I disagree.
Can a non-alcoholic (no beast, no AV) look at an alcoholic drink and think it looks tasty? Of course. So why can't I?
As I have previously noted, that reasonable thought (
it looks tasty) will be overwhelmed by my beast, but that doesn't mean I can't have thoughts about alcohol that don't originate with the beast.
