Non-Canon Illus: Two Best Friends Drink Coffee

Description

I love coffee. And, figuring that Skyrim has a lot of Scandinavian/Norse influence, there would have been coffee in the game (since the Scandinavian countries drink the most coffee per capita, so I'm told). But, no. So, I will always be longing. (Well, if I had the PC version, I'm sure someone's made a coffee mod). 

What? Our Dragonborn Khajiit and her Nord Friend are in modern-day Earth clothes? Yup. Just to satisfy my desires for these two to experience modern-day Earth, I was considering writing a set of scripts where after the Dragonborn expels Alduin from Skyrim (spoilers), he makes his way to Earth. A book about our Dragonborn Khajiit somehow also makes it through the wormhole and is discovered by a team of scientists who then try to bring this two heroes to Earth to stop him. That's when they get to experience Earth culture and find out just how different (and how similar) the worlds are.

Sounds terrible? Yes, it was terrible. In the initial writing process, I realized that it was just working up to be a bloated, terrible, Hollywood-style summer action movie bomb with the occasional furry joke. So, I deleted the hell out of it, and decided to satisfy my need by doing a series of non-canon illustrations called "Two Best Friends..." (Yes, somewhat inspired by the let's play channel on YouTube). So, this is the first of... many-ish. I also have a mini-comic in the works, too. I love torturing these guys.

Yeah, my Khajiit's coffee cup is in a weird angle. I should have fixed that, but I didn't. Sorry.

I can imagine that coffee couldn't grow in Skyrim, but you make a valid point: the Norse drink a lot of coffee, and the vikings were also interested in it, after they traded with the Arabs. Now, I'm pretty knew to the series, so I'm not certain, but maybe coffee could be imported by the Redguard? Who seem to have a much warmer climate. Oh! Or perhaps the Khajit, who also seem to prefer the sun; there's those travelling sales-kitties, after all.
