Ever since he got out he missed the smell.

Determinred to have that stench in his nose again, he contnued his charade of telling people that they didn't know what they were missing.

They were using the wrong methods.

They didn't know they were the fools.

It always was.

Floating in the water.

Pouring himself a mug of his concoction.

Sipping it back.

Smiling as the burn went down his throat.

A small cough as he drank more.

There is no better liquor than pruno.
