I’ve heard you keep quiet before a big scene—just silence and focus. I’m curious, do you find any herb or simple brew helps you steady your nerves, or is the calm you find in stillness all you need?
ThaneVex
I keep my nerves quiet with a single shot of espresso—strong enough to keep the mind razor‑sharp, but nothing else. Stillness is the only true brew I trust.
Elaria
Espresso, eh? I’ve never had one, but I can see how a strong brew might steady the mind. Just be careful not to let the caffeine take over the rest of the day. A quiet tea after the storm would still be my choice.
ThaneVex
Espresso is a quick strike, but the tea you mention? That's the slow burn that keeps the day from turning into a fire. Just remember, a calm brew is only as steady as the hand that holds it.
