who stole your heart and the key?

[steelmyself]

In the dark, you taste something sweet and tart on your tongue, almost like apple but not quite: pomegranate juice, out of nowhere. A hint of something metallic accompanies it.

You fall down.

There's a pause. When the puppet speaks again, its voice is more monotonous once more. "You have a quest you're on, don't you? A journey...you can't take the time out to eat an entire feast."

Ah, but -

[This is fun. Sitting in a real (fake, real-looking, whatever) house eating a meal is fun. She missed this.]

I suppose that's true... ah, but if that's the case, won't you make me a snack to eat during my travels?

"...all right."

The puppet doesn't take much convincing before it gets up and heads into the kitchen again. A few minutes later, it returns with a paper bag, which it sets neatly down in front of Elaine. The bag is full of riceballs.

[Peeking into the bag -]

... It's more rice. You certainly seem to enjoy rice, Haku. Is that true for the you outside of this place as well?

Re: THE HOUSE

It speaks blandly. "It's a useful foodstuff. I could have made you omusoba instead, though."

Re: THE HOUSE

Omelette soba? Soba is a type of noodle - is that correct?

[Wait a second.]

I suppose that I should be leaving. Please tell me more about this omelette rice in the future.

Re: THE HOUSE

[steelmyself]

"That's correct." It pauses. "Please move on and stay safe here in Hell, Elaine."

Re: THE HOUSE

[unaffective]

If you make me this omusoba later, then I'll be certain to stay safe!

[Well. She's leaving anyway though. She waves and makes for the door.]
