stop me if you've heard this one before

Who: Anybody, plus some Yakumos
When: Day 121, noon
Where: The public kitchen!
What: Productive members of society and not-so-productive members of society

 [Two Yakumos walk into a public kitchen...

One of them (the sane one with the fluffy fox tails) is working diligently at the stove, cooking up what seems to be a wide variety of fresh ingredients gathered from our new locale - fruits and berries from bushes, some fish from the river, nuts, various kinds of meat and even herbs and flowers. For the most part it seems like she is experimenting with different flavors - everything here is new and a little bit different, after all - but whatever the result, it sure smells delicious, even from the other end of the hall.

The other Yakumo (the crazy one) has a pile of massive bones on the table in front of her, and also a number of what appear to be carving tools. Depending on when you show up, you may find her leaned over, carving delicate items out of bone. Or you may find her looking up, attempting to balance a long, straight bone (perhaps a femur?) on her forehead. ]

Eh? That still wasn't enough?

No one plays fair, even if they say they do.

[peers at

do I detect a hint of bitterness? :)]

Sure they do. Lots of people are willing to play fair as long as the outcome of the game isn't important. If it's a meaningless game anyway, I don't mind playing by the rules. It's fun that way.

[there's bitterness, and also a veneer of acting like it's just a part of the game of life that she's glad to play 8D]

Oh, you must lose quite a lot then.

[oh no i love bitter people they're the cutest

Hm? Aren't you projecting?

[likebigboats]

No dear, I win, and I do because I cheat.

[supraliminally]

That's why I say you're projecting. Not everyone has to cheat to win. Some people are just naturally superior.

[likebigboats]

That hardly seems likely. You probably just ran across the worst of the bunch.

[supraliminally]

And you ran across the best? Poor you. Getting fucked over because you're weak sure is difficult, isn't it.

I didn't care to find out. I wasn't in it for the challenge.

[that's a cute face]

Just trying to keep your head above water, is that it?
