[ he gestures at one of the displays full of sweets - there are still some cute little cucumber sandwiches, and a bunch of strawberry macarons out.

the response makes him snort, though. fair. ] Let's both eat one of these. I'd like to test a theory. Pick whatever you like, and I'll eat one, too.

... Oh.

[She frowns, apologetic.]

Sorry, dietary restrictions. I can't eat gluten or sugar. What's your theory, anyway?

[ hahaha - ]

Well, I'm not much of a fan of either myself. [ sugar, especially... gross. ] But everything I've tasted in this room tastes like chocolate. Even things like this.

[ he tilts his teacup towards her, where the tea is a light, clear green color. ] It's not that way with any other food, either - only things in this room, and I slept here last night.

Huh.

[Thoughtfully.]

Well... Last week, the lights in the common room were fucked up but only the people who slept there could see it. And this week, the medbay feels super hot. Could just be yet another example of this place fucking with us.

Hmmm. It wouldn't surprise me, after all the illusions we saw last week.

[ equally thoughtfully, tbh. hand to his chin. ] But, I don't think we can rule anything out, especially not with two people dead.

[ our body count doubled. ]

Completely fair. I guess... we'll find out tomorrow? If we don't screw up again?

[ that gets him to snort. ]

If we don't screw up again. [ god. hopefully. that was a pretty monumental fuck up. ] Did you see anything bizarre last night?
