Plot

Zed Hudson stumbles into Ophelia Resnick's coffee shop, barely standing, and claiming that his superpowers are fading and quickly ingesting some caffeine is his last chance. Unimpressed, Ophelia serves him his cup and asks him why he can't just ask for “the usual” like everyone else, with Zed cheerfully dropping the act to tell her that “the coffee deserves better” than “normality”.
