romance and murder go so well together

[capyper]

[ If the colorful posters from Tuesday weren't enough, Yato has redoubled his efforts for today and slapped these up all over the place:



We are admittedly not entirely sure what the heck the catgirl is there for, but she's there. Anyway, in the dining hall this evening, Aqua and Yato have set things up for a group dinner!! All the food is being put on one table; the rest of the room is for mingling and is colorfully decorated in a way that suggests that Yato went wild in the art room at some point and decided what we all really need in our lives is more color and more glitter!!

There's also this piece of paper with everybody's names on it in pairs, and sets of questions (red tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet). That's right, your mystery game is speed-dating and Yato is here to be your cupid for the evening!! ]

The dinosaurs.

[no really what about the dinosaurs, why are dinosaurs involved here]

[goodforsomething]

Little plastic ones. She puts 'em in ice cubes.

[ratingspoint]

...Oh my god. That's absolutely precious.

[goodforsomething]

Yeah, it really is.

It's also a heart attack in a pitcher, but that's kids for ya!

[ratingspoint]

...For what it's worth, the magic that's usually in starfaits would probably counter the heart attack problem.

[goodforsomething]

You put magic in food?

[ratingspoint]

All our food is made of magic, actually! It's a lot more efficient that way - it just converts to energy right inside your body, there's no need to process it or anything. It'll also heal minor injuries right up! ...And it doesn't spoil, ever.

Believe me, magic is sooo much better than whatever humans think they're doing with their food.

[goodforsomething]

...so what, ya don't poop?

[ratingspoint]

[Stan, you can't just ask somebody- ]

Of course not.

[...well, okay then.]

[goodforsomething]

Eh, I guess you wouldn't anyway. You're a robot.

[Why are we doing this]

[ratingspoint]

[Because we're classy people having a classy discussion, that's why.]

That too! There's no point in building in a function like that anyway, even if eating were necessary.

[goodforsomething]

Do you eat the magic food back home?

[ratingspoint]

Well...I can? But I don't have to.

[goodforsomething]

...so what would happen if you ate one of these?

[ratingspoint]

[...Huh.]

It probably wouldn't be too great for whatever mechanisms I'm running on, I guess?

[...HELL IF HE KNOWS, TBH.]

[goodforsomething]

Seems like a shame to miss out!

But yeah, guess no one here knows the first thing about fixin' you up. I can do cars okay, but that's about it.

[ratingspoint]

Don't worry too much about it, if something happens. I can be repaired by someone who knows how once everyone gets out of here, after all.

[goodforsomething]

Yeah. Really ain't fair to have you here at all.

[What's death mean, to a robot?]

[ratingspoint]

[Ahahahaha. Ha.]

Well, it's not like I had any say in the matter.

[goodforsomething]

I'll add it to the list of complaints.

[It's a long and ever-growing list.]
