  147. Silvanos nods their head emphatically.
  148.  
  149. Silvanos nods their head enthusiastically.
  150.  
  151. You say, "Fa, ahem, Lord Crumkane, is a Fourth Circle Divine who is well known and widely loved for His invention of the culinary arts, heretofore unknown to the Divine, who had no mortal needs as you or I do."

  192.  
  193. Silvanos coughs softly.
  194.  
  195. With a trilling chirp, Couturier Silvanos Lunarose, Herbal Connoisseur says, "Like taint things are not their original things."

  205. You say, "Despite the sad fate of those fae, Lord Crumkane takes great pride in His creations, and He delights in sharing them with anyone who asks. I keep jealous guard over our dear gummibears but that is my prerogative, and not His request."

  222.  
  223. "Heh heh heh" Silvanos chuckles.
  224.  
  225. You say, "Take joy in whatever you do. Take pride in the fine work you do. Always look for something new and wonderful to have and to share."

  228.  
  229. Silvanos sucks thoughtfully on their teeth.
  230.

  280.  
  281. You say, "While I do draw parallels between the ingenuity of my creation of ur'cuisine and His sweetness, I note that it is intolerable to cause such suffering to another."

  301. Silvanos nods their head emphatically.
  302.  
  303. Looking a little uncomfortable, you say, "He has not spoken directly on the topic, but I am supremely confident that He frowns on such practices. To end a life, a loving, laughing life, for personal satisfaction seems... to contravene the sanctity of the pursuit of pleasure."

  320.  
  321. You say, "He has eaten peep chili, so I doubt He minds overmuch."
  322.  
  323. With a trilling chirp, Couturier Silvanos Lunarose, Herbal Connoisseur says, "Or those on that bubble, so."
  324.  
  325. Comprehension flashes across Silvanos's face.
  326.  
  327. With a trilling chirp, Couturier Silvanos Lunarose, Herbal Connoisseur says, "Right, He did."

  347. Silvanos's mouth turns up as their face breaks into a smile.
  348.  
  349. With a trilling chirp, Couturier Silvanos Lunarose, Herbal Connoisseur says, "Sure?"

  351. The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.
  352.

  383.  
  384. Silvanos stares implacably at a melting-pot platter of marshmallow fondue.
  385.  
  386. With a trilling chirp, Couturier Silvanos Lunarose, Herbal Connoisseur says, "When did I pick this up."
  387.
