Catachresis - not just a metaphor

We'll send the penguins up for fresh clothes. I want a Harlequin outfit. Meanwhile, let's have coffee. And liqueurs. And extremely thin chocolate mints.

Of course it wasn't you!

*Gazes at Persephone's angelic features, completely taken in.*

Now, how about some liqueurs? Benedictine. Cointreau. Drambuie. Sambuca. Chartreuse. Creme de Menthe.

*Penguin waddles off to collect drinks order.*

Hang on, that was just for me. What are you two having?
