[ Soon after LILITH hands the decision to Outsiders, Ratio makes a post on the ocular network. ]

I hope you have all had ample time to rest from the aftermath of the kaiju's attack. However, it is time to turn our attention to the future. We have been given an opportunity to decide our next step.

1: Stay in Seoul and assist the city.

Should you break this rule, I will revoke your comment permissions.

Keep in mind that your choice will have a grave effect on the people of this planet. It is not one to be made lightly, so do not treat it with levity.

You may use the form below to keep your comment clear and easy to read.

I would like to see the babies. I bet they’re so, so cute.

And easier to cook, because their scales are easier to penetrate when they are hatchlings.

_{[ he’s gone too far long without monster meals, marcy………… he’s delirious ]}

[picky]

[ DOWN, BOY ]

Of course you're thinking about eating them...
We have more important things to worry about than how they taste!
Besides, I don't know if LILITH would want these as specimens or not, so we may not even be able to eat them

[vorous]

What they don’t know won’t hurt them. Besides, there won’t be any evidence left behind. How are they going to know?

_{[ Laios doesn’t know how anything works here, or the possibility that maybe his messages are tracked. ]}

[picky]

We can't really pull a fast one on LILITH, Laios...
They could probably check on what we did through the implants they gave us

[vorous]

What?! Seriously?! They’re going to bring a monster chef here, where there are monsters, and then expect him not to cook them? What else am I supposed to do then? Just kill them and leave the resources? That’s such a waste of monster!

[picky]

Hold on! Unfortunately they've served Kaiju here before
There used to be someone here who would cook it too...

[ rip kaito... ]

We just have to see what LILITH wants us to do first.

[vorous]

I guess.. but.. what else would they do with it? All that meat? There was a food shortage when I first got here and I cooked those big coconut crabs and mutated fish. I figured that would be the protocol with the monsters here too.

Just think how much money we saved eating them back at the dungeon.

[picky]

It's not like we really had a choice back then...

[ Even if almost all of it was tasty. ]

I don't know about protocol, but just because we have monster meat doesn't mean we should eat all of it, right?
What if after they're done testing, they find out it's unsafe to eat?
I'm guessing they wouldn't have let us eat the coconut crabs and things unless they knew it wouldn't make us sick
That doesn't mean the dragon meat might be the same way!

[vorous]

Are you saying.. what I think you're saying?

_{[ please... say it ain't so... he had conditioned you so far... only for her to revert back to this??? ]}

[picky]

I know what you're thinking! Listen!
This isn't like a dungeon! We're up against things we've never seen before
Plus, if you end up getting seriously sick or dying here, I can't revive you!

[gimu]

tell me your meal plan

[vorous]

_{[ Immediately: ]}

They would will probably be the perfect size for skewering. Skin them and skewer them with vegetables and add seasoning and peanut sauce... a satay. Alternatively, if we wanted to chop them up, you could make them the main ingredient in a fried rice.

[gimu]

i see. i shall figure out what a satay is.

in the meanwhile, consider an unagi-don style dish over freshly steamed rice.

[vorous]

Is that a favorite of yours, Choso?

[gimu]

i enjoy how it melts in the mouth and the sweet savoury taste. perfect on a bed of well-made rice.

[vorous]

_{[ you’re speaking his language.. ]}

I will make it for you sometime, Choso. You deserve to have your favorite meal.

[gimu]

oh. have i done something reward-worthy?

[vorous]

You have been nothing but kind to me, so I would like to cook for you sometime.

That’s good enough for me.

_{[ especially when people have always been mean to him and his sister.. that is, until they started dungeon crawling.. ]}

1/2

[gimu]

[ ah… ]

really?

[gimu]

ok
that’s fine
i’d like to taste what you make
thank you

[ kind! he’s been kind!! and someone has felt it!!! is this the human condition!? ]

[picky]

Not you too...

[gimu]

food is food

and i want to taste a dragon

[picky]

If it's anything like the dragon from home, it's really tough and doesn't taste like beef or pork, like you would think
It reminded me of something I ate before that tasted like mushrooms

[gimu]

mushrooms is surprising. i would expect something like that to be more eel-like.

was your dragon delicious despite this?

[picky]

[ two minute pause ]

Yes....
But that's because Laios and I had a really good chef with us!
One of his life's goals was to cook and eat this dragon meat
