Blue Cocktail's Fancy Curled Straw

A delicate, curled paper straw rests in the blue cocktail Borusa drinks during the tense TARDIS pool confrontation. The straw's curled end bobs slightly as Borusa lifts the glass, its ornate design contrasting with the swirling panic around them. The once-elegant sip now feels like a provocation to the Doctor's wrath as he warns of fields of cloned Sontarans.
