Nuni eats what I can only describe as "candied butterfly wings". FYI.

...what? XD

Is that like a mealworm lollipop?

Bob is intrigued.

Ew, mealworm lollipop? We just fry them and flavour them like chips, here. Now, scorpion lollipops we have --

No, these are the colourful iridescent wings of some butterfly-like insect, candied so they look like they're frosted with tiny diamonds. They're sweet and crunchy and oddly spicy. I get the impression it's not a treat native to his world, but rather something Shotakari trade for, a delicacy. Sometimes he gets a small box of them in care packages.

They kinda freak his first post-Academy roomie out. I'm thinking of writing a story about the guy feeling bad for judging Gary (Nuni's Academy roomie, you will recall~) for looking so longsuffering about his alien roomie.

Especially once they have the "this is my eyeball box" talk.

AHAHAHA eyeball box. I remember you telling me about that. X3

Now I imagine these things tasting like strawberry balls. And have a craving for said strawberry balls. I love them, but my tolerance for spicy is nil, so I always end up burning my taste buds off. :/

Man, I logged that! That was pure synergistic brilliance! :D

*looks down at her strawberry popsicle she just started eating and wonders how you did that* ...I've never had these strawberry balls you speak of, though.

Mind powers, mah ely.

Strawberry balls are candy. They're like... strawberry gummies, with a much coarser consistency than gummy worms, and the outer coating has chili powder mixed in. They're very, very good. :9

*gravely* Wakarimasu~

Wow, that... actually sounds kind of interesting!

*pictures Sulu and Uhura trying to get Chekov to eat these*

But no, Nuni's snack is not that spicy.

EYEBALLS!

Maybe I will send you some the next time I get a baggie. :9

I would totally love to see Nuni trying to get Gary to eat Shotakari food and, conversely, Gary trying to get Nuni to eat (lactose free, I'd imagine) pizza.

You realize that Nuni has probably pimped out his eyeball box, right?

[eliyes.livejournal.com]

Maybe I will check at Freak Lunchbox for them. :3

It wouldn't work; he can't eat the crust, either. Nuni brings his tricorder to every meal, in the Academy. You'd be amazed where wheat gets to.

I have a book where Captain Christopher Pike eats pizza with a Klingon. XD

Oh lord. XD

[kiffie.livejournal.com]

Hey, man, it's the future! Maybe they have soy-based pizza crusts. v(._.)v

Which book is this?

Re: Oh lord. XD

Huh. He might be able to go with that. He can eat legumes.



He also surfs space whales that shoot LAZOR BEEMS and wrestles giant spacewhale-eating tentacle monsters. This book is the CRACK! XD
