Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've never taken an upper stronger than caffeine (and even then, the only time I drank coffee more than once a week was when I was doped out on meds) and I'm really very sure that I don't want to take any uppers. But for some reason I have trouble parsing not wanting to be drunk without having already been drunk.

All told, as a child, it was probably simpler for me to get my hands on alcohol than on caffeine--we were served alcoholic drinks as children, but never coffee. But if it had occurred to me to ask, I wonder when I could have had some.

It's probably somewhat similar to that feverish sensation, but generally pleasant and relaxing rather than icky as long as you don't push it to the point of nausea.

I've found that avoiding Goldschläger helps immensely with that last.

And if you DO do the Goldschlager, do what we did in college and at some point, decide you should file it with the cleaning supplies to avoid it next time.

Yep. That's basically what I mean by non-drinkers who have never been drinkers. I understand trying and not liking. I don't understand not trying alcohol before deciding, barring a family history of addiction.

Seriously, I should buy some to keep on hand in case I ever accidentally swallow poison. It's better than ipecac.

Why is it when there is a catfight outside, my guys come running to ME looking alarmed, as if I'm the one howling?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

drunk is more fuzzy , less dizzy than a fever. And done correctly - ( meaning slowly sipping in quiet convivial co) you can go from over wound to relaxed very quickly. And without side effects, because it doesn't take very much.

I'm hoping that the falling apart front door of my building is the result of a structural collapse and not a break-in attempt.
