Sooooo, guys, girls, others. What's the grossest thing you've ever eaten?

[Don't mistake this for her not being concerned about Caedra, and not being concerned about generally everything, but a recent conversation and a recent find has piqued her curiosity enough to ask the question.

For her own answer, she holds up a small, white, chalky-looking cube.]

This one's mine. It's called 'carbtien', and it's basically what we live on back home, because we can't grow enough food for everyone. It's military rations, and I don't know what they put in it, but it doesn't taste of anything and when you try to swallow it, it's like your brain forgets how swallowing works.

[Julie snorts softly and drops the cube down out of sight.]

I found a big bag of them just lying around a couple of weeks ago. Weird, right? I guess I'll keep it safe for if we ever end up starving or something. You might not thank me, though.

... Okay, I gotta ask.

[She feels like she may regret asking, but she has to.]

Why were you eating a rock in the first place?

Like I said the rock was evil and tries to corrupt people, so I figured I'd try to keep it in a safe spot. I also had a magical fork that turns anything it touches into food and I had just gotten that and I wanted to put it to good use.

Eating the rock wasn't one of my finest moments, but I guess it did get the job done til we got back to the base.

Your safest spot was eating the evil rock? [It's kind of clever, yet at the same time, why?]

Did you know it was evil when you ate it?
