Philosophy of Food | Monday, 4th period

"Welcome back," Hannibal said to the students once they arrived in the Danger Shop. "Today is our last day, and that means our final. Ordinarily we would have been working on this throughout the term, and I would require that you cook it yourself. However, the island's whims being what they are..." He spread his hands.

"So, for your final today, use this room's abilities to help you create a food with special meaning to you. Serve it to the rest of us, and explain it - what makes this food special, what gives it its meaning, what the flavors are, and what setting you would choose for it. Tell us all about it."

Hannibal could appreciate the idea of comfort food, and of convenience, and he was very pleased Prompto was putting real thought into this.

He still wasn't going to eat much of the over-salted monstrosity, but he did appreciate it.

"Thank you," he said with a nod to Prompto. "Good memories are an important reason certain foods stick with us. Memories are very strongly associated with smell, particularly."

Prompto snorted a little bit of a laugh, maybe a little disappointed that Dr. Lecter didn't seem to have even hardly any disapproval over his final pretty much being instant noodles, but, well, he just supposed that only went to prove the transformative and all-encompassing greatness that was Cup Noodles^TM!

"Oh, definitely!" he agreed. "The moment you get that first whiff of the flavor packet rising up on the steam...bam, like, instant good feelings, man."

Aaaaand now Prompto was convinced that, at the first sign of anything awful this week, he was really going to take himself up on that Insomnia retreat because now he just wanted an all-week gaming binge in Noct's apartment.
