You are my Sunshine

[empress_without_a_throne]

[The battle with the Great Black Void was over... and it had brought with it surprising revelations.  First... Mizuki's little brother had gotten all grown up, and Zankuro was trying now to desperately console his parents and tell them he still wanted to be treated like a little kid and go to kindergarten.  But Mizuki is in the infirmary, bandaged up and with a tiny little mechanical blackbird sitting on her shoulder.  With the DuskBird so thoroughly destroyed, all she could do was try to grow a new one.  But standing in a little balcony outside and looking at the Sun, she was noticing something, or rather something's absence.]

-It doesn't hurt.  The sunlight doesn't...

Quick, someone get me something to eat!  Anything... just... just what normal people would have!

[And one bite of a burger later though and Mizuki's already spitting it out.]



That's disgusting!  How can anyone eat something like that?!?

[But at the same time, no vomiting.  Seems the Abyss's victory over the Void has had an unexpected payoff.]

But...this is the best burger on the base.

[empress_without_a_throne]

Then you need better burgers!

All this time I thought I was missing out on Earth cooking but if it's going to be like that...

[a_linear_mind]

Everyone else enjoys it...I think it's pretty good...

[A sigh]

Luckily I brought some backup in case this happened.

[And That Other Thing presents a hastily boxed Sushi platter without anything from the deep sea.]

[empress_without_a_throne]

Backup?

[Mizuki's eyes lit up though as the platter comes into view, and she already is popping one in her mouth... only for all the relief and appreciation to melt away in her face to betrayal as Mizuki spits that out too.]



This isn't deep sea sushi at all!

[a_linear_mind]

I know! I thought that was the point...

[There's a weird expression on Willis' face. A strange mix of amusement and pity. Even he's not sure what face to make in this situation.]

[empress_without_a_throne]

What kind of "point" is there to giving me food like this?

[And she's just gonna forcefully put it back in Willis's lap.]

After everything I just went through the least I'd like to get is something that doesn't taste horrible.
