    Nobody better make the inane and predictable Portal joke.

      I fail to see how "this is the part where he kills you" is relevant to the present situation.~

        Cake, however, is relevant. And whenever it is, someone makes the far-overplayed "cake is a lie" joke, which stopped being funny a few years ago.

          Heh... Had to do it...moral imperative.


          Having said this, the fact that the cake's out of this world- Chekov's Gun, it is... As you said, it's very relevant.

      Sometimes you have to sacrifice your Companion Cake. It is all for the best.

        Now you are thinking with Portal jokes!

          The cake's a LIE, I tell you- A LIE!

    The guests have been trapped in the dining hall all this time until they all give the hotel good reviews? Who is the jerk that keeps giving the bad vote?

      The jerk who keeps getting the good food!

      I don't know if that's the problem. Once you summoned the Deadly, I think it went quite off the rails for them all.

    Ate it in one bite?

    A mouthful for a mouthful; that's a fair trade, I think!

  • Happyroach 13 years ago archived

    So...is there a recipe for these brownies?

    • Kate A 13 years ago archived

      Gonna do a few recipe cards as filler after this chapter ends :)

      • svartalf 13 years ago archived

        Looking forward to it Kate. They sound like they're awesome.

    Did they even have chocolate as we know it in the 1830's? If so, Nora's taste buds are in for an anachronistic treat...
