Preverbal Grinder #16

Original collection portrait #16 of 666. Preverbal Grinder #16 lives in a backpack with a socked pitcher. Mornings start when the kettle does; they order in a whisper so the foam does not flee. Drink of record: The one that is still warm. Caffeine 9/10. Same illustrated kitchen as the named cast — same cups, same disasters, slightly different fur. They are not a mint. They are a regular.

Favorite drink

The one that is still warm

Personality

Preverbal until the first sip, then a different species. Keeps opinions in the mug and treaties on the fridge.

Dangerous after

a microwave mug that used to be soup
