Based on a realization and conversation I had with a friend last night after rewatching Hanky Panky Hullabaloo and realizing that his name's canonically spelt Double Dee
Edit: Ah! I should probably add on the fic i wrote about this same subject! I apologize for the plug, but here it is! I’m quite proud of it, if I’m to be honest. It’s my first attempt at writing the characters so i hope i did them justice! https://archiveofourown.org/works/45898885
1 1/2 ounces unaged genever, preferably Old Duff Blended Dutch
1 1/2 ounces sweet vermouth, preferably Carpano Antica Formula
1 barspoon Fernet-Branca
3 dashes chile-infused orange bitters (see Editor’s Note)
Garnish: orange twist
Directions:
Stir all ingredients with ice.
Strain into a chilled Nick & Nora or coupe glass.
Twist the orange peel over the top of the drink to express the essential oils from the peel, then use the peel to garnish the drink.
Chile-Infused Orange Bitters:
Pour one 5-ounce bottle of Regans’ Orange Bitters No. 6 into a glass jar with two Thai chiles (also called bird’s eye chiles), cut in half. Cover the jar. Macerate for 6 hours. Strain and return the liquid to the bitters bottle, then cap tightly. Keeps indefinitely.

Not pictured: White shoving his entire spooky ghost self into Brown's suit because How Dare anyone ignore him
That being said, WHITE'S BACK WHITE'S BACK WHITE'S BACK, I shoulda known this fucker wouldn't stay gone for long!!! White, my guy, you died like SIX YEARS AGO, have you been haunting Brown this WHOLE TIME??? I'd say get a life but I wouldn't want to give you any ideas - no, NO, I don't CARE if possession is nine-tenths of the law, that isn't what that even MEANS D:<
In other news, I am 100% convinced White has been perving on Brown by watching him whenever he gets it on, but is really bored and annoyed at how Brown always tops now, so every time it happens, White just keeps yelling dumb shit from his Boring Ghost Limbo like 'put a fukken dick up your ass already! >:['
Brown and Co. in upcoming chapters, probably:
I don't know how they think those knives are gonna help. Guys. Guys. He's already DEAD. What are you doing
the amazing alien ghost cube is so amazing that it can be whatever size is most convenient for the joke to work
Got one more doodle incoming soonish (plus a five page comic uhhhh In Time - look, it's a big project, okay???), but in the meantime, I actually have been working on my own original stuff, too, I promise. See, I have this doodle of Shio sans headcovering here and- why is it under a read-more? ...No reason :]
Aren't they beautiful? :3c
Fun fact, Shio doesn't even have to look like that, they could literally shear off the fucked up bits and spend a few months regrowing it, but NO. They just- choose to be horrifying. (It is very useful for scaring the bejeezus out of unsuspecting humans, after all...)
Actor and theater producer Sir Charles Hawtrey needed some magic when he wandered into the American Bar at London’s Savoy Hotel in the early 1920s, looking for a drink. “Coley,” he said, “I’m half dead. What can you do to make me quite alive?”
The “Coley” in question was Ada “Coley” Coleman, head bartender at the Savoy and, at the time, perhaps the most famous female bartender in the world. Her father died in 1899 when she was 24, and being unmarried found herself with a sudden and somewhat urgent need for a job.
She got hired at a London hotel arranging flowers, then moved to the bar, and then ultimately transferred to the big leagues, to the American Bar at the elegant Savoy Hotel. She was a gifted bartender, endlessly charming, and quickly worked her way up to head bartender, where she served for 22 years.
She hosted Mark Twain, Charlie Chaplain, the Prince of Wales… it goes on and on. “It was she who made the bar famous,” asserts cocktail historian Ted Haigh, and indeed, when she retired in 1925, at least two different London newspapers published articles documenting her legacy.
