i come bearing more dungeon meshi. based on the picture below the cut
image ids: five images in a row showing a conversation between marcille and chilchuck with falin and laios watching in the background.
marcille looks down at chil curiously asking "wait so you're into blondes? your wife wasn't even blonde..." chilchuck looks away saying "yeah, i guess."
marcille thinks "the first blonde i think of is.. no!!!" with a thought bubble of falin above her. she's drawn poorly and shocked
marcille then chases chilchuck with her staff out in front of her possibly trying to hook the ring over his head, screaming "EUUUUWWW !! EUWWWWW stay AWAY from FALIN!!!! KYAAAAA!!!"
it cuts to falin standing next to laios with a blank expression on her face. laios has his eyes closed deep in thought with a thought bubble with a lot of text. fully it reads "during copulation, some animals bite the other to hold them down to ensure potential fertilization. if a cockatrice or basilisk did this, would they turn the other to stone or is their own species immune to the petrification thing..?"
falin turns to laios and asks "are we blonde" with no expression on her face. he looks at her and says "idk. cheesecake". falin replies "cheesecake"
You're burning rice now, and the vegetables you sauté only come out half-cooked
You're almost afraid to go into the kitchen at all because that was your mother's domain, not yours
You don't want to dirty more dishes
You don't want to waste more ingredients
How does this appliance work? Where's the instructions? Why aren't they clear enough?
You can't dice tomatoes; they squish into pulp and you have to toss them
You can't make bread; it's too dense, too hard, and you can't make yourself eat it, even though you feel obligated to
You're afraid to turn the beater on, because remember last time? Where you messed up?
It gets better
Someday, you'll make your best friend a bunch of mini quiches so she has a quick breakfast whenever she wants
Someday, you'll make double servings of your favorite food from memory
Someday, you'll accidentally make gelatin that's still got heat from the last time that pan cooked peppers, and you'll learn a little more about how spice works
Someday, you'll improvise a recipe you've never even tried unaltered before, and you'll make a perfect pumpkin cheesecake
And the cookies will be a little too hard, and you'll lament not eating them as dough
And you'll forget about the half & half you asked for, and have no idea what you want to do with it
And you'll linger on your failures less and less, because that cheesecake turned out perfectly
i havent drawn cookies in a while but i love this lil guy he is so cute to me... basque cheesecake flavor anubis puppy.. w pretty long hair.. (his kr voice is so cedric🤧
group of 8 or so guys go out to get dinner together, all of them hugely pregnant and waddling, so of course they get put in the biggest booth in the restaurant (one of those corner ones). they just barely manage to all fit comfortably, especially with each man's belly being so heavy and huge that it forces their legs apart. when someone who's not sitting on the outside has to get up, for whatever reason, each person before them has to slide down to the entrance and get to their feet, their massive bellies slowing them down. they order a massive amount of food and eat every bit, making their already hugely swollen bellies swell even further, visibly bigger than they had been when they'd arrived. their clothes, all of which had originally fit very well before theyd gotten their food, stand no chance of containing such taut bellies that are packed full of both babies AND food — t shirts and hoodies are riding up over popped belly buttons, and everyone wearing a button down has lost at least two buttons. and not only that, but they've all eaten so much that they're stuck in the booth. they'd all had plenty of room between their bellies and the table at the start but now each man is so massive that his obscenely pregnant belly presses into the table. some have moved so their bellies are underneath the table so it doesnt uncomfortably dig into the exposed flesh of their giant bumps, and now their ample breasts are resting on the table, cleavage on display or straining at the buttons of their shirts. except for the two at either side of the entrance — they were already so obscenely pregnant to start with that they'd had to sit sideways, their bellies too large to squeeze between the booth and the table, but they've eaten so much that they can't even move to let anyoneout. so they all decide to order dessert as well :)
Stanley, why are you looking at me like that?
["...You are wearing a skirt."] And?? Are you suggesting that MEN cannot wear such articles of clothing? How patriarchal of you.

WAITT are pato and alex going to get together in a lesson in breaking because.. idk they're just so dear to me <3 i originally thought he might end up witu david, but honestly david seems more like a little brother he forcefully adopted
…maybe 🤭
Like, eventually yes, but also it’s so far down the line tbh. I just like working seven hundred steps ahead. But yes, their plot line is outlined and happening.
And yeah, David’s 100% just the little bro he’s forcefully bringing to the function. They’re fighting for control of the aux chord and have so many inside jokes that Esteban’s sitting in the backseat of that car feeling increasingly confused.
Anyway, I like to think of the Alex/Pato dynamic in alib as something like this:
