[ This video is being brought to you all live from... the rooftop of Velvet Lust. Huh. ]

Velvet Lust employees and regulars, I've got a question for you. If I were to add onto the place... what would you want?

The rest of you, what's your thoughts on bananas?

[ That last one can't be a serious question, right? ]

Actual bananas, as in the fruit, or is that a euphemism?

[black_black_heart]

Why not go for all three?

[ Yep, three, not two. He did that on purpose, you bet he did. ]

I admit, I know the average person's typical opinions on the latter two and am honestly just bored by them.

So, mostly the first.

[stairsbro]

You're bored by dicks?

[black_black_heart]

I mean, obviously.

[stairsbro]

I don't get what you're doing here, man.

[black_black_heart]

Waiting on an opinion, mostly.

I'd give bananas a 7.5/10 as far as ingredients go. Not my favorite in terms of flavor, but they've got a lot of properties that can be utilized in cooking that people don't often take advantage of. They're very useful as a binding agent when it comes to vegetarian dishes and because they have a high liquid content, it makes them very easy to transform into different textures at a rapid rate. Unfortunately, they also have an affect on other ingredients in storage so they're not the easiest to keep in a restaurant setting, which is why you rarely see dishes with actual bananas except in restaurants that focus on fruit-based dishes like American-style breakfasts or smoothies. They have a fast usage rate at restaurants like that, so it doesn't matter that bananas are more likely to rapidly ripen fruits around them since they're going to be used within a day in most cases.

[ Have a laugh, if a slightly delighted one. And slightly confused, because he's an okay cook but daaaaaamn, lady, you're talking cooking rocket scence here to him. ]

Well, I did ask! So do you use them a lot, yourself?

[gastronomics]

Sometimes. I try to use a wide variety of ingredients.

They're perfect for questionable imagery.

[Not an ounce of shame or regret in that answer.]

But they taste alright too, I guess.

[black_black_heart]

What questionable imagery? I have no idea what you're on about.

[ Please enjoy some salt. This particular fruit owns the one bloody gay bar around. It's phallic, you say? Tannusen had never noticed. ]

What about the color, sparklepants.

[orlokbutterfly]

[The salt is completely ignored, probably because Gale is pretty flaming himself. Plus he just thinks he's hilarious... even when at times he's really not.]

It's one of the better yellow colors. But I'm more one for a nice shade of purple, m'self.

Yellow would look terrible for sparkle pants though.

[black_black_heart]

Terrible? That's just quitter talk, right there.

[orlokbutterfly]

Hey, I'm no quitter. I'm just a fashionista.

[And he'll do a pretend hairflip just for good measure.]

[black_black_heart]

My condolences.

Served ala flambe or next to a chocolate fountain.

I hear however you can use them in certain mixed drinks as well.

Of course, this all depends on what you plan on doing with said banana.

[black_black_heart]

That all sounds very fancy for bananas.

[acheat]

Anything can be fancy with some imagination and effort.

[He has personal experience, he's traveled with a decidedly unfancy assassin.]

I am curious, are you just idly wondering about bananas?

[black_black_heart]

They've been on my mind lately.

[ Secretly ordering several hundred banana costumes can do that to a person. ]

Maybe I'm just a fan of fruits.

[acheat]

I'd suggest the flambe then.

Though if you're in a banana craving pinch, frying them works too.

[He's sort of figuring it's totally deeper than someone want some goddamn bananas right now.

[black_black_heart]

[ What could you possibly mean Jarlaxle? Tannusen is an innocent angel!

...Just like any other cat! ]

I'll keep that in mind.

[ FIND OUT WHEN EVERYONE ELSE DOES, SUCKER. ]

[shy_mage]

Th-They're squishy and sweet.

[Deep thoughts on bananas.]

[black_black_heart]

[ Bracken is A Good, one of only a few respondents so far to give him what he actually asked for! ]

They are, aren't they? Do you like them?

[shy_mage]

[After a the slightest pause, he nodded.]

Th-They're pretty good alone and in other things. L-Like... Like banana pudding.

[black_black_heart]

Good points! Thank you, Bracken.

[shy_mage]

S-Sure!

[No idea what he did, but he was happy to help.]

Is it always about food to you?

[Because every time they speak, she swears it's about food. Or at least food is always involved.]

[black_black_heart]

[ And for the first time, it's not in text. She gets to see his lazy smile at the question. ]

What can I say? Oral fixation.

[moviemagic]

You must be one of those people. Those who have a weird obsession with food. Like... extremely weird.

[black_black_heart]

You caught me.

[ Complete with putting his hands up like he's under arrest. The phone's propped up on... something. ]

I'm so obsessed and also influential, I make my housemates eat weird shit.

[moviemagic]

Hey, being able to make people do things can be a good thing. Makes you a good leader.

Just never abuse the power.

[black_black_heart]

Really it just makes me really good at pinning someone to the kitchen floor and shoving weird food down their throats. In the dark. At three in the morning. Which, now that I think of it, might explain some things.

[ Pooka. ]

[moviemagic]

That's called forcing someone to eat some thing. That's not at all being convincing.

[black_black_heart]

[ Tannusen makes a see-saw gesture with his free hand. ]

Six of one, half a dozen of the other.

[moviemagic]

In some cases it's none in one hand.
