Gabriel Santiago was getting tired, tired of wandering around alone though mostly. When she approached the huge plate of food her stomach grumbled, and even with knowing the potential damage of the food around here, hence her pink outfit, she went in anyways. Inspecting the plate and the bites taken out of them. Not really able to make out who's they were, though she was sure by the already nibbled parts she was sure that she could take a bite without notice.
Picking a piece up out of one she took a bite, the taste she blinked at and wrinkled her nose. It was sickening, it tasted like vomit. Vomit. Pure vomit, shaking with disgust she debated on spitting it out only to slip away into a flashback.
"B-but Mama it's so good." A little Lute bounced at the table and shoved more cake into her mouth. She didn't want to stop eating it. Not yet and Papa had said that if she liked something she should have her fill of it. Shoving more in even at the warnings from her mother Lute nommed happily. Mother was getting worried since she was starting to get a little sweaty from all the sugar but Lute wasn't, she was in heaven.
It wasn't until a pit formed in her stomach like a rock that she blanched. Mama frowned and offered her some water but Lute refused stubbornly. Just one more bite, she just wanted one more bite. Eating the strawberry off the cake was literally the frosting on top. As soon as she swallowed it came back up, as did the seven slices of cake. How could something she loved so much make her feel so icky? Cake...was a lie.
Feeling sick to her stomach she snapped back, wiping the frosting on her fingers off on her pants. Stumbling back from the plate she tripped and a chest opened with the kick of her foot. "Ah!" Blinking to the open chest she wandered around to the front to accept the loot card and two lvls on a half smile. That taste in her mouth still remaining as she hurried to leave the plate and memory behind.

The heat of the day felt unbearable. Everything from the black asphalt to the metal benches around him seemed to absorb every bit of heat and made him feel miserable.
Maybe that was just the purpose of the day.
He had nothing but a packed duffle sitting between his feet and there were only a half a dozen other people sitting around him. He was the only one heading to boot camp. Technically, his recruiter should be taking him, but he needed the extra stretch of time to feel free. He knew he couldn't go through with it if he sat for hours next to a recruiter, feeling like there was no way out.
The bus pulled up with a screech of overused brakes and a cloud of diesel-filled air. Chris waited as long as he could, until he was the last to board, and took the very last seat in the back. He rested his head against the warm glass and watched as the bus slowly pulled away and his city disappeared behind him.
He made it to the leaving city sign before his eyes started to water. He pulled the hood of his jacket and turned into his seat, away from the rest of the passengers.

00zingTea approched a mountain of macaroons she had seen from a ways away. All colors imaginable and all looking tasty. Once she made her way closer to the colossal treats she noticed that they had already been picked at. 00zingTea wasn't one to shirk sweets just because there was already a bite taken out of them. After doing a little choosing rhyme in her head she settled on the minty green one.
The hatter broke off a piece and ate it in one motion. At first the taste was mild, barely even there. Then it exploded, it was salty then sweet and tasted like scareberry gum....
He always used to chew scareberry gum....00zingTea's jaw sort of hung open and she was sure if she was capable of blushing her face would be as bright as the rosey macaroon. She was warm and hungry. It tasted just like his mouth did when they had first kissed. Nothing at first as she sucked in her breath but then salty and finally the aftertaste of scareberry. Her heart fluttered. 00zingTea hadn't even realized she'd finished eating the piece, still staring off into the distance. She felt suddenly empty. She had felt and now it was missing.
She glanced at the mountain again, longing urging her to snatch up another piece, another moment, but the slow burn of heartbreak that had followed later cast a fog over her and she stepped away from the macaroon tower.
00zingTea enjoyed the other desserts a lot better and shakily stalked off to find them. She decided she didn't like macaroons much and that was saying a lot. There weren't many desserts 00zingTea would not eat.

She stared up at the gigantic macarons with brows quirked and features thoughtful. Everything so far that she'd eaten had yielded some form of effects, and there was no reason to think now would be any different. They did look incredibly delicious though, and clearly others had been nibbling on the multicolored treats. She didn't see bodies laying around..
So she tore a chunk off one and gave it a small, experimental nibble.
Which she regretted immediately. It tasted sore, it tasted bitter, it tasted burnt. It was awful.
She couldn't even swallow it, and spit it out before gagging and falling to her knees to lean before the deceiving dessert beside her. Even the aftertaste was disgusting. Like sweat and blood in the air. Defeat. Fear. And under all of it hatred.
Like the hate she'd felt when Evan had bore down on her at the end of their spar and struck out when her shield had been toast. The hate she felt when his blade had torn through her shoulder, through muscle and bone. The seething hate she'd felt when she'd been stitched up and sent on her way, because there were more important things to deal with than her. The hate of feeling useless, of not being able to move her arm for weeks. All of it. She had hated all of it.
But most of all she had hated feeling helpless.
She had hated the fear.
The uncertainty.
Weakness.

