The more Coop talks, the more Newt starts to suspect his friend is a borderline alcoholic. Or maybe he's even crossed the border, there's not even hard evidence yet. Newt likes to drink, the condo's always pretty fully stocked in case they have company over, but for the most part, it's just a beer or two most nights.
"As far as drinks go, coffee's more a mistress for me," he says. "Wouldn't be able to get through the day without it. Allison, she's a friend, works over at the lab, she tried real hard to hold an intervention for me. Thought I was drinking way too much caffeine. She wasn't successful, it's too formidable a bond."
Even Kate hadn't bothered to jump on that train. Besides, drinking assloads of coffee had been exactly what he'd needed to stay up for days on end in his effort to save the goddamn world. If anything, coffee is totally his co-hero and without it, he might not have been sleep-deprived enough to think drifting with a kaiju would be a good idea. In summation: coffee, yay.
"Anyway, what're you havin'? Because I might just buy out the whole place, I'm so damn hungry."
