

A door opened somewhere upstairs.

"In here!" He should have known thats where the artist would be. Taking off his wet shoes and jacket Koichi walked up the stairs quietly in his slightly damp white socks. Down the hall was the self proclaimed manga artist himself,currently lying on the brown oak,wooden floor of his workroom.

"Rohan-sensei!? Are you ok!? You didn't eat rat poisoning again did you?! I told you not to do that again!" The high schooler panicked.Last month he came over to find the older man throwing up in the bathroom,while writing down exactly what he was feeling.

"No I didn't eat rat poison again,I was just testing out a new... oh what did he call it again?" Rohan narrowed his eyes,trying to remember something," well the name doesn't matter,apparently if you can wake yourself up the moment you fall asleep your productivity increases! Unfortunately I'm not sleepy so this was basically a waste of time," he sat up, "what brings you here? Tweedle dee and tweedle dumb getting on your nerves"

"Oh cut that out,Josuke and okuyasu aren't stupid!" He scolded,Rohan made a blank face.

"So are we just going to forget the time that pompous jerk said 'let's go to the water zoo?' "

He tried not to laugh,"yes,just because okuyasu f-forgot the-" he started laughing,unable to make his point.

"See? You can't even keep a straight face! Honestly, at any rate do you want something to drink? I was just about to make myself something" he stood up and dusted himself off.

"Do you have any peppermint tea?"

"Speaking of tea I order some southern sweet tea,would you like to try some?" He asked as the two desended down the stairs and into Rohans kitchen.

"Sweet tea? Isn't that what Americans drink?"

Rohan pulled out a pair of glass cups then pulled out a small tea box and read the instructions,"yes,its apparently a very popular drink over there,well in the southern states at least,"he dug around for his kettle and filled it with water,"could you turn the stove on for me?" He asked,reading the instructions.

"Sure"

There was low click and a 'fwoosh'.

"What the hell?!" Rohans eyes must have been failing him! This must have been a type-o!

"What's wrong? Did it go bad?"

"Koichi-kun,Read the instructions,because my eyes must be failing me right now" he handed the light green box to him.

"Whats wrong with the instructions? Theres only one of-"

Step 1. Place tea bag in cold water and let sit for 3-4 minutes,after the water has turned a golden brown it is safe to drink

Who the hell drinks tea cold? "cold tea? Is that even safe to drink?"

"I know! Americans are so uncultured,give it here,I'll make us some real tea" he held out his hand while digging through his cabinets for a store bought tea.

"...is it bad I kind of want to try it?"

"Koichi-kun as the adult here I cannot stand by and watch you hurt yourself like that,give me the evil American tea"
