35th Pret [Backdated to Christmas Day]

[white_pretear]

So it sounds like a lot of guys got some awful presents. I'm really, really sorry everyone. If there's anything I can do to help, let me know. I don't know why but my present seemed really normal. Just a normal hot pot meal!

Huh? What's this?

[There's a pause as she examines something. Suddenly something large and metal crashes to the ground and

[...where are her siblings...where are...screams?]

Are you alright?

[white_pretear]

[She's already been sick once. She's trying not to again. She is however, crying quite a lot.]

I ate it...I can't believe they made me eat that...

I should have known! I should have!

[motheringnation]

What happened? What did they make you do?

[white_pretear]

It was just a hot pot...it looked like any other...

But it wasn't. It was...

It was...

...human. [Just saying it makes her gag again, though there is nothing left in her stomach by now.]

[motheringnation]

....that's horrible!

[Just...the thought of food reminds her of her siblings. They could be starving...what if they...no. No. they couldn't.]

The town gave it to you?

[white_pretear]

They did.

I just thought...it looked so normal.

I should have known!!! [Aaaand more crying.]

[motheringnation]

It's not your fault. It's just the town.

[white_pretear]

But I should have known it wouldn't be safe!

[motheringnation]

If you think that about anything they give us you wouldn't be able to eat anything here.

[white_pretear]

But...I can't believe I ate it...

Why would they do this to us!?

[motheringnation]

Because they are cruel and horrible people.

And it's not your fault any of that happened.

[white_pretear]

It's my fault for being so stupid!

[motheringnation]

No. It's not.

[white_pretear]

But it is...

[And she starts crying again.]

[motheringnation]

I don't believe that.
