26 - when in rome...

[Second level time! Human!Tav, complete with hair down and wearing a modest shirt for a change, is staring at a bowl of breakfast cereal with disdain. No doubt she's been staring at it for a while now and the cereal has gone soggy. She seems less than thrilled with this whole human notion of "eating".]

I'm not eating this. It's disgusting.

[Vexen can guess that there's more to this than it seems, but you always have to start with the simple questions to weed out the answers.]

I fail to see how eating can be demeaning.

[stained_wing]

I don't appreciate being forced to consume materials to stay alive.

[icyacademics]

At the least, it's simpler than many alternate courses of action.

[stained_wing]

It's horribly inefficient.

[icyacademics]

Indeed.

And am I to assume that this is only a temporary state?

[stained_wing]

I would hope so. If it is not then I will be quite unhappy.

[icyacademics]

Clearly. [SIGH]

[stained_wing]

Do you want this... thing? [Indicates the cereal.]

[icyacademics]

I can see little reason why I would.

[stained_wing]

I have no idea how anyone could find this appetizing. There has to be something else in this place to eat that isn't revolting.

[icyacademics]

Given the circumstances, I would hardly think taste matters.

[stained_wing]

I would rather it didn't look like the end product first. [Shudders just thinking about that eventuality.]

[icyacademics]

[8| Opens the cupboard and grabs the first box in sight- hello, colourful fruitloops.]

Perhaps this would be more suitable.

[stained_wing]

[Regards the bright colours suspiciously.] It looks like it's radioactive.

[icyacademics]

[Flips it over to read the ingredients- actually hoping that is IS radioactive so he can study it further, but that's beside the point.]

The contents, at the least, appear to be harmless.

[stained_wing]

Ah, so it's just unnaturally brightly coloured then.
