finer food, but no music

[Well that was...unpleasant, to say the least. Two more deaths, but this time there's the matter of whatever's happening to Seteth as well.

Ignis is trying not to think about it, which means he's thinking about it a lot, which means he spends a few moments pacing and trying to figure out what to do. He thinks back to the party - for as much as you could call it that - that Olivert hosted, and, well... He's not sure how much morale can be boosted, but it's worth a shot, isn't it?

The decorations of the opera house are much simpler this time around, but the food is noticeably better, between the actual operational kitchen and the fact Ignis is much more skilled than Olivert. The food is well made and it even looks delicious from where it's set up, and there's a sign outside the opera house that reads:]


A not as grand feast, for all of us to enjoy.
Attendance is not mandatory, but it might be better than staying alone.

Catered by Ignis Scientia.


[At least there are less rose petals this time.]

[ah, this guy... well. No reason to bear too much of a grudge for being insulted, he guesses, even if he never really knows what to do with mildly unpleasant nihilists.]

I wish it was easier to hide, but it could indeed be worse. I suppose that comes if I keep volunteering.

[ugh, what a pain that would be...]

[If he's only a mildly unpleasant nihilist, he's losing his touch.

The true woes of being nerfed. He wouldn't have blinked at being talked back to or brushed off, but since the man(...??) appears to still have his vocal cords and moreover to be in a talking sort of mood, he might indulge his own curiosity. All attempts to interact with their fellow citizens(...????) so far have resulted in failure.

So this is close enough.]

If you keep volunteering -- therefore, you are satisfied with your results this time?

[He's getting something of a judging glance again, though this one is more... just a little disbelieving. What kind of gluttony for punishment is this.]

I'm not sure if I'd say I'm satisfied, but it's nothing I can't handle. I can do it again if necessary, even if I would prefer not to.

[He sighs and crosses his arms.]

As I mentioned, I am not human to begin with. It's easier for me to deal with something like this than many other people here.
