[Adragis]

"How?"

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"To me, at least? It means that, in your own way, you're acknowledging that they're there and maybe, just maybe, they don't want to see someone act like a rabid animal."

[Adragis]

"But I'm not! I'm using a fork!"

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"Mhm. You know what else you're doing? Tearing into the food as though you haven't eaten in a week. Trust me, I know what that looks like."

[Adragis]

"And what's wrong with that?"

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"I'm sorry, do you not remember my talk of rabid animals, and your resemblance to them?"

[Adragis]

"And, as I said, I'm using a fork!" Larissa bites off some more sausage as if to make the point.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"And I could get a monkey to hold a fork but that doesn't somehow make them civilised, does it?"

[Adragis]

"Yeah, but my real question is, why do we have all these rules?"

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"Culture, traditions... There are many factors to consider, and I doubt you want to hear all of them. I don't really care about a lot of these rules, either... The ones that are currently most important are 'slow down, the food isn't going to run away' and 'use a knife, for god's sake'."

[Adragis]

"Why do I need to use a knife if I can just use my teeth?"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Souji has already climbed off the table, having seen Tessa approach.

Yukari frowns.
"Just neat and wastes less food."

[Adragis]

"I'm not wasting any food! Using a knife to cut pieces off probably wastes even more!"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"Not if the alternative is getting food everywhere..."

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"Also, I refer to my 'rabid animal' analogy."
