Standing Promise #250

Original collection portrait #250 of 666. Standing Promise #250 lives in a hotel kettle that still smells of tea. Mornings start when the kettle does; they tip the plant the last sip. Drink of record: Flat white, heart or nothing. Caffeine 1/10. 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

Flat white, heart or nothing

Personality

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