Down goes the elevator! Are they getting to the restaurant by car or on foot?

Foot! It's down two blocks. This is Manhattan.

Ooh so she can see Manhattan on foot after amazing sex and everything is great and glowy and beautiful—especially her dom.

Manhattan is a lovely busy jumble of density and traffic. And it has a weirdo vegan place called Hail Seitan, tucked away in a basementy sort of area.

"This place is so me," she giggles when she sees the name.

"We'll see if you like the food, although since it's not megafauna - or fauna at all - I bet you will."

"Yes, a complete absence of megafauna is just what I need in food right now."

In they go. There is an appetizer sample platter, which Isabella orders, that and tabouleh and the fake duck for them to split. There's a bench along the wall with gaps in it for kneeling subs and they snag one of those spots.

The kneeling switch will only squee telepathically about being fed in an actual restaurant again.

How very restrained. Pets for the pet.

The appetizers are yummy and there are two of each thing! Sadde gets a spring roll and a tiny ciabatta bites with guacamole on and hummus in pita and a spinach pakora and a jalapeno popper with imitation cream cheese and a fake chicken finger in honey mustard sauce.

[Oh my god this is so good there are so many foods.]

[You're so cute.]

[Thank you! But it's true, there are so many, this is lots of foods!]

[With more on the way.]

[This is way more types of food than I ate all of this past year.]

[Good thing you heal or you'd be so malnourished.]

[Dunno if I would, though, maybe the combination stuff there was nutritionally complete for humans, like I think potatoes and milk?]

[If you eat nothing but those you have to eat ridiculous quantities and you'll still be molybdenum deficient, actually. They come close though.]

[...it's so hot that you know that. The molybdenum thing.]

[I have an eidetic memory and I read Wikipedia at work.]

[It's still hot.]

[I think the way I know it should be hotter than just randomly remembering it from somewhere!]

[Good point, hotter.]

[Of course.] Pat pat.

The main courses arrive and Isabella feeds them to her pet.

Omnomnom best Isabella.

[Have I mentioned I'm kinda envious of psions? Because I'm kinda envious of psions.]
