To be frank, yes. Yes I was.

@Magnanimity

I didn't realize we left that bad of a first impression.
*Steps into the dining hall, centered with a single table spanning the length of the room, and smaller round tables scattered around it*
This is where you can eat if you want to.

You know, it's a good sign that you at least have butter.

@Magnanimity

*Heads out from the main kitchen to a connecting hallway with branches in several directions*
Were you worried we wouldn't?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

We'll work on it.

@Magnanimity

Fairy Blue likes to cook with a lot of butter. Just to warn your cholesterol.
*Walks through the kitchen and points out each ingredient's storage location and the set of tools*

Well, do you guys have chicken? If I say "burgers", is that a thing you have up here?

@Magnanimity

Yeah, not something that's usually on the menu, but that's doable.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

No. Didn't used to, anyway.

@Magnanimity

That makes things simple. Any favorites or tastes you don't like?

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I dunno. Waterproofing a teleportation device just sounds like the equivalent of adding salt to a Wagyu steak. A drop in the barrel.

@Magnanimity

We also don’t sell them, so that could have something to do with it.
*Steps out onto another floor with an open passage to a large industrial kitchen*
This is where we make food. Do you have any allergies?

It’s not absolutely universal but it’s pretty widely applied. And I’d call home primitive compared to what I’ve seen.

@Magnanimity

Maybe the R&D costs more compared to a product you’re selling.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*Scratches my head*
All the marvels of technology that we’d be thousands of years behind on back home just all over the place out here but waterproofing isn’t a universal thing at this point? The world is so backwards. I’d still keep it on me.

@Magnanimity

Does your home waterproof everything?
*Ducks back into the stairwell*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Why wouldn’t you?

@Magnanimity

Because I thought it through. It’s not waterproof, and what would I do if I accidentally left it in my pocket? The obvious answer is to leave it on my desk until I know I need it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Teleportation stick.

@Magnanimity

*Wags my finger*
Ah, you thought you had me there. I don’t carry that thing around with me all the time.