Pintsized, but fierce. All reds and blacks with a touch of pink that didn't so much soften the petite figure, as emphasize a physical potential that was only hinted in the narrowed, bright blaze of a single pale, lavender eye. She was a warrior. She was reckless. She was fiery.
Was there a point to eating? No. No there was not. She couldn't taste anything. But still she tore a hunk off the giant confection and bit into it.
And at first it tasted like nothing, as all her food tasted as of late. Then it took on the faint flavor of rainwater on the back of her tongue. Tears...
At a young age the mare had locked her heart away from the world. Only a tiny few had ever been accepted. Bastion, beloved cousin. Thrain, Childhood friend. Anya, adored over sister. But she had turned away. She had taught Nergui what loss felt like. She had made the budding priestess cold and distant, because she never wanted to feel her heart break like that again.
So she had shut everyone out. Walled up her heart. Turned away from everyone that might have befriended her. She did not need them, she had her books. It wasn't until the fall of the isles that she realized how much she had been missing. Lifen had reached out to her. Soren had warmed her heart and allowed her to love again.
It had made her regret all the horsemen she had distanced herself from.
Now? Now it didn't matter.
Now she was right back where she had begun.
Heartbroken.

Small and dark, from ashen skin to jet black coat. The hatter was utterly monochromatic. A tiny hat rested on silver hair at a slant, a veil of lace draped over half her face. Grey corset cinched a narrow waist, dark leggings wrapped equally dark legs and disappeared into shiny black boots. The only spot of color was the eerie golden glow of her right eye. I'm mad, you're mad. We're all mad here.
Walking among the building sized cups and teapots, Jack_Blue was surprised by the amount of food that was here. Even if she transformed she wouldn't be able to make a dent in it (but she was sure the amount of sugar would make a nice dent in her teeth.)
Speaking of sugar, in front of her was a plate filled with large macaroons. The bright colors held no clues as to the taste of each one, but they still looked delicious.
They were too large to pick up, so she stepped up to a bright yellow one, they held no smell either which made it all the harder to figure it out. Her claws dug into the soft texture to pull a large chunk out, then placed it into her mouth.
....It was salty.
It wasn't a bad sort of salty though. It was a very savory kind of taste, the saltiness not overbearing and mixing in well with the rest of the flavor. And if she wasn't dreaming she was sure she could taste a hint of seawater. Probably where the saltiness came from.
As she continued to nibble on the macaroon she felt her mind drift back into the shallow depths of the oceans of halloween, where the light from the pumpkin sun still reached the sandy bottom.

[ Peace ] The trip to the four clans had been a more stressful one then she would like to admit, and there was a real need for her to cool herself off. And as a aquatic beast she took that literally and went to the beaches just off of halloween town. Finding a empty place was a little hard (sunbathing demons and tourist seekers, and of course the usual sea monster residents always swarmed around here), but she found a quiet place a few miles offshore to rest. The waters were calm, and laying on the ocean floor she let mind drift away from the destruction and chaos and just focused on the feeling of water surrounding her.

...What was it with food and water giving her flashbacks?
Shaking her head, she walked away to find something else that would probably trigger another flashback.

Giant creme filled pastry things. There were many and taller than Rex could have imagined. "What Oven could make such wonders?" Each were a different color, a tone that looked surreal, and gave no clue to what could be the flavor inside. A cursory sniff at the treat gave no clue either. It was all to just bite and find out. The piece in the middle was spongy and light textured as he ripped it off with a bit of the creme inside, the softer texture oozing out from the pressure applied to separate that part from the whole. Just to pop the piece in and-
He wasn't sure what it was that he was eating, it was woodsy and earthy. A taste that was raw and simple. Tasted like the dirt was the only thing that could come to mind. It wasn't altogether unplesant, nostalgic. He continued to chew on the pastry and let his mind wander.
"How many Holes are you going to dig, Rex?" the tunnel was not wide, but sound could carry, bouncing from wall to wall to his ears that beckoned to him to come back to the surface. the scuttling of claws and feet that moved through the passage till it hit the open surface, and the rumbles of a collapse happening behind him, clouds of dirt rising with his emergence. The path was made was in shambles, filled in with the pressure of the ground from above, leaving a dent on the surface, sloping curses of grass that was once perfectly sculpted. With only a sheepish look donned on his face as an apology.
Does eating anything in this place have to lead to some type of mind trip, he wondered as the morsel broke into crumbs.

Was everything around here massively huge and food-like? Shad0ws_Suck snorted and rolled his eyes at himself; of course it was: this was the Mad Hatter's Tea Party, wasn't it?
So insanely massive macaroons spread out on a plate, nibbled by countless number of others (ew, by the way - if he hadn't known this was something he was supposed to do he would've been really disgusted) and now wanting him to take a bite.
'Okay Wonderland, I'll bite.'
But he didn't expect it to bite back; flavor like rich, deep pomegranate and the darkest of chocolate, exploded over his tongue. Then came the kick of chili pepper which was extremely odd paired with the pseudo-slimy feeling of the macaroon in his mouth, making it hard to swallow without repeatedly gagging.
Very seldom in his young life had Shad experienced such sensation, the few times he had left indelible marks. Shadowy creatures, skulking through dark chocolate, gleaming eyes with a deep but almost bright slant. Oh, he could remember - how it had felt to be the focus of something so intense applied to him, rather than from him.
Gagging on taste and memory, he stumbled off the plate and onto a small treasure chest.

