[recollecters]

Hello and happy new year! A lot of poll results came in from R&D and we've almost fixed taste all the way. Horses are almost fixed, too. We've been working pretty much non-stop around the holidays to stabilize everything, so I hope this works! Just so you guys know, while we were working on fixing the original problems we received some alerts of residual effects outside of our usual domain. Don't worry though! Remember what I said a while ago? We're still moving more resources around into better defenses to protect the city from huge storms like last summer. We'll be taking care of that really soon and isolating the unknown problem. I wish I could tell you more, but we're all working overtime here to finish the final stages of a big project. No matter what happens you guys should be safe while we finish up, so just stay calm, okay? Don't get too reckless! Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated As of this post taste tier 4 has been icly regained; tier 5 will go into effect on Saturday, January 6th at 9pm EST and taste will be fully restored!

(( from here ))

Hmm
In that case, why not add a bunch of ginger and white pepper, too?

[explodosafe]

See? You DO have some ideas!

Some damn tasty ones, by the sound of it to boot! Anything else you'd add? How about spices?

[floret]

Probably garlic and onion, right? Would cumin taste weird with it?

[explodosafe]

I dunno, would it? Comun is some sort of pepper, right?

[Kirishima... ]

Are you a cook or something, by the way?

[floret]

Umm
I don't know, actually.
It's a spice, so I guess it must come from some kind of plant, right?

Not really. I can make a few simple things and follow a recipe, but that's about as far as it goes.

[explodosafe]

Well, they can't be coming from rocks if they're spices! So I'd say you're right!

Sounds about my level of expertise then. Don't worry, I won't judge you for anything cooking-related unless you you have no clue about it and yet still set your designer kitchen on fire trying to prepare quails! ^^b

[floret]

Unless they're salt!

That's a very specific circumstance . . .

[explodosafe]

Don't be salty.

I didn't go and name and names~!

[floret]

I think I'm more umami.

But did you want to?

[explodosafe]

Huh. In that case I might like to take a bite out of you~

Ever been smooched by a shark before?

No comment ;)

[floret]

lol! I met a few on field trips to the aquarium as a kid, but smooching was heavily discouraged.

[explodosafe]

No wonder. I don't think they have a tongue they could use and they'd have to hold their breath if they wanted to come out of water.

I'm all ready to bite, tho!

[floret]

I don't really know how to respond to that . . .

[explodosafe]

I wouldn't either if I were you, to be honest.

For the record, I don't really have shark teeth. They're more like tiger meets dragon meets piranha.

[floret]

Really? What are dragon and piranha teeth like? And how does your dentist feel about it?
