Nightchade yes, I too was a bit worried about the Fool hitting the old apricot brandy so much! Your post highlights to me that it was very much more a feature of the Tawny Man series. I don't recall him getting drunk in the Farseer series? And I don't recall Amber getting drunk?
Yet, as you point out he had been drinking before he makes his very first appearance in Tawny Man. Just part of his Lord Golden persona? Or just a bad habit he picked up? Hmmmmm.
Edit: Another possible drug - what about the serpents and their toxins?
Interesting thoughts on the dragon tattoos! Yeah that makes sense.. it's certainly one explanation!
I also wonder if she tattooed anyone else like that?