The macaron was pink, filled with some kind of frothy white cream, and that was why SpringTooth chose it: it looked like it should be sweet and light on his tongue, and the way his day had been going, he filled his mouth with one huge bite.
__________________
He regrets choice as it lands on his tongue. Instead of strawberries and raspberries, it comes with the tangy, metallic taste of blood, and for just a moment, he is worried that he has bit his tongue. But no, not this time. This is just the taste of hatred.
And with the flavor comes a memory: standing in the courtyard with his lip tender and split, blood in his mouth and the sleeve of his shirt torn, staring up at a boy at least eight inches taller than him. The other young man grins down at him, and his expression is challenging, questioning.
"I dare you," he says, and all Harrow can do is lick away the blood, clench his jaw, and quietly hate the lot of them as they leave, laughing.

Ooooh, yes, how delightful, a veritable feast of treats, and no one around but AllUrLoots to...appreciate them. Well, her and whoever had taken all of these little bites out of them, but no matter--they were hers now. Her fingers hovered over each of them, wiggling in anticipation, before snatching up a luridly red macaron. The admiration she expressed towards its beauty and craftsmanship lasted only as long as it took to get it from the plate to her mouth.
AllUrLoots took a bite and almost spat it right back out. The pastry seemed hot, somehow, not quite spicy, but certainly sharp. Small things crunched between her teeth as she chewed on it, releasing bursts of tangy, almost overwhelming flavor.
It reminded her, somehow, of her younger days, back when she was hardly so graceful and composed as she believed herself to be now. She was constantly bumping into things as if they had had targets painted right on them, causing the breakage of many an irreplaceable object. It hadn't helped that she had preferred to run around in her equine form, even--especially--in the house.
It was almost a relief to swallow the macaron, even though it left stinging trails down her throat. AllUrLoots hastily put the confection back, wondering why a delicious cake couldn't just be a delicious cake--and resolving to come back for seconds later.

Rex was perfectly happy that there were other desserts to sample and went for one that was visually appealing. Pink could do no wrong in his eyes as he pulled off a portion and began to chew.
Pink did not lead to sweet, it led to savory, which was different.
The taste was reminiscent of the treats that would be given to Regal when the scruffle pleased him on a good deed. It was salty and meaty and reminded him of whenever the minipet would wag its tail when they were given. A box of the treats was an elation, as the pet ran around in circles before sitting in contempt at his feet and begged for the first one in the box.
… he was not sure why he was panting after finishing the pastry and why he wanted to whine sadly and ask for more.
The treats were becoming scary and before if became an addiction, Rex was going to back out, and trip over his own feet, wobbling in the air and find a chest. he Secretly hoped it was smaller version of the cakes. just to take along to share with others.
yep, others.

Q had been craving something sweet since the game started. Alcohol was all well and good for an underaged ghoul, but nothing hit the spot better than dessert. Macaroons weren't her typical pick for it, but beggars couldn't be choosers, she supposed.
They were all pretty nondescript and piled together, so she plucked a random piece up to try out. Cool mint flavors coated her mouth very quickly like a brush with cold air, delightfully tingly and sweet. It reminded her--
She's always wanted to learn how to make eyescream, and there was no better time to ask about it than when her parents were out. Grandpa's favorite was mint, however, which she wasn't pleased about: Piper had been hoping for something more, say, chocolatey. With fudge pieces. This would taste like medicine, ewwwwww.
They compromised and discovered mint chocolate chip for themselves. It was a good, messy, cold as hell day, made better by the disapproving looks dear Grandpa got when her parents returned to see their little daughter plump, eye-scream-covered, and giggling.
This place really had a thing for memories, huh. Q was starting to feel a little wary about that. It was just for viewing at the moment, but what if they asked for more? What if one event would lead to actually . . . Nah. Don't think about it.
She nibbled the rest of the macaroon with a thoughtful frown and hightailed it out before she could be reeled in for more.

Byakko stared up at the macaroons with a curious tilt of his head. After everything else he had seen so far they weren't a surprise in the least. No, the reason why he was staring was because he couldn't decide which one he wanted to try. Finally he closed his eyes and pointed at a random one. He walked over to it then took a small handful of the macaroon and took a bite. The taste was sort of sweet and yet had a spicy after taste which was surprisingly good. He didn't have a lot of time to dwell on it though as he was soon cast into a memory.
~He curled between the two, their bodies flush against his own, content to just lay there. Anyone walking in on the three teenagers that were stripped down to their underwear would have thought something was going on between them when really while intimate, there was nothing sexual about it. If asked, he would have said that Ash and Kai were his best friends and while attractive, he couldn't bring himself to be interested in them that way. He shifted a bit and pressed back against Kai's chest while pulling Ash closer to his own with a soft sigh. Really, there wasn't a lot of things he would rather do then be in a cuddly pile with good friends.~
Byakko gave a bittersweet smile when the memory faded. He missed those two quite a bit. He shook his head and pushed thoughts of them away to focus on collecting the loot that showed up.
