[There is a young boy, no older than nine or ten with dark hair and a scar running over the bridge of his nose sitting at an empty table. Before him are plates of varying foods and it all looks very delicious. In Alma's hands is a giant bottle of mayonnaise, ready to be dealt upon the poor food.

He stares down at the plates of food, standing on the chair, with a hungry and excited look in his eyes. His first target? Is a slice of cheesecake that looks fine and dandy without anything else added to it. Not that Alma seems to care. On goes the mayo~!]


[ooc; OHGAWSH i'm sorry this intro post took so late! I went on hiatus for a bit, but I'm back now~ Alma's been around for a little bit before this post so feel free to have noticed this small boy wandering around? He has a terrible love for mayo, as disgusting as it may seem.]

Oh? What happened to you? [He tilts his head some before putting down the mayo and picking up a fork.] I'm sure I can!

Would you like to try?

Nothing but repeated exposure to something and the eventual acceptance of its useful properties. It wasn't particularly interesting.

[she smiles a little and holds up her apple] That's extremely kind of you, but I'm laden with my own bounty from the cafeteria line.

[doyuulikeme.livejournal.com]

Oh... That's unfortunate! [Shrugs and smiles back.]

Is that all you eat? What kind of other foods do you like? Is that all they gave you? [Twenty questions go.]

[bookshrew.livejournal.com]

This is all I eat when I'm not feeling particularly ravenous, I enjoy foods that are simple but aesthetically pleasing, and this is all that I decided to take for the moment. Anything else? [more amused than bothered by it]

[doyuulikeme.livejournal.com]

What do you mean by aesthetically pleasing? [He's of the curious type.]

[bookshrew.livejournal.com]

I like my meals to appeal to the eye as well as the tongue. Presentation can make or break a dish sometimes.

[doyuulikeme.livejournal.com]

... Oh. [Looks down at his gloppy dish.] I guess this wouldn't count as aesthetically pleasing, huh?

[bookshrew.livejournal.com]

Not particularly. [she raises an eyebrow teasingly] In fact it might make a master chef weep tears of blood upon seeing it.

[doyuulikeme.livejournal.com]

O-Oh... [D8] That's not... good. Are there any around here? I don't want them to see!

[bookshrew.livejournal.com]

I can't say that I've seen any in the time I've spent here, but it's difficult to tell if there aren't any milling about in disguise. It would be best to consume the offending dish quickly and make a sincere oath to improve in the future.

Okay! [If you can believe it he'll start to eat it without gagging once. Yum yum.

He stops in between bites and swallows.] Oh, I'm Alma!

[bookshrew.livejournal.com]

[well, it is physically possible to muscle past the gag reflex...]

Rose Lalonde. It's a pleasure.
