"That is legit."

"I'm sure there are pleasanter ways to fork. ...I wonder if that's a thing magic can do, in general, like, not that I necessarily want to, but..."

"I don't especially want to either but it would be interesting to see what else in that vicinity might exist, if it's a thing."

Permalink

"Yeah, exactly!"

"Transhumanism is fun!"

And here is the dining hall! What is for dinner?

Permalink

The dining hall is arranged in a series of concentric rings, the outermost ring being outdoor seating, the next ring being indoor seating, and then the two inmost rings being buffet-style food service. The innermost ring is for normal human food--for highly multicultural definitions of "normal"--and the outer ring is divided into slices for various kinds of specialized diet.

Huh. As far as May knows wulongs don't eat anything weird, but do any of the weird things look appetizing?

Permalink

Weird things include such mundane diets as vegan, kosher, and halal, and the vegan station has an extremely tempting coconut-milk chocolate cake, but she is unlikely to be interested in any of: 

-The station with bars of various colors of shiny metal, which Emily swoops upon,
-The station with various colors and consistencies of ink,
-The booze station,
-The insects station (unless she wants to try chocolate-covered ants),
-The extremely discreet station for live prey.

She does not want to try chocolate covered ants today, though coconut chocolate cake does sound pretty cool and if the normal food section doesn't have anything competitive she will grab some on her way to the tables after collecting some chicken dumplings and a stirfry noodle thing.

Permalink

Desserts available in the normal human food section include brownies, soft-serve ice cream in more flavors than usually get made soft-serve, mochi, little fried dough balls labeled "gulab jamun," a sponge cake labeled "malva pudding," and turkish delight.

May dispenses pistachio ice cream onto a brownie and floats over to wherever the twins are at.

The twins have secured one corner of an indoor table. Edie has a vegetarian gyro with extra tzatziki sauce and gulab jamun; Emily has a beef stirfry, a slice of the coconut chocolate cake, and several bars of various metal alloys, one of which she is currently sucking on the corner of like a chocolate bar.

"Hello again!" She plops herself into a seat and sets in on her noodles.

Permalink

"Hi! This place is impressive."

Permalink

Nom nom. "Yeah, the food is good, I'm probably not going to need my magical picnic anytime soon."

Permalink

"Fried dough is a sort of specific thing to have a favorite kind of, let alone to have your favorite kind supplanted, but I am not complaining."

Permalink

"Is that sticky thing fried under all the goop?"

Permalink

"Yep!"

Permalink

"Well, congratulations on discerning your new favorite fried dough thing."

Permalink

Emily finishes her current bar of metal, pulls a pair of lacquered chopsticks out of her bag, and starts in on her stir-fry. 

"Personally before shifting any favorites I'm going to see how this place does the old favorite."

Permalink

"Yeah, I'm not being very adventurous yet. Enough new things to adjust to without trying chocolate covered ants. Who eats those, I wonder."

Permalink

"Frog people?"

Permalink

"Huh! Are there frog people witches?"

Permalink

"Heck if I know. But it wouldn't surprise me."
