welcome mingle

( AND SO IT BEGINS. )



There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.

When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably.

The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble.

Well - that, and all the people who seem to have woken up alongside you, lost and also probably Doing Their Best™.

There's no need to fret that much though. It's hard to say exactly where you're going next, even though some places might feel a little bit more like a clue, but what you do know is one unshakeable thing:

There's still much more ahead of you.

Oh— are they?! Wonderful! I love spice.

[BOY DOES HE and he immediately grabs a fuckin handful like a demon, though it's mostly to look them over more carefully. They really do look like... little weird mutant carrots.

After a second of consideration, he shoves a few into his mouth. The texture seems to surprise him as he bites down.]


—They're crunchy? But light...! I've never had anything like this before!

[If they're spicy, though, he sure shows zero signs of reaction.]

Maybe don't—

[Eat more than a few at a time, he's about to say, but when he doesn't show any signs of Spicy Food Pain:]

...Dude. How are you doing that? Were you born without taste buds?

[He's so strong!!]
givethemhell: (reborn)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2019-12-07 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Of course I have tastebuds! It would be too sad if I didn't. Imagine all of the good food and alcohol I'd be missing out on, haha.

[HE SAYS AS HE STUFFS A FEW MORE INTO HIS STUPID FACE. He's the worst kind of gremlin, one covered in cheeto dust.]

I guess I'm just used to spicier foods?

[personal profile] counterclocked 2019-12-07 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
I've never had them, but... I've heard they're supposed to be really intense.

[Come to think of it, though! He reaches towards the bag, pulling a few out. Words spoken seconds before disaster!!]

I guess they aren't as bad as I thought.
givethemhell: (hello welcome home)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2019-12-07 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
[He thinks very briefly of warning this poor fool that people in Yunmeng all have insanely high spice tolerance and that even among them, he's considered unusual...

But nah.]


They're not! Very salty, though. I'm not sure what the flavor is supposed to be, either... Just "spice"?

[He's still eating them though??]
counterclocked: (pic#13619926)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2019-12-07 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
They're cheese flavored. Well, the normal kind, at least.

[He'd ordinarily say more, but he's a trusting fool, which is why he's immediately popping a few into his mouth and

starting to cough almost immediately. Between wheezes:]


They're not spicy?!
givethemhell: (that's what he said)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2019-12-07 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
[(santa ana winds voice) you might say don't do it wind, leave this poor Hunter alone.]

Ah— Oh, dear. Hold on! [REACHES OVER TO WHAP HIS BACK A FEW TIMES with his cheeto dusty fingers...]

Are you going to be alright there? Should I go get you some water?

[personal profile] counterclocked 2019-12-07 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
[He shakes his head, blinking a few times as he clears his throat again, taking a breath.]

N-No, I'm okay. I just wasn't expecting... They really didn't seem spicy to you at all?

[He has Trust, mostly because it seems hard to fake that kind of reaction. Or non-reaction, as it were.]
givethemhell: (watson)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2019-12-07 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
[HIS TRUST IS NOT MISPLACED, AT LEAST. In this particular case... Wei Wuxian is being totally truthful when he shakes his head.]

Not at all, nope! Granted, I haven't run into any spicy dish that's managed to best me yet, so maybe my judgment was a little off...

[Spice and alcohol! Two terrible tolerances to have, but perfect for a gremlin!]
counterclocked: (pic#13619935)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2019-12-07 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
You must have a crazy tolerance.

[He's rubbing his hands together for a moment to rid them of spicy cheeto dust, and then:]

Anyways... Better than carrots?
givethemhell: (labor on that midnight wire)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2019-12-07 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, maybe!

[He does and he knows it, god, what a shit. He's still munching on these cheetos though, so that's probably a good enough answer?!]

Hm... They're a pretty close tie, actually! I'd say they would win, but there are some dishes with carrots that are really hard to beat.

You do seem more like a Cheez-It kind of guy...

[What is he basing that on? A mystery.]
givethemhell: (have you heard?)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2019-12-07 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
What's a Cheez-It? Are those spicy?

[Can't believe Hunter will be the last person to know him before he's killed by all the junk food he decides to consume en masse today.]
