Sebastian was very helpfull last night, those drinks he gave me were very strong.

All I can remember is that I couldn't walk or talk properly, so Sebby let me put my arm around him to help me get back to his place.

What a lovely man, he is now my bestest mate. I might ask him to take me to the doctor I have pain in an unusual place.

I selected another raw one from the fridge and he seemed genuinely surprised that I didn't want cooked salid noooo:
