Hello, everyone! As you've probably noticed, we've been having a few problems - I mentioned earlier that something got knocked out of balance, and we had to recalibrate, but in a few days we should be able to drop the emergency measures. Please be aware that there is an incoming storm, class four. General orders for that kind of thing are to report to management for any known threats and follow instructions, but so far what's known is "that might be a little annoying" and "hope it isn't". Theoretically it'll probably be related to the holiday, I think, because a large group of souls focused through the needle of a pin on one thing can sort of shape a thing around them. That's sort of a really inaccurate way to put it on the technical side of things, but I think it's the easiest way to understand it! At any rate, we'll know more once we're in the thick of things. Please take care as usual; resources aren't exactly what some of you seem to think they are, and we had to expend rather more than usual in the past month or so to keep things with a few of you steady.

i'd sell my soul for a donut
a discount is way better, since that just means i eat more for less

and i'll totally bring him along!
he'd totally love how spicy your food is
i swear he'd eat food that was practically on fire if he could

It also means that you are not just selling yourself for one donut, either. In the end, it is more bang for your soul, as it were.

Should I be worried for my food supply, I wonder?

All the same, he may enjoy the challenge that I have.
It will allow you both to enjoy yourselves even more.
The challenge is to eat the spiciest of mapo tofu I have in my shop under an hour.
If you win, you win five-hundred dollars and allowed on the Hall of Fame.
If you lose, you pay fifty dollars.
Though, please comprehend the level of difference in prize and pay-in to participate.

It may end up with you being unable to taste anything for a few days, and not due to this app.

yeah, so like i said: feel free to trick me all you want!

and you might.
though i guess we'll be nice and just become frequent customers instead of eating you out of house and home in one night

i think he might.
i'll definitely egg him on to do so
that sounds right about his preferred level of spice to be honest
and he'll find the lack of taste worth it in the end

I appreciate it, Bolin.

I look forward to his attempt, then.
I hope to make an experience that is enjoyable.
The one that I have come to encounter here is confusing, and for a lot of people... frightening.
As an adult, I am obligated to look after others yet I am only a restaurant shop owner.
I can offer no insight to this world, because I am just entering it.
So all I can give is comfort, and I hope you two find it enough in these turbulent times.
