There's something terrible about this menu.

I just served someone ham and eggs and now they're laughing. For no good reason. When I told him to shut up, he just kept laughing. Yesterday, while serving food in the second-class car, someone ate a pancake and started crying. He had food, what was he complaining about?

And it wasn't even the terrible dishes, like that cheese dish— camembert in aspic. That looks like something to cry over, not pancakes and syrup.

Don't eat the eggs. There's some surprise mash served in the first-class dining cart that I wouldn't serve my dog. And what the hell is brown soup? Frothed wine soup? That just seems like a waste of good wine.

I'll just show you instead. Don't eat anything crossed out. I've taken to making most of my food instead of attempting to eat this. There are no proper meals here, beyond one decent rice dish served for tea. Try that, if you're hungry.

For the other meals, don't eat anything crossed out. It's awful.

The poor would thank even this feeding.

[inkfire]

[ buddy he's been there. it still doesn't mean it's okay ]

You would feed starving people slop that's barely fit for animals?

[downswing]

You have not starved.

[inkfire]

Bold assumption to make, senior.

[downswing]

I address a spirit?

[inkfire]

Yeah, a thing of nightmares.

Do you think only those who died from it experienced starvation?

[traaaaaash]

it does say "ham and laughter eggs". not their fault if you can't read the instructions

the cheese was something, though

why would you imprison cheese like that?

[inkfire]

why the hell would laughter eggs make you hysterical, though? I thought it was the type of egg.

whoever came up with this menu had terrible ideas.

[traaaaaash]

and a weird sense of humor for sure

tho i could go for some laughter right now

[inkfire]

The eggs will make you laugh, but if it's caused by something else, is that really your laughter?

[traaaaaash]

i mean no but i'll take just about anything right now

Wow. So Five wasn't being weird again. We really should let other people eat our food first.

Thanks for letting us know!

[inkfire]

You should. Keeps people from poisoning you.
And here, at least, you can see what the hell is going on with them before trying the food yourself.

[cosplayqueen]

Yeah but, I feel kind of bad about it tbh!!

[inkfire]

Even with this food, which is just awful and messes with your emotions?
It's not going to kill anyone.

[cosplayqueen]

Okay, true, but he's my friend!! It's my job to worry.

Ah, those are very much appreciated.

Would you need help with cooking?

[inkfire]

Can you chop things?

[topoiran]

That I can. Probably the best I can use a blade, still.

[inkfire]

Not much of a fighter?

Syrup is nothing to cry over.

[He agrees heartily as someone with a sweet tooth.]

Though we should try not to waste food.

[inkfire]

No food is worth crying over. But definitely not syrup.

Should people still eat food that impacts their emotions so strongly?

[wooden_one]

Definitely not syrup.

If they are hungry, I suppose anything would do.

But perhaps if people eat it in smaller amounts it doesn't have to be wasted.

[inkfire]

You're right, Shizun, smaller quantities is the way to go. See what happens to people when we put it out.

It's caused some arguments and have left people crying, and not in ways that make sense. I don't like that.

[wooden_one]

Neither do I.

[Emotions being manipulated like that is unsettling and seemed very unfair for those suffering from it.]

Are you getting enough to eat?
