Plates.
Some taste good. Some taste bad.
All of them have their own unique flavor.
Yes, even the earthenware bowls.
However my favorite kind of plate is the rare Chinese porcelain ones that Hotohori seems to have an endless supply of.
Is it any wonder that I got hooked on them?
It shouldn’t be.
What, with the outer designs on the rims of the plates that are kind of sweet and the inner plate that manages to somehow be both spicy and slightly sour…….Ah, heaven!
Really it is.
What?
You think I’m crazy?
Now there’s a stupid idea.
Everyone knows I’m not crazy…………even though I did let birds nest in my hair before.
That was an experiment I’m telling you! An experiment! It didn’t help that Nuriko was the one that found out, he can’t keep his mouth shut about anything.
Anyways……
How did I get started on eating plates?
That’s an easy one to answer.
Miaka had gone back to her world and supposedly I was so depressed that I ate a plate.
That’s not how it happened folks.
Here’s the real truth:
When Miaka went back to her world I realized something. I was all out of food! So for days I wandered around numbly trying to ignore the pain in my stomach.
Then one day it came to me: Why not try a plate?
After all, it was the only thing that Miaka had left uneaten and I was starving.
So…. I picked up one of Hotohori’s plates and took a big bite out of it.
And chewed.
To my surprise it tasted good!
Better than good in fact.
It was the best thing that had ever passed through my lips.
At that moment Nuriko walked in looked at me funny and said “That’s a plate dummy.”
Gods, Hotohori had a long talk with me about eating plates that night.
I could absolutely not understand why he could not taste how wonderful the plates were.
He is such an idiot.
Plates are the food of the gods.
It didn’t help that Nuriko listened to the entire conversation between Hotohori and me.
Laughing his head off the entire time I might add.
I’m hungry now.
Got to go eat some more plates.
Even though Hotohori has banned me from eating plates.
He was saying something about my insides getting torn apart.
I didn’t understand that.
Plates are good for you.
Ja ne!
